< Numbers 5 >

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
2 Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead:
Praecipe filiis Israel, ut eiiciant de castris omnem leprosum, et qui semine fluit, pollutusque est super mortuo:
3 Both male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camps, in the midst whereof I dwell.
tam masculum quam feminam eiicite de castris, ne contaminent ea cum habitaverint vobiscum.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp: as the LORD spake unto Moses, so did the children of Israel.
Feceruntque ita filii Israel, et eiecerunt eos extra castra, sicut locutus erat Dominus Moysi.
5 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
6 Speak unto the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the LORD, and that person be guilty;
Loquere ad filios Israel: Vir, sive mulier, cum fecerint ex omnibus peccatis, quae solent hominibus accidere, et per negligentiam transgressi fuerint mandatum Domini, atque deliquerint,
7 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense his trespass with the principal thereof, and add unto it the fifth [part] thereof, and give [it] unto [him] against whom he hath trespassed.
confitebuntur peccatum suum, et reddent ipsum caput, quintamque partem desuper ei, in quem peccaverint.
8 But if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass unto, let the trespass be recompensed unto the LORD, [even] to the priest; beside the ram of the atonement, whereby an atonement shall be 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 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.
Omnes quoque primitiae, quas offerunt filii Israel, ad sacerdotem pertinent:
10 And every man’s hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
et quidquid in Sanctuarium offertur a singulis, et traditur manibus sacerdotis, ipsius erit.
11 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man’s wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
Loquere ad filios Israel, et dices ad eos: Vir, cuius uxor erraverit, maritumque contemnens
13 And a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and [there be] no witness against her, neither she be taken [with the manner; ]
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 the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled:
si spiritus zelotypiae concitaverit virum contra uxorem suam, quae vel polluta est, vel falsa suspicione appetitur,
15 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth [part] of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it [is] an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
adducet eam ad sacerdotem, et offeret oblationem pro illa decimam partem sati farinae hordeaceae: non fundet super eam oleum, nec imponet thus: quia sacrificium zelotypiae est, et oblatio investigans adulterium.
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD:
Offeret igitur eam sacerdos, et statuet coram Domino.
17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put [it] into the water:
assumetque aquam sanctam in vase fictili, et pauxillum terrae de pavimento tabernaculi mittet in eam.
18 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which [is] the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse:
Cumque steterit mulier in conspectu Domini, discooperiet 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 the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness [with another] instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse:
adiurabitque eam, et dicet: Si non dormivit vir alienus tecum, et si non polluta es deserto mariti thoro, non te nocebunt aquae istae amarissimae, in quas maledicta congessi.
20 But if thou hast gone aside [to another] instead of thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee beside thine husband:
Sin autem declinasti a viro tuo, atque polluta es, et concubuisti cum altero viro:
21 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell;
his maledictionibus subiacebis: Det te Dominus in maledictionem, exemplumque cunctorum in populo suo: putrescere faciat femur tuum, et tumens uterus tuus disrumpatur.
22 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make [thy] belly to swell, and [thy] thigh to rot: And the woman shall 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 in a book, and he shall blot [them] out with the bitter water:
Scribetque sacerdos in libello ista maledicta, et delebit ea aquis amarissimis, in quas maledicta congessit,
24 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth the curse: and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, [and become] bitter.
et dabit ei bibere. Quas cum exhauserit,
25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman’s hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it upon the altar:
tollet sacerdos de manu eius sacrificium zelotypiae, et elevabit illud coram Domino, imponetque illud super altare: ita dumtaxat ut prius,
26 And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, [even] the memorial thereof, and burn [it] upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water.
pugillum sacrificii tollat de eo, quod offertur, et incendat super altare: et sic potum det mulieri aquas amarissimas.
27 And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, [that], if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, [and become] bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
Quas cum biberit, si polluta est, et contempto viro adulterii rea, pertransibunt eam aquae maledictionis, et inflato ventre computrescet femur: eritque mulier in maledictionem, et in exemplum omni populo.
28 And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
Quod si polluta non fuerit, erit innoxia, et faciet liberos.
29 This [is] the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside [to another] instead of her husband, and is defiled;
Ista est lex zelotypiae. Si declinaverit mulier a viro suo, et si polluta fuerit,
30 Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he be jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law.
maritusque zelotypiae spiritu concitatus adduxerit eam in conspectu Domini, et fecerit ei sacerdos iuxta omnia quae scripta sunt:
31 Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.
maritus absque culpa erit, et illa recipiet iniquitatem suam.
