    11The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

    12Speak to the Israelites: If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him,

    13and another man has sexual relations with her secretly, and it is hidden from her husband, and she is not caught but has become defiled, even though there is no witness against her,

    14and if a spirit of jealousy comes over the husband and he becomes suspicious of his wife, whether she has defiled herself or not,

    15The man shall bring his wife to the priest, along with an offering on her behalf: a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He shall not pour oil on it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, a grain offering of remembrance to bring iniquity to mind.

    17Then the priest will take holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.

    18After the woman is made to stand before the Lord, the priest will loosen her hair, place the grain offering of remembrance, which is the grain offering for jealousy, into her hands, and hold in his hands the bitter water that brings a curse.

    19The priest shall put her under oath and say to her, 'If no man has lain with you and you have not gone astray, defiling yourself while under your husband’s authority, may you be free from this bitter water that brings a curse.'

    20But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and defiled yourself, and if a man other than your husband has had sexual relations with you—

    21then the priest will put the woman under the curse oath and say to her, 'May the Lord make you a curse and an example of cursing among your people by making your thigh waste away and your abdomen swell.'

    23The priest is to write these curses on a scroll and then wash them off into the bitter water.

    24He shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her, causing bitter suffering.

    25The priest shall take the jealousy offering from the woman’s hand, wave the offering before the Lord, and bring it to the altar.

    26The priest shall take a handful of the offering as its memorial portion and burn it on the altar, and afterward, he shall make the woman drink the water.

    27When he makes her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, the water that brings a curse will enter her, causing her abdomen to swell and her thigh to shrink. The woman will then become a curse among her people.

    28But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be cleared of guilt and will be able to conceive children.

    29This is the law regarding jealousy when a woman goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband's authority.

    30Or when a man is overcome by a spirit of jealousy and suspects his wife, he is to bring her before the Lord, and the priest shall carry out all of this law on her.

    31The man will be free of guilt, but the woman will bear the consequences of her sin.
