Numbers 5:21-24 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

21. " 'At that point the priest must put the woman under the curse of the oath. He must say, "May the Lord cause your people to call a curse down on you. May he cause them to speak against you. May they do it when the Lord makes your body unable to have children.

22. May this water that brings a curse enter your body. May it make your body unable to have children." " 'Then the woman must say, "Amen. Let it happen."

23. " 'The priest must write the curses on a scroll. He must wash them off in the bitter water.

24. It is the water he will have the woman drink. It is bitter water that brings a curse. It will enter her body. And it will cause her to suffer bitterly.
