Numbers 5:22–27

²²and these waters that bring a curse will go into your intestines to cause your womb to swell and to make your hip fall away.”^u And the women will say, “Amen. Amen.”

²³“ ‘And the priests will write these curses on the scroll, and he will wipe them off into the waters of the bitterness. ²⁴He will make the woman drink the waters of the bitterness that brings^v a curse, and the waters of bitterness that bring a curse will go into her. ²⁵The priest will take the grain offering of jealousy from the hand of the woman, and he will wave the grain offering before Yahweh,^w and he will present it to the altar; ²⁶the priest will grasp her memorial offering from the grain offering, and he will turn it into smoke on the altar, and afterward he will make the woman drink the waters. ²⁷When he has made her drink the waters, it will come about, if she has defiled herself and acted unfaithfully to her husband and the waters of bitterness that bring a curse go into her and her stomach swells and her hip falls away,^x the woman will be as a curse in the midst of her people.
