          DASV: Leviticus 5    

1 If anyone sins, in that he hears a public curse against
someone who fails to testify, though he saw or knew what
happened and did not speak up, then he will be subject to
punishment for his iniquity.
2 If anyone touches anything ceremonially unclean, whether the
carcass of an unclean wild animal, or the carcass of an unclean
livestock, or the carcass of an unclean creeping thing,
and he is unaware of it but he is unclean and is guilty;
3 or if he touches human uncleanness, whatever uncleanness
by which one may become unclean, even though he is unaware of it,
when he realizes it and is guilty;
4 or if anyone swears an oath rashly with his lips, whether to do
evil or to do good, whatever it is that he has uttered rashly
with an oath, even though he is unaware of it, when he realizes
it and is guilty;
5 when he realizes his guilt in anyone of these cases,
he must confess how he has sinned.

6 Then he must bring to the LORD as a penalty for his sin that
he has committed, a female from the flock, either a lamb or a goat,
for a sin offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for
him concerning his sin.
7 If he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring to the LORD as his
penalty for his sin that he has committed, two turtledoves or two
young pigeons, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
8 He must bring them to the priest, who shall offer first the sin offering.
The priest shall wring its neck, but not sever its head from its body.
9 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side
of the altar; and the rest of the blood must be drained out at the base
of the altar. It is a sin offering.
10 Then the priest must offer the second bird as a burnt offering,
according to the prescribed procedure; and the priest must make
atonement for him concerning his sin that he has committed,
and he will be forgiven.

11 But if he cannot afford two turtle doves, or two young pigeons,
then he must bring his offering for the sin he has committed,
two quarts of fine flour for a sin offering. He should not put
olive oil or any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.
12 Then he must bring it to the priest, and the priest shall
take a handful of it as the memorial portion, and offer it
on the altar, on top of the offerings to the LORD made by fire.
It is a sin offering.
13 In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the
sin that he has committed in any of these things, and he will
be forgiven. The rest of the offering will be the priest's,
just like the grain offering.'"

14 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
15 "If anyone commits a trespass and sins unintentionally in
regard to any of the holy things of the LORD, then he must bring
his guilt offering to the LORD, a ram without defect from of the flock,
convertible into silver shekels according to the shekel of the sanctuary;
for a guilt offering.
16 He must make restitution for whatever he has done amiss against
the holy thing, and must add one fifth to it, and give it to the priest.
Then the priest will make atonement for him with the ram of the
guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.
17 If any one sins, and does any of the things which the LORD has
commanded not to be done; though he did not realize it, yet is guilty,
then he will bear his iniquity.
18 Then he must bring a ram without defect from of the flock,
or its equivalent, for a guilt offering to the priest.
Then the priest will make atonement for him concerning the
unintentional sin, and he will be forgiven.
19 It is a guilt offering, he was certainly guilty before the LORD."
