Leviticus 5:7

¶ And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.

And if he {H3027} be not able {H1767} to bring {H5060} a lamb {H7716}, then he shall bring {H935} for {H854} his trespass {H817}, which he hath committed {H2398}, two {H8147} turtledoves {H8449}, or two {H8147} young {H1121} pigeons {H3123}, unto the LORD {H3068}; one {H259} for a sin offering {H2403}, and the other {H259} for a burnt offering {H5930}.

"'If he can't afford a lamb, he is to bring as his guilt offering for the sin he committed two doves or two young pigeons for ADONAI - the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.

If, however, he cannot afford a lamb, he may bring to the LORD as restitution for his sin two turtledoves or two young pigeons—one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.

And if his means suffice not for a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass-offering for that wherein he hath sinned, two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, unto Jehovah; one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering.
