Leviticus 4:11-21

11 pellem vero et omnes carnes cum capite et pedibus et intestinis et fimo

12 et reliquo corpore efferet extra castra in locum mundum ubi cineres effundi solent incendetque ea super lignorum struem quae in loco effusorum cinerum cremabuntur

13 quod si omnis turba Israhel ignoraverit et per inperitiam fecerit quod contra mandatum Domini est

14 et postea intellexerit peccatum suum offeret vitulum pro peccato adducetque eum ad ostium tabernaculi

15 et ponent seniores populi manus super caput eius coram Domino immolatoque vitulo in conspectu Domini

16 inferet sacerdos qui unctus est de sanguine eius in tabernaculum testimonii

17 tincto digito aspergens septies contra velum

18 ponetque de eodem sanguine in cornibus altaris quod est coram Domino in tabernaculo testimonii reliquum autem sanguinem fundet iuxta basim altaris holocaustorum quod est in ostio tabernaculi testimonii

19 omnemque eius adipem tollet et adolebit super altare

20 sic faciens et de hoc vitulo quomodo fecit et prius et rogante pro eis sacerdote propitius erit Dominus

21 ipsum autem vitulum efferet extra castra atque conburet sicut et priorem vitulum quia pro peccato est multitudinis
