You can't be compelled to give evidence that would incriminate you. For instance, if you were asked if you had stolen something, you could refuse to answer if you had. Refusing to answer and lying about it are very different things. You have a right not to admit you stole something, but if you stole it and said you didn't, you would be committing perjury, which is a felony.
