Bamidbar 5:27-31 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

27. And when he hath made her to drink the mayim, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass [i.e., been unfaithful] against her ish, that the mayim hame'ararim shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall waste away; and the isha shall become a curse among her people.

28. And if the isha be not defiled, but be tehorah (clean); then she shall be free, and shall conceive zera.

29. This is the torat hakena'ot (law of jealousy), when an isha goeth astray to another instead of her ish, and is defiled;

30. Or when the ruach kinah cometh upon him, and he be jealous over his isha, and shall set the isha before Hashem, and the kohen shall execute upon her all this torah.

31. Then shall the ish be free from guilt from avon, and this isha shall bear her avon.
