Open English Translation LEV Chapter 5

5 “If someone is a witness to a case because of something they saw or knew about, and hears an oath in court but doesn’t testify, then they’ll become guilty.

2 “If someone touches anything ‘unclean’ (e.g., a dead domestic or wild animal, or some creature) without realising it, they still become ‘unclean’ and is guilty.

3 “If someone touches anything ‘unclean’ from another person, even if they initially didn’t realise what it was, they become guilty.

4 “If someone makes a rash promise, whether it’s to do something good or something bad, and even if they were just speaking carelessly but find out later, they become guilty.

5 “So then the person that became guilty from any of the above, must confess their wrongdoing 6 and present a penalty to Yahweh to address that wrongdoing, and must present a female lamb or young goat as a sin offering, and the priest will act on their behalf to make them right with God.

7 “However if that person can’t afford a sheep, then for their guilt offering because of their transgression, they must bring two doves or young pigeons to Yahweh—one for a sin offering and one for a burnt offering. 8 The presenter must take them to the priest who will present the sin offering first—twisting the bird’s head off from the neck, but not pulling the body in half. 9 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood from that sin offering onto the side of the altar, and then drain out the rest of the blood at the altar’s base. That will be the sin offering. 10 ◙
