Leviticus 5:6-8
The Voice
6 He must present to Me an offering for his guilt as a remedy for the sin he has committed. This purification offering for sin must be a female lamb or goat from the flock. The priest will make atonement for the guilty person’s sin.
These are some cases where a purification offering for sin is required. It is important to note that sacrifice is not some magical cure for sin or its consequences. Before you come to God through the sacrifice, you must realize the error of your ways and confess it. Confession has always been act one of restoration.
Eternal One: 7 But if the guilty person is poor and cannot afford to offer a lamb, then he must bring to Me two turtledoves or two pigeons as a purification offering for sin. One of these will act as the purification offering and the other will be a burnt offering. 8 The guilty person must take them to the priest, and the priest will offer the purification offering for sin first. He will wring the bird’s neck but not separate its head from its body.

6 As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they must bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat(A) from the flock as a sin offering[a];(B) and the priest shall make atonement(C) for them for their sin.
7 “‘Anyone who cannot afford(D) a lamb(E) is to bring two doves or two young pigeons(F) to the Lord as a penalty for their sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. 8 They 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,(G) not dividing it completely,(H)
