12 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, If any man's wife goes astray and acts unfaithfully against him,
13 And a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and she is undetected, though she has defiled herself, and there is no witness against her, nor is she caught in the act;
14 And if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he is jealous of his wife, who has defiled herself; or if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he is jealous of his wife, though she has not defiled herself:
15 Then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, one-tenth of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is a grain offering of jealousy, a grain offering of remembrance, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
16 And the priest shall bring her near and set her before the LORD:
17 And 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 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD and uncover the woman’s head, and put the grain offering of remembrance in her hands, which is the jealousy offering; and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse:
19 And the priest shall make her swear an oath, and say to the woman, If no man has lain with you, and if you have not gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of your husband, be free from this bitter water that brings a curse:
20 But if you have gone aside to another instead of your husband, and if you are defiled, and some man has lain with you besides your husband:
21 Then the priest shall make the woman swear with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say to the woman, The LORD make you a curse and an oath among your people, when the LORD makes your thigh waste away and your belly swell;
22 And this water that brings a curse shall go into your bowels, to make your belly swell and your thigh waste away. And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water:
24 And he shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse; and the water that brings a curse shall enter into her and become bitter.
25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman’s hand, and wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it on the altar:
26 And the priest shall take a handful of the offering, as its memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.
