民数记 5
1 耶和华晓谕摩西说：
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “你吩咐以色列人，使一切长大麻风的，患漏症的，并因死尸不洁净的，都出营外去。
Command the children of Israel, that they cast out of the camp every leper, and whosoever hath an issue of seed, or is defiled by the dead:
3 无论男女都要使他们出到营外，免得污秽他们的营；这营是我所住的。”
Whether it be man or woman, cast ye them out of the camp, lest they defile it when I shall dwell with you.
4 以色列人就这样行，使他们出到营外。耶和华怎样吩咐摩西，以色列人就怎样行了。
And the children of Israel did so, and they cast them forth without the camp, as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
5 耶和华对摩西说：
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
6 “你晓谕以色列人说：无论男女，若犯了人所常犯的罪，以致干犯耶和华，那人就有了罪。
Say to the children of Israel: When a man or woman shall have committed any of all the sins that men are wont to commit, and by negligence shall have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and offended,
7 他要承认所犯的罪，将所亏负人的，如数赔还，另外加上五分之一，也归与所亏负的人。
They shall confess their sin, and restore the principal itself, and the fifth part over and above, to him against whom they have sinned.
8 那人若没有亲属可受所赔还的，那所赔还的就要归与服事耶和华的祭司；至于那为他赎罪的公羊是在外。
But if there be no one to receive it, they shall give it to the Lord, and it shall be the priest’s, besides the ram that is offered for expiation, to be an atoning sacrifice.
9 以色列人一切的圣物中，所奉给祭司的举祭都要归与祭司。
All the firstfruits also, which the children of Israel offer, belong to the priest:
10 各人所分别为圣的物，无论是什么，都要归给祭司。”
And whatsoever is offered into the sanctuary by every one, and is delivered into the hands of the priest, it shall be his.
11 耶和华对摩西说：
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 “你晓谕以色列人说：人的妻若有邪行，得罪她丈夫，
Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man whose wife shall have gone astray, and contemning her husband,
13 有人与她行淫，事情严密，瞒过她丈夫，而且她被玷污，没有作见证的人，当她行淫的时候也没有被捉住，
Shall have slept with another man, and her husband cannot discover it, but the adultery is secret, and cannot be proved by witnesses, because she was not found in the adultery:
14 她丈夫生了疑恨的心，疑恨她，她是被玷污，或是她丈夫生了疑恨的心，疑恨她，她并没有被玷污，
If the spirit of jealousy stir up the husband against his wife, who either is defiled, or is charged with false suspicion,
15 这人就要将妻送到祭司那里，又为她带着大麦面伊法十分之一作供物，不可浇上油，也不可加上乳香；因为这是疑恨的素祭，是思念的素祭，使人思念罪孽。
He shall bring her to the priest, and shall offer an oblation for her, the tenth part of a measure of barley meal: he shall not pour oil thereon, nor put frankincense upon it: because it is a sacrifice of jealousy, and an oblation searching out adultery.
16 “祭司要使那妇人近前来，站在耶和华面前。
The priest therefore shall offer it, and set it before the Lord.
17 祭司要把圣水盛在瓦器里，又从帐幕的地上取点尘土，放在水中。
And he shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and he shall cast a little earth of the pavement of the tabernacle into it.
18 祭司要叫那妇人蓬头散发，站在耶和华面前，把思念的素祭，就是疑恨的素祭，放在她手中。祭司手里拿着致咒诅的苦水，
And when the woman shall stand before the Lord, he shall uncover her head, and shall, put on her hands the sacrifice of remembrance, and the oblation of jealousy: and he himself shall hold the most bitter waters, whereon he hath heaped curses with execration.
19 要叫妇人起誓，对她说：‘若没有人与你行淫，也未曾背着丈夫做污秽的事，你就免受这致咒诅苦水的灾。
And he shall adjure her, and shall say: If another man hath not slept with thee, and if thou be not defiled by forsaking thy husband’s bed, these most bitter waters, on which I have heaped curses, shall not hurt thee.
20 你若背着丈夫行了污秽的事，在你丈夫以外有人与你行淫，
But if thou hast gone aside from thy husband, and art defiled, and hast lain with another man:
21 （祭司叫妇人发咒起誓，）愿耶和华叫你大腿消瘦，肚腹发胀，使你在你民中被人咒诅，成了誓语；
These curses shall light upon thee: The Lord make thee a curse, and an example for all among his people: may he make thy thigh to rot, and may thy belly swell and burst asunder.
22 并且这致咒诅的水入你的肠中，要叫你的肚腹发胀，大腿消瘦。’妇人要回答说：‘阿们，阿们。’
Let the cursed waters enter into thy belly, and may thy womb swell and thy thigh rot. And the woman shall answer, Amen, amen.
23 “祭司要写这咒诅的话，将所写的字抹在苦水里，
And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and shall wash them out with the most bitter waters, upon which he hath heaped the curses,
24 又叫妇人喝这致咒诅的苦水；这水要进入她里面变苦了。
And he shall give them her to drink. And when she hath drunk them up,
25 祭司要从妇人的手中取那疑恨的素祭，在耶和华面前摇一摇，拿到坛前；
The priest shall take from her hand the sacrifice of jealousy, and shall elevate it before the Lord, and shall put it upon the altar: yet so as first,
26 又要从素祭中取出一把，作为这事的纪念，烧在坛上，然后叫妇人喝这水。
To take a handful of the sacrifice of that which is offered, and burn it upon the altar: and so give the most bitter waters to the woman to drink.
27 叫她喝了以后，她若被玷污，得罪了丈夫，这致咒诅的水必进入她里面变苦了，她的肚腹就要发胀，大腿就要消瘦，那妇人便要在他民中被人咒诅。
And when she hath drunk them, if she be defiled, and having despised her husband be guilty of adultery, the malediction shall go through her, and her belly swelling, her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse, and an example to all the people.
28 若妇人没有被玷污，却是清洁的，就要免受这灾，且要怀孕。
But if she be not defiled, she shall not be hurt, and shall bear children.
29 “妻子背着丈夫行了污秽的事，
This is the law of jealousy. If a woman hath gone aside from her husband, and be defiled,
30 或是人生了疑恨的心，疑恨他的妻，就有这疑恨的条例。那时他要叫妇人站在耶和华面前，祭司要在她身上照这条例而行。
And the husband stirred up by the spirit of jealousy bring her before the Lord, and the priest do to her according to all things that are here written:
31 男人就为无罪，妇人必担当自己的罪孽。”
The husband shall be blameless, and she shall bear her iniquity.
