International Standard Version
Numbers 5:15-17
International Standard Version
15 then that man is to bring his wife to the priest along with an offering for her consisting of a tenth of an ephah[a] of barley flour. He is not to pour oil or set frankincense over it, because it’s to be a jealousy offering, a memorial offering that will serve as a reminder of iniquity. 16 Then the priest is to bring it and make her stand in the Lord’s presence. 17 The priest is to put some holy water into an earthen vessel, take some dust from the floor of the tent, and put it into the water.
