24. Then he will make the woman drink the water of bitterness that brings the curse. And the water that brings the curse will enter her, causing bitterness.
25. The priest will take the grain offering for jealousy from the woman’s hands, elevate the grain offering before the Lord, and bring it to the altar.
26. The priest will take a handful of the grain offering as a token part of it and turn it into smoke on the altar. And afterward he will make the woman drink the water.
27. When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and has broken faith with her husband, then the water that brings the curse will enter her, causing bitterness, and her womb will discharge and she will miscarry. The woman will be a curse among her people.
28. But if the woman hasn’t defiled herself and she is pure, then she will be immune and able to conceive.
29. These are the instructions about jealousy, when a wife has an affair while married to her husband and defiles herself,
30. or when jealousy overcomes a man and he is jealous of his wife. The priest will make the woman stand before the Lord and will follow all these instructions concerning her.
31. The man will be free from guilt, but the woman will bear her guilt.
