14 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 15 (A)If a person acts unfaithfully and sins (B)unintentionally against the Lords holy things, then he shall bring his (C)guilt offering to the Lord: (D)a ram without defect from the flock, according to your assessment in silver by shekels, in terms of the (E)shekel of the sanctuary, as a guilt offering. 16 And (F)he shall make restitution for that which he has sinned against the holy thing, and shall add to it a fifth part of it and give it to the priest. (G)The priest shall then make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and it will be forgiven him.

17 “Now if a person sins and does any of the things [a]which the Lord has commanded not to be done, (H)though he was unaware, he is still guilty and shall bear his punishment. 18 He is then to bring to the priest (I)a ram without defect from the flock, according to your assessment, as a guilt offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he committed (J)unintentionally and did not know it, and it will be forgiven him. 19 It is a guilt offering; he was certainly guilty before the Lord.”

Guilt Offering

[b]Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, (K)When a person sins and acts unfaithfully against the Lord, and disavows the rightful claim of his neighbor regarding a deposit or a security entrusted to him, or regarding robbery, or he has extorted from his neighbor, or (L)has found what was lost and lied about it and sworn falsely, so that he sins regarding any of the things that people do; then it shall be, when he sins and becomes guilty, that he shall (M)restore what he took by robbery or acquired by extortion, or the deposit which was [c]entrusted to him, or the lost property which he found, or anything about which he swore falsely; (N)he shall make restitution for it [d]in full and add to it a fifth more. (O)He shall give it to the one to whom it belongs on the day he presents his guilt offering. Then he shall bring to the priest his guilt offering to the Lord, (P)a ram without defect from the flock, according to your assessment, as a guilt offering, and (Q)the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he will be forgiven for any one of the things which he may have done to incur guilt.”
