If he has seen, heard, or known about something he has witnessed, and did not respond to a public call to testify, he will bear his iniquity.o

2 Or if someone touches anything uncleanp—a carcass of an unclean wild animal,q or unclean livestock, or an unclean swarming creaturer—without being aware of it, he is unclean and incurs guilt.s

3 Or if he touches human uncleannesst—any uncleanness by which one can become defiledu—without being aware of it, but later recognizes it, he incurs guilt.

4 Or if someone swears rashlyv to do what is good or evil—concerning anything a person may speak rashly in an oath—without being aware of it, but later recognizes it, he incurs guilt in such an instance.
