Bitter water » Ceremonial water » Used » By priests
and the priest shall cause the woman to stand before Yahweh, and shall bare the head of the woman, and shall place upon her hands the reminding gift, it being a jealousy gift, - and in the hand of the priest, shall be the deadly water that bringeth a curse; and the priest shall put her on oath and shall say unto the woman: - If no man hath lain with thee, and if thou hast not turned aside in uncleanness, unto another instead of thy husband, be thou clear from this deadly water that causeth a curse. But, if, thou, hast turned aside, to another instead of thy husband and if thou hast made thyself unclean, - in that a man hath known thee carnally, other than thy husband, read more.
then shall the priest put the woman on oath with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, Yahweh give thee up for a curse and for an oath in the midst of thy people, - in that Yahweh shall give up thy thigh to fall away, and thy womb to swell: so shall this water that causeth a curse enter into thy body, causing womb to swell and thigh to fall away. And the woman shall say, Amen, Amen. Then shall the priest write these curses in a scroll, - and wipe them out into the deadly water; and shall cause the woman to drink the deadly water that causeth a curse, - and the deadly water that causeth a curse shall enter into her. Then shall the priest take from the hand of the woman the jealousy meal-offering, - and shall wave the meal-offering before Yahweh, and bring it near unto the altar; and the priest shall take a handful from the meal-offering, a remembrancer thereof, and make a perfume at the altar, - and afterwards, shall cause the woman to drink the water. And as soon as he causeth her to drink, the water, then shall it be, that, if she have fallen into uncleanness and committed unfaithfulness against her husband, as soon as the deadly water that causeth a curse hath entered into her, so soon shall her womb swell and her thigh fall away, - thus shall the woman be-come a curse in the midst of her people.
