A sacrificial lamb is an offering to God (or to the gods) in order to bestow a blessing or remove a curse.
A scapegoat was a creature cursed to carry the burden of sin for an entire family or tribe, and then released into the wilderness to fend for itself, in theory taking the sins away with it.
In modern meaning, a scapegoat is a person or situation that is blamed when something goes wrong, while a sacrificial lamb is someone who is undeservedly or disproportionately harmed (for example, fired from their job for something someone else did, or for having done something wrong that a lot of other people also did) as an organization's way of attempting to show remorse or regret for a course of action. Sometimes, they are one and the same person.
