Levítico 5

1 Ítem, cuando alguna persona pecare, que hubiere oído la voz del juramento, y él fuere testigo que vio, o supo, si no lo denunciare, él llevará su pecado.

“‘If anyone sins, in that he hears a public adjuration to testify, he being a witness, whether he has seen or known, if he doesn’t report it, then he shall bear his iniquity.

2 Ítem, la persona que hubiere tocado en cualquiera cosa inmunda, sea cuerpo muerto de bestia inmunda, o cuerpo muerto de animal inmundo, o cuerpo muerto de serpiente inmunda, y ella no lo supiere, será inmunda y habrá pecado.

“‘Or if anyone touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean animal, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it is hidden from him, and he is unclean, then he shall be guilty.

3 O si tocare hombre inmundo en cualquiera inmundicia suya, de que es inmundo, y no lo supiere, mas lo supiere después, habrá pecado.

“‘Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness is with which he is unclean, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.

4 Ítem, la persona que jurare, pronunciando de labios de hacer mal, o bien en todas las cosas que el hombre pronuncia con juramento, y él no lo supiere, mas después lo entendiere, el que será culpado en una de estas cosas,

“‘Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil or to do good—whatever it is that a man might utter rashly with an oath, and it is hidden from him—when he knows of it, then he will be guilty of one of these.

5 Y será, que cuando alguno pecare en alguna de estas cosas, confesará aquello en que pecó;

It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall confess that in which he has sinned;

6 Y traerá su expiación a Jehová por su pecado que pecó, una cordera hembra de la manada, o una cabra de las cabras por expiación, y el sacerdote le reconciliará de su pecado.

and he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh for his sin which he has sinned: a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.

7 Y si no alcanzare para un cordero, traerá en expiación por su pecado que pecó, dos tórtolas, o dos palominos a Jehová; el uno para expiación, y el otro para holocausto.

“‘If he can’t afford a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to Yahweh; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.

8 Y traerlos ha al sacerdote, el cual ofrecerá primero el que es por expiación, y quitará su cabeza de delante de su cuello, mas no apartará;

He shall bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one which is for the sin offering. He shall wring off its head from its neck, but shall not sever it completely.

9 Y esparcirá de la sangre de la expiación sobre la pared del altar; y lo que sobrare de la sangre exprimirlo ha al cimiento del altar; y esto será expiación.

He shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.

10 Y del otro hará holocausto conforme al rito; y así le reconciliará el sacerdote de su pecado que pecó, y habrá perdón.

He shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the ordinance; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has sinned, and he shall be forgiven.

11 Mas si no alcanzare su mano para dos tórtolas, o dos palominos, traerá por su ofrenda por su pecado que pecó, la diezma de un efa de flor de harina por expiación. No pondrá sobre ella aceite, ni pondrá sobre ella incienso, porque es expiación.

“‘But if he can’t afford two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then he shall bring as his offering for that in which he has sinned, one tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it, and he shall not put any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.

12 Mas traerla ha al sacerdote, y el sacerdote tomará de ella su puño lleno para su memorial, y hará perfume sobre el altar sobre las otras ofrendas encendidas a Jehová; y esto será expiación.

He shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as the memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, on the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. It is a sin offering.

13 Y así le reconciliará el sacerdote de su pecado, que pecó, en alguna de estas cosas, y habrá perdón; y será del sacerdote, como el presente.

The priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in any of these things, and he will be forgiven; and the rest shall be the priest’s, as the meal offering.’”

14 Habló más Jehová a Moisés, diciendo:

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

15 Cuando alguna persona hiciere prevaricación, y pecare por yerro en las cosas santificadas a Jehová, traerá por su expiación a Jehová un carnero sin tacha del ganado, conforme a tu estimación, de dos siclos de plata del siclo del santuario, por el pecado.

“If anyone commits a trespass, and sins unwittingly regarding Yahweh’s holy things, then he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh: a ram without defect from the flock, according to your estimation in silver by shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering.

16 Y lo que hubiere pecado del santuario, pagará, y añadirá sobre ella su quinto, y darlo ha al sacerdote, y el sacerdote le reconciliará con el carnero de la expiación, y habrá perdón.

He shall make restitution for that which he has done wrong regarding the holy thing, and shall add a fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and he will be forgiven.

17 Ítem, Si alguna persona pecare, e hiciere alguno de todos los mandamientos de Jehová, que no se han de hacer, y no lo supiere, y así pecó, llevará su pecado.

“If anyone sins, doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, though he didn’t know it, he is still guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

18 Y traerá un carnero perfecto de las ovejas, conforme a tu estimación, por expiación, al sacerdote, y el sacerdote la reconciliará, de su yerro que erró sin saber, y habrá perdón.

He shall bring a ram without defect from of the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning the thing in which he sinned and didn’t know it, and he will be forgiven.

19 Pecado es, y pecando pecó a Jehová.

It is a trespass offering. He is certainly guilty before Yahweh.”
