Numbers 5
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Yahvé habló a Moisés, diciendo:
2 “Command the sons of Israel, and they send out of the camp every leper, and everyone with discharging, and everyone defiled by a body;
“Ordena a los hijos de Israel que saquen del campamento a todo leproso, a todo el que tenga flujo y a todo el que esté impuro por un cadáver.
3 you send out from male even to female; you send them to the outside of the camp and they do not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell.”
Pondrán fuera del campamento tanto a los hombres como a las mujeres, para que no contaminen su campamento, en medio del cual yo habito”.
4 And the sons of Israel do so, and they send them out to the outside of the camp; as YHWH has spoken to Moses so the sons of Israel have done.
Los hijos de Israel lo hicieron, y los pusieron fuera del campamento; como Yahvé habló a Moisés, así lo hicieron los hijos de Israel.
5 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Yahvé habló a Moisés, diciendo:
6 “Speak to the sons of Israel: Man or woman, when they do any of the sins of man, by committing a trespass against YHWH, and that person [is] guilty,
“Habla a los hijos de Israel: ‘Cuando un hombre o una mujer cometa cualquier pecado de los que cometen los hombres, de modo que transgreda a Yahvé, y esa alma sea culpable,
7 and they have confessed their sin which they have done, then he has restored his guilt in its principal, and is adding its fifth to it, and has given [it] to him in reference to whom he has been guilty.
entonces confesará su pecado que ha cometido; y hará la restitución de su culpa en su totalidad, añadiendo a ella la quinta parte de la misma, y se la dará a aquel respecto del cual ha sido culpable.
8 And if the man has no redeemer to restore the guilt to, the guilt which is restored [is] to YHWH for the priest, apart from the ram of the atonements, whereby he makes atonement for him.
Pero si el hombre no tiene pariente a quien hacer la restitución por la culpa, la restitución por la culpa que se haga a Yahvé será del sacerdote, además del carnero de la expiación, con el cual se hará la expiación por él.
9 And every raised-offering of all the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they bring near to the priest, becomes his;
Toda ofrenda de todas las cosas santas de los hijos de Israel, que presenten al sacerdote, será suya.
10 and any man’s hallowed things become his; that which any man gives to the priest becomes his.”
Las cosas santas de cada uno serán suyas; todo lo que cualquiera dé al sacerdote, será suyo”.
11 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Yahvé habló a Moisés diciendo:
12 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When any man’s wife turns aside, and has committed a trespass against him,
“Habla a los hijos de Israel y diles: ‘Si la mujer de un hombre se extravía y le es infiel,
13 and a man has lain with her [with] the seed [from] intercourse, and it has been hid from the eyes of her husband, and concealed, and she has been defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she has not been caught,
y un hombre se acuesta con ella carnalmente, y se oculta a los ojos de su marido y esto se mantiene oculto, y ella se mancha, no hay testigo contra ella, y no es tomada en el acto;
14 and a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has been defiled—or a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has not been defiled—
y el espíritu de celos se apodera de él, y tiene celos de su mujer y ella está contaminada; o si el espíritu de celos se apodera de él, y tiene celos de su mujer y ella no está contaminada;
15 then the man has brought in his wife to the priest, and he has brought in her offering for her—a tenth of the ephah of barley meal; he does not pour oil on it, nor does he put frankincense on it, for it [is] a present of jealousy, a present of memorial, causing remembrance of iniquity.
entonces el hombre traerá a su mujer al sacerdote, y traerá su ofrenda por ella: una décima parte de un efa de harina de cebada. No derramará aceite ni pondrá incienso sobre ella, porque es una ofrenda de celos, una ofrenda de memoria, que trae la iniquidad a la memoria.
16 And the priest has brought her near, and has caused her to stand before YHWH,
El sacerdote la acercará y la pondrá delante de Yahvé.
17 and the priest has taken holy water in an earthen vessel, and the priest takes of the dust which is on the floor of the Dwelling Place, and has put [it] into the water,
El sacerdote tomará agua bendita en una vasija de barro; y el sacerdote tomará un poco del polvo que está en el piso del tabernáculo y lo pondrá en el agua.
18 and the priest has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and has uncovered the woman’s head, and has given the present of the memorial into her hands (it [is] a present of jealousy), and the bitter waters which cause the curse are in the hand of the priest.
El sacerdote pondrá a la mujer delante de Yahvé, y dejará suelto el cabello de la cabeza de la mujer, y pondrá en sus manos la ofrenda de comida conmemorativa, que es la ofrenda de celos. El sacerdote tendrá en su mano el agua de la amargura que trae la maldición.
19 And the priest has caused her to swear, and has said to the woman, If no man has lain with you, and if you have not turned aside [to] uncleanness under your husband, be free from these bitter waters which cause the curse;
El sacerdote le hará prestar juramento y le dirá a la mujer: “Si ningún hombre se ha acostado contigo y si no te has desviado a la impureza, estando bajo la autoridad de tu marido, libérate de esta agua de amargura que trae maldición.
20 and you, if you have turned aside under your husband, and if you have been defiled, and a man commits his intercourse with you besides your husband—
Pero si te has desviado, estando bajo la autoridad de tu marido, y si estás impura, y algún hombre se ha acostado contigo además de tu marido —”
21 then the priest has caused the woman to swear with an oath of execration, and the priest has said to the woman—YHWH gives you for an execration and for a curse in the midst of your people, in YHWH’s giving your thigh to fall and your belly to swell,
entonces el sacerdote hará que la mujer jure con el juramento de maldición, y el sacerdote le dirá a la mujer: “Que Yahvé te haga una maldición y un juramento entre tu pueblo, cuando Yahvé permita que tu muslo se desprenda y tu cuerpo se hinche;
22 and these waters which cause the curse have gone into your bowels to cause the belly to swell and the thigh to fall; and the woman has said, Amen, Amen.
y esta agua que trae una maldición entrará en tus entrañas y hará que tu cuerpo se hinche y tu muslo se desprenda.” La mujer dirá: “Amén, Amén”.
23 And the priest has written these execrations in a scroll, and has blotted [them] out with the bitter waters,
“‘El sacerdote escribirá estas maldiciones en un libro, y las limpiará en el agua de la amargura.
24 and has caused the woman to drink the bitter waters which cause the curse, and the waters which cause the curse have entered into her for bitter things.
Hará que la mujer beba el agua de la amargura que causa la maldición; y el agua que causa la maldición entrará en ella y se volverá amarga.
25 And the priest has taken the present of jealousy out of the hand of the woman, and has waved the present before YHWH, and has brought it near to the altar;
El sacerdote tomará la ofrenda de celos de la mano de la mujer, agitará la ofrenda delante de Yahvé y la llevará al altar.
26 and the priest has taken a handful of the present, its memorial, and has made incense on the altar, and afterward causes the woman to drink the water;
El sacerdote tomará un puñado de la ofrenda de comida, como su porción conmemorativa, y la quemará en el altar, y después hará que la mujer beba el agua.
27 indeed, he has caused her to drink the water, and it has come to pass, if she has been defiled and commits a trespass against her husband, that the waters which cause the curse have gone into her for bitter things, and her belly has swelled, and her thigh has fallen, and the woman has become an execration in the midst of her people.
Cuando le haya hecho beber el agua, sucederá que si ella está contaminada y ha cometido una transgresión contra su marido, el agua que causa la maldición entrará en ella y se volverá amarga, y su cuerpo se hinchará, y su muslo se caerá; y la mujer será una maldición entre su pueblo.
28 And if the woman has not been defiled, and is clean, then she has been acquitted, and has been sown [with] seed.
Si la mujer no está contaminada, sino que está limpia, entonces será libre y concebirá descendencia.
29 This [is] the law of jealousies when a wife turns aside under her husband and has been defiled,
“‘Esta es la ley de los celos, cuando la mujer, estando bajo su marido, se extravía y se contamina,
30 or when a spirit of jealousy passes over a man and he has been jealous of his wife, then he has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and the priest has done to her all this law,
o cuando el espíritu de los celos se apodera de un hombre, y éste tiene celos de su mujer; entonces pondrá a la mujer delante de Yahvé, y el sacerdote ejecutará sobre ella toda esta ley.
31 and the man has been acquitted from iniquity, and that woman bears her iniquity.”
El hombre quedará libre de iniquidad, y la mujer cargará con su iniquidad.’”
