"'If an individual among the people commits a sin inadvertently, doing something against any of the mitzvot of ADONAI concerning things which should not be done, he is guilty.
28
If the sin he committed becomes known to him, he is to bring as his offering a female goat without defect for the sin he committed,
29
lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter the sin offering in the place of burnt offerings.
30
The cohen is to take some of its blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. All its remaining blood he is to pour out at the base of the altar.
31
All its fat he is to remove, as the fat is removed from the sacrifice for peace offerings; and the cohen is to make it go up in smoke on the altar as a fragrant aroma for ADONAI. Thus the cohen will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.
32
"'If he brings a lamb as his sin offering, he is to bring a female without defect,
33
lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter it as a sin offering in the place where they slaughter burnt offerings.
34
The cohen is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. All its remaining blood he is to pour out at the base of the altar.
35
All its fat he is to remove, as the fat of a lamb is removed from the sacrifice for peace offerings; and the cohen is to make it go up in smoke on the altar on top of the offerings for ADONAI made by fire. Thus the cohen will make atonement for him in regard to the sin he committed, and he will be forgiven.
