5:11 Testing for an unfaithful wife

11Then Yahweh told Mosheh, 12Tell the Israelis that if any man’s wife has an affair and is unfaithful towards him, 13when another man secretly has sex with her, then she becomes ‘unclean’, even though there’s no witness against her and she wasn’t caught. 14If the husband becomes suspicious, whether or not she’s actually become ‘unclean’, 15then he should take her to a priest. He must also bring an offering on her behalf: two litres of barley flour. It must not have any oil or spices mixed into it because it’s a grain offering for suspicion—for determining if unfaithfulness has occurred.

16Then the priest must lead her forward and stand her in front of Yahweh. 17He must fill a pottery jar with sacred water, and then mix some dust from the floor of Yahweh’s residence into the water. 18 19 20 21 22
