Leviticus 5

Further sin offering details for specific violations like failing to testify, touching unclean things, rash oaths, or unintentional wrongs, using doves, flour for the poor, or rams for guilt; also introduces the reparation or guilt offering ('asham') with restitution plus a fifth for trespasses against holy things or others, providing atonement.[2][8]
