So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,

These are the men Moses and Aaron registered, with the assistance of the twelve leaders of Israel; each represented his ancestral family.

“The Israelites are to camp by their military divisions, each man with his encampment and under his banner.

“Each one’s holy contribution is his to give; what each one gives to the priest will be his.”

“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: If any man’s wife goes astray, is unfaithful to him,

“and sleeps with another,[fn] but it is concealed from her husband, and she is undetected, even though she has defiled herself, since there is no witness against her, and she wasn’t caught in the act;

“The priest will require the woman to take an oath and will say to her, ‘If no man has slept with you, if you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, be unaffected by this bitter water that brings a curse.

“But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority, if you have defiled yourself and a man other than your husband has slept with you’ ​— ​

“When he makes her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, the water that brings a curse will enter her to cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, and her womb will shrivel. She will become a curse among her people.

“This is the law regarding jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,

and said to him, “We are unclean because of a human corpse. Why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering at its appointed time with the other Israelites? ”

Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD. He brought seventy men from the elders of the people and had them stand around the tent.

Then the LORD descended in the cloud and spoke to him. He took some of the Spirit who was on Moses and placed the Spirit on the seventy elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they never did it again.

Two men had remained in the camp, one named Eldad and the other Medad; the Spirit rested on them ​— ​they were among those listed, but had not gone out to the tent ​— ​and they prophesied in the camp.

Moses sent them from the Wilderness of Paran at the LORD’s command. All the men were leaders in Israel.

These were the names of the men Moses sent to scout out the land, and Moses renamed Hoshea son of Nun, Joshua.

So they gave a negative report to the Israelites about the land they had scouted: “The land we passed through to explore is one that devours its inhabitants, and all the people we saw in it are men of great size.

“place fire in them and put incense on them before the LORD. Then the man the LORD chooses will be the one who is set apart. It is you Levites who have gone too far! ”

Fire also came out from the LORD and consumed the 250 men who were presenting the incense.

“and her husband hears about it and says nothing to her when he finds out, her vows are binding, and the obligations she put herself under are binding.

“But if her husband prohibits her when he hears about it, he will cancel her vow that is binding or the rash commitment she herself made, and the LORD will release her.

“If a woman in her husband’s house has made a vow or put herself under an obligation with an oath,

“and her husband hears about it, says nothing to her, and does not prohibit her, all her vows are binding, and every obligation she put herself under is binding.

“But if her husband cancels them on the day he hears about it, nothing that came from her lips, whether her vows or her obligation, is binding. Her husband has canceled them, and the LORD will release her.

“Her husband may confirm or cancel any vow or any sworn obligation to deny herself.

These are the statutes that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the relationship between a man and his wife, or between a father and his daughter in his house during her youth.

Then the priest Eleazar said to the soldiers who had gone to battle, “This is the legal statute the LORD commanded Moses:

The captives remaining from the plunder the army had taken totaled:

675,000 sheep and goats,

and 32,000 people, all the females who had not gone to bed with a man.

From the Israelites’ half, which Moses separated from the men who fought,

and told him, “Your servants have taken a census of the fighting men under our command, and not one of us is missing.

“So we have presented to the LORD an offering of the gold articles each man found ​— ​armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces ​— ​to make atonement for ourselves before the LORD.”

Each of the soldiers had taken plunder for himself.

“These are the names of the men:

Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah;
