Numbers 5:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

Compensation for Wrongdoing

⁵ The Lord spoke to Moses and told him ⁶ to tell the Israelites this:

Whenever a man or a woman commits any wrong against another person and so in this way is unfaithful to the Lord, that person must be held responsible. ⁷ Such people are to confess the wrong which they have done. They are to make full restitution for their guilt, then add one fifth of its value on top of that and give it to the person they have wronged.
