La ley de las ofrendas por el pecado

4 El Señor habló a Moisés, diciendo: 2 Habla a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: «Si alguien peca inadvertidamente en cualquiera de las cosas que el Señor ha mandado que no se hagan, y hace alguna de ellas(A); 3 si el que peca es el sacerdote ungido, trayendo culpa sobre el pueblo(B), que entonces ofrezca al Señor un novillo[a] sin defecto como ofrenda por el pecado, por el pecado que ha cometido[b]. 4 Traerá el novillo a la puerta de la tienda de reunión delante del Señor, pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza del novillo y lo degollará delante del Señor(C). 5 Luego el sacerdote ungido tomará de la sangre del novillo y la traerá a la tienda de reunión(D), 6 y el sacerdote mojará su dedo en la sangre y rociará de la sangre siete veces delante del Señor, frente al velo del santuario(E). 7 El sacerdote pondrá también de esa sangre sobre los cuernos del altar del incienso aromático que está en la tienda de reunión delante del Señor(F), y derramará toda la sangre del novillo al pie del altar del holocausto que está a la puerta de la tienda de reunión. 8 Y quitará[c] toda la grasa del novillo de la ofrenda por el pecado: la grasa que cubre las entrañas, toda la grasa que está sobre las entrañas(G), 9 los dos riñones con la grasa que está sobre ellos y[d] sobre los lomos, y el lóbulo del[e] hígado, que quitará con los riñones(H) 10 (de la manera que se quita del buey del sacrificio de las ofrendas de paz); y el sacerdote los quemará sobre el altar del holocausto. 11 Pero la piel del novillo y toda su carne, con su cabeza, sus patas, sus entrañas y su estiércol(I), 12 es decir[f], todo el resto del novillo, lo llevará a un lugar limpio fuera del campamento, donde se echan las cenizas[g], y lo quemará al fuego sobre la leña(J); lo quemará donde se echan las cenizas[h].

13 »Si es toda la congregación de Israel la que comete error, y el asunto pasa desapercibido a[i] la asamblea, y hacen cualquiera de las cosas que el Señor ha mandado que no se hagan[j], haciéndose así culpables(K), 14 cuando se llegue a saber el pecado que[k] ellos han cometido[l], entonces la asamblea ofrecerá un novillo del[m] ganado como ofrenda por el pecado(L), y lo traerán delante de la tienda de reunión. 15 Los ancianos de la congregación pondrán sus manos(M) sobre la cabeza del novillo delante del Señor, y el novillo será degollado delante del Señor(N). 16 Entonces el sacerdote ungido traerá sangre del novillo a la tienda de reunión; 17 mojará el sacerdote su dedo en la sangre y la rociará siete veces delante del Señor, frente al velo(O). 18 Pondrá sangre sobre los cuernos del altar que está delante del Señor en[n] la tienda de reunión, y derramará toda la sangre al pie del altar del holocausto, que está a la puerta de la tienda de reunión(P). 19 Le quitará toda la grasa(Q) y la quemará sobre el altar, 20 y hará con el novillo lo mismo que hizo con el novillo de la ofrenda por el pecado(R); hará lo mismo con él. Así el sacerdote hará expiación por ellos, y ellos serán perdonados(S). 21 Sacará el novillo fuera del campamento y lo quemará como quemó el primer novillo; es la ofrenda por el pecado de la asamblea(T).

22 »Cuando es un jefe(U) el que peca e inadvertidamente hace cualquiera de las cosas que el Señor su Dios ha mandado que no se hagan(V), haciéndose así culpable, 23 y[o] se le hace saber el pecado que ha cometido[p](W), traerá como su ofrenda un macho cabrío[q](X) sin defecto(Y). 24 Pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza del macho cabrío y lo degollará en el lugar donde se degüella el holocausto delante del Señor; es una ofrenda por el pecado. 25 Entonces el sacerdote tomará con su dedo de la sangre de la ofrenda por el pecado y la pondrá sobre los cuernos del altar del holocausto, y derramará el resto de la sangre al pie del altar del holocausto(Z). 26 Y quemará toda la grasa sobre el altar(AA) como en el caso de la grasa del sacrificio de las ofrendas de paz. Así el sacerdote hará expiación por él, por su pecado, y será perdonado(AB).

27 »Y si es alguno[r] del pueblo[s] el que peca inadvertidamente(AC), haciendo cualquiera de las cosas que el Señor ha mandado que no se hagan, y se hace así culpable, 28 y[t] se le hace saber el pecado que ha cometido[u](AD), traerá como su ofrenda una cabra(AE) sin defecto(AF) por el pecado que ha cometido[v]. 29 Pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza de la ofrenda(AG) por el pecado y la degollará[w](AH) en el lugar del holocausto. 30 Entonces el sacerdote tomará con su dedo de la sangre y la pondrá sobre los cuernos del altar del holocausto(AI), y derramará todo el resto de la sangre al pie del altar(AJ). 31 Luego quitará toda la grasa, de la manera que se quitó la grasa del sacrificio de las ofrendas de paz(AK), y el sacerdote la quemará sobre el altar como aroma agradable para el Señor(AL). Así hará el sacerdote expiación por él y será[x] perdonado.

32 »Pero si trae un cordero como su ofrenda por el pecado, que traiga[y] una hembra sin defecto(AM). 33 Pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza de la ofrenda por el pecado(AN) y la degollará como ofrenda por el pecado en el lugar donde se degüella el holocausto(AO). 34 Entonces el sacerdote tomará con su dedo de la sangre de la ofrenda por el pecado y la pondrá sobre los cuernos del altar del holocausto(AP), y derramará todo el resto de la sangre al pie del altar(AQ). 35 Luego quitará toda la grasa de la misma manera que se quita la grasa del cordero del sacrificio de las ofrendas de paz; y el sacerdote la quemará en el altar con[z] las ofrendas encendidas para el Señor. Así hará el sacerdote expiación por él, por el pecado que ha cometido[aa], y será perdonado(AR).

The Sin Offering

4 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘When anyone sins unintentionally(A) and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands(B)—

3 “‘If the anointed priest(C) sins,(D) bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the Lord a young bull(E) without defect(F) as a sin offering[a](G) for the sin he has committed.(H) 4 He is to present the bull at the entrance to the tent of meeting before the Lord.(I) He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it there before the Lord. 5 Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull’s blood(J) and carry it into the tent of meeting. 6 He is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle(K) some of it seven times before the Lord,(L) in front of the curtain of the sanctuary.(M) 7 The priest shall then put some of the blood on the horns(N) of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the tent of meeting. The rest of the bull’s blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar(O) of burnt offering(P) at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 8 He shall remove all the fat(Q) from the bull of the sin offering—all the fat that is connected to the internal organs, 9 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the long lobe of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys(R)— 10 just as the fat is removed from the ox[b](S) sacrificed as a fellowship offering.(T) Then the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.(U) 11 But the hide of the bull and all its flesh, as well as the head and legs, the internal organs and the intestines(V)— 12 that is, all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp(W) to a place ceremonially clean,(X) where the ashes(Y) are thrown, and burn it(Z) there in a wood fire on the ash heap.(AA)

13 “‘If the whole Israelite community sins unintentionally(AB) and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, even though the community is unaware of the matter, when they realize their guilt 14 and the sin they committed becomes known, the assembly must bring a young bull(AC) as a sin offering(AD) and present it before the tent of meeting. 15 The elders(AE) of the community are to lay their hands(AF) on the bull’s head(AG) before the Lord, and the bull shall be slaughtered before the Lord.(AH) 16 Then the anointed priest is to take some of the bull’s blood(AI) into the tent of meeting. 17 He shall dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle(AJ) it before the Lord(AK) seven times in front of the curtain. 18 He is to put some of the blood(AL) on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord(AM) in the tent of meeting. The rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar(AN) of burnt offering at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 19 He shall remove all the fat(AO) from it and burn it on the altar,(AP) 20 and do with this bull just as he did with the bull for the sin offering. In this way the priest will make atonement(AQ) for the community, and they will be forgiven.(AR) 21 Then he shall take the bull outside the camp(AS) and burn it as he burned the first bull. This is the sin offering for the community.(AT)

22 “‘When a leader(AU) sins unintentionally(AV) and does what is forbidden in any of the commands of the Lord his God, when he realizes his guilt 23 and the sin he has committed becomes known, he must bring as his offering a male goat(AW) without defect. 24 He is to lay his hand on the goat’s head and slaughter it at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered before the Lord.(AX) It is a sin offering.(AY) 25 Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar(AZ) of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.(BA) 26 He shall burn all the fat on the altar as he burned the fat of the fellowship offering. In this way the priest will make atonement(BB) for the leader’s sin, and he will be forgiven.(BC)

27 “‘If any member of the community sins unintentionally(BD) and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, when they realize their guilt 28 and the sin they have committed becomes known, they must bring as their offering(BE) for the sin they committed a female goat(BF) without defect. 29 They are to lay their hand on the head(BG) of the sin offering(BH) and slaughter it at the place of the burnt offering.(BI) 30 Then the priest is to take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering(BJ) and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. 31 They shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the fellowship offering, and the priest shall burn it on the altar(BK) as an aroma pleasing to the Lord.(BL) In this way the priest will make atonement(BM) for them, and they will be forgiven.(BN)

32 “‘If someone brings a lamb(BO) as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect.(BP) 33 They are to lay their hand on its head and slaughter it(BQ) for a sin offering(BR) at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered.(BS) 34 Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.(BT) 35 They shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the lamb of the fellowship offering, and the priest shall burn it on the altar(BU) on top of the food offerings presented to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.

Laws for Sin Offerings

4 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, (A)If anyone sins unintentionally[a] in any of the Lord's commandments (B)about things not to be done, and does any one of them, 3 if it is the anointed priest who (C)sins, thus bringing guilt on the people, then he shall offer for the sin that he has committed (D)a bull from the herd without blemish to the Lord for a sin offering. 4 He shall bring the bull to the (E)entrance of the tent of meeting before the Lord and lay his hand on the head of the bull and kill the bull before the Lord. 5 And the anointed priest (F)shall take some of the blood of the bull and bring it into the tent of meeting, 6 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and (G)sprinkle part of the blood seven times before the Lord in front of the veil of the sanctuary. 7 And the priest (H)shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense before the Lord that is in the tent of meeting, and (I)all the rest of the blood of the bull he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 8 And all the fat of the bull of the sin offering he shall remove from it, (J)the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails 9 (K)and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys 10 (just as these are taken from the ox of the sacrifice of the peace offerings); and the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering. 11 But (L)the skin of the bull and all its flesh, with its head, its legs, its entrails, and its dung— 12 all the rest of the bull—he shall carry (M)outside the camp to a clean place, to the ash heap, and shall (N)burn it up on a fire of wood. On the ash heap it shall be burned up.

13 (O)“If the whole congregation of Israel sins unintentionally[b] and (P)the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they do any one of the things that by the Lord's commandments ought not to be done, and they realize their guilt,[c] 14 (Q)when the sin which they have committed becomes known, the assembly shall offer a bull from the herd for a sin offering and bring it in front of the tent of meeting. 15 And the elders of the congregation (R)shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the Lord, and the bull shall be killed before the Lord. 16 Then (S)the anointed priest shall bring some of the blood of the bull into the tent of meeting, 17 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord in front of the veil. 18 And he shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is in the tent of meeting before the Lord, and the rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 19 And all its fat he shall take from it and burn on the altar. 20 Thus shall he do with the bull. As he did (T)with the bull of the sin offering, so shall he do with this. (U)And the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven. 21 And he shall carry the bull (V)outside the camp and burn it up as he burned the first bull; it is the sin offering for the assembly.

22 “When a leader sins, (W)doing unintentionally any one of all the things that by the commandments of the Lord his God ought not to be done, and realizes his guilt, 23 or (X)the sin which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring as his offering a goat, a male without blemish, 24 and (Y)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. 25 (Z)Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering. 26 And all its fat he shall burn on the altar, like (AA)the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings. So (AB)the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin, and he shall be forgiven.

27 “If (AC)anyone of the common people sins unintentionally in doing any one of the things that by the Lord's commandments ought not to be done, and realizes his guilt, 28 (AD)or the sin which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has committed. 29 (AE)And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill the sin offering in the place of burnt offering. 30 And the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out all the rest of its blood at the base of the altar. 31 And (AF)all its fat he shall remove, (AG)as the fat is removed from the peace offerings, and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a (AH)pleasing aroma to the Lord. (AI)And the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven.

32 “If he brings a lamb as his offering for a sin offering, he shall bring (AJ)a female without blemish 33 (AK)and lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering. 34 Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out all the rest of its blood at the base of the altar. 35 And all its fat he shall remove (AL)as the fat of the lamb is removed from the sacrifice of peace offerings, and the priest shall burn it on the altar, on top of the Lord's food offerings. (AM)And the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he has committed, and he shall be forgiven.
