1 ¶ Y cuando alguna persona cometiere pecado, por haber sido llamado a testificar bajo juramento, y él fuere testigo que vio, o supo, si no lo denunciare, él llevará su iniquidad.

‘Now if a person sins after he hears a public adjuration to testify when he is a witness, whether he has seen or otherwise known, if he does not tell it, then he will bear his guilt.

2 A simismo la persona que hubiere tocado cualquier cosa inmunda, sea cuerpo muerto de bestia inmunda, o cuerpo muerto de animal inmundo, o cuerpo muerto de serpiente inmunda, bien que no lo supiere, será inmunda y será culpable.

Or if a person touches any unclean thing, whether a carcass of an unclean beast or the carcass of unclean cattle or a carcass of unclean swarming things, though it is hidden from him and he is unclean, then he will be guilty.

3 O si tocare a hombre inmundo en cualquier inmundicia suya de que es inmundo, y no lo echare de ver; si después llegare a saberlo, será culpable.

Or if he touches human uncleanness, of whatever sort his uncleanness may be with which he becomes unclean, and it is hidden from him, and then he comes to know it, he will be guilty.

4 T ambién la persona que jurare, pronunciando con sus labios hacer mal o bien, en cualesquiera de las cosas que el hombre profiere con juramento, y él no lo supiere; si después lo entiende, será culpado en una de estas cosas.

Or if a person swears thoughtlessly with his lips to do evil or to do good, in whatever matter a man may speak thoughtlessly with an oath, and it is hidden from him, and then he comes to know it, he will be guilty in one of these.

5 Y será que cuando es culpable en alguna de estas cosas, confesará que cometió pecado;

So it shall be when he becomes guilty in one of these, that he shall confess that in which he has sinned.

6 y traerá por su culpa al SEÑOR por su pecado en que ha pecado, una hembra de los rebaños, una cordera o una cabra por su pecado; y el sacerdote lo reconciliará de su pecado.

He shall also bring his guilt offering to the Lord for his sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement on his behalf for his sin.

7 ¶ Y si no le alcanzare para un cordero, traerá por la culpa de su pecado, dos tórtolas o dos palominos al SEÑOR; el uno por su pecado, y el otro para holocausto.

‘But if he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring to the Lord his guilt offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.

8 Y los traerá al sacerdote, el cual ofrecerá primero el que es como el pecado, y desunirá su cabeza de su cuello, mas no la apartará del todo;

He shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer first that which is for the sin offering and shall nip its head at the front of its neck, but he shall not sever it.

9 y rociará de la sangre del pecado sobre la pared del altar; y lo que sobrare de la sangre lo exprimirá al cimiento del altar; es pecado.

He shall also sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, while the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar: it is a sin offering.

10 Y del otro hará holocausto conforme a la ordenanza; y así lo reconciliará el sacerdote de su pecado en que pecó, y tendrá perdón.

The second he shall then prepare as a burnt offering according to the ordinance. So the priest shall make atonement on his behalf for his sin which he has committed, and it will be forgiven him.

11 M as si su posibilidad no alcanzare para dos tórtolas, o dos palominos, el que pecó traerá por su ofrenda la décima parte de un efa de flor de harina por su pecado. No pondrá sobre ella aceite, ni sobre ella pondrá incienso, porque es pecado.

‘But if his means are insufficient for two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then for his offering for that which he has sinned, he shall bring the tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering; he shall not put oil on it or place incense on it, for it is a sin offering.

12 L a traerá, pues, al sacerdote, y el sacerdote tomará de ella su puño lleno, en memoria suya, y hará perfume sobre el altar sobre las otras ofrendas encendidas al SEÑOR; es pecado.

He shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as its memorial portion and offer it up in smoke on the altar, with the offerings of the Lord by fire: it is a sin offering.

13 Y así lo reconciliará el sacerdote de su pecado en que pecó en alguna de estas cosas, y tendrá perdón; y el sobrante será del sacerdote, como el presente.

So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has committed from one of these, and it will be forgiven him; then the rest shall become the priest’s, like the grain offering.’”

14 ¶ Habló más el SEÑOR a Moisés, diciendo:

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

15 C uando alguna persona hiciere prevaricación, y cometiere pecado por yerro en las cosas santificadas al SEÑOR, traerá por la expiación de su culpa al SEÑOR, un carnero sin tacha de los rebaños, conforme a tu estimación, de dos siclos de plata del siclo del santuario, por su culpa.

“ If a person acts unfaithfully and sins unintentionally against the Lord’s holy things, then he shall bring his guilt offering to the Lord: a ram without defect from the flock, according to your valuation in silver by shekels, in terms of the shekel of the sanctuary, for a guilt offering.

16 Y en lo que hubiere pecado referente a lo santificado, pagará, y añadirá a ello el quinto, y lo dará al sacerdote; y el sacerdote lo reconciliará con el carnero de la expiación de su culpa, y tendrá perdón.

He shall make restitution for that which he has sinned against the holy thing, and shall add to it a fifth part of it and give it to the priest. The priest shall then make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and it will be forgiven him.

17 F inalmente, si una persona pecare haciendo alguna de todas aquellas cosas que por mandamiento del SEÑOR no se han de hacer, sin hacerlo a sabiendas, es culpable, y llevará su iniquidad.

“Now if a person sins and does any of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done, though he was unaware, still he is guilty and shall bear his punishment.

18 T raerá, pues, al sacerdote por expiación de su culpa, según tú lo estimes, un carnero sin tacha de los rebaños; y el sacerdote lo reconciliará de su yerro que cometió por ignorancia, y tendrá perdón.

He is then to bring to the priest a ram without defect from the flock, according to your valuation, for a guilt offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his error in which he sinned unintentionally and did not know it, and it will be forgiven him.

19 E s por su culpa, y ciertamente es culpable contra el SEÑOR.

It is a guilt offering; he was certainly guilty before the Lord.”
