Numbers 5
1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 “Pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé kí wọn ó lé ẹnikẹ́ni tó bá ní ẹ̀tẹ̀, ìtújáde ara ní oríṣìíríṣìí tàbí ẹni tó jẹ́ aláìmọ́ nípa fífọwọ́ kan òkú.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘You must send away from your (camp/area where you have your tents) any man or woman who has leprosy and anyone who has a discharge [of some fluid from his body], and anyone who has become unacceptable to God because of [having touched] a corpse.
3 Irú ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀ yálà ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin, ẹ lé wọn jáde kúrò nínú ibùdó kí wọn má ba à ba ibùdó wọn jẹ́ níbi tí èmi ń gbé láàrín wọn.”
Send them away from there in order that they will not [touch people in the camp area] where I live among you and cause them to become unacceptable to me.’”
4 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀; wọ́n lé wọn jáde kúrò nínú ibùdó. Wọn ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ fún Mose.
So [Moses/I told that to the Israeli people, and] the Israeli people obeyed what Yahweh commanded Moses/me.
5 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
Yahweh also told Moses/me,
6 “Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli: ‘Nígbà tí ọkùnrin kan tàbí obìnrin kan bá ṣẹ̀ ara wọn lọ́nà kan tàbí òmíràn, tí wọ́n sì ṣe àìṣòótọ́ sí Olúwa, ẹni náà jẹ̀bi.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If someone (commits a crime against/does something wrong to) another person, [I consider that] that person has done wrong to me.
7 Ó gbọdọ̀ jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó sẹ̀. Ó gbọdọ̀ san ẹ̀san rẹ̀ ní ojú owó, kí ó sì fi ìdámárùn-ún rẹ̀ lé e, kí ó sì fi fún ẹni tí òun jẹ̀bi rẹ̀.
That person must confess that he or she is guilty, and he or she must pay to the person to whom wrong was done [what others consider to be a suitable/proper payment] for what he has done, and he must pay an extra 20 percent.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n bí irú ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀ kò bá ní ìbátan tí ó súnmọ́ ọn tí ó lè ṣe àtúnṣe àṣìṣe rẹ̀ náà fún, àtúnṣe náà jẹ́ ti Olúwa, ẹ sì gbọdọ̀ ko fún àlùfáà pẹ̀lú àgbò tí a fi ṣe ètùtù fún ẹni náà.
If the person against whom the wrong was done [has died and] there is no relative to whom the money can be paid, then the money belongs to me, and it must be paid to the priest. In addition, the one who did the wrong must give a male sheep to the priest [to sacrifice] in order that (that person’s sin may be forgiven/I can forgive that person for his sin).
9 Gbogbo ọrẹ ohun mímọ́ tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bá mú wá fún àlùfáà jẹ́ tirẹ̀.
All the sacred offerings that the Israelis bring to the priest belong to the priest.
10 Ọrẹ ohun mímọ́ ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan jẹ́ ti òun nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n ohunkóhun tó bá fún àlùfáà yóò jẹ́ ti àlùfáà.’”
The priest can keep those gifts.’”
11 Olúwa sọ fún Mose wí pé,
Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:
12 “Bá àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ̀rọ̀ kí o sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Bí ìyàwó ọkùnrin kan bá yapa tó sì ṣe àìṣòótọ́ sí i,
“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘Suppose a man thinks that his wife has slept with another man,
13 nípa mímú kí ọkùnrin mìíràn bá a lòpọ̀ tí ó sì fi èyí pamọ́ fún ọkọ rẹ̀, tí a kò si gbá a mú nínú ìwà àìmọ́ rẹ̀ (nítorí pé kò sí ẹlẹ́rìí àti pé wọn kò ká a mọ́ nígbà tí ó ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ náà).
but neither he nor anyone else knows if it is true or not, because no one saw her doing that.
14 Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀mí owú jíjẹ bá bà lé ọkọ rẹ̀ dé bi pé ó ń funra sí ìyàwó rẹ̀ yìí tí ìyàwó rẹ̀ sì wà ní àìmọ́ nítòótọ́, tàbí tí ẹ̀mí owú bá bà lé ọkùnrin kan tó sì ń jowú ìyàwó rẹ̀ bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ó wà ní mímọ́,
But if the woman’s husband is jealous, and if he suspects that she has committed adultery, and he wants to know whether that is true or not,
15 nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin yìí yóò mú ìyàwó rẹ̀ lọ sọ́dọ̀ àlùfáà. Ọkùnrin náà yóò sì mú ọrẹ tí a yàn fún obìnrin náà, ìdámẹ́wàá òsùwọ̀n efa ìyẹ̀fun barle. Kò gbọdọ̀ da òróró sí i, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ fi tùràrí dídùn sí i nítorí pé ẹbọ ohun jíjẹ fún owú ni, èyí ti n mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wá sí ìrántí.
he should take his wife to the priest. He must take along as an offering two quarts/liters of barley flour. The priest must not pour [olive] oil or incense on it, because this is an offering that the man has brought because he (is jealous/wants his wife to sleep only with him). It is an offering to find out if she is guilty or not. [Neither olive oil nor incense should be used because are associated with joy and this is not a time for joy.]
16 “‘Àlùfáà yóò sì mú un wá síwájú Olúwa.
The priest must tell the woman to stand [in front of the altar] in my presence.
17 Àlùfáà yóò sì bu erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ àgọ́ sínú omi mímọ́ tó bù láti ìkòkò amọ̀.
He must put some sacred water in a clay jar, and then he must put some dirt from the floor of the Sacred Tent into the water.
18 Lẹ́yìn èyí, àlùfáà yóò mú obìnrin náà dúró níwájú Olúwa yóò sì tú irun orí obìnrin náà lé e lọ́wọ́, èyí ni ẹbọ ohun jíjẹ ti owú, àlùfáà fúnra rẹ̀ yóò sì gbé omi kíkorò tí ń mú ègún lọ́wọ́.
He must untie/unfasten the woman’s hair. Then he must put in her hands the grain that her jealous husband is offering to determine whether she has committed adultery or not. The priest must hold [the bowl that contains] bitter water that will cause (the woman to be cursed/bad things to happen to the woman) [if she is guilty].
19 Àlùfáà yóò sì mú obìnrin náà búra, yóò wí pé, “Bí ọkùnrin mìíràn kò bá bá ọ lòpọ̀, tí ó kò sì yapa, tí o kò sì di aláìmọ́ níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó wà lábẹ́ àṣẹ ọkọ rẹ̀, a jẹ́ pé omi kíkorò tí ń mú ègún wá yìí kò ní ṣe ọ́ níbi.
The priest must require her to solemnly declare [that she will tell the truth]. Then he must say to her, “Has another man had sex [EUP] with you? Have you faithfully [slept only with your husband] or not? If you have not slept with another man, nothing bad will happen to you if you drink the water.
20 Ṣùgbọ́n tí ìwọ bá ti yapa kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ọkọ rẹ, tí o bá ti ba ara rẹ jẹ́ nípa jíjẹ́ kí ọkùnrin tí kì í ṣe ọkọ rẹ bá ọ lòpọ̀,”
But if you have had sex with another man, [Yahweh will curse you].
21 nígbà náà ni àlùfáà yóò mú obìnrin náà búra, yóò sọ fún obìnrin náà pé, “Kí Olúwa sọ ọ́ di ẹni ègún àti ẹni ìbáwí láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ nípa mímú kí itan rẹ jẹrà, kí ikùn rẹ̀ sì wú.
Your womb will shrivel up and your stomach will swell up. You will never be able to give birth to children, and as a result, everyone will curse you and avoid you. If you have committed adultery, [when you drink] this water, that is what will happen to you.” Then the woman must answer, “[If I am guilty], I will not object if that happens.”
22 Ǹjẹ́ kí omi yìí tí ń mú ègún wá wọ inú ara rẹ, kí ó mú ikùn rẹ̀ wú, kí ó sì mú itan rẹ̀ jẹrà dànù.” “‘Obìnrin náà yóò sì wí pé, “Àmín. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kó rí.”
23 “‘Nígbà náà ni àlùfáà yóò kọ ègún yìí sínú ìwé kíká, yóò sì sìn ín sínú omi kíkorò náà.
‘Then the priest must write [with ink] on a small scroll these (curses/bad things that will happen to her if she is guilty) [and then wash the ink off into the bitter water].
24 Àlùfáà yóò sì mú kí obìnrin náà mu omi kíkorò tí ń mú ègún wá yìí, omi náà yóò wọ inú rẹ̀ yóò sì fa ìrora kíkorò fún obìnrin náà bí ó bá jẹ̀bi.
The priest must take from her the offering of barley flour [that she is holding], and lift it up to dedicate it to me. Then he must put it on the altar
25 Àlùfáà yóò gba ọrẹ ohun jíjẹ owú náà lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, yóò fì í síwájú Olúwa, yóò sì mú iná sórí pẹpẹ.

and burn part of it as a sacrifice. Then the woman must drink the bitter water.
27 Bí ó bá ti mú obìnrin yìí mu omi náà, bí ó bá sì jẹ́ pé obìnrin náà ti ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́, tí ó sì ṣe àìṣòótọ́ sí ọkọ rẹ̀, omi tí ń mú ègún wá, yóò wọ ara rẹ̀, yóò fa ìrora kíkorò fún un, ikùn rẹ̀ yóò wú, itan rẹ̀ yóò sì jẹrà dànù, yóò sì di ẹni ègún láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
If the woman has committed adultery, the water will cause her to suffer greatly. Her stomach will swell up and her womb will shrink, [and she will be unable to give birth to children]. And then her (relatives/fellow Israelis) will curse her.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n tó bá jẹ́ pé obìnrin náà kò ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́, tó sì jẹ́ mímọ́, yóò bọ́ nínú ẹ̀bi, yóò sì le bímọ.
But if she (is innocent/has not committed adultery), her body will not be harmed, and she will still be able to give birth to children.
29 “‘Èyí ni òfin owú jíjẹ nígbà tí obìnrin tó wà lábẹ́ ọkọ bá ṣe a ṣe má ṣe, tí ó bá ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́,
‘That is the ritual that must be performed when a woman who is married has been unfaithful to her husband,
30 tàbí nígbà tí ẹ̀mí owú jíjẹ bá bà lé ọkùnrin kan nítorí pé ó funra sí ìyàwó rẹ̀. Àlùfáà yóò mú obìnrin náà dúró níwájú Olúwa yóò sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin ti wí fún un.
or when a man is jealous and suspects that his wife [has had sex with another man]. The priest must tell that woman to stand [at the altar] in my presence and obey these instructions.
31 Ara ọkọ rẹ̀ mọ́ nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yìí ṣùgbọ́n obìnrin náà yóò ru ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀.’”
Even if the woman has not done what the husband suspected, he will not be punished [MTY] for doing something wrong [by bringing his wife to the priest]. But if his wife is guilty, she will suffer as a result.’”
