Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

"Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: ^(v)in the place where the burnt offering is slain the sin offering shall be slain before the Lord ; it is most holy.

^(w)The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the tent of meeting.

^(x)Anyone who touches its flesh will become consecrated; and when any of its blood ^[l]splashes on a garment, in a holy place you shall wash what was splashed on.

Also ^(y)the earthenware vessel in which it was boiled shall be broken; and if it was boiled in a bronze vessel, then it shall be scoured and rinsed in water.

^(z)Every male among the priests may eat of it; ^(aa)it is most holy.

But no sin offering ^(ab)of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement ^(ac)in the holy place shall be eaten; ^(ad)it shall be burned with fire.
