Trespass is mentioned in both the Old and New testaments, below is provided the Hebrew and Greek words which were translated trespass in the KJV English bible. The words are from the James Strong work and include the reference number so they can be easily crossed referenced by the reader. Understanding the original words and their meaning, assists with understanding the original intent as some English words loose their meaning due to slang use of the word.

Trespass in the old testament, is from the following Hebrew words:

817 - "asham" which is defined as guilt, by implication a fault, also a sin offering. This word 817 is from word 816.

816 - "asham" to be guilty, By implication to be punished or perish, Become or Be made desolate, Destroy X greatly, Become, Be found, Be hold guilty, offend or acknowledge offense (usually against the law)

6588 - "pesha" a revolt (national, moral or religious) rebellion, sin transgression, 6588 is from word 6586

6586 - "Pasha" A primitive root (rather identical with 6585 through the idea of expansion). To break away (from just authority), that is trespass, apostatize, quarrel, offend, rebel, revolt, transgress

4605 - "Ma al" Treachery, that is sin, falsehood, grievously, sore, transgression, trespass, 4605 is from 4608

4608 - "ma aleh" an elevation, that is (concretely) acclivity or platform; abstractly (the relation or state) a rise or (figuratively) priority -- ascent, before chiefest, cliff, that goeth up, going up, hill, mounting up... 4608 is from word 5927

5927 - "alah" a prime root; to ascend, intransitively (be high) or active (mount); used in a great variety of senses, primary and secondary, literally and figuratively -- arise up, cause to ascend up, cause to burn, carry up, cast up, break the day up ... etc.

Trespass in the New testament is from the following Greek word:

264- "ham-ar-tan-o", Properly to miss the mark (and so not share the prize), i.e. figuratively to err, especially morally, to sin-- for your faults perhaps from 1 (as a negative particle) and the base of 3313
