1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Whosoever shall sin, and despising the Lord, shall deny to his neighbour the thing delivered to his keeping, which was committed to his trust; or shall by force extort any thing, or commit oppression;

3 Or shall find a thing lost, and denying it, shall also swear falsely, or shall do any other of the many things, wherein men are wont to sin:

4 Being convicted of the offence, he shall restore

5 All that he would have gotten by fraud, in the principal, and the fifth part besides to the owner, whom he wronged.

6 Moreover for his sin he shall offer a ram without blemish out of the flock, and shall give it to the priest, according to the estimation and measure of the offence:

7 And he shall pray for him before the Lord, and he shall have forgiveness for every thing in doing of which he hath sinned.
