Numbers 15:24-34

24 If it was unintentional and no one else knows about it, the whole community must sacrifice a young bull as a burnt offering, a soothing aroma to the LORD, along with the proper grain and wine offerings, and a male goat as an offering for sin.
25 The priest will make peace with the LORD for the whole community of Israel. Then they will be forgiven because the wrongdoing was unintentional and they brought these two offerings to the LORD for their sin: an offering by fire and an offering for sin.
26 So the whole community of Israel will be forgiven, including foreigners who are living among them, since all the people were involved in the unintentional wrongdoing.
27 "If one person unintentionally does something wrong, a one-year-old female goat must be sacrificed as an offering for sin.
28 The priest will offer the sacrifice to make peace with the LORD for that person, and that person will be forgiven.
29 You must give the same instructions to everyone who does something wrong unintentionally, whether they are native-born Israelites or not.
30 "But any native-born Israelite or foreigner who deliberately does something wrong insults the LORD and must be excluded from the people.
31 That person has despised the word of the LORD and broken the LORD's command. He must be excluded completely. He remains guilty."
32 While the Israelites were in the desert, they found a man gathering wood on the day of worship.
33 Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole community.
34 They kept him in custody until they decided what to do with him.
