Who Brings a Sin-Offering Israel, Converts, and Freed Slaves

Yalkut Shimoni on Torah 464:4

"A soul, when it sins" (Leviticus 4:2) - the children of Israel bring a sin-offering, but the nations do not bring a sin-offering. And it need not be said concerning the commandments that the descendants of Noah were not commanded; but even concerning the commandments that the descendants of Noah were commanded, the descendants of Noah do not bring a sin-offering for them. "The children of Israel" - I have only the children of Israel; from where to include the converts and the freed slaves? Scripture says "a soul, when it sins."
