Numbers 5:26-28

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁶ To take a handful of the sacrifice of that which is offered, and burn it upon the altar: and so give the most bitter waters to the woman to drink.

²⁷ And when she hath drunk them, if she be defiled, and having despised her husband be guilty of adultery, the malediction shall go through her, and her belly swelling, her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse, and an example to all the people.

²⁸ But if she be not defiled, she shall not be hurt, and shall bear children.
