or when a person swears an oath, speaking thoughtlessly with his lips, whether to do evil or to do good, with regard to anything which the individual might speak thoughtlessly in an oath, even if he did not realize it, but he himself has later come to know it and is guilty with regard to one of these oaths --

when an individual becomes guilty with regard to one of these things he must confess how he has sinned,

So the priest will make atonement on his behalf for his sin which he has committed by doing one of these things, and he will be forgiven. The remainder of the offering will belong to the priest like the grain offering.'"

Every male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. It is a perpetual allotted portion throughout your generations from the gifts of the Lord. Anyone who touches these gifts must be holy.'"

"'By these you defile yourselves; anyone who touches their carcass will be unclean until the evening,

These are the ones that are unclean to you among all the swarming things. Anyone who touches them when they die will be unclean until evening.

and the priest who pronounces him clean will have the man who is being cleansed stand along with these offerings before the Lord at the entrance of the Meeting Tent.

"'Do not defile yourselves with any of these things, for the nations which I am about to drive out before you have been defiled with all these things.

You yourselves must obey my statutes and my regulations and must not do any of these abominations, both the native citizen and the resident foreigner in your midst,

for the people who were in the land before you have done all these abominations, and the land has become unclean.

For if anyone does any of these abominations, the persons who do them will be cut off from the midst of their people.

You must not walk in the statutes of the nation which I am about to drive out before you, because they have done all these things and I am filled with disgust against them.

So Moses spoke these things to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites.

"'You must not present to the Lord something blind, or with a broken bone, or mutilated, or with a running sore, or with a festering eruption, or with a feverish rash. You must not give any of these as a gift on the altar to the Lord.

"'If, in spite of all these things, you do not obey me, I will discipline you seven times more on account of your sins.

"'If in spite of these things you do not allow yourselves to be disciplined and you walk in hostility against me,

These are the statutes, regulations, and instructions which the Lord established between himself and the Israelites at Mount Sinai through Moses.
