Numbers 5:5-10

International Standard Version

On Restitution for Offenses

⁵ The Lord told Moses, ⁶ “Instruct the Israelis that whenever a man or woman does something contained in the list^[a] of the sins of man, thereby acting treacherously against the Lord, then that person stands guilty. ⁷ He^[b] is to confess the sin that he had committed, pay its full compensation, add one fifth to it, and give the compensation to whomever he offended. ⁸ But if the person has no related redeemer to whom compensation may be made, the payment is to be brought to the Lord and given to the priest, in addition to a ram for atonement with which he is to be atoned. ⁹ Every offering from all the most sacred things of the Israelis that they bring to the priest is to belong to him. ¹⁰ Furthermore, everyone’s sacred things belong to him, as well as whatever a person gives to the priest.”
