1The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron,

1The LORD told Moses and Aaron,

2"This is the legal statute that the LORD has commanded: Instruct the Israelites to bring you an unblemished red cow that has no defect and has never been yoked.

2"This is the ordinance of the law that the LORD commanded that the Israelis be told: They are to bring you a spotless red heifer, without physical defect, that has never been fitted with a yoke.

3Give it to the priest Eleazar, and he will have it brought outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence.

3They are to deliver it to Eleazar the priest, and it is to be brought outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence.

4The priest Eleazar is to take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting.

4Then Eleazar the priest is to take blood from it with his finger and sprinkle the blood in front of the Tent of Meeting.

5The cow is to be burned in his sight. Its hide, flesh, and blood, are to be burned along with its waste.

5The entire heifer is to be incinerated in his presence, including its skin, its flesh, its blood, and its dung.

6The priest is to take cedar wood, hyssop, and crimson yarn, and throw them onto the fire where the cow is burning.

6Then the priest is to take some cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet material and throw it into the middle of the burning heifer.

7Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe his body in water; after that he may enter the camp, but he will remain ceremonially unclean until evening.

7The priest is to wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, after which he may enter the camp, but he is to remain unclean until evening.

8The one who burned the cow must also wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and he will remain unclean until evening.

8Whoever takes part in the burning is to wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and is to remain unclean until the evening.

9"A man who is clean is to gather up the cow's ashes and deposit them outside the camp in a ceremonially clean place. The ashes will be kept by the Israelite community for preparing the water to remove impurity; it is a sin offering.

9Then someone who is unclean is to gather the ashes of the heifer and lay them outside the camp in a clean place. This is to be done for the community of Israel to use for water of purification from sin.

10Then the one who gathers up the cow's ashes must wash his clothes, and he will remain unclean until evening. This is a permanent statute for the Israelites and for the alien who resides among them.

10Whoever gathers the ashes of the heifer is to wash his clothes and is to remain unclean until the evening. This ordinance is to remain for the benefit of both the Israelis and the resident aliens who live among them."

11"The person who touches any human corpse will be unclean for seven days.

11"Whoever comes in contact with the body of a dead person is to remain unclean for seven days.

12He is to purify himself on the third day and he will be clean on the seventh day. But if he can't purify himself on the third day then he can't be clean on the seventh day.

13Anyone who touches a body of a person who has died, and does not purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD. That person will be cut off from Israel. He remains unclean because the water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him, and his uncleanness is still on him.

13Anyone who comes in contact with a dead person (that is, with the corpse of a human being who has died), but who does not purify himself, defiles the LORD's tent. That person is to be eliminated from Israel, because the water of impurity wasn't sprinkled on him. He remains unclean and his uncleanness will remain with him.

14"This is the law when a person dies in a tent: everyone who enters the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days,

19The clean person is to sprinkle the unclean person on the third day and seventh day and then he is to purify himself on the seventh day, wash his clothes, and bathe with water. He is to be considered clean at evening.
