1. The Lord said to Moses,
|
1. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
2. "Command the Isra- elites to send away from camp anyone with a harmful skin disease. Send away anyone who gives off body fluid or who has become unclean by touching a dead body.
|
2. Command H6680 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , that they put out H7971 of H4480 the camp H4264 every H3605 leper H6879 , and every one H3605 that hath an issue H2100 , and whosoever H3605 is defiled H2931 by the dead H5315 :
|
|
3. Send both men and women outside the camp so that they won't spread the disease there, where I am living among you."
|
3. Both male H4480 H2145 and H5704 female H5347 shall ye put out H7971 , without H413 H4480 H2351 the camp H4264 shall ye put H7971 them ; that they defile H2930 not H3808 H853 their camps H4264 , in the midst H8432 whereof H834 I H589 dwell H7931 .
|
|
4. So Israel obeyed the Lord's command and sent those people outside the camp. They did just as the Lord had told Moses.
|
4. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 so H3651 , and put them out H7971 H853 without H413 H4480 H2351 the camp H4264 : as H834 the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , so H3651 did H6213 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
5. The Lord said to Moses,
|
5. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
6. "Tell the Israelites: 'When a man or woman does something wrong to another person, that is really sinning against the Lord. That person is guilty
|
6. Speak H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , When H3588 a man H376 or H176 woman H802 shall commit H6213 any H4480 H3605 sin H2403 that men H120 commit , to do H4603 a trespass H4604 against the LORD H3068 , and that H1931 person H5315 be guilty H816 ;
|
|
7. and must admit the wrong that has been done. The person must fully pay for the wrong that has been done, adding one-fifth to it, and giving it to the person who was wronged.
|
7. Then they shall confess H3034 H853 their sin H2403 which H834 they have done H6213 : and he shall recompense H7725 his H853 trespass H817 with the principal H7218 thereof , and add H3254 unto H5921 it the fifth H2549 part thereof , and give H5414 it unto him against whom H834 he hath trespassed H816 .
|
|
8. But if that person is dead and does not have any close relatives to receive the payment, the one who did wrong owes the Lord and must pay the priest. In addition, the priest must sacrifice a male sheep to remove the wrong so that the person will belong to the Lord.
|
8. But if H518 the man H376 have no H369 kinsman H1350 to recompense H7725 the trespass H817 unto H413 , let the trespass H817 be recompensed H7725 unto the LORD H3068 , even to the priest H3548 ; beside H4480 H905 the ram H352 of the atonement H3725 , whereby H834 an atonement shall be made H3722 for H5921 him.
|
|
9. When an Israelite brings a holy gift, it should be given to the priest.
|
9. And every H3605 offering H8641 of all H3605 the holy things H6944 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , which H834 they bring H7126 unto the priest H3548 , shall be H1961 his.
|
|
10. No one has to give these holy gifts, but if someone does give them, they belong to the priest.'"
|
10. And every man H376 's H853 hallowed things H6944 shall be H1961 his: whatsoever H834 any man H376 giveth H5414 the priest H3548 , it shall be H1961 his.
|
|
11. Then the Lord said to Moses,
|
11. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
12. "Tell the Israelites: 'A man's wife might be unfaithful to him
|
12. Speak H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , and say H559 unto H413 them, If H3588 any man H376 H376 's wife H802 go aside H7847 , and commit H4603 a trespass H4604 against him,
|
|
13. and have sexual relations with another man. Her sin might be kept hidden from her husband so that he does not know about the wrong she did. Perhaps no one saw it, and she wasn't caught.
|
13. And a man H376 lie H7901 with H854 her carnally H7902 H2233 , and it be hid H5956 from the eyes H4480 H5869 of her husband H376 , and be kept close H5641 , and she H1931 be defiled H2930 , and there be no H369 witness H5707 against her, neither H3808 she H1931 be taken H8610 with the manner ;
|
|
14. But if her husband has feelings of jealousy and suspects she has sinned -- whether she has or not --
|
14. And the spirit H7307 of jealousy H7068 come H5674 upon H5921 him , and he be jealous H7065 H853 of his wife H802 , and she H1931 be defiled H2930 : or H176 if the spirit H7307 of jealousy H7068 come H5674 upon H5921 him , and he be jealous H7065 H853 of his wife H802 , and she H1931 be not H3808 defiled H2930 :
|
|
15. he should take her to the priest. The husband must also take an offering for her of two quarts of barley flour. He must not pour oil or incense on it, because this is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of remembrance. It is to find out if she is guilty.
|
15. Then shall the man H376 bring H935 H853 his wife H802 unto H413 the priest H3548 , and he shall bring H935 H853 her offering H7133 for H5921 her , the tenth H6224 part of an ephah H374 of barley H8184 meal H7058 ; he shall pour H3332 no H3808 oil H8081 upon H5921 it, nor H3808 put H5414 frankincense H3828 thereon H5921 ; for H3588 it H1931 is an offering H4503 of jealousy H7068 , an offering H4503 of memorial H2146 , bringing iniquity to remembrance H2142 H5771 .
|
|
16. "'The priest will bring in the woman and make her stand before the Lord.
|
16. And the priest H3548 shall bring her near H7126 H853 , and set H5975 her before H6440 the LORD H3068 :
|
|
17. He will take some holy water in a clay jar, and he will put some dirt from the floor of the Holy Tent into the water.
|
17. And the priest H3548 shall take H3947 holy H6918 water H4325 in an earthen H2789 vessel H3627 ; and of H4480 the dust H6083 that H834 is H1961 in the floor H7172 of the tabernacle H4908 the priest H3548 shall take H3947 , and put H5414 it into H413 the water H4325 :
|
|
18. The priest will make the woman stand before the Lord, and he will loosen her hair. He will hand her the offering of remembrance, the grain offering for jealousy; he will hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
|
18. And the priest H3548 shall set H5975 H853 the woman H802 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , and uncover H6544 H853 the woman H802 's head H7218 , and put H5414 H853 the offering H4503 of memorial H2146 in H5921 her hands H3709 , which H1931 is the jealousy H7068 offering H4503 : and the priest H3548 shall have H1961 in his hand H3027 the bitter H4751 water H4325 that causeth the curse H779 :
|
|
19. The priest will make her take an oath and ask her, "Has another man had sexual relations with you? Have you been unfaithful to your husband? If you haven't, this bitter water that brings a curse won't hurt you.
|
19. And the priest H3548 shall charge her by an oath H7650 H853 , and say H559 unto H413 the woman H802 , If H518 no H3808 man H376 have lain H7901 with H854 thee , and if H518 thou hast not H3808 gone aside H7847 to uncleanness H2932 with another instead of H8478 thy husband H376 , be thou free H5352 from this H428 bitter H4751 water H4480 H4325 that causeth the curse H779 :
|
|
20. But if you have been unfaithful to your husband and have had sexual relations with a man besides him" --
|
20. But if H3588 thou H859 hast gone aside H7847 to another instead of H8478 thy husband H376 , and if H3588 thou be defiled H2930 , and some man H376 have lain H5414 H853 H7903 with thee beside H4480 H1107 thine husband H376 :
|
|
21. the priest will then put on her the curse that the oath will bring -- "the Lord will make the people curse and reject you. He will make your stomach get big, and he will make your body unable to give birth to another baby.
|
21. Then the priest H3548 shall charge H7650 H853 the woman H802 with an oath H7621 of cursing H423 , and the priest H3548 shall say H559 unto the woman H802 , The LORD H3068 make H5414 thee a curse H423 and an oath H7621 among H8432 thy people H5971 , when the LORD H3068 doth make H5414 H853 thy thigh H3409 to rot H5307 , and thy belly H990 to swell H6639 ;
|
|
22. This water that brings a curse will go inside you and make your body unable to give birth to another baby." "'The woman must say, "I agree."
|
22. And this H428 water H4325 that causeth the curse H779 shall go H935 into thy bowels H4578 , to make thy belly H990 to swell H6638 , and thy thigh H3409 to rot H5307 : And the woman H802 shall say H559 , Amen H543 , amen H543 .
|
|
23. "'The priest should write these curses on a scroll, wash the words off into the bitter water,
|
23. And the priest H3548 shall write H3789 these H428 H853 curses H423 in a book H5612 , and he shall blot them out H4229 with H413 the bitter H4751 water H4325 :
|
|
24. and make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse. If she is guilty, the water will make her sick.
|
24. And he shall cause H853 the woman H802 to drink H8248 H853 the bitter H4751 water H4325 that causeth the curse H779 : and the water H4325 that causeth the curse H779 shall enter H935 into her, and become bitter H4751 .
|
|
25. Then the priest will take the grain offering for jealousy from her. He will present it before the Lord and bring it to the altar.
|
25. Then the priest H3548 shall take H3947 H853 the jealousy H7068 offering H4503 out of the woman H802 's hand H4480 H3027 , and shall wave H5130 H853 the offering H4503 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , and offer H7126 it upon H413 the altar H4196 :
|
|
26. He will take a handful of the grain, which is a memorial offering, and burn it on the altar. After that he will make the woman drink the water
|
26. And the priest H3548 shall take a handful H7061 of H4480 the offering H4503 , even H853 the memorial H234 thereof , and burn H6999 it upon the altar H4196 , and afterward H310 shall cause H853 the woman H802 to drink H8248 H853 the water H4325 .
|
|
27. to see if she is not pure and if she has sinned against her husband. When it goes into her, if her stomach gets big so that she is not able to have another baby, her people will reject her.
|
27. And when he hath made her to drink H8248 H853 the water H4325 , then it shall come to pass H1961 , that , if H518 she be defiled H2930 , and have done H4603 trespass H4604 against her husband H376 , that the water H4325 that causeth the curse H779 shall enter H935 into her, and become bitter H4751 , and her belly H990 shall swell H6638 , and her thigh H3409 shall rot H5307 : and the woman H802 shall be H1961 a curse H423 among H7130 her people H5971 .
|
|
28. But if the woman has not sinned, she is pure. She is not guilty, and she will be able to have babies.
|
28. And if H518 the woman H802 be not H3808 defiled H2930 , but be clean H2889 ; then she shall be free H5352 , and shall conceive H2232 seed H2233 .
|
|
29. "'So this is the teaching about jealousy. This is what to do when a woman does wrong and is unfaithful while she is married to her husband.
|
29. This H2063 is the law H8451 of jealousies H7068 , when H834 a wife H802 goeth aside H7847 to another instead of H8478 her husband H376 , and is defiled H2930 ;
|
|
30. It also should be done if the man gets jealous because he suspects his wife. The priest will have her stand before the Lord, and he will do all these things, just as the teaching commands.
|
30. Or H176 when H834 the spirit H7307 of jealousy H7068 cometh H5674 upon H5921 him , and he be jealous H7065 H853 over his wife H802 , and shall set H5975 H853 the woman H802 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , and the priest H3548 shall execute H6213 upon her H853 all H3605 this H2063 law H8451 .
|
|
31. In this way the husband can be proven correct, and the woman will suffer if she has done wrong.'"
|
31. Then shall the man H376 be guiltless H5352 from iniquity H4480 H5771 , and this H1931 woman H802 shall bear H5375 H853 her iniquity H5771 .
