New Testament

Leviticus 5:5-9 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. let him do penance for his sin,

6. and let him offer from the flocks a female lamb or a she-goat, and the priest shall pray for him and for his sin.

7. But if he is not able to offer a beast, let him offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the Lord, one for sin, and the other for a holocaust.

8. And he shall give them to the priest, who, offering the first for sin, shall twist back its head to the little wings, so that it adheres to the neck and is not entirely broken off.

9. And he shall sprinkle some of its blood at the side of the altar. But whatever will remain, he shall cause it to drip down to the base, because it is for sin.
