Numbers 19:18-22 ▼

18 And a man who is ceremonially clean shall take hyssop and dip it in the water and sprinkle it on the tent and on all the vessels and on the persons who were there, or on the one who touched against a bone, or against the slain, or against the dead, or against a grave.

19 And the clean one shall sprinkle it on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day, and he shall cleanse him from sin on the seventh day and wash his clothes and bathe in the water, and he shall be clean at the evening.

20 And the man who is unclean and does not cleanse himself from sin, that person shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of YHWH. The water of purification has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.

21 And it shall be for them an everlasting statute. He who sprinkles the water of purification shall wash his clothes, and he who touches the water of purification shall be unclean until the evening.

22 And whatever the unclean one touches in it shall be unclean, and the person who touches it shall be unclean until the evening.”
