Leviticus 4:1-7

New King James Version

The Sin Offering

4 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ² “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ^(A)‘If a person sins ^[a]unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and does any of them, ^3 (B)if the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, then let him offer to the Lord for his sin which he has sinned ^(C)a young bull without blemish as a ^(D)sin offering. ⁴ He shall bring the bull ^(E)to the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and kill the bull before the Lord. ⁵ Then the anointed priest ^(F)shall take some of the bull’s blood and bring it to the tabernacle of meeting. ⁶ The priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before the Lord, in front of the ^(G)veil of the sanctuary. ⁷ And the priest shall ^(H)put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of meeting; and he shall pour ^(I)the remaining blood of the bull at the base of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
