Numbers 5:12-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹² “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘If any man’s wife turns to evil and commits a trespass against him,

¹³ ‘so that another man lies with her, fleshly. And it is hidden from the eyes of her husband and concealed that she is defiled. And there is no witness against her, nor is she caught in the act.

¹⁴ ‘If he is moved with a jealous mind, so that he is jealous over his wife who is defiled. Or if he has a jealous mind, so that he is jealous over his wife who is not defiled,

¹⁵ ‘then the man shall bring his wife to the Priest and bring her offering with her (one tenth of an ephah of barley meal). He shall not pour oil upon it, nor put incense on it. For it is an offering of jealousy, an offering for a remembrance, calling the sin to mind.

¹⁶ ‘And the Priest shall bring her and set her before the LORD.

¹⁷ ‘Then the Priest shall take the holy water in an earthen vessel and the dust that is in the floor of the Tabernacle. The Priest shall take it and put it into the water.
