1“ ‘If anyone sins because they do not speak up when they hear a public charge to testify regarding something they have seen or learned about, they will be held responsible.
2“ ‘If anyone becomes aware that they are guilty—if they unwittingly touch anything ceremonially unclean (whether the carcass of an unclean animal, wild or domestic, or of any unclean creature that moves along the ground) and they are unaware that they have become unclean, but then they come to realize their guilt; 3or if they touch human uncleanness (anything that would make them unclean) even though they are unaware of it, but then they learn of it and realize their guilt; 4or if anyone thoughtlessly takes an oath to do anything, whether good or evil (in any matter one might carelessly swear about) even though they are unaware of it, but then they learn of it and realize their guilt— 5when anyone becomes aware that they are guilty in any of these matters, they must confess in what way they have sinned. 6As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they must bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering5:6 Or purification offering; here and throughout this chapter; and the priest shall make atonement for them for their sin.
7“ ‘Anyone who cannot afford a lamb is to bring two doves or two young pigeons to the Lord as a penalty for their sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. 8They are to bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one for the sin offering. He is to wring its head from its neck, not dividing it completely, 9and is to splash some of the blood of the sin offering against the side of the altar; the rest of the blood must be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. 10The priest shall then offer the other as a burnt offering in the prescribed way and make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.
11“ ‘If, however, they cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, they are to bring as an offering for their sin a tenth of an ephah5:11 That is, probably about 3 1/2 pounds or about 1.6 kilograms of the finest flour for a sin offering. They must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is a sin offering. 12They are to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it as a memorial5:12 Or representative portion and burn it on the altar on top of the food offerings presented to the Lord. It is a sin offering. 13In this way the priest will make atonement for them for any of these sins they have committed, and they will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the priest, as in the case of the grain offering.’ ”
The Guilt Offering
14The Lord said to Moses: 15“When anyone is unfaithful to the Lord by sinning unintentionally in regard to any of the Lord’s holy things, they are to bring to the Lord as a penalty a ram from the flock, one without defect and of the proper value in silver, according to the sanctuary shekel.5:15 That is, about 2/5 ounce or about 12 grams It is a guilt offering. 16They must make restitution for what they have failed to do in regard to the holy things, pay an additional penalty of a fifth of its value and give it all to the priest. The priest will make atonement for them with the ram as a guilt offering, and they will be forgiven.
17“If anyone sins and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, even though they do not know it, they are guilty and will be held responsible. 18They are to bring to the priest as a guilt offering a ram from the flock, one without defect and of the proper value. In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the wrong they have committed unintentionally, and they will be forgiven. 19It is a guilt offering; they have been guilty of5:19 Or offering; atonement has been made for their wrongdoing against the Lord.”
1“如果有人当庭作证，却不肯把自己所知所见的说出来，就是犯罪，要担负罪责。 2如果有人接触了不洁净之物，如不洁净的野兽的尸体、家畜的尸体或爬虫的尸体，即使没有察觉也已不洁净，是有罪的。 3如果有人无意中接触了别人的不洁之物，当他意识到后，就有罪了。 4如果有人草率起誓，不论出于善意还是恶意，即使当初没有察觉，后来才意识到，也是有罪的。 5如果有人意识到自己犯了以上任何一种罪，就必须认罪。 6为了赎过，他必须献给耶和华一只母绵羊或母山羊作赎罪祭。祭司要为他赎罪。
7“他若献不起羊，就要献给耶和华两只斑鸠或两只雏鸽，一只作赎罪祭，一只作燔祭。 8他要把它们带到祭司那里，祭司要先用一只鸟献赎罪祭，要扭断鸟脖子，但不可扯掉头。 9要把一些鸟血洒在祭坛边，再把剩下的血倒在坛脚。这是赎罪祭。 10祭司要依照献燔祭的条例献上另一只鸟。这样，祭司为他赎了罪，他就会得到赦免。
11“他若献不起两只斑鸠或雏鸽，就要献一公斤细面粉作赎罪祭。细面粉中不可浇油或加乳香，因为这是赎罪祭。 12他要把细面粉带到祭司那里，祭司要从中取出一把作为象征放在坛上，与献给耶和华的火祭一起焚烧。这是赎罪祭。 13这样，祭司为他赎了罪，他就会得到赦免。剩下的细面粉要归祭司，像献素祭一样。”
献赎过祭的条例
14耶和华对摩西说： 15“如果有人无意中干犯了耶和华圣物的条例，为了赎过，他要从羊群中选一只毫无残疾的公绵羊献给耶和华，或按圣所的秤献上同等价值的银子。这是赎过祭。 16他要赔偿所造成的损失，并加赔五分之一，要把这些都交给祭司。祭司要为他献上公绵羊作赎过祭，为他赎罪，他就会得到赦免。
17“如果有人触犯耶和华的任何诫命，即使他不知道，也是犯罪，必须担当罪责。 18他要从羊群中选一只毫无残疾的公绵羊，或把同等价值的银子带到祭司那里作赎过祭。祭司要为他的无心之过赎罪，他就会得到赦免。 19这是赎过祭，因为他在耶和华面前确实有罪。”
