Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chief of Israel numbered, after their families, and after
the house of their fathers,
47
From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one
that came to do the service of the ministry, and the service of the burden in the tabernacle of the
congregation,
48
Even those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred
and fourscore.
49
According to the commandment of the L
ORD
they were numbered by the hand of
Moses, every one according to his service, and according to his burden: thus were they numbered
of him, as the L
ORD
commanded Moses.
CHAPTER 5
And the L
ORD
spake unto Moses, saying,
2
Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the
camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead:
3
Both
male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their
camps, in the midst whereof I dwell.
4
And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without
the camp: as the L
ORD
spake unto Moses, so did the children of Israel.
5
And the L
ORD
spake unto Moses, saying,
6
Speak unto the children of Israel, When a man or
woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the L
ORD
, and that person
be guilty;
7
Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense his
trespass with the principal thereof, and add unto it the fifth
part
thereof, and give
it
unto
him
against
whom he hath trespassed.
8
But if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass unto, let
the trespass be recompensed unto the L
ORD
,
even
to the priest; beside the ram of the atonement,
whereby an atonement shall be made for him.
9
And every offering of all the holy things of the
children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.
10
And every man’s hallowed things
shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
11
And the L
ORD
spake unto Moses, saying,
12
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto
them, If any man’s wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
13
And a man lie with her
carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and
there
be
no witness against her, neither she be taken
with the manner;
14
And the spirit of jealousy come
upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon
him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled:
15
Then shall the man bring his wife unto
the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth
part
of an ephah of barley meal; he shall
pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it
is
an offering of jealousy, an offering of
memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
16
And the priest shall bring her near, and set her
before the L
ORD
:
17
And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is
in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put
it
into the water:
18
And the priest shall
set the woman before the L
ORD
, and uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering of memorial
in her hands, which
is
the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water
