Leviticus 4:27-28

For the Common Person

27 “‘If an ordinary individual ^{▼▼tn Heb “an individual from the people of the land”; cf. NASB “anyone of the common people” (KJV, ASV both similar); NAB “a private person.”} sins by straying unintentionally ^{▼▼tn Heb “If one person sins by straying, from the people of the land.” See Lev 4:2 for a note on “straying.”} when he violates one of the Lord’s commandments which must not be violated, ^{▼▼tn Heb “by doing it, one from the commandments of the Lord which must not be done.”} and he pleads guilty, 28 or his sin that he committed ^{▼▼tn Heb “or his sin which he sinned is made known to him”; cf. NCV “when that person learns about his sin.”} is made known to him, ^{▼▼tn Lev 4:27b-28a is essentially the same as 4:22b-23a (see the notes there).} he must bring a flawless female goat ^{▼▼tn Heb “a she-goat of goats, a female without defect”; NAB “an unblemished she-goat.”} as his offering for the sin ^{▼▼tn Heb “on his sin.”} that he committed.
