Numbers 19:1-5 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to 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.

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

4 The 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.

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