5 [1] If a person sins, and heard an oath [demanding his testimony] [in a case where] he is a witness; [for] he either saw or knew [something relevant], if he does not testify, he will bear [the burden of] his iniquity. [2] Or, if a person touches anything impure either the carcass of an impure wild animal, or the carcass of an impure animal of pasture, or the carcass of an impure creeping animal; and this [impurity] was concealed from him, he is impure and incurs guilt. [3] Or, if he touches the impurities of man whatever that impurity may be that causes impurity and this [impurity] was concealed from him; [when] he realizes [he is impure], he incurs guilt. [4] Or, if a person swears, orally expressing to do harm [that he will do something which is to his detriment] or to do good [that he will do something that is to his benefit]. Regarding all a person will expresses in an oath and [that oath] was concealed from himself, when he realizes [his sin] and he incurs guilt, for any one of these [aforementioned sins]. [5] It shall be that when he incurs guilt for any of these [aforementioned sins] he shall confess that which he transgressed. [6] He shall bring his guilt-offering to [**before**] Adonoy for his sin that he committed a female of the sheep, a lamb or a she-goat as a sin-offering. The *kohein* will atone for him, for his sin. [7] If his means are not sufficient for [the acquisition of] a sheep, then he shall bring for his guilt-offering,—[he] who has sinned,—two turtledoves or two young pigeons to [**before**] Adonoy one for a sin-offering and one for a burnt-offering. [8] He shall bring them to the *kohein* and he shall bring that which is for a sin-offering first. He [the *kohein*] shall shear its head [with his fingernail] opposite of its neck, but not separate [the head] completely. [9] He shall sprinkle some blood of the sin-offering on to the wall of the altar. And the remaining blood shall be squeezed into the base of the altar; it is a sin-offering. [10] He shall do (offer) the second [turtledove pigeon] as a burnt-offering, as prescribed. The *kohein* will atone from him, for his sin that he committed and he will be pardoned. [11] If his means are not sufficient for the acquisition of two turtledoves or two young pigeons, he shall bring as his offering,—[he] who has sinned,—one tenth of an epha [**which is three se’in**] of fine flour as a sin-offering. He shall not put oil upon it, nor shall he place frankincense upon it, for it is a sin-offering. [12] He shall bring it to the *kohein* and the *kohein* shall take a fistful from it [as] its memorial portion and burn it on the altar on the fires [**offerings**] of Adonoy; it is a sin-offering. [13] The *kohein* will atone for him, for his sin that he committed in one of these [three] ways and he will be pardoned. [The remaining portion] shall belong to the *kohein* as a meal-offering. [14] And Adonoy spoke to Moshe, saying; [15] If a person wrongfully deviates [**lies**] and unwittingly sins [by using the] sacred property of Adonoy, he shall bring his guilt-offering to [**before**] Adonoy, an unblemished ram, from the sheep, based on the valuation of holy silver shekalim [**selaim**], for a guilt-offering. [16] That which he sinned [making use] of the sacred property, he shall pay for and add an additional fifth to that [amount] and give it to the *kohein.* The *kohein* will atone for him with the guilt-offering ram and he will be pardoned. [17] If a person sins and did [transgress] one of the commandments of Adonoy that should [**is**] not [**fitting to**] be done, [however,] he is uncertain [that he sinned], and he [nevertheless] incurs guilt and will bear [the burden of] his iniquity. [18] He shall bring an unblemished ram, from the sheep, based on the valuation as a guilt-offering, to the *kohein.* The *kohein* will atone for him, for the error which he did unintentionally, and he did not know, and he will be pardoned. [19] It is a guilt-offering [for] he certainly incurred guilt [**for his sin which he committed he shall bring a guilt-offering**] before Adonoy. [20] And Adonoy spoke to Moshe, saying; [21] If a person sins and wrongfully deviates [**lies**] from [**before**] Adonoy and denies to his friend the possession of a keepsake placed in his trust or, a deposit [regarding money that was loaned or in partnership,] or theft [claiming that something was stolen,] or, oppressed [he withheld wages from] his friend. [22] Or, if he found a lost item and denies it and swears falsely in any of all these [aforementioned instances], whatever someone will do to sin in these instances. [23] It shall be that when he [realizes his] sin and incurs guilt, he shall return the stolen property that he stole, or, the wages that he withheld or, whatever keepsake that was placed in his trust or, the lost item which he found. [24] Or, anything about which he will swear falsely. He shall pay its price and add an additional fifth to that [amount] to whomever that object belongs he shall give it on the day of his guilt-offering. [25] He shall bring his guilt-offering to [**before**] Adonoy an unblemished ram, from the sheep based on the valuation, as a guilt-offering to the *kohein.* [26] The *kohein* will atone for him before Adonoy and he will be pardoned for anything that he will do through which guilt incurs.
