Numeri 5
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
Izgonirea celor necuraţi
5 Domnul a vorbit lui Moise şi a zis: 2 „Porunceşte copiilor lui Israel să izgonească din tabără pe orice lepros(A) şi pe oricine are o lepădare(B) de sămânţă sau este întinat prin atingerea de(C) un mort. 3 Fie bărbaţi, fie femei, să-i scoateţi din tabără; să-i scoateţi afară, ca să nu spurce tabăra în mijlocul(D) căreia Îmi am Eu locuinţa.” 4 Copiii lui Israel au făcut aşa şi i-au scos afară din tabără; cum poruncise lui Moise Domnul, aşa au făcut copiii lui Israel.
Despăgubirea pentru furt
5 Domnul a vorbit lui Moise şi a zis: 6 „Spune copiilor lui Israel: ‘Când(E) un bărbat sau o femeie va păcătui împotriva aproapelui său, făcând o călcare de lege faţă de Domnul, şi se va face astfel vinovat, 7 să-şi(F) mărturisească păcatul şi să dea înapoi în întregime(G) preţul lucrului câştigat prin mijloace necinstite, adăugând a cincea parte; să-l dea aceluia faţă de care s-a făcut vinovat. 8 Dacă nu este nimeni care să aibă drept să ia înapoi lucrul câştigat prin mijloace necinstite, lucrul acela să se întoarcă la Domnul, la preot, afară de berbecul(H) adus ca jertfă de ispăşire cu care se va face ispăşire pentru cel vinovat. 9 Orice dar(I) ridicat din lucrurile închinate Domnului de copiii lui Israel să fie al preotului, căruia îi sunt aduse. 10 Lucrurile închinate Domnului vor fi ale preotului: tot ce i se va da preotului al(J) lui să fie’.”
Apa de gelozie
11 Domnul a vorbit lui Moise şi a zis: 12 „Vorbeşte copiilor lui Israel şi spune-le: ‘Dacă păcătuieşte nevasta cuiva faţă de bărbatul ei şi-i este necredincioasă; 13 dacă altul se(K) culcă cu ea, şi lucrul este ascuns de bărbatul ei; dacă ea s-a pângărit în ascuns, fără să fie vreun martor împotriva ei şi fără să fie prinsă asupra faptului 14 şi dacă bărbatul este apucat de un duh de gelozie şi are bănuieli asupra nevestei lui, care s-a pângărit, sau dacă este cuprins de un duh de gelozie şi are bănuieli asupra nevestei lui, care nu s-a pângărit, 15 omul acela să-şi aducă nevasta la preot şi, ca dar de mâncare pentru ea, să aducă a zecea parte dintr-o efă de floare de făină de orz; să nu toarne untdelemn pe ea şi să nu pună tămâie pe ea, căci acesta este un dar de mâncare adus pentru gelozie, un dar de descoperire, care descoperă(L) o fărădelege. 16 Preotul s-o apropie şi s-o pună să stea în picioare înaintea Domnului. 17 Preotul să ia apă sfântă într-un vas de pământ, să ia ţărână de pe podeaua cortului şi s-o pună în apă. 18 Preotul să pună pe femeie să stea în picioare înaintea Domnului, să descopere capul femeii şi să-i pună în mâini darul de mâncare adus pentru descoperire, darul de mâncare adus pentru gelozie; preotul să aibă în mână apele amare aducătoare de blestem. 19 Preotul să pună pe femeie să jure şi să-i zică: «Dacă niciun om nu s-a culcat cu tine şi dacă, fiind sub puterea bărbatului tău, nu te-ai abătut de la el ca să te pângăreşti cu altul, să nu-ţi facă niciun rău aceste ape amare aducătoare de blestem! 20 Dar dacă, fiind sub puterea bărbatului tău, te-ai abătut de la el şi te-ai pângărit şi dacă un alt om decât bărbatul tău s-a culcat cu tine», 21 şi preotul(M) să pună pe femeie să jure cu un jurământ de blestem şi să-i zică: «Domnul să(N) te facă să ajungi de blestem şi de urgie în mijlocul poporului tău, făcând să ţi se usuce coapsa şi să ţi se umfle pântecele, 22 şi apele acestea aducătoare de blestem să intre(O) în măruntaiele tale, ca să facă să ţi se umfle pântecele şi să ţi se usuce coapsa!» Şi(P) femeia să zică: «Amin! Amin!» 23 Preotul să scrie blestemele acestea într-o carte, apoi să le şteargă cu apele cele amare. 24 Şi să dea femeii să bea apele amare aducătoare de blestem, şi apele aducătoare de blestem vor intra în ea şi-i vor pricinui amărăciunea. 25 Preotul să ia din mâinile femeii darul de mâncare adus pentru gelozie, să legene(Q) darul într-o parte şi într-alta înaintea Domnului şi să-l aducă pe altar. 26 Apoi(R) preotul să ia un pumn din darul acesta, ca aducere-aminte, şi să-l ardă pe altar. După aceea, să dea femeii să bea apele. 27 După ce îi va da să bea apele, dacă ea s-a pângărit şi a fost necredincioasă bărbatului ei, apele aducătoare de blestem vor intra în ea şi-i vor pricinui amărăciunea; pântecele i se va umfla, coapsa i se va usca, şi femeia aceasta va fi de blestem(S) în mijlocul poporului ei. 28 Dar, dacă femeia nu s-a pângărit şi este curată, va rămâne neatinsă şi va avea copii. 29 Aceasta este legea asupra geloziei, pentru împrejurarea când o femeie care este sub puterea bărbatului ei se abate(T) şi se pângăreşte 30 şi pentru împrejurarea când un bărbat, apucat de un duh de gelozie, are bănuieli asupra nevestei lui: preotul s-o pună să stea în picioare înaintea Domnului şi să-i facă întocmai după legea aceasta. 31 Bărbatul va fi scutit de vină, dar femeia aceea îşi va lua(U) pedeapsa nelegiuirii ei.’ ”

The Purity of the Camp
5 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone who has a defiling skin disease[a](A) or a discharge(B) of any kind, or who is ceremonially unclean(C) because of a dead body.(D) 3 Send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.(E)” 4 The Israelites did so; they sent them outside the camp. They did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
Restitution for Wrongs
5 The Lord said to Moses, 6 “Say to the Israelites: ‘Any man or woman who wrongs another in any way[b] and so is unfaithful(F) to the Lord is guilty(G) 7 and must confess(H) the sin they have committed. They must make full restitution(I) for the wrong they have done, add a fifth of the value to it and give it all to the person they have wronged. 8 But if that person has no close relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the Lord and must be given to the priest, along with the ram(J) with which atonement is made for the wrongdoer.(K) 9 All the sacred contributions the Israelites bring to a priest will belong to him.(L) 10 Sacred things belong to their owners, but what they give to the priest will belong to the priest.(M)’”
The Test for an Unfaithful Wife
11 Then the Lord said to Moses, 12 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If a man’s wife goes astray(N) and is unfaithful to him 13 so that another man has sexual relations with her,(O) and this is hidden from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she has not been caught in the act), 14 and if feelings of jealousy(P) come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure—or if he is jealous and suspects her even though she is not impure— 15 then he is to take his wife to the priest. He must also take an offering of a tenth of an ephah[c](Q) of barley flour(R) on her behalf. He must not pour olive oil on it or put incense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy,(S) a reminder-offering(T) to draw attention to wrongdoing.
16 “‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the Lord. 17 Then he shall take some holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water. 18 After the priest has had the woman stand before the Lord, he shall loosen her hair(U) and place in her hands the reminder-offering, the grain offering for jealousy,(V) while he himself holds the bitter water that brings a curse.(W) 19 Then the priest shall put the woman under oath and say to her, “If no other man has had sexual relations with you and you have not gone astray(X) and become impure while married to your husband, may this bitter water that brings a curse(Y) not harm you. 20 But if you have gone astray(Z) while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband”— 21 here the priest is to put the woman under this curse(AA)—“may the Lord cause you to become a curse[d] among your people when he makes your womb miscarry and your abdomen swell. 22 May this water(AB) that brings a curse(AC) enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries.”
“‘Then the woman is to say, “Amen. So be it.(AD)”
23 “‘The priest is to write these curses on a scroll(AE) and then wash them off into the bitter water. 24 He shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and this water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering will enter her. 25 The priest is to take from her hands the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the Lord(AF) and bring it to the altar. 26 The priest is then to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial[e] offering(AG) and burn it on the altar; after that, he is to have the woman drink the water. 27 If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse.(AH) 28 If, however, the woman has not made herself impure, but is clean, she will be cleared of guilt and will be able to have children.
29 “‘This, then, is the law of jealousy when a woman goes astray(AI) and makes herself impure while married to her husband, 30 or when feelings of jealousy(AJ) come over a man because he suspects his wife. The priest is to have her stand before the Lord and is to apply this entire law to her. 31 The husband will be innocent of any wrongdoing, but the woman will bear the consequences(AK) of her sin.’”

Ceremonially Unclean Persons Isolated(A)
5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 “Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every (B)leper, everyone who has a (C)discharge, and whoever becomes (D)defiled [a]by a corpse. 3 You shall put out both male and female; you shall put them outside the camp, that they may not defile their camps (E)in the midst of which I dwell.” 4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them outside the camp; as the Lord spoke to Moses, so the children of Israel did.
Confession and Restitution(F)
5 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 6 “Speak to the children of Israel: (G)‘When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit in unfaithfulness against the Lord, and that person is guilty, 7 (H)then he shall confess the sin which he has committed. He shall make restitution for his trespass (I)in full, plus one-fifth of it, and give it to the one he has wronged. 8 But if the man has no [b]relative to whom restitution may be made for the wrong, the restitution for the wrong must go to the Lord for the priest, in addition to (J)the ram of the atonement with which atonement is made for him. 9 Every (K)offering[c] of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be (L)his. 10 And every man’s [d]holy things shall be his; whatever any man gives the priest shall be (M)his.’ ”
Concerning Unfaithful Wives
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 12 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘If any man’s wife goes astray and behaves unfaithfully toward him, 13 and a man (N)lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and it is concealed that she has defiled herself, and there was no witness against her, nor was she (O)caught— 14 if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he becomes (P)jealous of his wife, who has defiled herself; or if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he becomes jealous of his wife, although she has not defiled herself— 15 then the man shall bring his wife to the priest. He shall (Q)bring the offering required for her, one-tenth of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil on it and put no frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering of jealousy, an offering for remembering, for (R)bringing iniquity to remembrance.
16 ‘And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the Lord. 17 The priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it into the water. 18 Then the priest shall stand the woman before the (S)Lord, uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering for remembering in her hands, which is the grain offering of jealousy. And the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse. 19 And the priest shall put her under oath, and say to the woman, “If no man has lain with you, and if you have not gone astray to uncleanness while under your husband’s authority, be free from this bitter water that brings a curse. 20 But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority, and if you have defiled yourself and some man other than your husband has lain with you”— 21 then the priest shall (T)put the woman under the oath of the curse, and he shall say to the woman—(U)“the Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people, when the Lord makes your thigh [e]rot and your belly swell; 22 and may this water that causes the curse (V)go into your stomach, and make your belly swell and your thigh rot.”
‘(W)Then the woman shall say, “Amen, so be it.”
23 ‘Then the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall scrape them off into the bitter water. 24 And he shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and the water that brings the curse shall enter her to become bitter. 25 (X)Then the priest shall take the grain offering of jealousy from the woman’s hand, shall (Y)wave the offering before the Lord, and bring it to the altar; 26 and the priest shall take a handful of the offering, (Z)as its memorial portion, burn it on the altar, and afterward make the woman drink the water. 27 When he has made her drink the water, then it shall be, if she has defiled herself and behaved unfaithfully toward her husband, that the water that brings a (AA)curse will enter her and become bitter, and her belly will swell, her thigh will rot, and the woman (AB)will become a curse among her people. 28 But if the woman has not defiled herself, and is clean, then she shall be free and may conceive children.
29 ‘This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, while under her husband’s authority, (AC)goes astray and defiles herself, 30 or when the spirit of jealousy comes upon a man, and he becomes jealous of his wife; then he shall stand the woman before the Lord, and the priest shall execute all this law upon her. 31 Then the man shall be free from [f]iniquity, but that woman (AD)shall bear her [g]guilt.’ ”
