Leviticus 4

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Say to the sons of Israel: The soul which will have sinned through ignorance, and concerning any of the commandments of the Lord that he instructed not to be done, if anything at all has been done:

3if the priest, who is anointed, will have sinned, causing the people to commit a transgression, he shall offer to the Lord for his sin an immaculate calf.

4And he shall lead it to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony in the sight of the Lord. And he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it to the Lord.

5Likewise, he shall take from the blood of the calf, carrying it into the tabernacle of the testimony,

6and having dipped his finger into the blood, he shall sprinkle it seven times in the sight of the Lord, opposite the veil of the Sanctuary.

7And he shall place some of the same blood over the horns of the altar of most pleasing incense to the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the testimony. Then he shall pour out the remainder of the blood at the base of the altar of holocaust at the entrance of the tabernacle.

8And, on behalf of the sin, he shall take the fat of the calf, both that which covers the vital organs and all that is interior,

9the two little kidneys, and the mesh that is on them near the sides, and the fat of the liver with the little kidneys,

10just as it is taken from the calf of the sacrifice of peace offerings. And he shall burn them upon the altar of holocaust.

11Yet truly, the skin and all the flesh, with the head and the feet, and the intestines and the dung,

12and the remainder of the body, he shall carry away, beyond the camp, to the clean place where the ashes are usually poured out. And he shall burn them upon a stack of wood. There, in the place where the ashes have been poured out, they will be burned.

13But if all the crowd of Israel will have been ignorant, and through inexperience will have done what is contrary to the commandment of the Lord,

14and afterwards shall understand their sin: they shall offer a calf on behalf of their sin, and they shall lead it to the door of the tabernacle.

15And the elders of the people shall place their hands upon its head in the sight of the Lord. And when the calf has been immolated in the sight of the Lord,

16the priest who is anointed shall carry some of its blood into the tabernacle of the testimony.

17and he shall dip his finger in it, sprinkling it seven times opposite the veil.

18And he shall place some of the same blood on the horns of the altar, which is in the presence of the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony. But the remainder of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of holocaust, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

19And he shall take all its fat and burn it upon the altar,

20doing so with this calf in the same manner as he did before. And while the priest is praying for them, the Lord will forgive them.

21But the calf itself he shall carry away, beyond the camp, and he shall also burn it, just as with the previous calf, because it is for the sin of the multitude.

22If a leader will have sinned, and through ignorance will have done one of the many things which the law of the Lord prohibits,

23and afterwards he shall understand his sin: he shall offer an immaculate he-goat from among the goats, as a sacrifice to the Lord.

24And he shall place his hand upon its head. And when he will have immolated it, in the place where the holocaust is usually slain, in the sight of the Lord, because it is for sin,

25the priest shall dip his finger in the blood of the victim for sin, touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, and pouring out the remainder at its base.

26Yet truly, the fat he shall burn upon it, just as is usually done with the victims of peace offerings. And the priest shall pray for him and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.

27But if a soul from the people of the land will have sinned through ignorance, so as to have done any of those things that the law of the Lord prohibits, and so commit a transgression,

28and he shall realize his sin: he shall offer an immaculate she-goat.

29And he shall place his hand upon the head of the victim which is for sin. And he shall immolate it in the place of the holocaust.

30And the priest shall take some of the blood with his finger, and touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, he shall pour out the remainder at its base.

31But taking away all the fat, just as it is usually taken away from the victims of peace offerings, he shall burn it upon the altar as a sweet odor to the Lord. And he shall pray for him, and he shall be released from it.

32But if instead he will offer from the flock a victim for his sin, specifically, an immaculate female sheep:

33he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it in the place where the victims of holocausts are usually slain.

34And the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, and touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, he shall pour out the remainder at its base.

35Likewise, all of the fat shall be taken away, just as the fat of the ram, which is immolated for peace offerings, is usually taken away. And he shall burn it upon the altar as an incense of the Lord. And he shall pray for him and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.

Leviticus 4

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Say to the children of Israel: The soul that sinneth through ignorance, and doth any thing concerning any of the commandments of the Lord, which he commanded not to be done:

3If the priest that is anointed shall sin, making the people to offend, he shall offer to the Lord for his sin a calf without blemish.

4And he shall bring it to the door of the testimony before the Lord: and shall put his hand upon the head thereof, and shall sacrifice it to the Lord.

5He shall take also of the blood of the calf: and carry it into the tabernacle of the testimony.

6And having dipped his finger in the blood, he shall sprinkle with it seven times before the Lord, before the veil of the sanctuary.

7And he shall put some of the same blood upon the horns of the altar of the sweet incense most acceptable to the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the testimony. And he shall pour all the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar of holocaust in the entry of the tabernacle.

8And he shall take off the fat of the calf for the sin offering, as well that which covereth the entrails, as all the inwards:

9The two little kidneys, and the caul that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the fat of the liver with the little kidneys:

10As it is taken off from the calf of the sacrifice of peace offerings. And he shall burn them upon the altar of holocaust.

11But the skin and all the flesh with the head and the feet and the bowels and the dung:

12And the rest of the body, he shall carry forth without the camp into a clean place where the ashes are wont to be poured out: and he shall burn them upon a pile of wood. They shall be burnt in the place where the ashes are poured out.

13And if all the multitude of Israel shall be ignorant, and through ignorance shall do that which is against the commandment of the Lord,

14And afterwards shall understand their sin: they shall offer for their sin a calf, and shall bring it to the door of the tabernacle.

15And the ancients of the people shall put their hands upon the head thereof before the Lord. And the calf being immolated in the sight of the Lord:

16The priest that is anointed shall carry of the blood into the tabernacle of the testimony.

17And shall dip his finger in it and sprinkle it seven times before the veil.

18And he shall put of the same blood on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord, in the tabernacle of the testimony. And the rest of the blood he shall pour at the foot of the altar of holocaust, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

19And all the fat thereof he shall take off, and shall burn it upon the altar:

20Doing so with this calf, as he did also with that before. And the priest praying for them, the Lord will be merciful unto them.

21But the calf itself he shall carry forth without the camp, and shall burn it as he did the former calf: because it is for the sin of the multitude.

22If a prince shall sin, and through ignorance do any one of the things that the law of the Lord forbiddeth,

23And afterwards shall come to know his sin: he shall offer a buck goat without blemish, a sacrifice to the Lord.

24And he shall put his hand upon the head thereof: and when he hath immolated it in the place where the holocaust is wont to be slain before the Lord, because it is for sin,

25The priest shall dip his finger in the blood of the victim for sin, touching therewith the horns of the altar of holocaust, and pouring out the rest at the foot thereof.

26But the fat he shall burn upon it, as is wont to be done with the victims of peace offerings. And the priest shall pray for him, and for his sin: and it shall be forgiven him.

27And if any one of the people of the land shall sin through ignorance, doing any of those things that by the law of the Lord are forbidden, and offending,

28And shall come to know his sin: he shall offer a she goat without blemish.

29And he shall put his hand upon the head of the victim that is for sin: and shall immolate it in the place of the holocaust.

30And the priest shall take of the blood with his finger, and shall touch the horns of the altar of holocaust: and shall pour out the rest at the foot thereof.

31But taking off all the fat, as is wont to be taken away of the victims of peace offerings, he shall burn it upon the altar, for a sweet savour to the Lord: and he shall pray for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

32But if he offer of the flock a victim for his sin, to wit, an ewe without blemish:

33He shall put his hand upon the head thereof, and shall immolate it in the place where the victims of holocausts are wont to be slain.

34And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and shall touch the horns of the altar of holocaust: and the rest he shall pour out at the foot thereof.

35All the fat also he shall take off, as the fat of the ram that is offered for peace offerings is wont to be taken away: and shall burn it upon the altar, for a burnt sacrifice of the Lord. And he shall pray for him and his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
