Sins

“Tell the Israelites to do as follows with one who sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s commandments and does what is forbidden by them:

“If someone sins by failing to testify when he hears a public charge about something he has witnessed, whether he has seen it or learned of it, he shall bear the iniquity.

“If someone acts unfaithfully and sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s holy things, he must bring his guilt offering to the LORD: an unblemished ram from the flock, of proper value in silver shekels according to the sanctuary shekel; it is a guilt offering.

If someone sins and violates any of the LORD’s commandments even though he was unaware, he is guilty and shall bear his punishment.

“If someone sins and acts unfaithfully against the LORD by deceiving his neighbor in regard to a deposit or security entrusted to him or stolen, or if he extorts his neighbor

Then he is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to put them on the goat’s head and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man appointed for the task.

…because on this day atonement will be made for you to cleanse you, and you will be clean from all your sins before the LORD.

This is to be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement once a year for the Israelites because of all their sins.” And all this was done as the LORD had commanded Moses.

And if after all this you will not obey Me, I will proceed to punish you sevenfold for your sins.

If you walk in hostility toward Me and refuse to obey Me, I will multiply your plagues seven times, according to your sins.

…then I will act with hostility toward you, and I will strike you sevenfold for your sins.

…then I will walk in fury against you, and I, even I, will punish you sevenfold for your sins.
