8 And he shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and ^awring off its head from its neck, but shall not divide it¹ completely.

9 Then he shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, and the ^arest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.

10 And he shall offer the second as a burnt offering according to the ^aprescribed manner. So ^bthe priest shall make atonement on his behalf for his sin which he has committed, and it shall be forgiven him.

11 ‘But if he is ^anot able to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then he who sinned shall bring for his offering one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a sin offering. ^bHe shall put no oil on it, nor shall he put frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.

12 Then he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it ^aas a memorial portion, and burn it on the altar ^baccording to the offerings made by fire to the Lord. It is a sin offering.
