1 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

2 Speak to the Israelites and tell them, 'When any man has a discharge from his body, his discharge is unclean.

3 Now this is his uncleanness in regard to his discharge--whether his body secretes his discharge or blocks his discharge, he is unclean. All the days that his body has a discharge or his body blocks his discharge, this is his uncleanness.

4 'Any bed the man with a discharge lies on will be unclean, and any furniture he sits on will be unclean.

5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash his clothes, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

6 The one who sits on the furniture the man with a discharge sits on must wash his clothes, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

7 The one who touches the body of the man with a discharge must wash his clothes, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

8 If the man with a discharge spits on a person who is ceremonially clean, that person must wash his clothes, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.
