1 And if a soul sin,
and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath
seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall
bear his iniquity.
2 Or if a soul touch any unclean
thing, whether it be a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of
unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if
it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.
3 Or if he touch the uncleanness of
man, whatsoever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled
withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he
shall be guilty.
4 Or if a soul swear, pronouncing
with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever it be
that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he
knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.
5 And it shall be, when he shall be
guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he hath
sinned in that thing:
6 And he shall bring his trespass
offering unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the
flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and the priest
shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
7 And if he be not able
to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath
committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a
sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
8 And he shall bring them unto 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
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 wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin
offering.
10 And 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 hath sinned, and it shall be
forgiven him.
11 But if he be not able to bring
two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for
his offering 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 Then shall he bring it to the
priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, even a
memorial thereof, and burn it on the altar, according to the
offerings made by fire unto the LORD: it is a sin offering.
13 And the priest shall make an
atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these,
and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the
priests, as a meat offering.
14 And the LORD spake
unto Moses, saying,
15 If a soul commit a trespass, and
sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring
for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks,
with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the
sanctuary, for a trespass offering:
16 And he shall make amends for the
harm that he hath done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part
thereto, and give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall be
forgiven him.
17 And if a soul sin, and commit any
of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the
LORD; though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his
iniquity.
18 And he shall bring a ram without
blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering,
unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning
his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and it shall be
forgiven him.
19 It is a trespass offering:
he hath certainly trespassed against the LORD.
