Leviticus 4:29-35 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

29. He must put his hand on the animal’s head. He must kill it at the place of the whole burnt offering.

30. Then the priest must take some of the goat’s blood on his finger. He must put it on the corners of the altar of burnt offering. He must pour out the rest of the goat’s blood at the bottom of the altar.

31. Then the priest must remove all the goat’s fat. He must do it in the same way the fat is removed from the fellowship offerings. He must burn it on the altar. Its smell is pleasing to the Lord. In this way the priest will remove that person’s sin so he will belong to the Lord. And the Lord will forgive him.

32. “‘This person may bring a lamb as his sin offering. If he does, he must bring a female. It must have nothing wrong with it.

33. The person must put his hand on the animal’s head. He must kill it as a sin offering. He must kill it where they kill the whole burnt offering.

34. The priest must take some of the blood from the sin offering on his finger. He must put it on the corners of the altar of burnt offering. Then he must pour out the rest of the lamb’s blood at the bottom of the altar.

35. The priest must remove all the lamb’s fat. He must do it in the same way that the lamb’s fat is removed from the fellowship offerings. He must burn the pieces on the altar. They go on top of the offerings made by fire for the Lord. In this way the priest will remove that person’s sins so he will belong to the Lord. And the Lord will forgive him.
