וַיֹּ֣אמֶר לְאִמּ֡וֹ אֶלֶף֩ וּמֵאָ֨ה הַכֶּ֜סֶף אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֻֽקַּֽח־לָ֗ךְ ואתי [וְאַ֤תְּ] אָלִית֙ וְגַם֙ אָמַ֣רְתְּ בְּאָזְנַ֔י הִנֵּֽה־הַכֶּ֥סֶף אִתִּ֖י אֲנִ֣י לְקַחְתִּ֑יו וַתֹּ֣אמֶר אִמּ֔וֹ בָּר֥וּךְ בְּנִ֖י לַיהוָֽה׃
그 어미에게 이르되 어머니께서 은 일천일백을 잃어버리셨으므로 저주하시고 내 귀에도 말씀하셨더니 보소서 그 은이 내게 있나이다 내가 그것을 취하였나이다 어미가 가로되 내 아들이 여호와께 복 받기를 원하노라 하니라
Ibn Ezra
anyone who sins, having heard admission of guilt specifically, regarding forbidden articles (as in, “you admitted your guilt” [Judges 17:2]). Although Scripture employs brevity, it implicitly warns the witness that he is obliged to testify, since if he does not testify, he is subject to Divine punishment: he has committed an offense . This applies when the witness forgot to testify, and afterward remembered.
