Leviticus 4

¹²Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.

²⁷And if one of the common people sins unintentionally and does what is prohibited by any of the Lord’s commandments, he incurs guilt.

²²Now if you stray unintentionally and do not obey all these commandments that the Lord has spoken to Moses—

²³all that the Lord has commanded you through Moses from the day the Lord gave them and continuing through the generations to come—

⁷But only the high priest entered the second room, and then only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.

¹⁰Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be!

²⁷Jonathan, however, had not heard that his father had bound the people with the oath. So he reached out the end of the staff in his hand, dipped it into the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.

²He said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both without blemish, and present them before the Lord.

²⁷Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people; He sacrificed for sin once for all when He offered up Himself.

²⁸For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.

¹⁴when they become aware of the sin they have committed, then the assembly must bring a young bull as a sin offering and present it before the Tent of Meeting.

²¹God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

³⁵Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: 12 bulls for all Israel, 96 rams, 77 lambs, and a sin offering of 12 male goats. All this was a burnt offering to the Lord.

³That is why he is obligated to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people.

³If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present an unblemished male. He must bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for its acceptance before the Lord.

⁴He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.

²¹Then he is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to put them on the goat’s head and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man appointed for the task.

⁶We all like sheep have gone astray, each one has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid upon Him the iniquity of us all.

¹⁰You are to present the bull at the front of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on its head.

¹¹And you shall slaughter the bull before the Lord at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

¹⁸For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit,

²⁶Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. Then the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood, and until the end there will be war; desolations have been decreed.

¹⁴And he is to take some of the bull’s blood and sprinkle it with his finger on the east side of the mercy seat; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the mercy seat.

⁴Eleazar the priest is to take some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the Tent of Meeting.

¹⁶Then the anointed priest is to bring some of the bull’s blood into the Tent of Meeting,

¹⁷and he is to dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord in front of the veil.

¹⁹He is to sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites.

⁷But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

⁴Have seven priests carry seven rams’ horns in front of the ark. Then on the seventh day, march around the city seven times, while the priests blow the horns.

¹⁸And if after all this you will not obey Me, I will proceed to punish you sevenfold for your sins.

²⁸then I will walk in fury against you, and I, even I, will punish you sevenfold for your sins.

⁸After Joshua had spoken to the people, seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns before the Lord advanced and blew the horns, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them.

¹⁴And he is to take some of the bull’s blood and sprinkle it with his finger on the east side of the mercy seat; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the mercy seat.

²⁴then I will act with hostility toward you, and I will strike you sevenfold for your sins.

¹⁵Moses slaughtered the bull, took some of the blood, and applied it with his finger to all four horns of the altar, purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atonement could be made on it.

⁹The sons of Aaron brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and applied it to the horns of the altar. And he poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

⁹then he is to sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, while the rest of the blood is drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.

¹⁸He is also to put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting, and he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

¹⁸Then he shall go out to the altar that is before the Lord and make atonement for it. He is to take some of the bull’s blood and some of the goat’s blood and put it on all the horns of the altar.

³⁴Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, 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.

²⁶He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atonement for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven.

³From the peace offering he is to bring a food offering to the Lord: the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,

⁴both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.

¹⁴And from his offering he shall present a food offering to the Lord: the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,

¹⁵both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.

²⁷Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.

³⁵And he shall remove all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is removed from the peace offerings, and he shall burn it on the altar along with the food offerings to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.

²⁵He is also to burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.

⁴both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.

⁵Then the heifer must be burned in his sight. Its hide, its flesh, and its blood are to be burned, along with its dung.

¹⁴But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering.

¹¹Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.

¹²And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate, to sanctify the people by His own blood.

²⁷The bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to make atonement, must be taken outside the camp; and their hides, flesh, and dung must be burned up.

³⁰But no sin offering may be eaten if its blood has been brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place; it must be burned.

¹⁴Moses then brought the bull near for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.

¹⁵Moses slaughtered the bull, took some of the blood, and applied it with his finger to all four horns of the altar, purifying the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar and consecrated it so that atonement could be made on it.

¹¹Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.

¹⁰And the priest shall put on his linen robe and linen undergarments, and he shall remove from the altar the ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has consumed and place them beside it.

¹¹Then he must take off his garments, put on other clothes, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place.

¹⁴But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering.

²⁷The bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to make atonement, must be taken outside the camp; and their hides, flesh, and dung must be burned up.

⁵Then the heifer must be burned in his sight. Its hide, its flesh, and its blood are to be burned, along with its dung.

³⁵And the Lord said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death. The whole congregation is to stone him outside the camp.”

¹⁷If someone sins and violates any of the Lord’s commandments even though he was unaware, he is guilty and shall bear his punishment.

²Or if a person touches anything unclean—whether the carcass of any unclean wild animal or livestock or crawling creature—even if he is unaware of it, he is unclean and guilty.

³Or if he touches human uncleanness—anything by which one becomes unclean—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty.

¹⁹They pledged to send their wives away, and for their guilt they presented a ram from the flock as a guilt offering.

¹³I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and a violent man; yet because I had acted in ignorance and unbelief, I was shown mercy.

⁴once he has sinned and becomes guilty, he must return what he has stolen or taken by extortion, or the deposit entrusted to him, or the lost property he found,

¹⁵Then I will return to My place until they admit their guilt and seek My face; in their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.”

²³When he becomes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished male goat as his offering.

³If the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the Lord a young bull without blemish as a sin offering for the sin he has committed.

²⁸When he becomes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished female goat as his offering for that sin.

⁴He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.

¹⁰You are to present the Levites before the Lord and have the Israelites lay their hands upon them.

³Then the elders of the city nearest the victim shall take a heifer that has never been yoked or used for work,

⁴bring the heifer to a valley with running water that has not been plowed or sown, and break its neck there by the stream.

⁹Then Moses went up with Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel,

⁴He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and slaughter it before the Lord.

²⁵Then the Lord came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and He took some of the Spirit that was on Moses and placed that Spirit on the seventy elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied—but they never did so again.

⁵Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull’s blood and bring it into the Tent of Meeting.

⁶The priest is to dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.

¹²He did not enter by the blood of goats and calves, but He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by His own blood, thus securing eternal redemption.

¹³For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that their bodies are clean,

⁶The priest is to dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.

⁷The priest must then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

⁷The priest must then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

²⁶He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atonement for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven.

¹⁴I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me.

⁸Then he shall remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering—the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,

⁹both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys—

⁷In this way the priest will make atonement for him before the Lord, and he will be forgiven for anything he may have done to incur guilt.”

³¹Then he is to remove all the fat, just as it is removed from the peace offering, and the priest is to burn it on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.

⁸But if she cannot afford a lamb, she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering. Then the priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.’”

²⁵The priest is to make atonement for the whole congregation of Israel, so that they may be forgiven; for the sin was unintentional and they have brought to the Lord a food offering and a sin offering, presented before the Lord for their unintentional sin.

⁸But if she cannot afford a lamb, she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering. Then the priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.’”

¹⁰And by that will, we have been sanctified through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

¹¹Day after day every priest stands to minister and to offer again and again the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

²⁶He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atonement for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven.

⁷But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

³⁰The next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a great sin. Now I will go up to the Lord; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”

¹⁵Aaron shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and bring its blood behind the veil, and with its blood he must do as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.

⁵For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

⁶who gave Himself as a ransom for all—the testimony that was given at just the right time.

³⁵Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: 12 bulls for all Israel, 96 rams, 77 lambs, and a sin offering of 12 male goats. All this was a burnt offering to the Lord.

²¹They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats as a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And the king commanded the priests, the descendants of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the Lord.

²²So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and splattered it on the altar. They slaughtered the rams and splattered the blood on the altar. And they slaughtered the lambs and splattered the blood on the altar.

¹¹But the hide of the bull and all its flesh, with its head and legs and its entrails and dung—

¹²all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place where the ashes are poured out, and there he must burn it on a wood fire on the ash heap.

²¹God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

²“Tell the Israelites to do as follows with one who sins unintentionally against any of the Lord’s commandments and does what is forbidden by them:

¹³Now if the whole congregation of Israel strays unintentionally and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly so that they violate any of the Lord’s commandments and incur guilt by doing what is forbidden,

¹³And Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation went to meet them outside the camp.

¹⁰After David had numbered the troops, his conscience was stricken and he said to the Lord, “I have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, O Lord, I beg You to take away the iniquity of Your servant, for I have acted very foolishly.”

¹¹When David got up in the morning, the word of the Lord had come to Gad the prophet, David’s seer:

²¹Furthermore, select capable men from among the people—God-fearing, trustworthy men who are averse to dishonest gain. Appoint them over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.

¹During the reign of David there was a famine for three successive years, and David sought the face of the Lord. And the Lord said, “It is because of the blood shed by Saul and his family, because he killed the Gibeonites.”

²At this, David summoned the Gibeonites and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not Israelites, but a remnant of the Amorites. The Israelites had taken an oath concerning them, but in his zeal for Israel and Judah, Saul had sought to kill them.)

¹⁴when they become aware of the sin they have committed, then the assembly must bring a young bull as a sin offering and present it before the Tent of Meeting.

⁴Or if someone swears thoughtlessly with his lips to do anything good or evil—in whatever matter a man may rashly pronounce an oath—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty in the matter.

³For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

¹⁰Moreover, Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” And Shaphan read it in the presence of the king.

¹¹When the king heard the words of the Book of the Law, he tore his clothes

¹⁵In addition to the regular burnt offering with its drink offering, one male goat is to be presented to the Lord as a sin offering.

³⁰Include one male goat to make atonement for you.

⁵And he shall slaughter the young bull before the Lord, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and splatter it on all sides of the altar at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

²He is to lay his hand on the head of the offering and slaughter it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall splatter the blood on all sides of the altar.

¹⁵Aaron shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and bring its blood behind the veil, and with its blood he must do as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.

⁶We all like sheep have gone astray, each one has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid upon Him the iniquity of us all.

⁸He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it in front of the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons shall splatter its blood on all sides of the altar.

²⁵“Tell Aaron and his sons that this is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering shall be slaughtered before the Lord; it is most holy.

³⁰Then the priest is to take some of its blood with his finger, 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.

¹⁸He is also to put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting, and he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

³⁴Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, 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.

⁷The priest must then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

⁹The sons of Aaron brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and applied it to the horns of the altar. And he poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.

²¹Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been declared to you from the beginning? Have you not understood since the foundation of the earth?

²⁰He shall offer this bull just as he did the bull for the sin offering; in this way the priest will make atonement on their behalf, and they will be forgiven.

⁵Then Aaron’s sons are to burn it on the altar atop the burnt offering that is on the burning wood, as a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

²⁸And the priest shall make atonement before the Lord on behalf of the person who erred by sinning unintentionally; and when atonement has been made for him, he will be forgiven.

³¹Then he is to remove all the fat, just as it is removed from the peace offering, and the priest is to burn it on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.

³⁵And he shall remove all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is removed from the peace offerings, and he shall burn it on the altar along with the food offerings to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.

¹⁰And the priest must prepare the second bird as a burnt offering according to the ordinance. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.

²“Tell the Israelites to do as follows with one who sins unintentionally against any of the Lord’s commandments and does what is forbidden by them:

²⁷Also, if one person sins unintentionally, he is to present a year-old female goat as a sin offering.

¹³Now if the whole congregation of Israel strays unintentionally and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly so that they violate any of the Lord’s commandments and incur guilt by doing what is forbidden,

⁶“Tell the Israelites that when a man or woman acts unfaithfully against the Lord by committing any sin against another, that person is guilty

²⁹You shall have the same law for the one who acts in error, whether he is a native-born Israelite or a foreigner residing among you.

¹⁶The same law and the same ordinance will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing with you.”

²³When he becomes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished male goat as his offering.

³If the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the Lord a young bull without blemish as a sin offering for the sin he has committed.

³²If, however, he brings a lamb as a sin offering, he must bring an unblemished female.

¹⁴Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin will be with child and give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.

²⁸There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

¹⁴when they become aware of the sin they have committed, then the assembly must bring a young bull as a sin offering and present it before the Tent of Meeting.

⁴He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and slaughter it before the Lord.

²⁴He is to lay his hand on the head of the goat and slaughter it at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered before the Lord. It is a sin offering.

⁴He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.

¹⁵The elders of the congregation are to lay their hands on the bull’s head before the Lord, and it shall be slaughtered before the Lord.

³³And he is to lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter it as a sin offering at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered.

⁴because it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

⁵Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for Me.

⁷The priest must then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

³⁴Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, 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.

²⁵Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, 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.

¹⁰In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting for God, for whom and through whom all things exist, to make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.

³For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

⁴so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

²¹The Lord was pleased, for the sake of His righteousness, to magnify His law and make it glorious.

²⁶He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atonement for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven.

³⁵And he shall remove all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is removed from the peace offerings, and he shall burn it on the altar along with the food offerings to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.

²¹When the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.

⁹The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

¹⁸Then burn the entire ram on the altar; it is a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord.

¹³The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall present all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

²⁸When he becomes aware of the sin he has committed, he must bring an unblemished female goat as his offering for that sin.

²²“He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in His mouth.”

¹⁸For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit,

²⁹The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

²⁴He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. “By His stripes you are healed.”

³⁶When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”

²⁹He is to lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter it at the place of the burnt offering.

³⁰Then the priest is to take some of its blood with his finger, 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.

⁴He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and slaughter it before the Lord.

²⁵Then the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, 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.

³⁰Then the priest is to take some of its blood with his finger, 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.

⁷The priest must then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the Tent of Meeting. And he is to pour out the rest of the bull’s blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

²¹God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

²⁹How much more severely do you think one deserves to be punished who has trampled on the Son of God, profaned the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

¹⁸For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life you inherited from your forefathers,

¹⁹but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or spot.

²⁶He must burn all its fat on the altar, like the fat of the peace offerings; thus the priest will make atonement for that man’s sin, and he will be forgiven.

³⁰Then the priest is to take some of its blood with his finger, 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.

³¹Then he is to remove all the fat, just as it is removed from the peace offering, and the priest is to burn it on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.

²⁰He shall offer this bull just as he did the bull for the sin offering; in this way the priest will make atonement on their behalf, and they will be forgiven.

¹⁸The rest of the oil in his palm, the priest is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the Lord.

⁷In this way the priest will make atonement for him before the Lord, and he will be forgiven for anything he may have done to incur guilt.”

²He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
