‏ Leviticus 5

CHAPTER 5 The Sin Offering

1 And if a soul should sin, and should hear a voice of conjuring, and witness this, or see, or be fully conscious of it, if he should not report it, he takes responsibility for his sin. 2 That soul which ever should touch any thing unclean, or decaying flesh, or [²taken by wild beasts ¹that which is unclean], or of the decaying flesh of abominations of the unclean, or of the decaying flesh [²cattle ¹of unclean], 3 or should touch of the uncleanness of a man, of any of his uncleanness -- what ever touching he should be defiled, and he be unaware of it, but after this he should know even he should have trespassed. 4 The soul, in what ever he should swear by an oath, drawing apart his lips to do evil or [²well ¹to do] according to all as much as [³who should draw apart ¹the ²man] according to an oath, and should be unaware of it, and this one should know and should sin any one of these things -- 5 then he shall declare openly the sin for which he has sinned by it. 6 And he shall bring for which he trespassed against the lord, for the sin of which he sinned, a female from the sheep, a ewe-lamb or a yearling of the goats for a sin offering. And [³shall atone ⁴for ⁵him ¹the ²priest] for the sin which he sinned, and [³will be forgiven ⁴him ¹the ²sin]. 7 And if [²is not strong ¹his hand] to be fit for bringing the sheep, he shall bring for his sin offering of which he sinned, two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons to the lord; one for a sin offering, and one for a whole burnt-offering. 8 And he shall bring them to the priest. And [³shall bring ¹the ²priest] the one for the [²sin offering ¹prior]. And [³shall pluck off ¹the ²priest] its head from the neck, and shall not divide it. 9 And he shall sprinkle from the blood of the one for the sin offering upon the wall of the altar; but the rest of the blood he shall drop upon the base of the altar -- [³an offering on account of sin ¹for ²it is]. 10 And the second one he shall offer for a whole offering as is fit. And [³shall atone ⁴for ⁵him ¹the ²priest] for his sin which he sinned, and it shall be forgiven him. 11 And if [²should not find ¹his hand] a pair of turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his gift for which he sinned -- the tenth of the ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall not pour upon it olive oil, nor place upon it frankincense, for [²on account ³of sin ¹it is an offering]. 12 And he shall bring it to the priest. And [³grabbing ¹the ²priest] from it a full handful of his, [²the ³memorial portion ⁴of it ¹shall place] upon the altar, upon the whole burnt-offerings to the lord -- [²a sin offering ¹it is]. 13 And [³shall atone ⁴for ⁵him ¹the ²priest] for his sin which he sinned against one of these things -- and it shall be forgiven him. And the remaining will be for the priest as a sacrifice of the fine flour. 14 And the lord spoke to Moses, saying, 15 The soul who ever should be unaware himself with forgetfulness, and should sin unintentionally of the holy things of the lord, then he shall bring for his trespass offering to the lord [²ram ¹an unblemished] of the flocks, of the value of silver of shekels, in the shekel in the holy place, for what he trespassed. 16 And what ever he sinned, [²from ³the ⁴holy things ¹he shall pay], and the fifth part he shall add to it. And he shall give it to the priest. And the priest shall atone for him by the ram of the trespass offering. And it shall be forgiven him. 17 And the soul who ever should sin, and should commit one trespass from all of the commandments of the lord, which [³not ²must ¹he] do, and does not know, and should trespass, and should take the guilt for his sin; 18 then he shall bring [²ram ¹an unblemished] from out of the flocks, the value of silver for the trespass offering to the priest. And [³shall atone ⁴for ⁵him ¹the ²priest] for his ignorance of which he was ignorant of, and he did not know. And it will be forgiven him, 19 for he trespassed a trespass -- it is a trespass offering before the lord.
