Numbers 15:20-29 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

20. From the first batch of bread dough that you make after each new grain harvest, make a loaf of bread and offer it to me, just as you offer grain.

21. All your descendants must follow this law and offer part of the first batch of bread dough.

22-23. The Lord also told Moses to tell the people what must be done if they ever disobey his laws:

24. If all of you disobey one of my laws without meaning to, you must offer a bull as a sacrifice to please me, together with a grain sacrifice, a wine offering, and a goat as a sacrifice for sin.

25. Then the priest will pray and ask me to forgive you. And since you did not mean to do wrong, and you offered sacrifices,

26. the sin of everyone—both Israelites and foreigners among you—will be forgiven.

27. But if one of you does wrong without meaning to, you must sacrifice a year-old female goat as a sacrifice for sin.

28. The priest will then ask me to forgive you, and your sin will be forgiven.

29. The law will be the same for anyone who does wrong without meaning to, whether an Israelite or a foreigner living among you.
