Expanded Bible

² “Tell the ·people [^Lsons; children] of Israel this: ‘When a person sins ·by accident [unintentionally; inadvertently; ^Cin contrast to a deliberate sin; Num. 15:22–31] ·and does some things the Lord has commanded not to be done [^Lin any of the Lord’s commandments/regulations], ·that person must do these things [^Land does any one of them]:

³ “‘If the ·appointed [^Lanointed] priest sins so that he brings guilt on the people, then he must offer a young bull to the Lord, ·one that has nothing wrong with it [unblemished], as a ·sin [or purification; ^Cthe offering would purify the offerer of the effects of sin] offering for the sin he has done. ⁴ He will bring the bull to the entrance of the Meeting Tent in front of the Lord, ·put [lay] his hand on its head [1:4], and ·kill [slaughter] it before the Lord.
