Numbers 15:22-29
Lexham English Bible
22 “‘But if you go astray and you do not follow[a] all these commandments that Yahweh commanded to Moses, 23 all that Yahweh commanded you by the hand of Moses[b] from the day that Yahweh commanded and beyond, throughout your generations,[c] 24 and if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge[d] of the community, then the entire community must prepare one young bull[e] as a burnt offering, as a fragrance of appeasement for Yahweh, and its grain offering and its libation, according to the stipulation, and one male goat as a sin offering. 25 The priest will make atonement for all of the community of the Israelites,[f] and they will be forgiven[g] because it was unintentional; they will bring their offering, an offering made by fire for Yahweh, their sin offering before Yahweh[h] for their unintentional sin. 26 All of the community of the Israelites[i] will be forgiven, as well as the alien that dwells in their midst, because the whole community was involved in the unintentional wrong.
27 “‘If one person sins unintentionally, that person will present a female goat in its first year[j] as a sin offering. 28 And the priest will make atonement for the person who sinned unintentionally[k] before Yahweh,[l] to make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven. 29 For the native among the Israelites[m] and the alien that dwells in their midst, there will be one law for anyone who commits an unintentional wrong.

New American Standard Bible
22 ‘But when you (A)unintentionally do wrong and fail to [a]comply with all these commandments which the Lord has spoken to Moses, 23 that is, all that the Lord has commanded you [b]through Moses from the day that the Lord gave commandments and onward, throughout your generations, 24 then it shall be, if it is done (B)unintentionally, [c]without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one bull as a burnt offering, as a soothing aroma to the Lord, (C)with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat as a sin offering. 25 Then (D)the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and they will be forgiven; for it was an unintentional wrong, and they have brought their offering, an offering by fire to the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord, for their unintentional wrong. 26 So all the congregation of the sons of Israel will be forgiven, as well as the stranger who resides among them, for guilt was attributed to all the people through an (E)unintentional wrong.
27 ‘Also, if one person sins (F)unintentionally, then he shall offer a one-year-old female goat as a sin offering. 28 And (G)the priest shall make atonement before the Lord for the person who goes astray by an unintentional sin, making atonement for him [d]so that he may be forgiven. 29 You shall have one law for the native among the sons of Israel and for the stranger who resides among them, for one who does anything wrong unintentionally.
