“‘ When a leader sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the commands of the Lord his God, when he realizes his guilt

“官长若行了耶和华他神所吩咐不可行的什么事，误犯了罪，

“官长若犯罪，在任何事上无意中犯了一条耶和华—他的上帝所吩咐的禁令，而有了罪，

“官长若犯罪，在任何事上无意中犯了一条耶和华—他的神所吩咐的禁令，而有了罪，

“首领若无意中触犯他的上帝耶和华的诫命，也是犯罪。

“如果领袖无意犯了罪，行了一件耶和华他的神吩咐不可行的事，他就有罪。

「官長若行了耶和華－他神所吩咐不可行的甚麼事，誤犯了罪，

「官長若犯罪，在任何事上無意中犯了一條耶和華－他的上帝所吩咐的禁令，而有了罪，

「官長若犯罪，在任何事上無意中犯了一條耶和華－他的神所吩咐的禁令，而有了罪，

「首領若無意中觸犯他的上帝耶和華的誡命，也是犯罪。

『若是首長在永恆主他的上帝所吩咐不可行的事上犯了罪、去行其一件、是作錯了事、以致有了罪責的；

如民長誤干其上帝耶和華之命、為所不當為、以取罪戾、

如有民長、誤干我命、為所不當為、以取罪戾、

若有族長獲罪、誤犯其天主耶和華誡命之一、行所不可行者、遂致陷於罪愆、

“‘ Or suppose a leader sins without meaning to. He disobeys any of the commands of the Lord his God.

“ When a leader sins, doing unintentionally any one of all the things that by the commandments of the Lord his God ought not to be done, and realizes his guilt,

“ 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.

“ When a leader sins and unintentionally violates any of the commands of the LORD his God by doing what is prohibited, and incurs guilt,

‘ When a leader sins and unintentionally does any of the things which the Lord his God has commanded not to be done, and he becomes guilty,

‘ When a ruler has sinned, and done something unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord his God in anything which should not be done, and is guilty,

When a ruler sinneth, and doeth unwittingly any one of all the things which Jehovah his God hath commanded not to be done, and is guilty;

“ When a leader sins and unintentionally violates any of the commands of the Lord his God by doing what is prohibited, and incurs guilt,

When a ruler hath sinned, and done[ somewhat] through ignorance[ against] any of the commandments of the LORD his God[ concerning things] which should not be done, and is guilty;

“‘ Whenever a leader, by straying unintentionally, sins and violates one of the commandments of the LORD his God which must not be violated, and he pleads guilty,

“‘ When a ruler sins, and unwittingly does any one of all the things which Yahweh his God has commanded not to be done, and is guilty,

“ Say to the Israelites:‘ When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands—

“‘ If the whole Israelite community sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, even though the community is unaware of the matter, when they realize their guilt

“‘ If any member of the community sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, when they realize their guilt

During the reign of David, there was a famine for three successive years; so David sought the face of the Lord. The Lord said,“ It is on account of Saul and his blood-stained house; it is because he put the Gibeonites to death.”The king summoned the Gibeonites and spoke to them.( Now the Gibeonites were not a part of Israel but were survivors of the Amorites; the Israelites had sworn to spare them, but Saul in his zeal for Israel and Judah had tried to annihilate them.)David asked the Gibeonites,“ What shall I do for you? How shall I make atonement so that you will bless the Lord’s inheritance?”

and rose up against Moses. With them were 250 Israelite men, well-known community leaders who had been appointed members of the council.

Moses, Eleazar the priest and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp.

But select capable men from all the people— men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain— and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.

David was conscience- stricken after he had counted the fighting men, and he said to the Lord,“ I have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, Lord, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.”Before David got up the next morning, the word of the Lord had come to Gad the prophet, David’s seer:“ Go and tell David,‘ This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’”So Gad went to David and said to him,“ Shall there come on you three years of famine in your land? Or three months of fleeing from your enemies while they pursue you? Or three days of plague in your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”David said to Gad,“ I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the end of the time designated, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died.When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people,“ Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.When David saw the angel who was striking down the people, he said to the Lord,“ I have sinned; I, the shepherd, have done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done? Let your hand fall on me and my family.”
