²⁰ and do with this bull just as he did with the bull for the sin offering. In this way the priest will make atonement^(A) for the community, and they will be forgiven.^(B)

²⁵ The priest is to make atonement for the whole Israelite community, and they will be forgiven,^(A) for it was not intentional^(B) and they have presented to the Lord for their wrong a food offering^(C) and a sin offering.^(D)
