1. Then the lord said to Moses,
2. “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. This is how you are to deal with those who sin unintentionally by doing anything that violates one of the lord’s commands.
3. “If the high priest sins, bringing guilt upon the entire community, he must give a sin offering for the sin he has committed. He must present to the lord a young bull with no defects.
4. He must bring the bull to the lord at the entrance of the Tabernacle, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and slaughter it before the lord.
5. The high priest will then take some of the bull’s blood into the Tabernacle,
6. dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the lord in front of the inner curtain of the sanctuary.
