Numbers 5
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
2 “Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone with a skin disease, anyone who has a bodily discharge, and anyone who is defiled by a dead body.
praecipe filiis Israhel ut eiciant de castris omnem leprosum et qui semine fluit pollutusque est super mortuo
3 You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”
tam masculum quam feminam eicite de castris ne contaminent ea cum habitaverim vobiscum
4 So the Israelites did this, sending such people outside the camp. They did just as the LORD had instructed Moses.
feceruntque ita filii Israhel et eiecerunt eos extra castra sicut locutus erat Dominus Mosi
5 And the LORD said to Moses,
locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
6 “Tell the Israelites that when a man or woman acts unfaithfully against the LORD by committing any sin against another, that person is guilty
loquere ad filios Israhel vir sive mulier cum fecerint ex omnibus peccatis quae solent hominibus accidere et per neglegentiam transgressi fuerint mandatum Domini atque deliquerint
7 and must confess the sin he has committed. He must make full restitution, add a fifth to its value, and give all this to the one he has wronged.
confitebuntur peccatum suum et reddent ipsum caput quintamque partem desuper ei in quem peccaverint
8 But if the man has no relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the LORD and must be given to the priest along with the ram of atonement, by which the atonement is made for him.
sin autem non fuerit qui recipiat dabunt Domino et erit sacerdotis excepto ariete qui offertur pro expiatione ut sit placabilis hostia
9 Every sacred contribution the Israelites bring to the priest shall belong to him.
omnes quoque primitiae quas offerunt filii Israhel ad sacerdotem pertinent
10 Each man’s sacred gifts are his own, but whatever he gives to the priest will belong to the priest.”
et quicquid in sanctuarium offertur a singulis et traditur manibus sacerdotis ipsius erit
11 Then the LORD said to Moses,
locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
12 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them that if any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him
loquere ad filios Israhel et dices ad eos vir cuius uxor erraverit maritumque contemnens
13 by sleeping with another man, and it is concealed from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she was not caught in the act),
dormierit cum altero viro et hoc maritus deprehendere non quiverit sed latet adulterium et testibus argui non potest quia non est inventa in stupro
14 and if a feeling of jealousy comes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—
si spiritus zelotypiae concitaverit virum contra uxorem suam quae vel polluta est vel falsa suspicione appetitur
15 then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of memorial as a reminder of iniquity.
adducet eam ad sacerdotem et offeret oblationem pro illa decimam partem sati farinae hordiaciae non fundet super eam oleum nec inponet tus quia sacrificium zelotypiae est et oblatio investigans adulterium
16 The priest is to bring the wife forward and have her stand before the LORD.
offeret igitur eam sacerdos et statuet coram Domino
17 Then he is to take some holy water in a clay jar and put some of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
adsumetque aquam sanctam in vase fictili et pauxillum terrae de pavimento tabernaculi mittet in eam
18 After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
cumque steterit mulier in conspectu Domini discoperiet caput eius et ponet super manus illius sacrificium recordationis et oblationem zelotypiae ipse autem tenebit aquas amarissimas in quibus cum execratione maledicta congessit
19 And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse.
adiurabitque eam et dicet si non dormivit vir alienus tecum et si non polluta es deserto mariti toro non te nocebunt aquae istae amarissimae in quas maledicta congessi
20 But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and have defiled yourself and lain carnally with a man other than your husband’—
sin autem declinasti a viro tuo atque polluta es et concubuisti cum altero
21 and the priest shall have the woman swear under the oath of the curse—‘then may the LORD make you an attested curse among your people by making your thigh shrivel and your belly swell.
his maledictionibus subiacebis det te Dominus in maledictionem exemplumque cunctorum in populo suo putrescere faciat femur tuum et tumens uterus disrumpatur
22 May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘Amen, Amen.’
ingrediantur aquae maledictae in ventrem tuum et utero tumescente putrescat femur et respondebit mulier amen amen
23 And the priest shall write these curses on a scroll and wash them off into the bitter water.
scribetque sacerdos in libello ista maledicta et delebit ea aquis amarissimis in quas maledicta congessit
24 He is to have the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her and cause her bitter suffering.
et dabit ei bibere quas cum exhauserit
25 The priest shall take from her hand the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.
tollet sacerdos de manu eius sacrificium zelotypiae et elevabit illud coram Domino inponetque super altare ita dumtaxat ut prius
26 Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.
pugillum sacrificii tollat de eo quod offertur et incendat super altare et sic potum det mulieri aquas amarissimas
27 When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will become accursed among her people.
quas cum biberit si polluta est et contempto viro adulterii rea pertransibunt eam aquae maledictionis et inflato ventre conputrescet femur eritque mulier in maledictionem et in exemplum omni populo
28 But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.
quod si polluta non fuerit erit innoxia et faciet liberos
29 This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,
ista est lex zelotypiae si declinaverit mulier a viro suo et si polluta fuerit
30 or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
maritusque zelotypiae spiritu concitatus adduxerit eam in conspectu Domini et fecerit ei sacerdos iuxta omnia quae scripta sunt
31 The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”
maritus absque culpa erit et illa recipiet iniquitatem suam
