Numbers 5

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2Command the children of Israel, that they cast out of the camp every leper, and whosoever hath an issue of seed, or is defiled by the dead:
Leviticus 13:46, Leviticus 21:1, Leviticus 13:46, Leviticus 21:1, Numbers 12:14
3Whether it be man or woman, cast ye them out of the camp, lest they defile it when I shall dwell with you,
Deuteronomy 23:14, Deuteronomy 23:14, Leviticus 26:11, Leviticus 26:12, Leviticus 26:11
4And the children of Israel did so, and they cast them forth without the camp, as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
5And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
6Say to the children of Israel: When a man or woman shall have committed any of all the sins that men are wont to commit, and by negligence shall have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and offended,
Leviticus 5:1, Leviticus 5:4, Leviticus 5:1, Leviticus 5:4, Leviticus 5:14
7They shall confess their sin, and restore the principal itself, and the fifth part over and above, to him against whom they have sinned.
Leviticus 5:5, Leviticus 5:5, Leviticus 26:40, Joshua 7:19, Leviticus 26:40
8But if there be no one to receive it, they shall give it to the Lord, and it shall be the priest's, besides the ram that is offered for expiation, to be an atoning sacrifice.
Leviticus 6:6, Leviticus 6:7, Leviticus 6:6, Leviticus 6:7, Leviticus 7:7
9All the firstfruits also, which the children of Israel offer, belong to the priest:
Exodus 29:28, Leviticus 6:17, Leviticus 6:18, Deuteronomy 18:3, Deuteronomy 18:4
10And whatsoever is offered into the sanctuary by every one, and is delivered into the hands of the priest, it shall be his.
Leviticus 10:13, Leviticus 10:13
11And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man whose wife shall have gone astray, and contemning her husband,
Numbers 5:19, Numbers 5:20, Numbers 5:19, Numbers 5:20, Proverbs 2:16
13Shall have slept with another man, and her husband cannot discover it, but the adultery is secret, and cannot be proved by witnesses, because she was not found in the adultery:
Leviticus 18:20, Leviticus 18:20, Leviticus 20:10, Leviticus 20:10, Proverbs 30:20
14If the spirit of jealousy stir up the husband against his wife, who either is defiled, or is charged with false suspicion,
Song of Solomon 8:6, Proverbs 6:34, Song of Solomon 8:6, Proverbs 6:34, 1 Corinthians 10:22
15He shall bring her to the priest, and shall offer an oblation for her, the tenth part of a measure of barley meal: he shall not pour oil thereon, nor put frankincense upon it: because it is a sacrifice of jealousy, and an oblation searching out adultery.
Ezekiel 29:16, Ezekiel 29:16, Leviticus 5:11, 1 Kings 17:18, Leviticus 5:11
16The priest therefore shall offer it, and set it before the Lord.
Revelation 2:22, Revelation 2:23, Leviticus 1:3, Jeremiah 17:10, Hebrews 13:4
17And he shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and he shall cast a little earth of the pavement of the tabernacle into it.
Exodus 30:18, Exodus 30:18, John 8:6, John 8:6, Lamentations 3:29
18And when the woman shall stand before the Lord, he shall uncover her head, and shall put on her hands the sacrifice of remembrance, and the oblation of jealousy: and he himself shall hold the most bitter waters, whereon he hath heaped curses with execration.
Ecclesiastes 7:26, Numbers 5:22, 1 Corinthians 11:6, Revelation 10:9, Revelation 10:10
19And he shall adjure her, and shall say: If another man hath not slept with thee, and if thou be not defiled by forsaking thy husband's bed, these most bitter waters, on which I have heaped curses, shall not hurt thee.
Romans 7:2, Numbers 5:12, Romans 7:2, Numbers 5:12, Matthew 26:63
20But if thou hast gone aside from thy husband, and art defiled, and hast lain with another man:
Numbers 5:12, Numbers 5:12
21These curses shall light upon thee: The Lord make thee a curse, and an example for all among his people: may he make thy thigh to rot, and may thy belly swell and burst asunder.
Joshua 6:26, Nehemiah 10:29, 1 Samuel 14:24, Joshua 6:26, Nehemiah 10:29
22Let the cursed waters enter into thy belly, and may thy womb swell and thy thigh rot. And the woman shall answer, Amen, amen.
Psalms 109:18, Psalms 109:18, Psalms 72:19, John 3:3, Proverbs 1:31
23And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and shall wash them out with the most bitter waters, upon which he hath heaped the curses,
Isaiah 43:25, Jeremiah 51:60, Jeremiah 51:64, Acts 3:19, 1 Corinthians 16:21
24And he shall give them her to drink. And when she hath drunk them up,
Malachi 3:5, Zechariah 5:3, Zechariah 5:4, Malachi 3:5, Zechariah 5:3
25The priest shall take from her hand the sacrifice of jealousy, and shall elevate it before the Lord, and shall put it upon the altar: yet so as first,
Leviticus 8:27, Leviticus 8:27, Numbers 5:15, Exodus 29:24, Numbers 5:18
26To take a handful of the sacrifice of that which is offered, and burn it upon the altar: and so give the most bitter waters to the woman to drink.
Leviticus 2:2, Leviticus 2:2, Leviticus 5:12, Leviticus 2:9, Leviticus 5:12
27And when she hath drunk them, if she be defiled, and having despised her husband be guilty of adultery, the malediction shall go through her, and her belly swelling, her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse, and an example to all the people.
Jeremiah 29:18, Jeremiah 42:18, Jeremiah 29:18, Jeremiah 42:18, Zechariah 8:13
28But if she be not defiled, she shall not be hurt, and shall bear children.
Psalms 113:9, Micah 7:7, Micah 7:10, 2 Corinthians 4:17, 1 Peter 1:7
29This is the law of jealousy. If a woman hath gone aside from her husband, and be defiled,
Numbers 5:19, Numbers 5:19, Numbers 5:12, Numbers 5:12, Leviticus 15:32
30And the husband stirred up by the spirit of jealousy bring her before the Lord, and the priest do to her according to all things that are here written:
31The husband shall be blameless, and she shall bear her iniquity.
Leviticus 20:10, Leviticus 20:10, Romans 2:8, Romans 2:9, Romans 2:8
