Leviticus 5:11
5:11 “ ‘If he cannot afford31 two turtledoves or two young pigeons,32 he must bring as his offering for his sin which he has committed33 a tenth of an ephah34 of choice wheat flour35 for a sin offering. He must not place olive oil on it and he must not put frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering.
31 | tn Heb “and if his hand does not reach [or is not sufficient] to”; cf. NASB “if his means are insufficient for.” The expression is the same as that in Lev 5:7 above except for the verb: נָשַׂג (nasag, “to collect, to reach, to be sufficient”) is used here, but נָגַע (nagah, “to touch, to reach”) is used in v. 7. Smr has the former in both v. 7 and 11. |

33 | tn Heb “and he shall bring his offering which he sinned.” Like the similar expression in v. 7 above (see the note there), this is an abbreviated form of Lev 5:6, “and he shall bring his [penalty for] guilt to the Lord for his sin which he committed.” Here the words “to the Lord for his sin” have been left out, and “his [penalty for] guilt” has been changed to “his offering.” |
