Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.

Verse 31 is found in chapter 5 of Numbers. The test for jealousy regulates a marital situation in which there is suspicion of unfaithfulness without sufficient evidence. The procedure places the matter under God’s judgment rather than allowing an uncontrolled private accusation. The passage belongs to the legislation of camp holiness and shows how Israel was to handle sensitive conflicts through established ritual procedures.

Und der Mann soll unschuldig sein an der Missetat; aber das Weib soll ihre Missetat tragen.
Y aquel varón será libre de iniquidad, y la mujer llevará su pecado.
El hombre quedará libre de culpa, y la mujer cargará con su culpa».
Le mari sera exempt de faute, mais la femme portera la peine de son iniquité.
E sia il marito esente di colpa, ma porti la donna la sua iniquità
E o homem será livre da iniqüidade, porém a mulher levará a sua iniqüidade.
男人可免罪責;女人必須擔當自己的罪孽。」
