Leviticus 5:1-2
Evangelical Heritage Version

5 When a person sins because he did not speak up, even though he was an eyewitness to a case or knew what happened, and he had even heard a curse pronounced against anyone who failed to testify, he is guilty.[a]

2 When a person touches something unclean, whether it is the carcass of an unclean wild animal or the carcass of unclean livestock or the carcass of an unclean swarming creature, but he does not realize it, he nevertheless is unclean, and he is liable.[b]

Footnotes

  1. Leviticus 5:1 The Hebrew of the verse is difficult, so the translation is uncertain.
  2. Leviticus 5:2 Two different words are used here for guilty and liable: avon and asham. These words are not distinguished in all contexts. They are sometimes used interchangeably as words for guilt. Guilt is liability to punishment or responsibility to make restitution.
