And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse:
El sacerdote le hará jurar y le dirá a la mujer: 'Si ningún hombre se ha acostado contigo, y si no has sido infiel a tu marido estando con otro hombre, entonces esta agua amarga que trae maldición no te hará daño.'
El sacerdote declara que si la mujer es inocente de adulterio, el agua de la prueba no le causará daño.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the ancient Israelite community, as described in the Book of Numbers, this verse is part of a ritual for addressing a husband's suspicions of his wife's infidelity, known as the law of jealousy. The priest would administer an oath to the woman and prepare bitter water that could bring a curse if she were guilty, reflecting the cultural emphasis on marital purity and the role of religious leaders in resolving domestic disputes. This practice highlighted the patriarchal society of the time, where such matters were handled through divine intervention rather than secular courts.
