Leviticus 5
- 1And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of it. If he do not speak it, then he shall carry the blame for his wrongdoing.
- 2Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it is a dead body of an unclean beast, or a dead body of unclean cattle, or the dead body of unclean creeping things, and if it is hidden from him. He also shall be unclean, and guilty.
- 3Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled besides, and it be hid from him. When he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.
- 4Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it be that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him. When he knows of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.
- 5And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he has sinned in that thing:
- 6And he shall bring his guilt offering to the Lord for his sin which he has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering. The priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
- 7And if he is not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his sin, which he has committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to the Lord, one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
- 8And he shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and wring off his head from his neck, but shall not divide it apart:
- 9And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar. The rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering.
- 10And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he has sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
- 11But if he is not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he who sinned shall bring for his offering 2 quarts of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it, neither shall he put any frankincense on it. For it is a sin offering.
- 12Then he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, even a memorial of it, and burn it on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire to the Lord: it is a sin offering.
- 13And the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest's, as a grain offering.
- 14And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
- 15If a soul commit a sin, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the Lord, then he shall bring for his sin to the Lord a ram without any defect out of the flocks, worth the right number of pieces of silver, by the official sanctuary weight, for a guilt offering.
- 16And he shall make amends for the harm that he has done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part to it, and give it to the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and it shall be forgiven him.
- 17And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the Lord. Though he did not know it, yet he is guilty, and shall carry the blame for his wrongdoing.
- 18And he shall bring a ram without any defect out of the flock, with the value you set, for a guilt offering, to the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance in which he strayed and did not know it, and it shall be forgiven him.
- 19It is a guilt offering: he has certainly sinned against the Lord.
