1. The Lord spoke to Moses and said,
2. “Tell the Israelites this: A person might sin without meaning to and do something that the Lord commanded should not be done. For example:
3. “If the anointed priest makes a mistake that leaves the people guilty for their sin, he must offer a young bull to the Lord as a sin offering. The bull must have nothing wrong with it.
4. The anointed priest must bring the bull to the entrance of the Meeting Tent in front of the Lord. He must put his hand on the bull’s head and kill the bull in front of the Lord.
5. Then the anointed priest must get some of the blood from the bull and take it into the Meeting Tent.
