Numbers 5:22-27

22and this waterH4325 that causeth the curseH779 shall goH935 into thy bowelsH4578, and make thy body to swellH6638, and thy thighH3409 to fallH5307 away. And the womanH802 shall sayH559, AmenH543, AmenH543.

23And the priestH3548 shall writeH3789 these cursesH423 in a bookH5612, and he shall blot them out into the waterH4325 of bitternessH4751: 24and he shall make the womanH802 drinkH8248 the waterH4325 of bitternessH4751 that causeth the curseH779; and the waterH4325 that causeth the curseH779 shall enter into her and become bitterH4751. 25And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 the meal-offering of jealousyH7068 out of the woman’sH802 handH3027, and shall waveH5130 the meal-offering before Jehovah, and bringH7126 it unto the altarH4196: 26and the priestH3548 shall takeH7061 a handfulH7061 of the meal-offering, as the memorialH234 thereof, and burn it upon the altarH4196, and afterward shall make the womanH802 drinkH8248 the waterH4325. 27And when he hath made her drinkH8248 the waterH4325, then it shall comeH935 to pass, if she beH1961 defiledH2930, and have committed a trespass against her husbandH376, that the waterH4325 that causeth the curseH779 shall enter into her and becomeH1961 bitterH4751, and her body shall swellH6638, and her thighH3409 shall fallH5307 away: and the womanH802 shall beH1961 a curseH779 among her peopleH5971.
