Graduated Offerings for the Poor

Leviticus 5:7-13

`And if his hand reach not to the sufficiency of a lamb, then he hath brought in his guilt-offering--he who hath sinned--two turtle-doves or two young pigeons to Jehovah, one for a sin-offering, and one for a burnt-offering;

and he hath brought them in unto the priest, and hath brought near that which is for a sin-offering first, and hath wrung off its head from its neck, and doth not separate it ,

and he hath sprinkled of the blood of the sin-offering on the side of the altar, and that which is left of the blood is wrung out at the foundation of the altar; it is a sin-offering.

`And the second he maketh a burnt-offering, according to the ordinance, and the priest hath made atonement for him, because of his sin which he hath sinned, and it hath been forgiven him.

`And if his hand reach not to two turtle-doves, or to two young pigeons, then he hath brought in his offering--he who hath sinned--a tenth of an ephah of flour for a sin-offering; he putteth no oil on it, nor doth he put on it frankincense, for it is a sin-offering,

and he hath brought it in unto the priest, and the priest hath taken a handful from it--the fulness of his hand--its memorial--and hath made perfume on the altar, according to the fire-offerings of Jehovah; it is a sin-offering.

`And the priest hath made atonement for him, for his sin which he hath sinned against one of these, and it hath been forgiven him, and the remnant hath been to the priest, like the present.'
