22 ¶ When a ruler shall sin, and do through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord his God, which should not be done, and shall offend,

23 If one show unto him his sin, which he hath committed, then shall he bring for his offering an [a]he goat without blemish,

24 And shall lay his hand upon the head of the he goat, and kill it in [b]the place where he should kill the burnt offering before the Lord: for it is a sin offering.

25 Then the Priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the burnt offering altar, and shall pour the rest of his blood at the foot of the burnt offering altar,

26 And shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the peace offering: so the Priest shall make [c]an atonement for him, concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
