Lev 5
1
And if any one sin, in that he hears the voice of adjuration, he being a witness,
whether he has seen or known, if he do not utter [it], then he shall bear his iniquity.
2
Or if any one touch any unclean thing, whether it be the carcass of an unclean beast,
or the carcass of unclean cattle, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it
be hidden from him, and he be unclean, then he shall be guilty.
3
Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness be wherewith he is
unclean, and it be hid from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.
4
Or if any one swear rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it be
that a man shall utter rashly with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knows
of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these [things].
5
And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these [things], that he shall confess
that wherein he has sinned:
6
and he shall bring his trespass-offering to YHWH for his sin which he has sinned,
a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin-offering; and the priest shall
make atonement for him as concerning his sin.
7
And if his means suffice not for a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass-offering
for that wherein he has sinned, two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, to YHWH; one
for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering.
8
And he shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin-offering
first, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not divide it asunder:
9
and he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin-offering upon the side of the altar;
and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar: it is a sin-offering.
10
And he shall offer the second for a burnt-offering, according to the ordinance; and
the priest shall make atonement for him as concerning his sin which he has sinned,
and he shall be forgiven.
11
But if his means suffice not for two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, then he shall
bring his oblation for that wherein he has sinned, the tenth part of an ephah of fine
flour for a sin-offering: he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense
thereon; for it is a sin-offering.
12
And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as
its memorial, and burn it on the altar, upon the offerings of YHWH made by
fire: it is a sin-offering.
13
And the priest shall make atonement for him as touching his sin that he has sinned
in any of these things, and he shall be forgiven: and [the remnant] shall be the priest`s,
as the meal-offering.
14
And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
15
If any one commit a trespass, and sin unwittingly, in the holy things of YHWH; then
he shall bring his trespass-offering to YHWH, a ram without blemish out of the flock,
according to your estimation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary,
for a trespass-offering:
16
and he shall make restitution for that which he has done amiss in the holy thing,
and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall
make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering, and he shall be forgiven.
17
And if any one sin, and do any of the things which YHWH has commanded not to be done;
though he knew it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.
18
And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, according to your estimation,
for a trespass-offering, to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him
concerning the thing wherein he erred unwittingly and knew it not, and he shall be
forgiven.
19
It is a trespass-offering: he is certainly guilty before YHWH.
