Numbers 5:5-10

Confession and Restitution

5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 6 “Speak to the people of Israel, ^aWhen a man or woman commits any of the sins that people commit by breaking faith with the Lord, and that person realizes his guilt, 7 ^bhe shall confess his sin that he has committed. ^{▼▼Hebrew they shall confess their sin that they have committed} ^dAnd he shall make full restitution for his wrong, adding a fifth to it and giving it to him to whom he did the wrong. 8 But if the man has no next of kin to whom restitution may be made for the wrong, the restitution for wrong shall go to the Lord for the priest, in addition to ^ethe ram of atonement with which atonement is made for him. 9 And ^fevery contribution, all the holy donations of the people of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his. 10 Each one shall keep his holy donations: whatever anyone gives to the priest shall be his.”
