11. But the bull’s hide and all of its flesh, along with its head, lower legs, entrails, and dung—
12. all that remains of the bull—will be taken to a clean location outside the camp, to the ash heap. It should be burned there at the ash heap on a wood fire.
13. If it is the entire Israelite community that has done something wrong unintentionally and the deed escapes the assembly’s notice—but they’ve done something that shouldn’t be done in violation of the Lord’s commands, becoming guilty of sin—
14. once the sin that they committed becomes known, the assembly must present a bull from the herd as a purification offering. They will bring it before the meeting tent.
15. The community elders will press their hands on the bull’s head before the Lord and then slaughter it before the Lord.
16. The anointed priest will take some of the bull’s blood into the meeting tent.
17. The priest will dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord toward the inner curtain.
18. Then he will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before the Lord in the meeting tent. But he will pour all the rest of the blood out at the base of the altar of entirely burned offerings that is at the meeting tent’s entrance.
19. Then he will remove all the fat from it and completely burn it on the altar.
