Lexham English Bible
6 and he shall bring his guilt offering to[a] Yahweh for his sin that he has committed:[b] a female from the flock,[c] a ewe-lamb or a she-goat,[d] as a sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for him for[e] his sin.
7 “‘If[f] he cannot afford a sheep,[g] he shall bring as his guilt offering for what he sinned two turtledoves or two young doves[h] for Yahweh, one for a sin offering and one for a burnt offering. 8 He shall bring[i] them to the priest, and he shall present that which is for the sin offering first, and the priest[j] shall wring its head off at the back of its neck,[k] but[l] he must not sever it,
