3 And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, and it shall be brought outside the camp and be slaughtered in his presence.

4 And Eleazar the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle some of its blood toward the front of the tent of meeting seven times.

5 Then the heifer shall be burned in his sight; its hide, its flesh, and its blood, with its refuse, shall be burned.

6 And the priest shall take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet material, and throw it into the midst of the burning heifer.

7 The priest shall then wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and afterward come into the camp; but the priest will be unclean until evening.

8 The one who burns the heifer shall also wash his clothes in water and bathe his body in water, and will be unclean until evening.

9 Now a man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer and put them outside the camp in a clean place, and the congregation of the sons of Israel shall keep them for water to remove impurity; it is purification from sin.
