Leviticus 6:1-7

Contemporary English Version

Other Sins That Need Sacrifices or Payments

(Numbers 5.5-10)

6 ^1-3 (A) The Lord told Moses what the people must do when they commit other sins against the Lord:

You have sinned if you rob or cheat someone, if you keep back money or valuables left in your care, or if you find something and claim not to have it.

⁴ When this happens, you must return what doesn't belong to you ⁵ and pay the owner a fine of 20 percent. ^6-7 In addition, you must either bring to the priest a ram that has nothing wrong with it or else pay him for one. The priest will then offer it as a sacrifice to make things right, and you will be forgiven for what you did wrong.
