Leviticus 5

1 Si peccaverit anima, et audierit vocem iurantis, testisque fuerit quod aut ipse vidit, aut conscius est: nisi indicaverit, portabit iniquitatem suam.

And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.

2 Anima, quæ tetigerit aliquid immundum, sive quod occisum a bestia est, aut per se mortuum, aut quodlibet aliud reptile: et oblita fuerit immunditiæ suæ, rea est, et deliquit:

Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a carcass of an unclean beast, or a carcass of unclean cattle, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.

3 et si tetigerit quidquam de immunditia hominis iuxta omnem impuritatem, qua pollui solet, oblitaque cognoverit postea, subiacebit delicto.

Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled with, and it be hid from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.

4 Anima, quæ iuraverit, et protulerit labiis suis ut vel male quid faceret, vel bene, et idipsum iuramento et sermone firmaverit, oblitaque postea intellexerit delictum suum,

Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it be that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.

5 agat pœnitentiam pro peccato,

And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he has sinned in that thing:

6 et offerat de gregibus agnam sive capram, orabitque pro ea sacerdos et pro peccato eius:

And he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD for his sin which he has 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 sin autem non potuerit offerre pecus, offerat duos turtures, vel duos pullos columbarum Domino, unum pro peccato, et alterum in holocaustum,

And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his trespass, which he has committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.

8 dabitque eos sacerdoti: qui primum offerens pro peccato, retorquebit caput eius ad pennulas, ita ut collo hæreat, et non penitus abrumpatur.

And he shall bring them to 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 Et asperget de sanguine eius parietem altaris. Quidquid autem reliquum fuerit, faciet distillare ad fundamentum eius, quia pro peccato est.

And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering on 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 Alterum vero adolebit in holocaustum, ut fieri solet: rogabitque pro eo sacerdos et pro peccato eius, et dimittetur ei.

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 has sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.

11 Quod si non quiverit manus eius duos offerre turtures, aut duos pullos columbarum, offeret pro peccato suo similæ partem ephi decimam. Non mittet in eam oleum, nec thuris aliquid imponet, quia pro peccato est.

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 on it, neither shall he put any frankincense thereon: for it is a sin offering.

12 Tradetque eam sacerdoti: qui plenum ex ea pugillum hauriens, cremabit super altare in monimentum eius qui obtulerit,

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 to the LORD: it is a sin offering.

13 rogans pro illo et expians: reliquam vero partem ipse habebit in munere.

And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he has sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering.

14 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

15 Anima si prævaricans ceremonias, per errorem in his, quæ Domino sunt sanctificata, peccaverit, offeret pro delicto suo arietem immaculatum de gregibus, qui emi potest duobus siclis, iuxta pondus Sanctuarii:

If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass to the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with your estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering.

16 ipsumque quod intulit damni restituet, et quintam partem ponet supra, tradens sacerdoti, qui rogabit pro eo offerens arietem, et dimittetur ei.

And he shall make amends for the harm that he has done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it to 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 Anima si peccaverit per ignorantiam, feceritque unum ex his quæ Domini lege prohibentur, et peccati rea intellexerit iniquitatem suam,

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 knew it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

18 offeret arietem immaculatum de gregibus sacerdoti, iuxta mensuram, æstimationemque peccati: qui orabit pro eo, quia nesciens fecerit: et dimittetur ei,

And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and knew it not, and it shall be forgiven him.

19 quia per errorem deliquit in Dominum.

It is a trespass offering: he has certainly trespassed against the LORD.
