|
|

|
11.

|
|
12. You must bring the flour to the priest. The priest will take a handful of the flour as the memorial offering and bring it to the altar as a gift to the Lord. It is a sin offering.
|
12. Then shall he bring H935 it to H413 the priest H3548 , and the priest H3548 shall take H7061 his handful H4393 H7062 of H4480 it, even H853 a memorial H234 thereof , and burn H6999 it on the altar H4196 , according to H5921 the offerings made by fire H801 unto the LORD H3068 : it H1931 is a sin offering H2403 .
|
|
13. The priest will do this to make you pure, and God will forgive you. The part that is left will belong to the priest, just as the regular grain offering."
|
13. And the priest H3548 shall make an atonement H3722 for H5921 him as touching H5921 his sin H2403 that H834 he hath sinned H2398 in one H4480 H259 of these H4480 H428 , and it shall be forgiven H5545 him : and the remnant shall be H1961 the priest H3548 's , as a meat offering H4503 .

|
14. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
15. "You might promise to give something to the Lord. You might sin against me without meaning to by not giving what you promised. If you do that, you must bring a ram that has nothing wrong with it (or the same amount in silver using the official measure ) as a guilt offering.
|
15. If H3588 a soul H5315 commit H4603 a trespass H4604 , and sin H2398 through ignorance H7684 , in H4480 the holy things H6944 of the LORD H3068 ; then he shall bring H935 H853 for his trespass H817 unto the LORD H3068 a ram H352 without blemish H8549 out of H4480 the flocks H6629 , with thy estimation H6187 by shekels H8255 of silver H3701 , after the shekel H8255 of the sanctuary H6944 , for a trespass offering H817 :
|
|
16. You must give what you promised and add one-fifth of that amount as a fine. Give it to the priest and he will use the ram to make you pure, and God will forgive you.
|
16. And he shall make amends H7999 for the harm that he hath done H834 H2398 in H4480 the holy thing H6944 , and shall add H3254 the fifth part H2549 thereto H5921 , and give H5414 it unto the priest H3548 : and the priest H3548 shall make an atonement H3722 for H5921 him with the ram H352 of the trespass offering H817 , and it shall be forgiven H5545 him.
|
|
17. "If you sin and break any of the commands that the Lord said must not be done, you are guilty. Even if you did not know about it, you are still responsible for your sin.
|
17. And if H518 a soul H5315 sin H2398 , and commit H6213 any H259 of these things H4480 H3605 which H834 are forbidden H3808 to be done H6213 by the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 ; though he knew H3045 it not H3808 , yet is he guilty H816 , and shall bear H5375 his iniquity H5771 .
|
|
18. You must bring a ram that has nothing wrong with it (or the same amount in silver) to the priest. The priest will offer the ram, and God will forgive you for the sin you did without knowing it.
|
18. And he shall bring H935 a ram H352 without blemish H8549 out of H4480 the flock H6629 , with thy estimation H6187 , for a trespass offering H817 , unto H413 the priest H3548 : and the priest H3548 shall make an atonement H3722 for H5921 him concerning H5921 his ignorance H7684 wherein H834 he erred H7683 and knew H3045 it not H3808 , and it shall be forgiven H5545 him.
|
|
19. You are guilty, and you must pay the guilt offering to the Lord."
|
19. It H1931 is a trespass offering H817 : he hath certainly trespassed H816 H816 against the LORD H3068 .
