[4:38] Those who were numbered of the sons of Gershon, their families, and by their fathers' houses, [4:39] from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered into the service, for work in the Tent of Meeting, [4:40] even those who were numbered of them, by their families, by their fathers' houses, were two thousand six hundred thirty. [4:41] These are those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, all who served in the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of Yahweh. [4:42] Those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by their fathers' houses, [4:43] from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered into the service, for work in the Tent of Meeting, [4:44] even those who were numbered of them by their families, were three thousand two hundred. [4:45] These are those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of Yahweh by Moses. [4:46] All those who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the princes of Israel numbered, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, [4:47] from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered in to do the work of service, and the work of bearing burdens in the Tent of Meeting, [4:48] even those who were numbered of them, were eight thousand five hundred eighty. [4:49] According to the commandment of Yahweh they were numbered by Moses, everyone according to his service, and according to his burden. Thus were they numbered by him, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
[5:1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [5:2] "Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper, and everyone who has an issue, and whoever is unclean by the dead. [5:3] Both you shall put male and female outside of the camp; that they not defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell."
[5:4] The children of Israel did so, and put them out outside of the camp; as Yahweh spoke to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
[5:5] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [5:6] "Speak to the children of Israel: When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit, so as to trespass against Yahweh, and that soul is guilty; [5:7] then he shall confess his sin which he has done, and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, and add to it the fifth part of it, and give it to him in respect of whom he has been guilty. [5:8] But if the man has no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made to Yahweh shall be the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, by which atonement shall be made for him. [5:9] Every heave offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present to the priest, shall be his. [5:10] Every man's holy things shall be his: whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his."
[5:11] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [5:12] "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: If any man's wife goes astray, and is unfaithful to him, [5:13] and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and is kept close, and she is defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she isn't taken in the act; [5:14] and the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she isn't defiled: [5:15] then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring her offering for her: the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal. He shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is a meal offering of jealousy, a meal offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to memory. [5:16] The priest shall bring her near, and set her before Yahweh; [5:17] and the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water. [5:18] The priest shall set the woman before Yahweh, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal offering of jealousy. The priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that brings a curse. [5:19] The priest shall cause her to swear, and shall tell the woman, 'If no man has lain with you, and if you haven't gone aside to uncleanness, being under your husband, be free from this water of bitterness that brings a curse. [5:20] But if you have gone astray, being under your husband, and if you are defiled, and some man has lain with you besides your husband:' [5:21] then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall tell the woman, 'Yahweh make you a curse and an oath among your people, when Yahweh allows your thigh to fall away, and your body to swell; [5:22] and this water that brings a curse will go into your bowels, and make your body swell, and your thigh fall away.' The woman shall say, 'Amen, Amen.'
[5:23] "The priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness. [5:24] He shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causes the curse; and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter. [5:25] The priest shall take the meal offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal offering before Yahweh, and bring it to the altar. [5:26] The priest shall take a handful of the meal offering, as its memorial, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water. [5:27] When he has made her drink the water, then it shall happen, if she is defiled, and has committed a trespass against her husband, that the water that causes the curse will enter into her and become bitter, and her body will swell, and her thigh will fall away: and the woman will be a curse among her people. [5:28] If the woman isn't defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
[5:29] "This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes astray, and is defiled; [5:30] or when the spirit of jealousy comes on a man, and he is jealous of his wife; then he shall set the woman before Yahweh, and the priest shall execute on her all this law. [5:31] The man shall be free from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity."
[6:1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [6:2] "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: When either man or woman shall make a special vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to Yahweh, [6:3] he shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of fermented drink, neither shall he drink any juice of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried. [6:4] All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is made of the grapevine, from the seeds even to the skins.
[6:5] "All the days of his vow of separation there shall no razor come on his head, until the days are fulfilled, in which he separates himself to Yahweh. He shall be holy. He shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long.
[6:6] "All the days that he separates himself to Yahweh he shall not go near a dead body. [6:7] He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die; because his separation to God is on his head. [6:8] All the days of his separation he is holy to Yahweh.
