Rules Concerning Those Unclean
2 "Command the Israelites to expel from the camp every leper, everyone who has a discharge, and whoever becomes defiled by a corpse.
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:
2 “Command the sons of Israel that they (A)send away from the camp every leper and everyone having a (B)discharge and everyone who is (C)unclean because of a dead person.
2 “Command the Israelites to send away anyone from the camp who is afflicted with a skin disease, anyone who has a bodily discharge, or anyone who is defiled because of a corpse.(A)
2 "Command the Israelis to send outside the encampment every leper, everyone who has a discharge, and whoever is ritually defiled by contact with a corpse.
3 You must expel both men and women; you must put them outside the camp, so that they will not defile their camps, among which I live."
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.
3 You shall send away both male and female; you shall send them outside the camp so that they will not defile their camp where I dwell (D)in their midst.”
3 You must send away both male or female; send them outside the camp, so that they will not defile their camps where I dwell among them.”
3 Whether male or female, send them outside the camp so that they won't defile their camp, because I live among them."
4 So the Israelites did so, and expelled them outside the camp. As the Lord had spoken to Moses, so the Israelites did.
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.
4 The sons of Israel did so and sent them outside the camp; just as the Lord had spoken to Moses, thus the sons of Israel did.
4 The Israelites did this, sending them outside the camp. The Israelites did as the Lord instructed Moses.
4 So the Israelis sent them outside the camp. The Israelis did just what the LORD had told Moses.
Rules Of Restitution
6 "Tell the Israelites, 'When a man or a woman commits any sin that people commit, thereby breaking faith with the Lord, and that person is found guilty,
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;
6 “Speak to the sons of Israel, ‘(E)When a man or woman commits any of the sins of mankind, acting unfaithfully against the Lord, and that person is guilty,
6 “Tell the Israelites: When a man or woman commits any sin against another, that person acts unfaithfully toward the Lord and is guilty.
6 "Instruct the Israelis that whenever a man or woman does something contained in the list of the sins of man, thereby acting treacherously against the LORD, then that person stands guilty.
7 then he must confess his sin that he has committed and must make full reparation, add one fifth to it, and give it to whomever he wronged.
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.
7 then (a)he shall (F)confess (b)his sins which (c)he has committed, and he (G)shall make restitution in full for his wrong and add to it one-fifth of it, and give it to him whom he has wronged.
7 The person is to confess the sin he has committed. He is to pay full compensation, add a fifth of its value to it, and give it to the individual he has wronged.(B)
7 He is to confess the sin that he had committed, pay its full compensation, add one fifth to it, and give the compensation to whomever he offended.
8 But if the individual has no close relative to whom reparation can be made for the wrong, the reparation for the wrong must be paid to the Lord for the priest, in addition to the ram of atonement by which atonement is made for him.
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.
8 But if the man has no (d)relative to whom restitution may be made for the wrong, the restitution which is made for the wrong must go to the Lord for the priest, besides the ram of atonement, by which atonement is made for him.
8 But if that individual has no relative(C) to receive compensation,(a) the compensation goes to the Lord for the priest, along with the atonement ram by which the priest will make atonement for the guilty person.(D)
8 But if the person has no related redeemer to whom compensation may be made, the payment is to be brought to the LORD and given to the priest, in addition to a ram for atonement with which he is to be atoned.
9 Every offering of all the Israelites' holy things that they bring to the priest will be his.
9 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.
9 (H)Also every (e)contribution pertaining to all the holy gifts of the sons of Israel, which they offer to the priest, shall be his.
9 Every offering from all the most sacred things of the Israelis that they bring to the priest is to belong to him.
10 Every man's holy things will be his; whatever any man gives the priest will be his.'"
10 And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
10 So every man’s holy gifts shall be his; whatever any man gives to the priest, it (I)becomes his.’”
10 Each one’s holy contribution is his to give; what each one gives to the priest will be his.”
10 Furthermore, everyone's sacred things belong to him, as well as whatever a person gives to the priest."
Rules Concerning An Unfaithful Wife
12 "Speak to the Israelites and tell them, 'If any man's wife goes astray and behaves unfaithfully toward him,
12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
12 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘If any man’s wife (J)goes astray and is unfaithful to him,
12 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: If any man’s wife goes astray, is unfaithful to him,
12 "Instruct the Israelis what to do if a man's wife turns astray so that she unfaithfully acts against him,
13 and a man has sexual relations with her without her husband knowing it, and it is hidden that she has defiled herself, since there was no witness against her, nor was she caught --
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;
13 and a man has (K)intercourse with her and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband and she is (f)undetected, although she has defiled herself, and there is no witness against her and she has not been caught in the act,
13 and sleeps with another,(b) but it is concealed from her husband, and she is undetected, even though she has defiled herself, since there is no witness against her, and she wasn’t caught in the act;
13 a man has sexual relations with her and she conceals it from her husband, keeping it secret although she has defiled herself with there being no witnesses against her, but she was caught anyway.
14 and if jealous feelings come over him and he becomes suspicious of his wife, when she is defiled; or if jealous feelings come over him and he becomes suspicious of his wife, when she is not defiled --
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:
14 (g)if a spirit of (L)jealousy comes over him and he is jealous of his wife when she has defiled herself, or if a spirit of jealousy comes over him and he is jealous of his wife when she has not defiled herself,
14 and if a feeling of jealousy comes over the husband and he becomes jealous because of his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he becomes jealous of her though she has not defiled herself—
14 If an attitude of jealousy overcomes him so that he becomes jealous at his wife when she is defiled, or if an attitude of jealousy overcomes him and he becomes jealous of his wife even though she isn't defiled,
15 then the man must bring his wife to the priest, and he must bring the offering required for her, one tenth of an ephah of barley meal; he must not pour olive oil on it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering of suspicion, a grain offering for remembering, for bringing iniquity to remembrance.
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.
15 the man shall then bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring as (h)an offering for her one-tenth of an (i)ephah of barley meal; he shall not pour oil on it nor put frankincense on it, for it is a grain offering of jealousy, a grain offering of memorial, (M)a reminder of iniquity.
15 then the man is to bring his wife to the priest. He is also to bring an offering for her of two quarts(c) of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it because it is a grain offering of jealousy, a grain offering for remembrance that brings sin to mind.
15 then that man is to bring his wife to the priest along with an offering for her consisting of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil or set frankincense over it, because it's to be a jealousy offering, a memorial offering that will serve as a reminder of iniquity.
16 "'Then the priest will bring her near and have her stand before the Lord.
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD:
16 ‘Then the priest shall bring her near and have her stand before the Lord,
16 “The priest is to bring her forward and have her stand before the Lord.

17 The priest will then take holy water in a pottery jar, and take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle, and put it into the water.
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:
17 and the priest shall take holy water in an earthenware vessel; and (j)he shall 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 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:

18 The priest is to have the woman stand in the LORD's presence, uncover her head, and put the grain offering as a memorial, a reminder of jealousy, into her hands. The priest is also to have in his hand the contaminated water that carries a curse.
19 Then the priest will put the woman under oath and say to the her, "If no other man has had sexual relations with you, and if you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband's authority, may you be free from this bitter water that brings a curse.
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:
19 The priest shall have her take an oath and shall say to the woman, “If no man has lain with you and if you have not (N)gone astray into uncleanness, being under the authority of your husband, be (l)immune to this water of bitterness that brings a curse;
19 The priest will require the woman to take an oath and will say to her, ‘If no man has slept with you, if you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, be unaffected by this bitter water that brings a curse.
19 "The priest is to administer this oath to the woman: "If indeed another man didn't have sexual relations with you and you didn't become unfaithful to your husband, then may you be free from these waters that bring 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 had sexual relations with you."
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:
20 if you, however, have (O)gone astray, being under the authority of your husband, and if you have defiled yourself and a man other than your husband has had intercourse with you”
20 But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority, if you have defiled yourself and a man other than your husband has slept with you’—
20 But if you have become unfaithful to your husband and have become defiled because a man who isn't your husband has had sexual relations with you"'
21 Then the priest will put the woman under the oath of the curse and will say to the her, "The Lord make you an attested curse among your people, if the Lord makes your thigh fall away and your abdomen swell;
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;
21 (then the priest shall have the woman (P)swear with the oath of the curse, and the priest shall say to the woman), “the Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people by the Lord’s making your thigh (m)waste away and your abdomen swell;
21 at this point the priest must make the woman take the oath with the sworn curse, and he is to say to her—‘May the Lord make you into an object of your people’s cursing and swearing when He makes your thigh(e) shrivel and your belly swell.(f)
21 then the priest is to have the woman commit to an oath by saying to the woman, "May the LORD make you a curse and a curse among your people. When the LORD makes your thigh waste away and your abdomen swell
22 and this water that causes the curse will go into your stomach, and make your abdomen swell and your thigh rot." Then the woman must say, "Amen, amen."
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.
22 and this water that brings a curse shall go into your (n)stomach, and make your abdomen swell and your thigh (o)waste away.” And the woman (Q)shall say, “Amen. Amen.”
22 May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach, causing your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’“And the woman must reply, ‘Amen, Amen.’

24 He will make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and the water that brings a curse will enter her to produce bitterness.
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.
