New International Version

He must also take an offering of a tenth of an ephah[a](B) of barley flour(C) on her behalf. He must not pour olive oil on it or put incense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy,(D) a reminder-offering(E) to draw attention to wrongdoing.
16 “‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the Lord.
