even all that the LORD has commanded you by Moses, from the day that the LORD gave commandment and onward throughout your generations—

24

then it shall be, if it was done unwittingly, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bull for a burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma to the LORD, with its meal offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for a sin offering.
