Chap. V.
Lepers and al polluted persons must be cast out of the campe. 5. Confession of
sinne, and satisfaction for trespa&esset;e. 9. First fruites and oblations pertaine

1 And our Lord spake to Moyses, saying:
2 Command
the children of Israel, that they cast out of the campe
noteeuerie leper, and whosoeuer hath a fluxe of seede, and is
polluted vpon the dead:
3 as wel man as woman cast yee
out of the campe, lest when they shal dwel with you, they

contaminate it.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and
they did cast them forth without the campe, as our Lord had
spoken to Moyses.
5 And our Lord spake to Moyses, saying:
6 Speake to the children of Israel: man, or woman, when
they shal do any of al the sinnes, that are wont to chance to
men, and by negligence haue transgressed the commandement
of the Lord, and haue offended,
7 they09Q0152 shal confesse
their sinne, and restore the principal it self, and the fifth part
ouer to him, against whom they sinned.
8 But if there be
none to receiue it, they shal geue it to the Lord, and it shal
be the priestes, the ramme excepted, that is offered for expiation,
to be a placable hoste.
9 Al the first fruites also, which
the children of Israel doe offer, pertaine to the priest:
10 and
whatsoeuer is offered into the Sanctuarie of euerie one, and
is deliuered to the handes of the priest, it shal be his.
11 And
our Lord spake to Moyses, saying:
12 Speake to the children
of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man, whose wife
erreth, and contemning her husband
13 hath slept with an
other man, and her husband could not find it, but the adulterie
is secrete, and can not be proued by witnesses, because
she was not found in the adulterous fact:
14 noteif the spirit of
ielousie stirre vp the husband against his wife, which either
is polluted, or is charged with false suspition,
15 he shal bring
her to the priest, and shal offer an oblation for her the note tenth
part of a satum of barley meale: he shal not powre oile
theron, nor put frankincense vpon it: because it is a sacrifice
of ielousie, and an oblation searching out adulterie.
16 The
priest therfore shal offer it, and set it before the Lord.
17 And
he shal take note holie water in an earthen vessel, and he shal
cast a little grauel of the pauement of the tabernacle into it.
18 And when the woman shal stand in the sight of the Lord,
he shal vncouer her head, and shal put vpon her handes the
sacrifice of recordation, and the oblation of ielousie: and
him selfe shal hold the most bitter waters, wheron he heaped
curses with execration.
19 and he shal adiure her, and shal
say: If an other man hath not slept with thee, and if thou be
not polluted by forsaking thy husbandes bedde, these most
bitter waters shal not hurt thee, wherupon I haue heaped
curses.
20 But if thou hast declined from thy husband, & art
polluted, and hast lien with an other man:
21 thou shalt be
subiect to these maledictions: Our Lord geue thee for a
-- --
Law of Ielousie,
malediction, and an example of al among his people: make
he thy thigh to rotte, and bellie swelling burst asunder.
22 the
notecursed water enter into thy bellie, and thy wombe being
swolne let thy thigh rotte. And the woman shal answer,
Amen, amen.
23 And the priest shal write these curses in a
booke, and shal wash them out with the most bitter waters,
wherupon he heaped the curses,
24 and he shal geue them
her to drinke. Which when she hath drunke vp,
25 the priest
shal take of her hand the sacrifice of ielousie, and shal eleuate
it before the Lord, and shal put it vpon the altar: yet so notwithstanding
that first,
26 he take a handful of the sacrifice of
that, which is offered, & burne it vpon the altar: and so geue
the most bitter waters to the woman to drinke.
27 Which
when she hath drunke, if she be polluted, and by contempt
of her husband guiltie of adulterie, the waters of malediction
shal goe through her, and her bellie being puft vp her thigh
shal totte withal: and the woman shal be for a malediction,
and an example to al the people.
28 But if she be not polluted,
she shal be blamelesse, and shal beare children.
29 This is the
law of ielousie. If the woman decline from her husband, and
if she be polluted,
30 and the husband stirred with the spirit
of ielousie brought her in the sight of the Lord, and the priest
haue done to her according to al thinges that are written:
31 the husband shal be without fault, and she shal beare her
iniquitie.
