The Sin Offering

1 The LORD said to Moses, 2 "Say to the Israelites: 'When anyone sins unintentionally¹ and does what is forbidden in any of the LORD's commands²-- 3 " 'If the anointed priest³ sins,⁴ bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the LORD a young bull⁵ without defect⁶ as a sin offering⁷ for the sin he has committed.⁸ 4 He is to present the bull at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD.⁹ He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before the LORD. 5 Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull's blood¹⁰ and carry it into the Tent of Meeting. 6 He is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle¹¹ some of it seven times before the LORD,¹² in front of the curtain of the sanctuary.¹³
