when

Leviticus 5:1-4,17 And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of it; if he do not utter it...

Leviticus 6:2,3 If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD, and lie to his neighbor in that which was delivered him to keep...

and that person. This expression does not merely refer to the actual criminality of the person, but to his consciousness of guilt respecting it; for this case must be distinguished from that of a person detected in dishonesty, which he attempted to conceal.



Context
Restitution for Trespasses

5And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 6Speak to the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the LORD, and that person be guilty; 7Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense his trespass with the principal thereof, and add to it the fifth part thereof, and give it to him against whom he has trespassed. 8But if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass to, let the trespass be recompensed to the LORD, even to the priest; beside the ram of the atonement, whereby an atonement shall be made for him. 9And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his. 10And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his.
