More Laws Regarding Sin Offerings

5“ ‘When a person[fn] sins in that[fn] he hears the utterance of a curse and he is a witness or he sees or he knows, if he does not make it known, then[fn] he shall bear his guilt. 2Or if a person[fn] touches anything unclean, whether[fn] an unclean wild[fn] animal’s dead body or an unclean domestic animal’s dead body or an unclean swarmer’s dead body, but[fn] he is unaware of it,[fn] he is unclean and he is guilty. 3Or when he touches human uncleanness, namely[fn] any uncleanness of his by which he might become unclean, but[fn] he is unaware of it,[fn] and he himself finds out, then[fn] he will be guilty. 4Or when a person[fn] swears, speaking thoughtlessly with his lips, to do evil or to do good with regard to[fn] anything that the person[fn] in a sworn oath speaks thoughtlessly, but[fn] he is unaware of it,[fn] he will be guilty in any of[fn] these. 5When he becomes guilty in any of[fn] these, he shall confess[fn] what he has sinned regarding[fn] it, 6and he shall bring his guilt offering to[fn] Yahweh for his sin that he has committed:[fn] a female from the flock,[fn] a ewe-lamb or a she-goat,[fn] as a sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for him for[fn] his sin.

7“ ‘If[fn] he cannot afford a sheep,[fn] he shall bring as his guilt offering for what he sinned two turtledoves or two young doves[fn] for Yahweh, one for a sin offering and one for a burnt offering. 8He shall bring[fn] them to the priest, and he shall present that which is for the sin offering first, and the priest[fn] shall wring its head off at the back of its neck,[fn] but[fn] he must not sever it, 9and he shall spatter some of[fn] the sin offering’s blood on the altar’s side, and the leftover blood must be drained out on the altar’s base; it is a sin offering. 10The second[fn] bird he must prepare as a burnt offering according to the regulation, and the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin that he has committed,[fn] and he shall be forgiven.

11“ ‘But[fn] if he cannot afford[fn] two turtledoves or two young doves,[fn] then,[fn] because he has sinned, he shall bring as his offering a tenth of an[fn] ephah of finely milled flour as a sin offering. He must not put[fn] oil on it, nor should he put frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering. 12He shall bring[fn] it to the priest, and the priest shall take a handful of it[fn] for its token portion, and he shall turn it to smoke on the altar in addition to[fn] the offerings made by fire to Yahweh; it is a sin offering. 13Thus[fn] the priest shall make atonement for him because of the sin that he has committed[fn] in any of these,[fn] and he shall be forgiven. It shall be[fn] for the priest, like the grain offering.’ ”

Laws for Guilt Offerings

14Then[fn] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 15“When a person[fn] displays infidelity[fn] and he sins in an unintentional wrong in any of[fn] Yahweh’s holy things, then[fn] he shall bring his guilt offering to[fn] Yahweh: a ram without defect from the flock[fn] as a guilt offering by your valuation in silver shekels[fn] according to the sanctuary shekel. 16And he shall make restitution for what he sinned because of[fn] a holy thing and shall add one-fifth of its value[fn] onto it and shall give it to the priest. The priest[fn] shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.

17“If[fn] a person[fn] when he sins violates[fn] one from all of Yahweh’s commands that should not be violated,[fn] but[fn] he did not know, then[fn] he is guilty and he shall bear his guilt. 18He shall bring[fn] to the priest a ram without defect from the flock[fn] as a guilt offering by your valuation, and the priest shall make atonement for him because of his unintentional wrong (although[fn] he himself did not know), and he will be forgiven. 19It is a guilt offering; he certainly was guilty before Yahweh.”
