13. But if all the crowd of Israel will have been ignorant, and through inexperience will have done what is contrary to the commandment of the Lord,
14. and afterwards shall understand their sin: they shall offer a calf on behalf of their sin, and they shall lead it to the door of the tabernacle.
15. And the elders of the people shall place their hands upon its head in the sight of the Lord. And when the calf has been immolated in the sight of the Lord,
16. the priest who is anointed shall carry some of its blood into the tabernacle of the testimony.
17. and he shall dip his finger in it, sprinkling it seven times opposite the veil.
18. And he shall place some of the same blood on the horns of the altar, which is in the presence of the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony. But the remainder of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of holocaust, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
19. And he shall take all its fat and burn it upon the altar,
20. doing so with this calf in the same manner as he did before. And while the priest is praying for them, the Lord will forgive them.
21. But the calf itself he shall carry away, beyond the camp, and he shall also burn it, just as with the previous calf, because it is for the sin of the multitude.
