27. Quod si anima aliqua peccaverit per errorem de populo terrae, faciendo unum a praeceptis Jehova quae non sunt facienda, et deliquerit: to be done, and be guilty;
28. Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
28. Si innotuerit ei peccatum suum quod peccavit: afferet oblationem suam capellam caprarum immaculatam foeminam pro peccato suo quod peccavit.
29. And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.
29. Admovebitque manum suam super caput oblationis pro peccato, et mactabit oblationem illam pro peccato in loco holocausti.
30. And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.
30. Dein tollet sacerdos de sanguine ejus digito suo, ponetque super cornua altaris holocausti: totum vero reliquum sanguinem ejus effundet ad basin altaris.
31. And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour
31. Totum praeterea adipem ejus auferet, quemadmodum ablatus fuit adeps a sacrificio prosperitatum: adolebitque sacerdos super altare in odorem quietis Jehovae: atque ita expiabit eum sacerdos, et remittetur ei. unto the LORD; and the priest shalt make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.
32. And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.
32. Quod si pecudem obtulerit oblationem suam pro peccato, foeminam immaculatam afferet.
