Leviticus 4:1-7 Good News Bible (GNB)

1. The Lord commanded Moses

2. to tell the people of Israel that anyone who sinned and broke any of the Lord's commands without intending to, would have to observe the following rules.

3. If it is the High Priest who sins and so brings guilt on the people, he shall present a young bull without any defects and sacrifice it to the Lord for his sin.

4. He shall bring the bull to the entrance of the Tent, put his hand on its head, and kill it there in the Lord's presence.

5. Then the High Priest shall take some of the bull's blood and carry it into the Tent.

6. He shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it in front of the sacred curtain seven times.

7. Then he shall put some of the blood on the projections at the corners of the incense altar in the Tent. He shall pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar used for burning sacrifices, which is at the entrance of the Tent.
