“ Speak to the Israelites. Tell them,‘ Suppose someone sins without meaning to. And that person does something the Lord commands us not to do.

“ Tell the Israelites: When someone sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s commands and does anything prohibited by them—

“ Speak to the sons of Israel, saying,‘ If a person sins unintentionally in any of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done, and commits any of them,

“ Speak to the children of Israel, saying:‘ If a person sins unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and does any of them,

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any one shall sin unwittingly, in any of the things which Jehovah hath commanded not to be done, and shall do any one of them:

“ Tell the Israelites: When someone sins unintentionally against any of the Lord’s commands and does anything prohibited by them—

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD[ concerning things] which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them:

“ Tell the Israelites,‘ When a person sins by straying unintentionally from any of the Lord’s commandments which must not be violated, and violates any one of them–

“ Speak to the children of Israel, saying,‘ If anyone sins unintentionally, in any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and does any one of them,

“ If any of the common people sin by violating one of the Lord’s commands, but they don’t realize it, they are still guilty.

How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults.

“ But suppose you unintentionally fail to carry out all these commands that the Lord has given you through Moses.And suppose your descendants in the future fail to do everything the Lord has commanded through Moses.If the mistake was made unintentionally, and the community was unaware of it, the whole community must present a young bull for a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It must be offered along with its prescribed grain offering and liquid offering and with one male goat for a sin offering.With it the priest will purify the whole community of Israel, making them right with the Lord, and they will be forgiven. For it was an unintentional sin, and they have corrected it with their offerings to the Lord— the special gift and the sin offering.The whole community of Israel will be forgiven, including the foreigners living among you, for all the people were involved in the sin.“ If one individual commits an unintentional sin, the guilty person must bring a one year old female goat for a sin offering.The priest will sacrifice it to purify the guilty person before the Lord, and that person will be forgiven.These same instructions apply both to native born Israelites and to the foreigners living among you.

But only the high priest ever entered the Most Holy Place, and only once a year. And he always offered blood for his own sins and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.

“ If someone kills another person unintentionally, without previous hostility, the slayer may flee to any of these cities to live in safety.

And he is able to deal gently with ignorant and wayward people because he himself is subject to the same weaknesses.

“ If the entire Israelite community sins by violating one of the Lord’s commands, but the people don’t realize it, they are still guilty.

“ If one of you commits a sin by unintentionally defiling the Lord’s sacred property, you must bring a guilt offering to the Lord. The offering must be your own ram with no defects, or you may buy one of equal value with silver, as measured by the weight of the sanctuary shekel.You must make restitution for the sacred property you have harmed by paying for the loss, plus an additional 20 percent. When you give the payment to the priest, he will purify you with the ram sacrificed as a guilt offering, making you right with the Lord, and you will be forgiven.“ Suppose you sin by violating one of the Lord’s commands. Even if you are unaware of what you have done, you are guilty and will be punished for your sin.For a guilt offering, you must bring to the priest your own ram with no defects, or you may buy one of equal value. Through this process the priest will purify you from your unintentional sin, making you right with the Lord, and you will be forgiven.

“ If one of Israel’s leaders sins by violating one of the commands of the Lord his God but doesn’t realize it, he is still guilty.

And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right!

But Jonathan had not heard his father’s command, and he dipped the end of his stick into a piece of honeycomb and ate the honey. After he had eaten it, he felt refreshed.

Then Abimelech called for Abraham.“ What have you done to us?” he demanded.“ What crime have I committed that deserves treatment like this, making me and my kingdom guilty of this great sin? No one should ever do what you have done!

even though I used to blaspheme the name of Christ. In my insolence, I persecuted his people. But God had mercy on me because I did it in ignorance and unbelief.
