Leviticus 5:7–13

⁷“ ‘If^z he cannot afford a sheep,^a he shall bring as his guilt offering for what he sinned two turtledoves or two young doves^b for Yahweh, one for a sin offering and one for a burnt offering. ⁸He shall bring^c them to the priest, and he shall present that which is for the sin offering first, and the priest^d shall wring its head off at the back of its neck,^e but^f he must not sever it, ⁹and he shall spatter some of^g the sin offering’s blood on the altar’s side, and the leftover blood must be drained out on the altar’s base; it is a sin offering. ¹⁰The second^h bird he must prepare as a burnt offering according to the regulation, and the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin that he has committed,ⁱ and he shall be forgiven.

¹¹“ ‘But^j if he cannot afford^k two turtledoves or two young doves,^l then,^m because he has sinned, he shall bring as his offering a tenth of anⁿ ephah of finely milled flour as a sin offering. He must not put^o oil on it, nor should he put frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering. ¹²He shall bring^p it to the priest, and the priest shall take a handful of it^q for its token portion, and he shall turn it to smoke on the altar in addition to^r the offerings made by fire to Yahweh; it is a sin offering. ¹³Thus^s the priest shall make atonement for him because of the sin that he has committed^t in any of these,^u and he shall be forgiven. It shall be^v for the priest, like the grain offering.’ ”
