Numbers 5:15-17
Holman Christian Standard Bible
15 then the man is to bring his wife to the priest. He is also to bring an offering for her of two quarts[a] of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it because it is a grain offering of jealousy, a grain offering for remembrance that brings sin to mind.
16 “The priest is to bring her forward and have her stand before the Lord. 17 Then the priest is to take holy water in a clay bowl, and take some of the dust from the tabernacle floor and put it in the water.
