But suppose the thief is not found. Then the neighbor must go to the judges. They will decide whether the neighbor has stolen the other person’s property.Suppose you have an ox, donkey, sheep or clothing that does not belong to you. Or you have other property lost by someone else. And suppose someone says,‘ That belongs to me.’ Then both people must bring their case to the judges. The one the judges decide is guilty must pay back twice as much to the other person.“ Suppose someone asks their neighbor to take care of a donkey, ox, sheep or any other animal. And suppose the animal dies or gets hurt. Or suppose it is stolen while no one is looking.Then the problem will be settled by promising the Lord to tell the truth. Suppose the neighbor says,‘ I didn’t steal your property.’ Then the owner must accept what the neighbor says. No payment is required.

If you don’t, I might have too much. Then I might say I don’t know you. I might say,‘ Who is the Lord?’ Or I might become poor and steal. Then I would bring shame to the name of my God.

“‘ The priest must have her stand in front of the Lord.He must pour some holy water into a clay jar. He must get some dust from the floor of the holy tent. And he must put it into the water.The priest must have the woman stand in front of the Lord. Then he must untie her hair. He must place in her hands the offering that calls attention to the wrong thing a person has done. It is the grain offering for being jealous. The priest must keep the bitter water with him. It is the water that brings a curse.Then the priest must have the woman give her word. He must say to her,“ Suppose no other man has had sex with you. And suppose you haven’t gone astray. You have kept yourself pure while you are married to your husband. Then may the bitter water that brings a curse not harm you.But suppose you have gone astray while you are married to your husband. You have made yourself‘ unclean.’ You have had sex with a man who isn’t your husband.”At that point the priest must put the woman under the curse that will come if she breaks her word. He must say,“ May the Lord cause you to become a curse among your people. You will become a curse when the Lord makes your body unable to have children.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.”

“‘ Suppose someone has been called as a witness to something they have seen or learned about. Then if they do not tell what they know, they have sinned. And they will be held responsible for it.

“ Suppose someone does something wrong to their neighbor. And the person who has done something wrong is required to give their word. They must tell the truth about what they have done. They must come and do it in front of your altar in this temple.When they do, listen to them from heaven. Take action. Judge between the person and their neighbor. Pay back the guilty one. Do to them what they have done to their neighbor. Deal with the one who isn’t guilty in a way that shows they are free from blame. That will prove they aren’t guilty.
