Leviticus 4:14-24

14 when the sin in which they have sinned is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for a sin offering, and bring it before the Tent of Meeting.
15 The Zakenim of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the LORD; and the bull shall be killed before the LORD.
16 The anointed Kohen shall bring of the blood of the bull to the Tent of Meeting:
17 and the Kohen shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, before the veil.
18 He shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the Tent of Meeting; and the rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
19 All its fat he shall take from it, and burn it on the altar.
20 Thus shall he do with the bull; as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so shall he do with this; and the Kohen shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.
21 He shall carry forth the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is the sin offering for the assembly.
22 "'When a ruler sins, and unwittingly does any one of all the things which the LORD his God has commanded not to be done, and is guilty;
23 if his sin, in which he has sinned, is made known to him, he shall bring as his offering a goat, a male without blemish.
24 He shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before the LORD. It is a sin offering.
