Numbers 5:1-7 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. The Lord said to Moses,

2. “Tell the people to send away from the camp anyone who is unclean, that is, anyone who has a serious skin disease or discharge and anyone who has touched a dead body.

3. Whether they are a man or a woman, send them away so that the camp where I am living among you will not be made unclean.”

4. So the Israelites obeyed God’s command. They sent those people outside the camp. They did what the Lord had told Moses.

5. The Lord said to Moses,

6. “Tell this to the Israelites: You might do something wrong to another person. When you do that, you are really sinning against God. So you are guilty of doing wrong.

7. You must confess that sin. Then you must fully pay for that wrong thing you did. You must add one-fifth to the payment and give it all to the person you had done wrong to.
