Numbers 5
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說：「
2 Charge the children of Israel, and let them send forth out of the camp every leper, and every one who has in issue of the reins, and every one who is unclean from a dead body.
你命以色列子民把患任何癩病、任何淋病及所有為死屍沾染不潔的人送出營外，
3 Whether male or female, send them forth out of the camp; and they shall not defile their camps in which I dwell among them.
不論男女，都應送到營外去，免得我住在他們中的營幕沾染不潔。」
4 And the children of Israel did so, and sent them out of the camp: as the Lord said to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
以色列子民就如此做了，將他們送到營外；上主怎樣吩咐了梅瑟，以色列子民就怎樣做了。
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說：
6 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Every man or woman who shall commit any sin that is common to man, or if that soul shall in anywise have neglected the commandment and transgressed;
「你訓令以色列子民：不論男女，對近人作了什麼不義的事，因此得罪上主而自覺有罪，
7 [that person] shall confess the sin which he has committed, and shall make satisfaction for his trespass: he [shall pay] the principal, and shall add to it the fifth part, and shall make restoration to him against whom he has trespassed.
他該承認自己所作的不義，除賠償全部損失外，還應另加五分之一給他所害的人。
8 But if a man have no near kinsman, so as to make satisfaction for his trespass to him, the trespass-offering paid to the Lord shall be for the priest, besides the ram of atonement, by which he shall make atonement with it for him.
若此人沒有近親可向他賠償，這賠償就歸上主，屬於司祭。此外尚應獻一贖罪的公綿羊，為自己贖罪。
9 And every first-fruits in all the sanctified things among the children of Israel, whatsoever they shall offer to the Lord, shall be for the priest himself.
以色列子民在奉獻的各種聖物中，凡是給司祭的獻儀，即歸於司祭。
10 And the hallowed things of every man shall be his; and whatever man shall give [any thing] to the priest, the gift shall be his.
每人所奉獻的聖物，應歸自己；但人給與司祭的，應歸於司祭。」
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說：「
12 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whosesoever wife shall transgress against him, and slight and despise him,
你告訴以色列子民說：若某人的妻子背離丈夫，
13 and [supposing] any one shall lie with her carnally, and the thing shall be hid from the eyes of her husband, and she should conceal it and be herself defiled, and there be no witness with her, and she should not be taken;
對他不忠，瞞著丈夫讓人與她同睡交媾，在暗中玷污了自己，又沒有見證，也沒有被捉住，
14 and there should come upon him a spirit of jealousy, and he should be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled; or there should come upon him a spirit of jealousy, and he should be jealous of his wife, and she should not be defiled;
若丈夫心生疑忌，疑忌他的妻子受了玷污；或者心生疑忌疑忌他的妻子，但她實在沒有受玷污；
15 then shall the man bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring his gift for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley-meal: he shall not pour oil upon it, neither shall he put frankincense upon it; for it is a sacrifice of jealousy, a sacrifice of memorial, recalling sin to remembrance.
丈夫就應帶他的妻子到司祭前，為她獻祭，獻十分之一「厄法」的大麥粉，其上不可倒油，也不可加乳香，因為這是因疑忌所獻的素祭，是一回憶罪過的素祭。
16 And the priest shall bring her, and cause her to stand before the Lord.
司祭令她前來，站在上主面前；
17 And the priest shall take pure running water in an earthen vessel, and he shall take of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle of witness, and the priest having taken it shall cast it into the water.
然後用陶器取些聖水，再由會幕地上取些塵土，放入水內。
18 And the priest shall cause the woman to stand before the Lord, and shall uncover the head of the woman, and shall put into her hands the sacrifice of memorial, the sacrifice of jealousy; and in the hand of the priest shall be the water of this conviction that brings the curse.
司祭叫這女人站在上主面前，鬆開她的頭髮，將回憶的素祭品，即為疑忌所獻的素祭品，放在她的掌上，司祭手內拿著給人招致咒罵的苦水，
19 And the priest shall adjure her, and shall say to the woman, If no one has lain with thee, and if thou hast not transgressed so as to be polluted, being under the power of thy husband, be free from this water of the conviction that causes the curse.
然後司祭命那女人起誓，對她說：「若沒有人與你同睡，若你沒有背離丈夫受玷污，願這招致咒罵的苦水於你無害。
20 But if being a married woman thou hast transgressed, or been polluted, and any one has lain with thee, beside thy husband:
但是，如果你背離了丈夫受了玷污，讓丈夫以外的男人與你同睡，──
21 then the priest shall adjure the woman by the oaths of this curse, and the priest shall say to the woman, The Lord bring thee into a curse and under an oath in the midst of thy people, in that the Lord should cause thy thigh to rot and thy belly to swell;
在此司祭叫那女人以詛咒的誓辭起誓，然後對她說：──願上主使你在你民族中成為可咒罵和詛咒的人，使你大腿萎縮，使你肚腹腫脹，
22 and this water bringing the curse shall enter into thy womb to cause thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot. And the woman shall say, So be it, So be it.
願這招致咒罵的水進入你的五臟，使你肚腹腫脹，使你大腿萎縮! 」女人答說：「阿們、阿們。」
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and shall blot them out with the water of the conviction that brings the curse.
隨後司祭將這些咒文寫在紙上，用苦水洗去，
24 And he shall cause the woman to drink the water of the conviction that brings the curse; and the water of the conviction that brings the curse shall enter into her.
令女人喝這招致咒罵的苦水。這招致咒罵的水一進入她內，就給她帶來苦楚。
25 And the priest shall take from the hand of the woman the sacrifice of jealousy, and shall present the sacrifice before the Lord, and shall bring it to the altar.
司祭再由這女人的手內，接過為疑忌所獻的素祭祭品，在上主面前行過搖禮後，放在祭壇上；
26 And the priest shall take a handful of the sacrifice as a memorial of it, and shall offer it up upon the altar; and afterwards he shall cause the woman to drink the water.
再由這素祭祭品內取出一把來作為紀念，放在祭壇上焚燒；以後，纔令女人喝這水。
27 And it shall come to pass, if she be defiled, and have altogether escaped the notice of her husband, then the water of the conviction that brings the curse shall enter into her; and she shall swell in her belly, and her thigh shall rot, and the woman shall be for a curse in the midst of her people.
司祭命她喝水以後，事必靈驗：如果她受了玷污，對丈夫不忠，這招致咒罵的水一進入她內，就給她帶來苦楚；她的肚腹必腫脹，大腿必萎縮；這女人在她的民族中，必成為可咒罵的人。
28 But if the woman have not been polluted, and be clean, then shall she be guiltless and shall conceive seed.
但是，如果這女人沒有受玷污，而是貞潔的，就不致受害，反要生育子女。
29 This is the law of jealousy, wherein a married woman should happen to transgress, and be defiled;
這是關於疑忌事的法律：幾時一個婦人，背離丈夫，受了玷污；
30 or in the case of a man on whomsoever the spirit of jealousy should come, and he should be jealous of his wife, and he should place his wife before the Lord, and the priest shall execute towards her all this law.
或是一個男人心生疑忌，疑忌自己的妻子，他應帶妻子站在上主面前，司祭應對她執行這法律所規定的一切。
31 Then the man shall be clear from sin, and that woman shall bear her sin.
如此，男人可免無罪，女人應自負罪債。」
