Leviticus 5 And when any person shall sin inadvertently; now should one be adjured and being a witness hath either seen or known, if he do not tell, he will contract that sin;

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And when any person shall sin inadvertently; now should one be adjured and being a witness hath either seen or known, if he do not tell, he will contract that sin; ² or if any person touch any unclean thing, either a corpse, or the unclean prey of wild beasts, or the carcases of unclean abominations, or the carcases of unclean beasts, ³ or shall touch any impurity of man; any of his impurities by the touching of which one would be defiled, and it escaped his notice and he hath afterwards come to the knowledge of it; ⁴ or if a person be a transgressor, either pronouncing with his lips to do evil; or to do good according to all that the man might pronounce with an oath and it hath escaped his notice; when he hath come to the knowledge of his having inadvertently sinned in any of these cases, ⁵ he shall confess his sin in respect to whatever he hath sinned; ⁶ and for trespassing against the Lord, for the sin which he hath sinned, he shall bring a female from the flock either a lamb or a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he hath sinned; and the sin shall be forgiven him. ⁷ And if he is not able to furnish a lamb, he shall bring for the trespass which he hath committed two turtle doves or two young pigeons to the Lord, one for a sin offering and the other for a whole burnt offering: ⁸ and he shall carry them to the priest and the priest shall offer that for the sin offering, first. And the priest shall wring off its head from the neck, but shall not divide it; ⁹ and he shall sprinkle some of the blood of that which is for a sin offering on the side of the altar and squeeze out the rest of the blood on the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. ¹⁰ Then he shall offer the other as an offering of homage in the usual manner. So shall the priest make atonement for him for the sin which he hath committed and it shall be forgiven him. ¹¹ But if his hand cannot find a pair of doves or two young pigeons, then he shall bring as his gift for the sin which he hath committed the tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. Upon this he shall not pour oil, nor shall he lay incense on it, because it is a sin offering. ¹² And he shall bring it to the priest; and the priest having taken his handful from it shall lay this memorial of it on the altar of whole burnt offerings for the Lord. It is a sin offering. ¹³ So shall the priest make atonement for him, for the sin which he hath committed and it shall be forgiven him. And what is left shall be for the priest, as the sacrifice of fine flour. ¹⁴ Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses saying, ¹⁵ If a person through inadvertence hath forgotten or been unwittingly deficient in any of the holy things of the Lord; when he shall bring for his trespass against the Lord a ram without blemish from the flock, thou must estimate in silver shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary, the value of that in respect to which he hath trespassed, ¹⁶ and he shall pay the amount of the deficiency of which he hath been guilty, and shall add thereto a fifth and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the trespass ram and he shall be forgiven. ¹⁷ So with respect to every person, who may have sinned; when he shall do any of those things, which by any of the commands of the Lord ought not to be done, and did not know; if he hath trespassed and contracted guilt; ¹⁸ when he shall bring a ram without blemish from the flock, thou must fine him in money before the priest to the amount of the trespass; and the priest shall make atonement for him, for the ignorance of which he was guilty, though he did not know; and he shall be forgiven; ¹⁹ for he hath been guilty of a trespass in the sight of the Lord.
