The Scriptures 1998

Numbers 5:1-10 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,

2. “Command the children of Yisra’ĕl to send out of the camp every leper, and everyone who has a discharge, and whoever becomes defiled for a being.

3. “Send out both male and female, send them outside the camp, so that they do not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell.”

4. And the children of Yisra’ĕl did so, to send them outside the camp. As יהוה had spoken to Mosheh, so the children of Yisra’ĕl did.

5. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,

6. “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit in trespass against יהוה, and that being is guilty,

7. then they shall confess their sin which they have done. And he shall restore his guilt in its principal, plus one-fifth of it, and give it to whom he has been guilty.

8. ‘But if the man has no relative to restore the guilt to, the guilt which is restored goes to יהוה, for the priest, in addition to the ram of the atonement with which atonement is made for him.

9. ‘And every contribution of all the set-apart gifts of the children of Yisra’ĕl, which they bring to the priest, becomes his.

10. ‘And every man’s set-apart gifts becomes his, whatever any man gives the priest becomes his.’ ”
