Leviticus Chapter 4

Leviticus Chapter 4
1 Moreover the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel,
saying, If any shall sin through
ignorance, in any of the commandments
of the Lord, (which ought not to be done)
but shall do contrary to any of them,
3 If the priest that is anointed do sin
(according to the sin of the people) then
shall he offer, for his sin which he hath
sinned, a young bullock without blemish
unto the Lord for a sin offering,
4 And he shall bring the bullock unto the
door of the tabernacle of the
congregation before the Lord, and shall
put his hand upon the bullock’s head,
and kill the bullock before the Lord.
5 And the priest that is anointed shall
take of the bullock’s blood, and bring it
into the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 Then the priest shall dip his finger in
the blood, and sprinkle of the blood
seven times before the Lord, before the
veil of the sanctuary.
7 The priest also shall put some of the
blood before the Lord, upon the horns of
the altar of sweet incense, which is in
the tabernacle of the congregation, then
shall he pour all the rest of the blood of
the bullock at the foot of the altar of
burnt offering, which is at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation. 8 And he
shall take away all the fat of the bullock
for the sin offering: to wit, the fat that
covereth the inwards, and all the fat that
is about the inwards. 9 He shall take
away also the two kidneys, and the fat
that is upon them, and upon the flanks,
and the caul upon the liver with the
kidneys,
10 As it was taken away from the
bullock of the peace offerings, and the
priest shall burn them upon the altar of
burnt offering.
11 But the skin of the bullock, and all his
flesh, with his head, and his legs, and his
inwards, and his dung shall he bear out.
12 So he shall carry the whole bullock
out of the host unto a clean place, where
the ashes are poured, and shall burn him
on the wood in the fire: where the ashes
are cast out, shall he be burned.
13 And if the whole congregation of
Israel shall sin through ignorance, and
the thing be hid from the eyes of the
multitude, and have done against any of
the commandments of the Lord which
should not be done, and have offended:
14 When the sin which they have
committed shall be known, then the
congregation shall offer a young bullock
for the sin, and bring him before the
tabernacle of the congregation,
15 And the elders of the congregation
shall put their hands upon the head of the
bullock before the Lord, and he shall kill
the bullock before the Lord. 16 Then the
priest that is anointed, shall bring of the
bullock’s blood into the tabernacle of
the congregation,
17 And the priest shall dip his finger in
the blood, and sprinkle it seven times
before the Lord, even before the veil.
18 Also he shall put some of the blood
upon the horns of the altar, which is
before the Lord, that is in the tabernacle
of the congregation: then shall he pour
all the rest of the blood at the foot of the
altar of burnt offering, which is at the
door of the tabernacle of the
congregation,
19 And he shall take all his fat from him,
and burn it upon the altar. 20 And the
priest shall do with this bullock, as he
did with the bullock for his sin: so shall
he do with this: so the priest shall make
an atonement for them, and it shall be
forgiven them.
21 For he shall carry the bullock without
the host, and burn him as he burned the
first bullock: for it is an offering for the
sin of the congregation. 22 When a ruler
shall sin, and do through ignorance
against any of the commandments of the
Lord his God, which should not be done,
and shall offend,
23 If one show unto him his sin, which
he hath committed, then shall he bring
for his offering an he goat without
blemish,
24 And shall lay his hand upon the head
of the he goat, and kill it in the place
where he should kill the burnt offering
before the Lord: for it is a sin offering.
25 Then the priest shall take of the blood
of the sin offering with his finger, and
put it upon the horns of the burnt offering
altar, and shall pour the rest of his
blood at the foot of the burnt offering
altar,
26 And shall burn all his fat upon the
altar, as the fat of the peace offering: so
the priest shall make an atonement for
him, concerning his sin, and it shall be
forgiven him.
27 Likewise if any of the people of the
land shall sin through ignorance in doing
against any of the commandments of the
Lord, which should not be done, and
shall offend,
28 If one show him his sin which he hath
committed, then he shall bring for his
offering, a she goat without blemish for
his sin which he hath committed, 29 And
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the
sin offering, and slay the sin offering in
the place of burnt offering.
30 Then the priest shall take of the blood
thereof with his finger, and put it upon
the horns of the burnt offering altar, and
pour all the rest of the blood thereof at
the foot of the altar,
31 And shall take away all his fat, as the
fat of the peace offerings is taken away,
and the priest shall burn it upon the altar
for a sweet savor unto the Lord, and the
priest shall make an atonement for him,
and it shall be forgiven him.
32 And if he bring a lamb for his sin
offering, he shall bring a female without
blemish,
33 And shall lay his hand upon the head
of the sin offering, and he shall slay it
for a sin offering in the place where he
should kill the burnt offering. 34 Then
the priest shall take of the blood of the
sin offering with his finger, and put it
upon the horns of the burnt offering altar,
and shall pour all the rest of the blood
thereof at the foot of the altar.
35 And he shall take away all the fat
thereof, as the fat of the lamb of the
peace offerings is taken away: then the
priest shall burn it upon the altar with
the oblations of the Lord made by fire,
and the priest shall make an atonement
for him concerning his sin that he hath
committed, and it shall be forgiven him.
