1 "Zgriješi li tko tako što čuje riječi proklinjanja a odbije da svjedoči iako je mogao biti svjedokom jer je ili sam vidio ili doznao pa tako nosi krivnju na sebi;

2 ili ako tko dirne kakav nečist predmet, strv nečiste zvijeri, strv nečista živinčeta ili strv nečista puzavca - i u neznanju postane nečist i odgovoran;

3 ili kad se tko dotakne nečistoće čovječje, bilo to što mu drago od čega se nečistim postaje i toga ne bude svjestan, kad dozna, biva odgovoran;

4 nadalje, kad tko nepromišljeno izusti zakletvu na dobro ili zlo - na što se već čovjek nepromišljeno zaklinje - i toga ne bude svjestan, onda, kad dozna, biva odgovoran;

5 ako, dakle, tko postane odgovoran u bilo čemu od toga, neka prizna počinjeni grijeh.

6 I neka prinese Jahvi kao žrtvu naknadnicu za počinjeni grijeh jednu ženku od sitne stoke, janje ili kozle, kao žrtvu okajnicu. Neka svećenik izvrši nad njim obred pomirenja koji će ga osloboditi od njegova grijeha."

7 "Ako mu sredstva ne dopuštaju da pribavi glavu sitne stoke, neka Jahvi, kao naknadnicu za počinjeni grijeh, prinese dvije grlice ili dva golubića; jedno kao žrtvu okajnicu, a drugo kao žrtvu paljenicu.

8 Neka ih donese svećeniku, a on neka najprije prinese ono što je određeno kao žrtva okajnica. Stisnuvši ga za vrat, neka mu slomi šiju, ali neka glave ne otkida.

9 Neka krvlju žrtve poškropi žrtvenik sa strane, a ostatak krvi neka se iscijedi podno žrtvenika. To je žrtva okajnica.

10 Onda neka drugo prinese kao žrtvu paljenicu prema propisu. Neka tako svećenik nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja za grijeh koji je počinio, i bit će mu oprošteno.

11 Ako mu sredstva ne dopuštaju da pribavi dvije grlice ili dva golubića, neka Jahvi, u zadovoljštinu za počinjeni grijeh, prinese jednu desetinu efe njaboljeg brašna. Ulja u nj neka ne ulijeva niti na nj tamjana stavlja jer je žrtva okajnica.

12 Kada to donese svećeniku, neka svećenik zagrabi punu pregršt kao spomen-žrtvu i na žrtveniku sažeže u čast Jahvi povrh paljenih žrtava. To je žrtva okajnica.

13 Neka tako svećenik izvrši nad tim čovjekom obred pomirenja za grijeh koji je počinio u bilo kojem od tih slučajeva, pa će mu biti oprošteno. Ono ostalo neka pripadne svećeniku kao i od žrtve prinosnice."

14 Još reče Jahve Mojsiju:

15 "Ako tko počini pronevjerenje ogriješivši se nehotično o svete stvari Jahvine, neka za naknadu, kao žrtvu naknadnicu, prinese Jahvi, iz svoga stada, ovna bez mane, vrijedna - po tvojoj procjeni - najmanje dva šekela srebra - prema cijeni hramskog šekela.

16 Neka nadoknadi koliko se ogriješio o svete stvari i tome doda još petinu i neka dadne svećeniku. Neka svećenik nad njim izvrši obred pomirenja ovnom žrtve naknadnice, i bit će mu oprošteno.

17 Ako tko i ne znajući pogriješi i učini štogod što je Jahve zabranio, kriv je, pa neka snosi posljedice svoje krivnje.

18 Neka svećeniku dovede za naknadnicu iz svoga stada ovna bez mane, prema tvojoj procjeni. Neka svećenik nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja za pogrešku što je počinio u neznanju, i bit će mu oprošteno.

19 To je žrtva naknadnica; on je doista bio odgovoran Jahvi."

20 Jahve još reče Mojsiju:

21 "Kad se tko ogriješi i počini pronevjeru prema Jahvi prevarivši svoga bližnjega u pologu ili pohrani, a tako i krađom ili iskorištavanjem svoga bližnjega;

22 ili, nađe li što je bilo izgubljeno pa slaže i krivo se zakune u bilo kojem grijehu što ga čovjek može učiniti;

23 ako tko tako pogriješi i kriv postane, onda ono što je krađom oduzeo ili što je iskorištavanjem namakao; ili polog što mu je bio povjeren; ili izgubljenu stvar što ju je našao;

24 ili ono za što se bio krivo zakleo - neka u cijelosti vrati i, dodavši tome petinu, neka dadne onome kome pripada istoga dana kad spozna svoju krivnju.

25 Neka potom svećeniku za naknadu, kao žrtvu naknadnicu Jahvi, dovede iz svog stada jednoga ovna bez mane, prema tvojoj procjeni,

26 a svećenik neka nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja pred Jahvom, i bit će mu oprošteno, ma kakvo bilo nedjelo kojega je krivac."

4 Neka se obuče u posvećenu košulju od lana; na svoje tijelo neka navuče gaće od lana; neka se opaše lanenim pasom, a na glavu stavi mitru od lana. To je posvećeno ruho koje ima obući pošto se okupa u vodi.

5077. 'The cupbearer of the king of Egypt' means among the things of the body which are subject to the understanding Part of the mind. This is clear from the meaning of 'the cupbearer' as the external or bodily senses that are subordinate or subject to the understanding part of the internal man, dealt with in what follows below; and from the meaning of 'the king of Egypt' as the natural man, dealt with below in 5079. Since the cupbearer and the baker are the subject of the narrative that follows and these mean the external senses belonging to the body, something must first be said about these. It is well known that the external or bodily senses are five in number - sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch - and also that these constitute the entire life of the body. For without those senses the body has no life at all, for which reason also when deprived of them it dies and becomes a corpse. The actual bodily part of the human being therefore is nothing else than a receiver of sensory impressions and consequently of the life resulting from these. The part played by the senses is the principal one and that by the body the instrumental. The instrumental without its principal which it is fitted to serve cannot even be called the body that a person carries around while living in the world; but the instrumental together with its principal, when they act as one, can be called such. The two together therefore constitute the body.

[2] A person's external senses are directly related to his internal ones, for they have been given to a person and placed within his body to serve his internal man while he is in the world and to exist subject to the sensory powers of that internal man. Consequently when a person's external senses begin to rule his internal ones he is done for. When this happens his internal sensory powers are regarded as no more than servants whose function is to reinforce whatever the external senses imperiously demand. When this is the state in which the external senses operate, order in their case has become turned around, a situation dealt with immediately above in 5076.

[3] A person's external senses are, as stated, directly related to his internal ones, in general to the understanding and to the will. Consequently some external senses are subject or subordinate to the understanding part of the human mind, others are subject to the will part. One sensory power specifically subject to the understanding is sight; another subject to the understanding, and after that to the will also, is hearing. Smell, and more especially taste, are subject to both simultaneously, while the power subject to the will is touch. Much evidence could be introduced to show that the external senses are subject to the understanding and the will, and also to show how they are subject; but it would take up too much space to carry the explanation so far. Something of what is involved may be recognized from what has been shown at the ends of preceding chapters about the correspondence of those senses.

[4] In addition it should be recognized that all truths that are called the truths of faith belong to the understanding part, and that all forms of good which are those of love and charity go with the will part. Consequently it is the function of the understanding to believe, acknowledge, know, and see truth - and good also. But the function of the will is to feel an affection for that truth and to love it; and whatever a person feels an affection for and loves is good. But how the understanding influences the will when truth passes into good, and how the will influences the understanding when it puts that good into effect, are matters for still deeper examination - In the Lord's Divine mercy those matters will be discussed at various points further on.

[5] The reason 'the cupbearer' means the senses subject or subordinate to the understanding Part of the internal man is that everything which serves as drink, or which is consumed as such, for example, wine, milk, or water, is related to truth, which feeds the understanding and so belongs to the understanding. Also, because the external or bodily senses play a ministering role, 'a cupbearer' therefore means those senses or what is perceived by them. For in general 'drinking' has reference to truths which feed the understanding, see 3069, 3071, 3168, 3772, 4017, 4018; the specific meaning of 'wine' is truth deriving from good, or faith from charity, 1071, 1798, while 'water' means truth, 680, 2702, 3058, 3424, 4976. From all this one may now see what 'the cupbearer' means.
