"Speak unto the children of Israel and say, 'When a soul sinneth through ignorance, and hath done any of those things which the LORD hath forbidden in his commandments to be done:

If the priest that is anointed sin, and make the people to do amiss, he shall bring for his sin which he hath done: an ox without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering.

"'If one of the common people of the land sin through ignorance and commit any of the things which the LORD hath forbidden, in his commandments to be done and so hath trespassed,

And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD, for his sin which he hath done: and it shall be forgiven him, as concerning the sin which he hath done.
