Numbers 5:1-7 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2. “Command the Israelites: they must send everyone from the camp who is afflicted with a rash, everyone with a fluid discharge, and everyone unclean through contact with a corpse.

3. You will send away both male and female; you will send them outside the camp. They must not make unclean their camps where I am dwelling in their midst.”

4. So the Israelites did so. They sent them away outside the camp; just as Yahweh spoke to Moses, so did the Israelites.

5. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

6. “Speak to the Israelites: ‘When a man or woman commits any of the sins of humankind by acting unfaithfully, it is a sin against Yahweh, and that person will be guilty;

7. they will confess their sin that they did and will make restitution for their guilt by adding a fifth to it and giving it to whomever was wronged.
