Leviticus 5:7–13

⁷“ ‘Anyone who cannot affordⁿ a lamb^o is to bring two doves or two young pigeons^p to the Lord as a penalty for their sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. ⁸They are to bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one for the sin offering. He is to wring its head from its neck,^q not dividing it completely,^{r 9}and is to splash^s some of the blood of the sin offering against the side of the altar;^t the rest of the blood must be drained out at the base of the altar.^u It is a sin offering. ¹⁰The priest shall then offer the other as a burnt offering in the prescribed way^v and make atonement^w for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.^x

¹¹“ ‘If, however, they cannot afford^y two doves or two young pigeons,^z they are to bring as an offering for their sin a tenth of an ephah^ba of the finest flour^b for a sin offering. They must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is a sin offering. ¹²They are to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it as a memorial^c portion^c and burn it on the altar^d on top of the food offerings presented to the Lord. It is a sin offering. ¹³In this way the priest will make atonement^e for them for any of these sins they have committed, and they will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the priest,^f as in the case of the grain offering.^g’ ”
