Numbers 5:1-10

1The Lord gave these instructions to Moses:

2“Command the people of Israel to remove from the camp anyone who has a skin disease or a discharge, or who has become ceremonially unclean by touching a dead person.

3This command applies to men and women alike. Remove them so they will not defile the camp in which I live among them.”

4So the Israelites did as the Lord had commanded Moses and removed such people from the camp.

5Then the Lord said to Moses,

6“Give the following instructions to the people of Israel: If any of the people—men or women—betray the Lord by doing wrong to another person, they are guilty.

7They must confess their sin and make full restitution for what they have done, adding an additional 20 percent and returning it to the person who was wronged.

8But if the person who was wronged is dead, and there are no near relatives to whom restitution can be made, the payment belongs to the Lord and must be given to the priest. Those who are guilty must also bring a ram as a sacrifice, and they will be purified and made right with the Lord.

9All the sacred offerings that the Israelites bring to a priest will belong to him.

10Each priest may keep all the sacred donations that he receives.”
