1 T he Lord said to Moses,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
2 C ommand the Israelites that they put outside the camp every leper and everyone who has a discharge, and whoever is defiled by the dead.
Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is unclean by the dead:
3 B oth male and female you shall put out; without the camp you shall put them, that they may not defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell.
both male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camp, in the midst whereof I dwell.
4 T he Israelites did so, and put them outside the camp; as the Lord said to Moses, so the Israelites did.
And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp; as Jehovah spake unto Moses, so did the children of Israel.
5 A nd the Lord said to Moses,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
6 S ay to the Israelites, When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit by breaking faith with the Lord, and that person is guilty,
Speak unto the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, so as to trespass against Jehovah, and that soul shall be guilty;
7 T hen he shall confess the sin which he has committed, and he shall make restitution for his wrong in full, and add a fifth to it, and give it to him whom he has wronged.
then he shall confess his sin which he hath done: and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, and add unto it the fifth part thereof, and give it unto him in respect of whom he hath been guilty.
8 B ut if the man has no kinsman to whom the restitution may be made, let it be given to the Lord for the priest, besides the ram of atonement with which atonement shall be made for the offender.
But if the man have no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made unto Jehovah shall be the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, whereby atonement shall be made for him.
9 A nd every offering of all the holy things of the Israelites which they bring to the priest shall be his.
And every heave-offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present unto the priest, shall be his.
10 A nd every man’s hallowed things shall be the priest’s; whatever any man gives the priest shall be his.
And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
11 A nd the Lord said to Moses,
And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
12 S ay to the Israelites, If any man’s wife goes astray and commits an offense of guilt against him,
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
13 A nd a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband and it is kept secret though she is defiled, and there is no witness against her nor was she taken in the act,
and a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and there be no witness against her, and she be not taken in the act;
14 A nd if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he is jealous and suspicious of his wife who has defiled herself—or if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he is jealous and suspicious of his wife though she has not defiled herself—
and the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled:
15 T hen shall the man bring his wife to the priest, and he shall bring the offering required of her, a tenth of an ephah of barley meal; but he shall pour no oil upon it nor put frankincense on it, for it is a cereal offering of jealousy and suspicion, a memorial offering bringing iniquity to remembrance.
then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and shall bring her oblation for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is a meal-offering of jealousy, a meal-offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
16 A nd the priest shall bring her near and set her before the Lord.
And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before Jehovah:
17 A nd the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel and take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it in the water.
and the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water.
18 A nd the priest shall set the woman before the Lord, and let the hair of the woman’s head hang loose, and put the meal offering of remembrance in her hands, which is the jealousy and suspicion offering. And the priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that brings the curse.
And the priest shall set the woman before Jehovah, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal-offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal-offering of jealousy: and the priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that causeth the curse.
19 T hen the priest shall make her take an oath, and say to the woman, If no man has lain with you and if you have not gone astray to uncleanness with another instead of your husband, then be free from any effect of this water of bitterness which brings the curse.
And the priest shall cause her to swear, and shall say unto the woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou have not gone aside to uncleanness, being under thy husband, be thou free from this water of bitterness that causeth the curse.
20 B ut if you have gone astray and you are defiled, some man having lain with you beside your husband,
But if thou have gone aside, being under thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee besides thy husband:
21 T hen the priest shall make the woman take the oath of the curse, and say to the woman, The Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people when the Lord makes your thigh fall away and your body swell.
then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, Jehovah make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when Jehovah doth make thy thigh to fall away, and thy body to swell;
22 M ay this water that brings the curse go into your bowels and make your body swell and your thigh fall away. And the woman shall say, So let it be, so let it be.
and this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, and make thy body to swell, and thy thigh to fall away. And the woman shall say, Amen, Amen.
23 T he priest shall then write these curses in a book and shall wash them off into the water of bitterness;
And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness:
24 A nd he shall cause the woman to drink the water of bitterness that brings the curse, and the water that brings the curse shall enter into her bitterly.
and he shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causeth the curse; and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her and become bitter.
25 T hen the priest shall take the cereal offering of jealousy and suspicion out of the woman’s hand and shall wave the offering before the Lord and offer it upon the altar.
And the priest shall take the meal-offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal-offering before Jehovah, and bring it unto the altar:
26 A nd the priest shall take a handful of the cereal offering as the memorial portion of it and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water.
and the priest shall take a handful of the meal-offering, as the memorial thereof, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.
27 A nd when he has made her drink the water, then if she is defiled and has committed a trespass against her husband, the curse water which she drank shall be bitterness and cause her body to swell and her thigh to fall away, and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
And when he hath made her drink the water, then it shall come to pass, if she be defiled, and have committed a trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her and become bitter, and her body shall swell, and her thigh shall fall away: and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
28 B ut if the woman is not defiled and is clean, then she shall be free and be able to have children.
And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
29 T his is the law of jealousy and suspicion when a wife goes aside to another instead of her husband and is defiled,
This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goeth aside, and is defiled;
30 O r when the spirit of jealousy and suspicion comes upon a man and he is jealous and suspicious of his wife; then shall he set the woman before the Lord, and the priest shall execute on her all this law.
or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon a man, and he is jealous of his wife; then shall he set the woman before Jehovah, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law.
31 T he shall be free from iniquity and guilt, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.
And the man shall be free from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.
