LEVITICUS 4



The Sin Offering



1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 (Lev 4:27; Ps 19:12) Speak to the children of Israel, saying:

When a person sins unintentionally against any of the commandments

of the Lord that should not be done, and he violates one of them,

3 (Lev 4:14; 9:2) if the anointed priest sins, so as to bring guilt

on the people, he shall bring for his sin that he has committed

a bull without blemish to the Lord for a sin offering.

4 (Lev 1:3-4) He shall bring the bull to the opening of the tent

of meeting before the Lord, and he shall lay his hand on the bull's head

and slaughter the bull before the Lord.

5 (Lev 16:14; 4:16-17) The anointed priest shall take some

of the bull's blood and bring it into the tent of meeting.

6 The priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle

some of the blood seven times before the Lord in front of the veil

of the sanctuary.

7 (Lev 8:15; 9:9; 16:18) Then the priest shall put some of the blood

on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense before the Lord

which is in the tent of meeting, and shall pour the rest of the blood

of the bull at the base of the altar of the burnt offering which is

at the door of the tent of meeting.

8 (Lev 3:3-5) Then he shall remove all the fat of the bull that is

for the sin offering - the fat that covers the entrails - and all the fat

that is on the entrails,

9 (Lev 3:4) and the two kidneys with the fat that is above them,

which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver

which he shall remove with the kidneys,

10 just as these are removed from the bull of the peace sacrifice,

and the priest shall burn them on the altar of the burnt offering.

11 (Nu 19:5; Ex 29:14) The skin of the bull, and all its flesh,

with its head, its legs, its entrails, and its dung,

12 (Heb 13:11; Ex 29:14) all the rest of the bull,

he shall bring outside the camp to a ritually clean

("Clean: and "unclean" refer to ceremonial aspects of places,

objects, or people.) place at the ash pile and burn it on wood

with fire. It shall be burned on the ash heap.

13 (Lev 5:17; 5:2-5) If the whole congregation of Israel

commits an unintentional sin, and the matter is hidden

from the eyes of the assembly, and they do any one of the things

that by the commandments of the Lord should not be done,

and they are found guilty,

14 (Lev 4:3; 4:23) and the sin that they committed

against the commandment becomes known,

the congregation shall offer a bull for a sin offering,

and they will bring it before the tent of meeting.

15 (Lev 1:4) The elders of the congregation shall lay

their hands on the head of the bull before the Lord,

and the bull will be slaughtered before the Lord.

16 (Lev 4:5-12) The anointed priest shall bring

some of the bull's blood to the tent of meeting.

17 And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood

and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord in front of the veil.

18 He shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before

the Lord, which is in the tent of meeting, and he shall pour all the rest

of the blood at the base of the altar of the burnt offering that is

at the opening of the tent of meeting.

19 He shall remove all the fat from it and burn it on the altar.

20 (Nu 15:25; Heb 10:10-12) He shall do to this bull just

as he did to the bull of the sin offering;

this is what he will do to it.

And the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.

21 (Lev 16:15) He shall bring the bull outside the camp,

and he shall burn it just as he burned the first bull.

It is the sin offering of the congregation.

22 (Lev 4:2; 4:13) Whenever a leader sins,

and he does unintentionally any one of the things that

by the commandments of the Lord his God should not be done

and is found guilty,

23 (Lev 4:14) or his sin that he committed was made known to him,

he shall bring as his offering a male goat without blemish,

24 and he shall lay his hand on the head of the goat,

and he shall slaughter it in the place where they slaughter

the burnt offering before the Lord. It is a sin offering.

25 (Lev 4:7; 4:18) The priest shall take some of the blood

of the sin offering on his finger and put it on the horns

of the altar of the burnt offering, and he shall pour out its blood

at the base of the altar of the burnt offering.

26 (Lev 4:20; 3:5) And he shall burn all its fat on the altar,

like the fat of the peace sacrifice, and the priest shall make

atonement for him for his sin, and he shall be forgiven.

27 (Lev 4:2; Nu 15:27; Lev 4:13) If any one of the common people

should sin unintentionally by doing one of the things

that by the commandments of the Lord should not be done,

and is found guilty,

28 (Lev 4:23; 4:3; 4:32) or his sin that he committed

was made known to him, he shall bring as his offering

a female goat without blemish, for his sin that he committed.

29 (Lev 4:4; 4:24) He shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering,

and he shall slaughter the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.

30 (Lev 4:7; 4:25) The priest shall take some of its blood on his finger

and put it on the horns of the altar of the burnt offering,

and he shall pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar.

31 (Lev 4:26; 4:35; 1:9) And he shall remove all its fat,

just as the fat is removed from the peace sacrifice,

and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a pleasing aroma to the Lord,

and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven.

32 (Lev 4:28; 1Pe 2:22; 3:18) And if he brings a sheep for a sin offering,

he shall bring a female without blemish,

33 and lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and he shall

slaughter it for a sin offering in the place where they slaughter

the burnt offering.

34 (Lev 4:7; 4:25) The priest shall take some of the blood

of the sin offering on his finger and put it on the horns

of the altar of the burnt offering, and all the rest of its blood

he shall pour out at the base of the altar.

35 (Lev 4:26; 4:20) And he shall remove all the fat, just as

the fat of the sheep is removed from the peace sacrifice,

and the priest shall burn it on the altar as a food offering

to the Lord made by fire. And the priest shall make atonement

for his sin that he committed, and he shall be forgiven.
