Exegesis
In the second clause, ve-nislach {וְנִסְלַח | wə-nis-lā-ḥ} ‘and it shall be forgiven’ (Nifal perfect) marks the result, with lo {לוֹ | lōʾ} ‘to him’ and me-chatato {מֵחַטָּאתוֹ | mē-ḥaṭ-ṭātô} ‘from his sin,’ again narrowed by asher chata. The coordination underscores the causal link between sacrifice and pardon, while repeated reference to his sin emphasizes personal accountability.
In context — Leviticus 19:22
And the priest will make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed, and he will be forgiven for his sin which he has committed.
