Translation of the Latin Vulgate |
| 5:1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens | 5:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: |
| 5:2 praecipe filiis Israhel ut eiciant de castris omnem leprosum et qui semine fluit pollutusque est super mortuo | 5:2. Command 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: |
| 5:3 tam masculum quam feminam eicite de castris ne contaminent ea cum habitaverim vobiscum | 5:3. Whether it be man or woman, cast ye them out of the camp, lest they defile it when I shall dwell with you, |
| 5:4 feceruntque ita filii Israhel et eiecerunt eos extra castra sicut locutus erat Dominus Mosi | 5:4. And the children of Israel did so, and they cast them forth without the camp, as the Lord had spoken to Moses. |
| 5:5 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens | 5:5. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: |
| 5:6 loquere ad filios Israhel vir sive mulier cum fecerint ex omnibus peccatis quae solent hominibus accidere et per neglegentiam transgressi fuerint mandatum Domini atque deliquerint | 5:6. Say 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, |
| 5:7 confitebuntur peccatum suum et reddent ipsum caput quintamque partem desuper ei in quem peccaverint | 5:7. They shall confess their sin, and restore the principal itself, and the fifth part over and above, to him against whom they have sinned. |
| 5:8 sin autem non fuerit qui recipiat dabunt Domino et erit sacerdotis excepto ariete qui offertur pro expiatione ut sit placabilis hostia | 5:8. But 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. |
| 5:9 omnes quoque primitiae quas offerunt filii Israhel ad sacerdotem pertinent | 5:9. All the firstfruits also, which the children of Israel offer, belong to the priest: |
| 5:10 et quicquid in sanctuarium offertur a singulis et traditur manibus sacerdotis ipsius erit | 5:10. And whatsoever is offered into the sanctuary by every one, and is delivered into the hands of the priest, it shall be his. |
| 5:11 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens | 5:11. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: |
| 5:12 loquere ad filios Israhel et dices ad eos vir cuius uxor erraverit maritumque contemnens | 5:12. Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man whose wife shall have gone astray, and contemning her husband, |
| 5:13 dormierit cum altero viro et hoc maritus deprehendere non quiverit sed latet adulterium et testibus argui non potest quia non est inventa in stupro | 5:13. Shall 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: |
| 5:14 si spiritus zelotypiae concitaverit virum contra uxorem suam quae vel polluta est vel falsa suspicione appetitur | 5:14. If the spirit of jealousy stir up the husband against his wife, who either is defiled, or is charged with false suspicion, |
| 5:15 adducet eam ad sacerdotem et offeret oblationem pro illa decimam partem sati farinae hordiaciae non fundet super eam oleum nec inponet tus quia sacrificium zelotypiae est et oblatio investigans adulterium | 5:15. He 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. |
| 5:16 offeret igitur eam sacerdos et statuet coram Domino | 5:16. The priest therefore shall offer it, and set it before the Lord. |
| 5:17 adsumetque aquam sanctam in vase fictili et pauxillum terrae de pavimento tabernaculi mittet in eam | 5:17. And he shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and he shall cast a little earth of the pavement of the tabernacle into it. |
| 5:18 cumque steterit mulier in conspectu Domini discoperiet caput eius et ponet super manus illius sacrificium recordationis et oblationem zelotypiae ipse autem tenebit aquas amarissimas in quibus cum execratione maledicta congessit | 5:18. And 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. |
| 5:19 adiurabitque eam et dicet si non dormivit vir alienus tecum et si non polluta es deserto mariti toro non te nocebunt aquae istae amarissimae in quas maledicta congessi | 5:19. And 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. |
| 5:20 sin autem declinasti a viro tuo atque polluta es et concubuisti cum altero | 5:20. But if thou hast gone aside from thy husband, and art defiled, and hast lain with another man: |
| 5:21 his maledictionibus subiacebis det te Dominus in maledictionem exemplumque cunctorum in populo suo putrescere faciat femur tuum et tumens uterus disrumpatur | 5:21. These 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. |
| 5:22 ingrediantur aquae maledictae in ventrem tuum et utero tumescente putrescat femur et respondebit mulier amen amen | 5:22. Let the cursed waters enter into thy belly, and may thy womb swell and thy thigh rot. And the woman shall answer, Amen, amen. |
| 5:23 scribetque sacerdos in libello ista maledicta et delebit ea aquis amarissimis in quas maledicta congessit | 5:23. And 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, |
| 5:24 et dabit ei bibere quas cum exhauserit | 5:24. And he shall give them her to drink. And when she hath drunk them up, |
| 5:25 tollet sacerdos de manu eius sacrificium zelotypiae et elevabit illud coram Domino inponetque super altare ita dumtaxat ut prius | 5:25. The 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, |
| 5:26 pugillum sacrificii tollat de eo quod offertur et incendat super altare et sic potum det mulieri aquas amarissimas | 5:26. To 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. |
| 5:27 quas cum biberit si polluta est et contempto viro adulterii rea pertransibunt eam aquae maledictionis et inflato ventre conputrescet femur eritque mulier in maledictionem et in exemplum omni populo | 5:27. And 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. |
| 5:28 quod si polluta non fuerit erit innoxia et faciet liberos | 5:28. But if she be not defiled, she shall not be hurt, and shall bear children. |
| 5:29 ista est lex zelotypiae si declinaverit mulier a viro suo et si polluta fuerit | 5:29. This is the law of jealousy. If a woman hath gone aside from her husband, and be defiled, |
| 5:30 maritusque zelotypiae spiritu concitatus adduxerit eam in conspectu Domini et fecerit ei sacerdos iuxta omnia quae scripta sunt | 5:30. And 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: |
| 5:31 maritus absque culpa erit et illa recipiet iniquitatem suam | 5:31. The husband shall be blameless, and she shall bear her iniquity. |
