Leviticus 4:12

Verse 12 of 35. The 4th of 27 chapters in Leviticus, in The Law.

8He shall take all the fat of the bull of the sin offering from it: the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

9and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall remove,

10as it is removed from the bull of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.

11He shall carry the bull’s skin, all its meat, with its head, and with its legs, its innards, and its dung

12—all the rest of the bull—outside of the camp to a clean place where the ashes are poured out, and burn it on wood with fire. It shall be burned where the ashes are poured out.

13“‘If the whole congregation of Israel sins, and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and are guilty;

14when the sin in which they have sinned is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for a sin offering, and bring it before the Tent of Meeting.

15The elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the LORD; and the bull shall be killed before the LORD.

16The anointed priest shall bring some of the blood of the bull to the Tent of Meeting.
