Leviticus 15:1-14 ▼

1 And YHWH spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying,

2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them, ‘Any man—when there is a discharge from his flesh his discharge—it is unclean.

3 And this shall be his uncleanness in regard to his discharge—whether his flesh runs with his discharge, or his flesh is stopped up from his discharge; it is his uncleanness.

4 Every bed on which the one discharging lies is unclean, and every vessel that he sits on shall be unclean.

5 And a man that touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

6 And the one sitting on the vessel on which the one discharging sits shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

7 And the one touching the flesh of the one discharging shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

8 And if the one discharging spits on one who is clean, then he shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

9 And any saddle on which the one discharging rides shall be unclean.

10 And anyone who touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until the evening, and the one carrying them shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

11 And all who touch against the one discharging, and his hands he has not rinsed in the water, then he shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe in the water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

12 And the earthen vessel that the one discharging touches, shall be broken, and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in the water.

13 And when the one discharging is clean from his discharge, then he shall count for himself seven days for his cleansing, and he shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in living water, and he shall be clean.

14 And on the eighth day he shall take for himself two turtledoves or two sons of a pigeon, and he shall come before the face of YHWH to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and he shall give them to the priest.
