* And Yahweh spake unto Moses , saying : * Command the sons of Israel , that they send forth out of the camp , every leper , and every one that hath a flux , and every one that is unclean by the dead : * whether male or female , ye shall send them forth , unto the outside of the camp , shall ye send them , that they make not their camps unclean , in the midst whereof , I , have my habitation . * And the sons of Israel did so , and sent them forth unto the outside of the camp , as Yahweh spake unto Moses , so , did the sons of Israel . * And Yahweh spake unto Moses , saying : * Speak unto the sons of Israel : When any man or woman , shall do aught of an human sin , in acting unfaithfully against Yahweh , and that person shall become aware of his guilt , * then shall they confess their sin which they have done , and he shall make good that wherein he is guilty , in the principal thereof , and the fifth part thereof , shall he add thereunto , and give to him against whom he is guilty , * But if one have no kinsman unto whom he may make goad that wherein he is guilty , then that wherein he is guilty , which is to he restored to Yahweh , shall be the priests , besides the ram of propitiation , wherewith a propitiatory-covering is to be put over him . * And every heave-offering , of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel which they bring near to the priest , unto him , shall it belong . * And , every mans hallowed things , shall be , his own , what any man giveth to the priest , shall be his . * And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying : * Speak unto the sons of Israel , and thou shalt say unto them , When any mans wife , shall turn aside , and commit against him an act of unfaithfulness ; * and a man shall lie with her carnally , and it shall be concealed from the eyes of her husband and he kept close but , she , hath committed uncleanness , though witness , there is none against her , and she , hath not been caught ; * but there shall pass over him a spirit of jealousy , and he shall become jealous of his wife , she having committed uncleanness , or there shall pass over him a spirit of jealousy , and he shall become jealous of his wife , she not , having committed uncleanness , * then shall the man bring in his wife unto the priest , and shall bring in her offering for her , the tenth of an ephah of the meal of barley , he shall not pour thereon oil , nor put thereon frankincense , for a jealousy gift , it is , a reminding gift bringing to mind iniquity . * Then shall the priest bring her near , and cause her to stand before Yahweh ; * and the priest shall take hallowed water in an earthen vessel , and of the dust which shall be upon the floor of the habitation , shall the priest take , and put into the water ; * and the priest shall cause the woman to stand before Yahweh , and shall bare the head of the woman , and shall place upon her hands the reminding gift , it being a jealousy gift , and in the hand of the priest , shall be the deadly water that bringeth a curse ; * and the priest shall put her on oath and shall say unto the woman : If no man hath lain with thee , and if thou hast not turned aside in uncleanness , instead of thy husband , be thou clear from this deadly water that causeth a curse . * But , if , thou , hast turned aside , instead of thy husband and if thou hast made thyself unclean , in that a man hath known thee carnally , other than thy husband , * then shall the priest put the woman on oath with an oath of cursing , and the priest shall say unto the woman , Yahweh give thee up for a curse and for an oath in the midst of thy people , in that Yahweh shall give up thy thigh to fall away , and thy womb to swell : * so shall this water that causeth a curse enter into thy body , causing womb to swell and thigh to fall away . And the woman shall say , Amen , Amen . * Then shall the priest write these curses in a scroll , and wipe them out into the deadly water ; * and shall cause the woman to drink the deadly water that causeth a curse , and the deadly water that causeth a curse shall enter into her . * Then shall the priest take from the hand of the woman the jealousy meal-offering , and shall wave the meal-offering before Yahweh , and bring it near unto the altar ; * and the priest shall take a handful from the meal-offering , a remembrancer thereof , and make a perfume at the altar , and afterwards , shall cause the woman to drink the water . * And as soon as he causeth her to drink , the water , then shall it be , that , if she have fallen into uncleanness and committed unfaithfulness against her husband , as soon as the deadly water that causeth a curse hath entered into her , so soon shall her womb swell and her thigh fall away , thus shall the woman be-come a curse in the midst of her people . * But , if the woman have not fallen into uncleanness , but is pure , then shall she be clear and shall bear seed . * This , is the law of jealousies , when a wife shall turn aside instead of her husband , and fall into uncleanness ; * or when there passeth over , a husband , a spirit of jealousy , and he becometh jealous of his wife , then shall he cause the woman to stand before Yahweh , and the priest shall execute upon her all this law : * thus shall the man be clear of iniquity ; but that woman , shall bear her iniquity .
