1 And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity. 2 Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty. 3 Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty. 4 Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever it be that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these. 5 And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that thing: 6 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.

7 And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. 8 And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and wring off his head from his neck, but shall not divide it asunder: 9 And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering. 10 And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.

11 But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense thereon: for it is a sin offering. 12 Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, even a memorial thereof, and burn it on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: it is a sin offering. 13 And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering.

14 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 15 If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering: 16 And he shall make amends for the harm that he hath done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall be forgiven him.

17 And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD; though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity. 18 And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and it shall be forgiven him. 19 It is a trespass offering: he hath certainly trespassed against the LORD.

1 En as iemand sondig dat hy die luid uitgesproke beswering hoor, terwyl hy getuie was, dit gesien het of daarvan weet as hy naamlik dit nie te kenne gee nie en so sy ongeregtigheid moet dra;

2 of as iemand enigiets aanraak wat onrein is die aas van 'n onrein wilde dier of die aas van onrein vee of die aas van onrein gedierte wat rondkruip en dit vir hom verborge was, maar hy onrein geword het en skuldig is;

3 of as hy iets onreins van 'n mens aanraak volgens al die onreinheid waardeur hy hom kan verontreinig en dit vir hom verborge was, maar hy dit te wete gekom het en skuldig is;

4 of as iemand sweer terwyl hy onverskillig met die lippe praat om kwaad of goed te doen volgens alles wat 'n mens met 'n eed onverskillig kan praat en dit vir hom verborge was, maar hy dit te wete gekom het en skuldig is aan een van hierdie dinge;

5 as hy dan aan een van hierdie dinge skuldig is, moet hy bely waar hy teen gesondig het,

6 en as boete vir die sonde wat hy gedoen het, aan die HERE 'n ooi bring van die kleinvee, 'n skaaplam of 'n bok, as sondoffer. En die priester moet vir hom versoening doen weens sy sonde.

7 Maar as hy nie 'n stuk kleinvee kan bekostig nie, moet hy as boete vir wat hy gesondig het, twee tortelduiwe of twee jong duiwe aan die HERE bring, een as sondoffer en een as brandoffer;

8 en hy moet hulle na die priester bring, wat die een eerste moet offer wat as sondoffer bedoel is, en sy kop vlak voor sy nek afknyp sonder om dit af te trek.

9 Dan moet hy van die bloed van die sondoffer teen die kant van die altaar sprinkel; maar wat oorbly van die bloed, moet aan die onderkant van die altaar uitgedruk word; dit is 'n sondoffer.

10 En die ander een moet hy as brandoffer volgens voorskrif berei. So moet die priester dan vir hom versoening doen weens die sonde wat hy gedoen het, en dit sal hom vergewe word.

11 Maar as hy nie twee tortelduiwe of twee jong duiwe kan bekostig nie, moet hy as offer vir wat hy gesondig het, die tiende van 'n efa fynmeel as sondoffer bring. Hy moet geen olie daarop gooi en geen wierook daar byvoeg nie, want dit is 'n sondoffer.

12 En hy moet dit na die priester bring, en die priester moet daar 'n handvol van neem as die gedenkoffer en dit op die altaar oor die vuuroffers van die HERE aan die brand steek; dit is 'n sondoffer.

13 So moet die priester dan vir hom versoening doen vir die sonde wat hy gedoen het in enigeen van hierdie gevalle, en dit sal hom vergewe word; verder behoort dit aan die priester net soos die spysoffer.

14 Ook het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:

15 As iemand in iets ontrou handel en in swakheid sondig met betrekking tot een van die heilige gawes van die HERE, moet hy as boete aan die HERE bring 'n ram sonder gebrek van die kleinvee, na jou skatting van die waarde in sikkels silwer, volgens die sikkel van die heiligdom, as 'n skuldoffer.

16 En hy moet vir wat hy ten opsigte van die heilige gawes gesondig het, vergoeding gee en nog die vyfde deel daarvan byvoeg en dit aan die priester gee; en die priester moet vir hom versoening doen deur die skuldofferram, en dit sal hom vergewe word.

17 En as iemand sondig en onbewus enigiets doen wat die HERE verbied het, en skuldig word en sy ongeregtigheid moet dra,

18 dan moet hy van die kleinvee, na jou skatting, 'n ram sonder gebrek as skuldoffer na die priester bring; en die priester moet vir hom versoening doen vir die misdryf wat hy sonder opset, onbewus begaan het; en dit sal hom vergewe word.

19 Dit is 'n skuldoffer; hy is sekerlik skuldig teenoor die HERE.
