11 ¶ But if he (A)be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he that hath sinned, shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an [a]Ephah of fine flour for a sin offering, he shall put none [b]oil thereto, neither put any incense thereon: for it is a sin offering.

12 Then shall he bring it to the Priest, and the Priest shall take his handful of it for the (B)remembrance thereof, and burn it upon the altar (C)with the offerings of the Lord made by fire: for it is a sin offering.

13 So the Priest shall make an atonement for him, as touching his sin, that he hath committed in one of these points, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the Priest’s, as the meat offering.

It is a sin offering. 13 In this way the priest will make atonement(G) for them for any of these sins they have committed, and they will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the priest,(H) as in the case of the grain offering.(I)’”
