RF NUM 5:1 Command to Expel Prostitutes and Profligates from the Camp.
The EVER-LIVING also spoke to Moses commanding;—
RF NUM 5:2 "Command the children of Israel that they must send out of the camp all afflicted by contagious disease, and all with venereal diseases, and all of foul life;
RF NUM 5:3 whether male or female, so that they may not infect the camp, in the midst of which I dwell."
RF NUM 5:4 The children of Israel accordingly did so, and sent them to the outside of the camp, as the EVER-LIVING had commanded to Moses. The children of Israel did it.
RF NUM 5:5 The Law of Forgiveness of Sin.
Then the EVER-LIVING commanded to Moses saying;—
RF NUM 5:6 "Say to the children of Israel, The man or woman who perversely commits any human sin against the EVER-LIVING; that person is guilty.
RF NUM 5:7 But if they make confession of the sin which they have committed, and would remedy the wrong they have done, and remove it from them, let them add a fifth part to it, and give to him who has been wronged.
RF NUM 5:8 But if the man does not possess the means of restoration for the wrong he has done, the culprit shall return to the EVER-LIVING, by the priest, in place of it, a ram as an expiation which shall expiate for him as to the wrong.
RF NUM 5:9 "And every such oblation consecrated by the children of Israel, which they offer through the priest, shall be the priest's.
RF NUM 5:10 But whatever a person devotes must be his own property; and what a man gives to the priest shall be the priest's property. "

1. v10. This verse is very obscure in the Hebrew, but the version above given seems to be its meaning.—F.F.
RF NUM 5:11 Law of Suspicion of Adultery.
The EVER-LIVING also spoke to Moses commanding;—
RF NUM 5:12 "Speak to the children of Israel and say to them; If a man suspects his wife of having gone astray, and of a man having had sinful intercourse with her;
RF NUM 5:13 and that his wife has hidden from his sight that she has been defiled; but he has no witness of it, and she has not been divorced;
RF NUM 5:14 yet the breath of suspicion has passed over her, and he suspects his wife, that she has been defiled, or that a breath of suspicion has passed over her, and he suspects his wife although she may not have been defiled;
RF NUM 5:15 then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring as a gift for her with her, the twelfth of an epha of barley meal, without any oil poured upon it; nor shall he put incense with it,—for it is an offering of jealousy;—an offering of remembrance, for reminding of frailty.
RF NUM 5:16 "Then the priest shall make her advance, and place her before the EVER-LIVING,
RF NUM 5:17 when the priest shall take holy water in an earthenware cup, and some dust that is on the floor of the sanctuary, and put it into the water.
RF NUM 5:18 The priest shall then station the woman before the EVER-LIVING, and uncover the woman's head, and place in her hands the Gift of Remembrance,—the Gift of Jealousy,—and the bitter water of cursing shall be in the hand of the priest.
RF NUM 5:19 The priest shall also administer an oath to her, and say to the woman;
"'If a man has not had connection with you, and if you have not turned to a seducer instead of your husband, be free from the water of this bitter curse;
RF NUM 5:20 but if you have turned to another than your husband, with whom you have been sinning, and that a man has been to you instead of your husband '—
RF NUM 5:21 (here the priest shall swear the woman with this oath, and the priest shall say to the woman)—' then may the EVER-LIVING make you a curse and imprecation among your relatives! May the EVER-LIVING make your thigh to rot and your belly to swell,
RF NUM 5:22 and may this water of cursing become in your bowels as rottenness to the bowels, and as swelling to your thigh!'
"(Then the woman shall say) 'So let it be! So let it be!'
RF NUM 5:23 "The priest shall afterwards write these curses on a tablet, and wash them off with the bitter water,
RF NUM 5:24 and the woman shall drink the water of the bitter curses, and swallow the water of the bitter curses.
RF NUM 5:25 "Then the priest shall take from the hand of the woman the Gift of Jealousy, and wave the Gift before the EVER-LIVING, and offer it upon the altar.
RF NUM 5:26 The priest shall also take a handful from the remembrance, and cause it to be burnt at the altar, and after that the woman shall drink the water,
RF NUM 5:27 and the water drunk shall—if she has been corrupted, and has dishonoured her husband—then become a bitter curse, and swell her belly, and rot her thigh, and the woman shall be a curse in the circle of her relatives.
RF NUM 5:28 "But if the woman has not defiled herself, and is pure, then she shall be free from them, and be conceiving children.
RF NUM 5:29 "These are the laws about the suspicion that a woman has turned from her husband and degraded herself;
RF NUM 5:30 or for a man when there passes over him the breath of suspicion, and he suspects his wife, and brings her before the EVER-LIVING. The priest shall proceed towards them according to this enactment,
RF NUM 5:31 and free the husband from his passion, and thus continue the woman's marriage rights."
