14And if a man eats a holy thing unintentionally, then he shall add a fifth to it and give the holy thing to the priest.

15They shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they lift up to Yahweh.

16and so cause them to bear guilt requiring restitution by eating their holy things, for I am Yahweh who sanctifies them.
