Num 5:2 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:

mizzāḵār ‘aḏ-nəqēḇāh təšallēḥû ’el-miḥûṣ lammaḥăneh təšalləḥûm wəlō’ yəṭammə’û ’eṯ-maḥănêhem ’ăšer ’ănî šōḵēn bəṯôḵām

Num 5:3 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.

wayya‘ăśû-ḵēn bənê yiśərā’ēl wayəšalləḥû ’ôṯām ’el-miḥûṣ lammaḥăneh ka’ăšer dibber yəhwāh ’el-mōšeh kēn ‘āśû bənê yiśərā’ēl

Num 5:4 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.

wayəḏabbēr yəhwāh ’el-mōšeh llē’mōr

Num 5:5 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

dabbēr ’el-bənê yiśərā’ēl ’îš ’ô-’iššāh kî ya‘ăśû mikkāl-ḥaṭṭō’ṯ hā’āḏām limə‘ōl ma‘al bayhwāh wə’āšəmāh hannep̱eš hahiw’

Num 5:6 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;

wəhiṯəwaddû ’eṯ-ḥaṭṭā’ṯām ’ăšer ‘āśû wəhēšîḇ ’eṯ-’ăšāmô bərō’šô waḥămîšiṯô yōsēp̱ ‘ālāyw wənāṯan la’ăšer ’āšam lô

Num 5:7 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.

wə’im-’ên lā’îš gō’ēl ləhāšîḇ hā’āšām ’ēlāyw hā’āšām hammûšāḇ layhwāh lakkōhēn milləḇaḏ ’êl hakkippurîm ’ăšer yəḵapper-bô ‘ālāyw

Num 5:8 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.

wəḵāl-tərûmāh ləḵāl-qāḏəšê ḇənê-yiśərā’ēl ’ăšer-yaqərîḇû lakkōhēn lô yihəyeh

Num 5:9 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.

wə’îš ’eṯ-qŏḏāšāyw lô yihəyû ’îš ’ăšer-yittēn lakkōhēn lô yihəyeh

Num 5:10 And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.

wayəḏabbēr yəhwāh ’el-mōšeh llē’mōr

Num 5:11 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

dabbēr ’el-bənê yiśərā’ēl wə’āmarətā ’ălēhem ’îš ’îš kî-ṯiśəṭeh ’išətô ûmā‘ălāh ḇô mā‘al

Num 5:12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,

wəšāḵaḇ ’îš ’ōṯāhh šiḵəḇaṯ-zera‘ wəne‘əlam mē‘ênê ’îšāhh wənisətərāh wəhî’ niṭəmā’āh wə‘ēḏ ’ên bāhh wəhiw’ lō’ niṯəpāśāh

Num 5:13 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;

wə‘āḇar ‘ālāyw rûaḥ-qinə’āh wəqinnē’ ’eṯ-’išətô wəhiw’ niṭəmā’āh ’ô-‘āḇar ‘ālāyw rûaḥ-qinə’āh wəqinnē’ ’eṯ-’išətô wəhî’ lō’ niṭəmā’āh

Num 5:14 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:

wəhēḇî’ hā’îš ’eṯ-’išətô ’el-hakkōhēn wəhēḇî’ ’eṯ-qārəbānāhh ‘āleyhā ‘ăśîriṯ hā’êp̱āh qemaḥ śə‘ōrîm lō’-yiṣōq ‘ālāyw šemen wəlō’-yittēn ‘ālāyw ləḇōnāh kî-minəḥaṯ qənā’ōṯ hû’ minəḥaṯ zikkārôn mazəkereṯ ‘āwōn

Num 5:15 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.

wəhiqərîḇ ’ōṯāhh hakkōhēn wəhe‘ĕmiḏāhh lip̱ənê yəhwāh

Num 5:16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD:

wəlāqaḥ hakkōhēn mayim qəḏōšîm biḵəlî-ḥāreś ûmin-he‘āp̱ār ’ăšer yihəyeh bəqarəqa‘ hammišəkān yiqqaḥ hakkōhēn wənāṯan ’el-hammāyim

Num 5:17 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:

wəhe‘ĕmîḏ hakkōhēn ’eṯ-hā’iššāh lip̱ənê yəhwāh ûp̱āra‘ ’eṯ-rō’š hā’iššāh wənāṯan ‘al-kappeyhā ’ēṯ minəḥaṯ hazzikkārôn minəḥaṯ qənā’ōṯ hiw’ ûḇəyaḏ hakkōhēn yihəyû mê hammārîm hamə’ārărîm

Num 5:18 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:

wəhišəbîa‘ ’ōṯāhh hakkōhēn wə’āmar ’el-hā’iššāh ’im-lō’ šāḵaḇ ’îš ’ōṯāḵ wə’im-lō’ śāṭîṯ ṭumə’āh taḥaṯ ’îšēḵ hinnāqî mimmê hammārîm hamə’ārărîm hā’ēlleh

Num 5:19 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:

wə’att kî śāṭîṯ taḥaṯ ’îšēḵ wəḵî niṭəmē’ṯ wayyittēn ’îš bāḵ ’eṯ-šəḵāḇətô mibbalə‘ăḏê ’îšēḵ

Num 5:20 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:

wəhišəbîa‘ hakkōhēn ’eṯ-hā’iššāh bišəḇu‘aṯ hā’ālāh wə’āmar hakkōhēn lā’iššāh yittēn yəhwāh ’ôṯāḵ lə’ālāh wəlišəḇu‘āh bəṯôḵ ‘ammēḵ bəṯēṯ yəhwāh ’eṯ-yərēḵēḵ nōp̱eleṯ wə’eṯ-biṭənēḵ ṣāḇāh

Num 5:21 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;

ûḇā’û hammayim hamə’ārərîm hā’ēlleh bəmē‘ayiḵ laṣəbôṯ beṭen wəlanəpil yārēḵ wə’āmərāh hā’iššāh ’āmēn ’āmēn

Num 5:22 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.

wəḵāṯaḇ ’eṯ-hā’ālōṯ hā’ēlleh hakkōhēn bassēp̱er ûmāḥāh ’el-mê hammārîm

Num 5:23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water:

wəhišəqāh ’eṯ-hā’iššāh ’eṯ-mê hammārîm hamə’ārărîm ûḇā’û ḇāhh hammayim hamə’ārărîm ləmārîm

Num 5:24 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.

wəlāqaḥ hakkōhēn miyyaḏ hā’iššāh ’ēṯ minəḥaṯ haqqənā’ōṯ wəhēnîp̱ ’eṯ-hamminəḥāh lip̱ənê yəhwāh wəhiqərîḇ ’ōṯāhh ’el-hammizəbēaḥ

Num 5:25 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:

wəqāmaṣ hakkōhēn min-hamminəḥāh ’eṯ-’azəkārāṯāhh wəhiqəṭîr hammizəbēḥāh wə’aḥar yašəqeh ’eṯ-hā’iššāh ’eṯ-hammāyim

Num 5:26 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.

wəhišəqāhh ’eṯ-hammayim wəhāyəṯāh ’im-niṭəmə’āh wattimə‘ōl ma‘al bə’îšāhh ûḇā’û ḇāhh hammayim hamə’ārărîm ləmārîm wəṣāḇəṯāh ḇiṭənāhh wənāp̱əlāh yərēḵāhh wəhāyəṯāh hā’iššāh lə’ālāh bəqereḇ ‘ammāhh

Num 5:27 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.

wə’im-lō’ niṭəmə’āh hā’iššāh ûṭəhōrāh hiw’ wəniqqəṯāh wənizərə‘āh zāra‘

Num 5:28 And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.

zō’ṯ tôraṯ haqqənā’ōṯ ’ăšer tiśəṭeh ’iššāh taḥaṯ ’îšāhh wəniṭəmā’āh

Num 5:29 This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to another instead of her husband, and is defiled;

’ô ’îš ’ăšer ta‘ăḇōr ‘ālāyw rûaḥ qinə’āh wəqinnē’ ’eṯ-’išətô wəhe‘ĕmîḏ ’eṯ-hā’iššāh lip̱ənê yəhwāh wə‘āśāh lāhh hakkōhēn ’ēṯ kāl-hattôrāh hazzō’ṯ

Num 5:30 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.

wəniqqāh hā’îš mē‘āwōn wəhā’iššāh hahiw’ tiśśā’ ’eṯ-‘ăwōnāhh

Num 5:31 Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.
