Leviticus 4

1 And the LORDE spake vnto Moses, & sayde:2 Speake vnto the childre of Israel, and saye: Whan a soule synneth thorow ignoraunce in any commaundemet of the LORDE, which he ought not to do: As namely,3 yf a prest which is anoynted, synne, that he make the people do amysse, he shall brynge for ye synne that he hath done, a yonge bullocke without blemysh vnto the LORDE for a synofferynge.4 And the bullocke shal he brynge to the dore of the Tabernacle of wytnesse before the LORDE, & laie his hade vpo his heade, & kyll him before ye LORDE.5 And ye prest yt is anoynted, shal take of his bloude, & brynge it in to the Tabernacle of wytnesse.6 And he shall dyppe his fynger in to the bloude, & sprenkle therwith seue tymes before the LORDE, towarde the vayle of ye Holy.7 And he shal put of the same bloude vpon the hornes of the altare of incense, yt stondeth before ye LORDE in the Tabernacle of wytnesse: & all the bloude of the bullocke shal he poure vpon the botome of the altare of burntofferinges, yt stondeth at the entringe in of ye Tabernacle of wytnesse.8 And all the fat of the synofferynge shal he Heue vp: namely, the fat yt couereth the bowels, & all the fat yt is within,9 ye two kydneys with the fatt that is theron vpon the loynes, and the net on the leuer vpon the kydneys also10 (like as he Heueth it from the oxe in the deadofferynge) and shall burne it vpon the altare of burntofferynges.11 But the skynne of the bullocke, and all the flesh, with the heade & legges, & the bowels and the donge,12 shal he cary alltogether out of the hoost, in to a cleane place, where ye aßshes are poured out, & shal burne it vpon wodd with fyre.

13 Whan the whole cogregacion of Israel synneth thorow ignorauce, & the dede be hyd from their eyes, so yt they do ought agaynst eny of the comaundementes of the LORDE, which they shulde not do,14 & come afterwarde to the knowlege of the synne that they haue done, they shal bringe a yonge bullocke for a synofferynge, and set him before ye dore of ye Tabernacle of wytnesse.15 And the Elders of the congregacion shall laye their handes vpon his heade before the LORDE, & kyll ye bullocke before the LORDE.16 And ye prest yt is anoynted shal brynge of ye bullockes bloude into the Tabernacle of wytnesse,17 & dyppe ther in with his fynger, and sprenkle therwith seuen tymes before the LORDE, eue before the vayle of the Holy.18 And shall put of the bloude vpon the hornes of the altare, yt stondeth before the LORDE in the Tabernacle of wytnesse: & all ye other bloude shal he poure vpo the botome of ye altare of burntofferynges, yt stondeth before the dore of ye Tabernacle of wytnesse.19 But all his fatt shal he Heue vp, & burne it vpo the altare:20 & shal do with this bullocke, as he dyd with ye bullocke of the synofferinge: Thus the prest shal make an attonement for them, & it shall be forgeuen them.21 And the bullocke shall he brynge without the hoost, and burne him, as he brent ye first bullocke. This shalbe ye synofferynge of the congregacion.

22 Whan a prynce synneth, & doth agaynst the comaundement of the LORDE his God, yt he ought not to do, & offendeth ignorauntly, & commeth to the knowlege23 of his synne yt he hath done, he shal bringe for his offeringe an he goate without blemysh,24 & laye his hande vpo the goates heade, & slaye him in ye place where ye burntofferinges are slayne before ye LORDE.25 The shal ye prest take of ye bloude of ye synofferinge wt his fynger, and put it vpon the altare of burntofferynges, & poure the other bloude vpon the botome of the altare of burntofferynges.26 But all the fat of it shal he burne vpo the altare, like as the fat of the healthofferynge. And so the prest shal make an attonement for his synne, and it shal be forgeuen him.

27 Wha a soule of ye comon people synneth ignorauntly, doinge eny thinge agaynst the comaundement of the LORDE, yt he ought not to do, & so offendeth,28 & cometh to ye knowlege of the synne yt he hath done, he shal bringe for his offerynge a she goate without blemysh, for the synne yt he hath done,29 and shal laye his hande vpon the heade of the synofferynge, & slaye it in the place of the burntofferynges.30 And the prest shall take of the bloude wt his fynger, & put it vpon the hornes of ye altare of burntofferynges, & poure all the bloude vpon the botome of the altare.31 But all the fat of it shal he take awaye, like as he taketh awaye the fat of the deadofferynge, and shal burne it vpon the altare for a swete sauoure vnto the LORDE. And so shal the prest make an attonemet for him, and it shal be forgeuen him.32 But yf he brynge a lambe for a synofferynge, then let him brynge a female without blemysh,33 and laye his hande vpon the heade of the synofferynge, & kyll it for a synofferynge, in the place where the burntofferynges are slayne. 34 And the prest shal take of ye bloude wt his fynger, & put it vpon the hornes of the altare of burntofferynges, & poure all the bloude vpon the botome of the altare.35 But all ye fatt therof shall he take fro it, like as he dyd the fat of the lambe of the healthofferynge, & shal burne it vpon ye altare for the LORDES sacrifice. And so ye prest shal make an attonement for the synne that he hath done, and it shalbe forgeuen him.
