¹⁸Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye come into the land whither I bring you,

¹⁹Then it shall be that when ye eate of the bread of the land, yee shall offer vp an heaue offring vnto the LORD.

²⁰Ye shall offer vp a cake of the first of your dough, for an heaue offring: as ye doe the heaue offering of the threshing floore, so shall ye heaue it.

²¹Of the first of your dough ye shal giue vnto the LORD, an heaue offering in your generations.

²²¶ And if yee haue erred, and not obserued all these Commaundements which the LORD hath spoken vnto Moses,

²³Euen all that the LORD hath commanded you, by the hand of Moses from the day that the LORD commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations:

²⁴Then it shalbe, if ought be committed by ignorance ^†without the knowledge of the Congregation, that all the Congregation shall offer one yong bullocke for a burnt offering, for a sweet sauour vnto the LORD, with his meate offering, and his drinke offering, according to the ^‖manner, and one kid of the goats for a sinne offering.

²⁶And it shall bee forgiuen all the Congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that soiourneth among them, seeing all the people were in ignorance.

²⁷¶ And ^*if any soule sinne through ignorance, then hee shall bring a shee goat of the first yeere for a sinne offring.

²⁸And the Priest shall make an atonement for the soule that sinneth ignorantly, when he sinneth by ignorance before the LORD, to make an atonement for him, & it shalbe forgiuen him.

²⁹You shall haue one law for him that ^†sinneth through ignorance, both for him that is borne amongst the children of Israel, and for the stranger that soiourneth among them.

³⁰¶ But the soule that doeth ought ^†presumptuously, whether he be borne in the land, or a stranger, the same reprocheth the LORD: and that soule shall be cut off from among his people.

³¹Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken his commandement, that soule shall vtterly be cut off: his iniquitie shall be vpon him.

¹AND the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

²Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season.
