Leviticus 4:13-21 - For The Whole Congregation

¹³ If the whole congregation of Israel commits error and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly, and they commit any of the things that Jehovah commands not to be done they become guilty. ¹⁴ When the sin they have committed becomes known the assembly shall offer a bull of the herd. This is for a sin offering. Bring it before the Tent of Meeting. ¹⁵ The elders of the congregation will place their hands on the bull's head in Jehovah's presence. One of them will slaughter it in Jehovah's presence. ¹⁶ Then the anointed priest will bring some of the bull's blood into the Tent of Meeting. ¹⁷ The priest will dip his finger in some of the blood and sprinkle it seven times in Jehovah's presence in front of the veil. ¹⁸ He will put some blood on the horns of the altar in Jehovah's presence in the Tent of Meeting. He will pour the remaining blood at the bottom of the altar. This is for burnt offerings at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. ¹⁹ He will remove all the fat and burn it on the altar. ²⁰ He will do the same thing with this bull that he did with the bull used as the offering for sin. So the priest will pay compensation for the wrong and make peace with Jehovah for the people. They will be forgiven. ²¹ He will take the bull outside the camp and burn it the same way he burned the first bull. It is an offering for sin for the community.
