1 And if anyone does wrong by saying nothing when he is put under oath as a witness of something he has seen or had knowledge of, then he will be responsible:
2 If anyone becomes unclean through touching unconsciously some unclean thing, such as the dead body of an unclean beast or of unclean cattle or of any unclean animal which goes flat on the earth, he will be responsible:
3 Or if he becomes unclean through touching unconsciously any unclean thing of man, whatever it may be, when it is made clear to him he will be responsible:
4 Or if anyone, without thought, takes an oath to do evil or to do good, whatever he says without thought, with an oath, having no knowledge of what he is doing; when it becomes clear to him, he will be responsible for any of these things.
5 And whoever is responsible for any such sin, let him make a statement openly of his wrongdoing;
6 And take to the Lord the offering for the wrong which he has done, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin-offering, and the priest will take away his sin.
7 And if he has not money enough for a lamb, then let him give, for his offering to the Lord, two doves or two young pigeons; one for a sin-offering and one for a burned offering.
8 And let him take them to the priest, who will first give the sin-offering, twisting off its head from its neck, but not cutting it in two;
9 And he is to put drops of the blood of the offering on the side of the altar, and the rest of the blood is to be drained out at the base of the altar; it is a sin-offering.
10 And the second is for a burned offering, in agreement with the law; and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.
11 But if he has not enough money for two doves or two young pigeons, then let him give, for the sin he has done, the tenth part of an ephah of the best meal, for a sin-offering; let him put no oil on it, and no perfume, for it is a sin-offering.
12 And let him come to the priest with it, and the priest will take some of it in his hand, to be burned on the altar as a sign, among the offerings of the Lord made by fire: it is a sin-offering.
13 And the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness: and the rest of the offering will be the priest's, in the same way as the meal offering.
14 And the Lord said to Moses,
15 If anyone is untrue, sinning in error in connection with the holy things of the Lord, let him take his offering to the Lord, a male sheep from the flock, without any mark, of the value fixed by you in silver by shekels, by the scale of the holy place.
16 And he is to make payment to the priest for what he has done wrong in relation to the holy thing, together with a fifth part of its value in addition; and the priest will take away his sin by the sheep of his offering, and he will have forgiveness.
17 And if anyone does wrong, and does any of the things which the Lord has given orders are not to be done, though he has no knowledge of it, still he is in the wrong and he is responsible.
18 Let him come to the priest with a sheep, a male without any mark out of the flock, of the value fixed by you, as an offering for his error; and the priest will take away the sin which he did in error, and he will have forgiveness.
19 It is an offering for his error: he is certainly responsible before the Lord.
20 \6:1\And the Lord said to Moses,
21 \6:2\If anyone does wrong, and is untrue to the Lord, acting falsely to his neighbour in connection with something put in his care, or something given for a debt, or has taken away anything by force, or has been cruel to his neighbour,
22 \6:3\Or has taken a false oath about the loss of something which he has come across by chance; if a man has done any of these evil things,
23 \6:4\Causing sin to come on him, then he will have to give back the thing he took by force or got by cruel acts, or the goods which were put in his care or the thing he came on by chance,
24 \6:5\Or anything about which he took a false oath; he will have to give it all back, with the addition of a fifth of its value, to him whose property it is, when he has been judged to be in the wrong.
25 \6:6\Then let him take to the Lord the offering for his wrongdoing; giving to the priest for his offering, a male sheep from the flock, without any mark, of the value fixed by you:
26 \6:7\And the priest will take away his sin from before the Lord, and he will have forgiveness for whatever crime he has done
1 Se alguém recusar dar testemunho respeitante a um acto mau de que tenha ouvido falar ou que tenha visto, será culpado.
2 Se alguém tocar nalguma coisa considerada ritualmente impura - tal como o corpo morto de um animal proibido para alimento, seja selvagem seja doméstico, ou o corpo dalguns insectos proibidos - será imundo e culpado, ainda que o tenha feito sem saber.
3 Ou se tocar alguma impureza humana de qualquer espécie, torna-se culpado assim que se der conta do que fez.
4 Se alguém fizer um juramento, seja para o bem ou para o mal, e quando chegar a ter consciência de quanto foi irreflectido ao pronunciar tal coisa, será culpado.
5 Em qualquer destes casos a pessoa culpada deverá confessar o seu pecado, e trazer a sua oferta em sacrifício de culpa ao Senhor: um cordeiro fêmea ou uma cabra; o sacerdote fará expiação por ela com respeito a este pecado.
7 Se for demasiado pobre para trazer ao Senhor um cordeiro, deverá trazer então duas rolas ou dois pombinhos como oferta de culpa. O sacerdote oferecerá como sacrifício pelo pecado qualquer deles que lhe foi traduzido primeiro, torcendo-lhe o pescoço, mas sem separar a cabeça do corpo. Depois aspergirá um pouco do sangue sobre o lado do altar, derramando o resto na base; esta é a oferta pelo pecado. O segundo pássaro será oferecido como holocausto, conforme o preceito habitual que já foi indicado. É desta maneira que o sacerdote fará expiação pelo seu pecado e ele será perdoado.
11 Se for tão pobre que não possa trazer nem rola nem pombinho, trará três litros de farinha fina. Mas não deverá amassá-la com azeite, nem pôr-lhe incenso, porque se trata de uma oferta pelo pecado. Deverá trazê-la ao sacerdote, e este tomará um punhado como porção representativa, queimando-a no altar tal como qualquer outra oferta feita a Jeová pelo fogo. Esta será a oferta pelo seu pecado. É desta maneira que o sacerdote fará expiação por ele, por qualquer pecado desta espécie, e será perdoado. O resto da farinha pertence ao sacerdote, tal como aconteceu com a oferta de cereais.
14 E o Senhor disse a Moisés:
15 Se alguém pecar, sem ser intencionalmente, transgredindo por ignorância das coisas sagradas do Senhor, então deverá trazer um carneiro, sem defeito físico, no valor daquilo que estimares ter sido o montante da transgressão em causa ; essa será a oferta que pela sua culpa fará ao Senhor. E restituirá aquilo que defraudou das coisas sagradas, pagando o que deve, acrescido dum quinto. Deverá trazê-lo ao sacerdote que fará expiação por ele com o carneiro de oferta de culpa, e será perdoado.
17 Alguém que desobedece a qualquer lei de Deus, mesmo sem ter tido consciência disso, será culpado, e deverá trazer o seu sacrifício dum valor que estimares ter sido o da transgressão em causa. Este sacrifício será um carneiro sem defeito, que será trazido ao sacerdote como uma oferta de culpa; com ele o sacerdote fará o resgate por essa pessoa, para que seja perdoado por aquilo que tiver feito sem o saber. Deverá ser oferecido como uma oferta de culpa, porque sem dúvida que se tornou culpado perante o Senhor.
