Leviticus 4:27-31
English Standard Version
27 “If (A)anyone of the common people sins unintentionally in doing any one of the things that by the Lord's commandments ought not to be done, and realizes his guilt, 28 (B)or the sin which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has committed. 29 (C)And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill the sin offering in the place of burnt offering. 30 And the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out all the rest of its blood at the base of the altar. 31 And (D)all its fat he shall remove, (E)as the fat is removed from the peace offerings, and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a (F)pleasing aroma to the Lord. (G)And the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven.

English Standard Version
6 [a] The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “If anyone sins and (A)commits a breach of faith against the Lord by (B)deceiving his neighbor in (C)a matter of deposit or security, or through robbery, or (D)if he has oppressed his neighbor 3 or (E)has found something lost and lied about it, (F)swearing falsely—in any of all the things that people do and sin thereby— 4 if he has sinned and has realized his guilt and will restore (G)what he took by robbery or what he got by oppression or the deposit that was committed to him or the lost thing that he found 5 or anything about which he has sworn falsely, he shall (H)restore it in full and shall add a fifth to it, and give it to him to whom it belongs on the day he realizes his guilt. 6 And he shall bring to the priest as his compensation to the Lord (I)a ram without blemish out of the flock, or its equivalent, for a guilt offering. 7 (J)And the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for any of the things that one may do and thereby become guilty.”
