5:15 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he

uncover the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial
in her hands, which [is] the jealousy offering: and the

the {i} curse:
(i) It was so called by the effect, because it declared the
woman to be accursed, and turned to her destruction.
Nu 5:21

cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD
make thee a {k} curse and an oath among thy people, when

swell;

forswore herself in denying the same.

bowels, to make [thy] belly to swell, and [thy] thigh to
