Leviticus 5:14-6:7
Lexham English Bible

Laws for Guilt Offerings

14 Then[a] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 15 “When a person[b] displays infidelity[c] and he sins in an unintentional wrong in any of[d] Yahweh’s holy things, then[e] he shall bring his guilt offering to[f] Yahweh: a ram without defect from the flock[g] as a guilt offering by your valuation in silver shekels[h] according to the sanctuary shekel. 16 And he shall make restitution for what he sinned because of[i] a holy thing and shall add one-fifth of its value[j] onto it and shall give it to the priest. The priest[k] shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.

17 “If[l] a person[m] when he sins violates[n] one from all of Yahweh’s commands that should not be violated,[o] but[p] he did not know, then[q] he is guilty and he shall bear his guilt. 18 He shall bring[r] to the priest a ram without defect from the flock[s] as a guilt offering by your valuation, and the priest shall make atonement for him because of his unintentional wrong (although[t] he himself did not know), and he will be forgiven. 19 It is a guilt offering; he certainly was guilty before Yahweh.”

Additional Laws for Burnt Offerings

6 [u] Then[v] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “When a person[w] displays infidelity[x] against Yahweh and he deceives his fellow citizen regarding[y] something entrusted or a pledge[z] or stealing or he exploits his fellow citizen, 3 or he finds lost property and lies about it and swears falsely[aa] in regard to[ab] any one of these things by which a person[ac] might commit sin, 4 and when[ad] he sins and is guilty, then[ae] he shall bring back the things he had stolen[af] or what he had extorted[ag] or something with which he had been entrusted[ah] or the lost property that he had found, 5 or regarding[ai] anything about which he has sworn falsely,[aj] then[ak] he shall repay it according to[al] its value and shall add one-fifth of its value to it—he must give it to whom it belongs[am] on the day of his guilt offering. 6 And he must bring as his guilt offering to Yahweh a ram without defect from the flock[an] by your valuation[ao] as a guilt offering to the priest, 7 and the priest shall make atonement for him before[ap] Yahweh, and he shall be forgiven anything[aq] from all that he might do by which he might incur guilt.”[ar]
