To bring the bull of the sin offering near is a symbolic action equivalent to the expression “to present” used in this chapter and elsewhere in Leviticus. It refers to bringing the person, object, or animal to the entrance of the tent of meeting, where Yahweh lived among the Israelites and showing it off to Yahweh. If the significance of this action would be unclear in your language, consider making the meaning plain. Alternate translation: [And he led the bull of the sin offering to Yahweh’s presence in the tent of meeting]

This is a symbolic action that identifies Aaron and his sons with the animal they are offering. In this way, they are placing their sin on the animal in Yahweh’s presence. See how you translated this action in 1:4.
OET-LV And_he_brought_near DOM the_bull_of the_sin_offering and_ ʼAhₐron and_sons_of_his _he_leaned DOM hands_of_their on the_head_of the_bull_of the_sin_offering.
OET (OET-RV) Then he brought the bull for the sin offering, and Aharon and his sons placed their hands on its head.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
