Atonement for Unintentional Sins

22

And if through ignorance you omit any of these things, which the Lord hath spoken to Moses,

23

And by him hath commanded you from the day that he began to command and thenceforward,

24

And the multitude have forgotten to do it: they shall offer a calf out of the herd, a holocaust for a most sweet savour to the Lord, and the sacrifice and libations thereof, as the ceremonies require, and a buck goat for sin:

25

And the priest shall pray for all the multitude of the children of Israel: and it shall be forgiven them, because they sinned ignorantly, offering notwithstanding a burnt offering to the Lord for themselves and for their sin and their Ignorance:

26

And it shall be forgiven all the people of the children of Israel: and the strangers that sojourn among them: because it is the fault of all the people through ignorance.

27

But if one soul shall sin ignorantly, he shall offer a she goat of a year old for his sin.

28

And the priest shall pray for him, because he sinned ignorantly before the Lord: and he shall obtain his pardon, and it shall be forgiven him.

29

The same law shall be for all that sin by ignorance, whether they be natives or strangers.
