[With regard to an] asham talui —- the individual and the king are liable; but the Anointed [Kohen] and the court are exempt.  [With regard to the] definite guilt-offering —- the individual, the king, and the Anointed [Kohen] are liable; but the court is exempt.  For [the sin of] hearing the voice [of adjuration], or the utterance [of an oath] of the lips, or the tu-mah-contamination of the Temple or its consecrated articles, the court is exempt; but the individual, the king, and the Anointed [Kohen] are liable. But the Kohen Gadol is not liable for the tumah-contamination of the Temple or its consecrated articles; [these are] the words of R’ Shimon.  What do they offer? The variable sin-offering. R’ Eliezer says: The king of-fers a he-goat.

An Anointed Kohen who sinned, and then passed from his [position of] anointment; and similarly, a king who sinned, and then passed from his [position of] greatness —- the Anointed Kohen brings a bull, and the king brings a he-goat.

An Anointed Kohen who passed from his [position of] anointment and then sinned; and similarly, the king who passed from his [position of] greatness and then sinned —- the Anointed Kohen brings a bull, but the king is like a commoner.

[If] they sinned before they were appointed, and were then appointed —- they are like the commoner. R’ Shimon says: If it became known to them before they were appointed, they are liable; after they were appointed, they are exempt.  Who is the Nasi? This is the king, as it says: and he will do one of the commands of Hashem his God —- [i.e.,] a Nasi who has none above him but Hashem his God.
