Leviticus 6:1 In-Context

1 The LORD said to Moses,
2 If you sin: by acting unfaithfully against the LORD; by deceiving a fellow citizen concerning a deposit or pledged property; by cheating a fellow citizen through robbery;
3 or, though you've found lost property, you lie about it; or by swearing falsely about anything that someone might do and so sin,
4 at that point, once you have sinned and become guilty of sin, you must return the property you took by robbery or fraud, or the deposit that was left with you for safekeeping, or the lost property that you found,
5 or whatever it was that you swore falsely about. You must make amends for the principal amount and add one-fifth to it. You must give it to the owner on the day you become guilty.
