Leviticus 4

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

The Lord passionately communicated to Moses, expressing,

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them:

Tell the people of Israel, if someone unknowingly disobeys any of God's commands, doing what they shouldn't, they have sinned.

If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering.

If the priest, despite his holy role, falls into sin just like anyone else, he must seek forgiveness. He should present a young, flawless bull to the Lord as a symbol of his remorse and desire for redemption.

And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock’s head, and kill the bullock before the LORD.

He will lead the bull to the entrance of the sacred tent, in the presence of God. He will gently place his hand on the bull's head, and then, with a heavy heart, he will end its life as an offering to the Lord.

And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock’s blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation:

The chosen priest, filled with sacred duty, shall gently collect the bull's blood and reverently carry it to the heart of the gathering place.

And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD, before the vail of the sanctuary.

The priest, with reverence, will immerse his finger in the blood, and gently scatter it seven times in the presence of the LORD, just before the sacred veil of the sanctuary.

And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation; and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

The priest, with reverence, will anoint the altar's horns with the animal's blood, in the sacred tent before God. He will then pour the remaining blood at the base of the altar, located at the entrance of the holy gathering place.

And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

He must remove all the bullock's fat used for the sin offering; the fat that blankets the inner organs, and every bit of fat within.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,

He must remove the two kidneys, the fat surrounding them, and the protective layer over the liver.

As it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering.

The fat is removed just as it is from the bull of the peace offering, and the priest sets it ablaze on the altar of burnt offering. This act is filled with reverence and solemnity, a sacred ritual of sacrifice.

And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,

The bull's hide, every bit of its flesh, its head, legs, inner parts, and even its waste.

Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.

He must take the entire bull outside the camp to a pure place where ashes are discarded. There, amidst the ashes, he should set it ablaze on a wooden pyre.

And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty;

If all of Israel unknowingly sins, doing something they shouldn't as per God's commandments, and no one realizes it, they are still guilty.

When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.

When the community realizes their wrongdoings, they should present a young bull as an apology, bringing it to the place of worship.

And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD: and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD.

The senior members of the community will gently place their hands on the bull's head, in the presence of the Lord. Then, with the Lord as their witness, the bull will be sacrificed.

And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock’s blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:

The chosen priest must carry the bull's blood to the community's sacred tent.

And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, even before the vail.

The priest, with reverence, will touch his finger to the blood and gently scatter it seven times in the presence of the LORD, just before the sacred curtain.

And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

He will gently smear some blood on the altar's horns, standing before God in the sacred tent. Then, he'll pour the rest of the blood at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, located at the entrance of the holy gathering place.

And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.

He shall remove all its fat, and passionately offer it up in sacrifice on the altar.

And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.

Just as he treated the first bull for a sin offering, he'll do the same with this one. The priest will seek reconciliation for them, and they will be forgiven.

And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation.

He will carry the bull outside the camp and burn it, just as he burned the first one. This is the sin offering for the community.

When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD his God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;

When a leader makes a mistake, unknowingly breaking God's laws about what shouldn't be done, they are at fault.

Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male without blemish:

If a man realizes his mistake, he must make amends by offering a flawless young male goat.

And he shall lay his hand upon 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.

He will gently place his hand on the goat's head, ending its life where other offerings have been made to the Lord. This act is a symbol of atonement for sin.

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering.

The priest, with a solemn heart, will gently touch the blood from the offering for sin. He will then anoint the altar's peaks with it, and let the rest flow down to the base of the altar, signifying the cleansing of sin.

And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

He will burn all its fat on the altar, just like the fat of the peace offerings. The priest will seek forgiveness for his sins, and he will be absolved.

And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;

If an ordinary person unknowingly sins by doing something that goes against God's laws, they are guilty.

Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.

When he realizes his mistake, he must make amends by offering a flawless young female goat as a symbol of his regret for the wrong he has done.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.

He will gently place his hand on the head of the sacrifice for sin, and end its life where the burnt offering is made.

And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.

The priest, with a solemn heart, will gently touch the blood with his finger. He will then anoint the altar's horns, a sacred symbol of sacrifice. Finally, he will pour the remaining blood at the altar's base, a poignant act of complete surrender.

And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

He will remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from peace offerings. The priest will burn it on the altar, a pleasing aroma to God. The priest will seek forgiveness for him, and he will be forgiven.

And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.

If he offers a lamb to atone for his sins, it must be a flawless female.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.

He will gently place his hand on the head of the sacrifice, acknowledging its purpose, and end its life in the same sacred place where other offerings are made.

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar:

The priest, with a heavy heart, will dip his finger in the blood of the sin offering. He will then solemnly dab it on the altar's horns, symbolizing atonement. The remaining blood will be poured at the altar's base, signifying complete surrender and repentance.

And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: and the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall be forgiven him.

He will remove all the fat, just as the lamb's fat is removed during the peace offerings. The priest will then burn them on the altar, following the tradition of offerings made by fire to the Lord. The priest will seek forgiveness for his sins, and he will be forgiven.
