Leviticus 4:13-21

New International Version

¹³ “‘If the whole Israelite community sins unintentionally^(A) 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^(B) as a sin offering^(C) and present it before the tent of meeting. ¹⁵ The elders^(D) of the community are to lay their hands^(E) on the bull’s head^(F) before the Lord, and the bull shall be slaughtered before the Lord.^{(G) 16} Then the anointed priest is to take some of the bull’s blood^(H) into the tent of meeting. ¹⁷ He shall dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle^(I) it before the Lord^(J) seven times in front of the curtain. ¹⁸ He is to put some of the blood^(K) on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord^(L) in the tent of meeting. The rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar^(M) of burnt offering at the entrance to the tent of meeting. ¹⁹ He shall remove all the fat^(N) from it and burn it on the altar,^{(O) 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^(P) for the community, and they will be forgiven.^{(Q) 21} Then he shall take the bull outside the camp^(R) and burn it as he burned the first bull. This is the sin offering for the community.^(S)
