Bible Verses

This shall be a lasting ordinance for you. The man who sprinkles the water of purification shall wash his clothes, and those who touch this water are unclean until the evening.

But if the unclean man does not cleanse himself, he shall be removed from the assembly, lest he defile the Lord’s Sanctuary. He is unclean as long as the purification water has not been thrown upon him.

The clean man shall sprinkle water on the unclean on the third and the seventh days. So, on the seventh day, the unclean is cleansed; he shall wash his clothes and bathe himself on this day, and in the evening, he will become clean.

A clean man shall dip a twig of hyssop in the water and sprinkle it on the house, everything in it, and the persons there. And he shall sprinkle it on the one who touched the bone, dead body, slain, or grave.

For the unclean, you shall take some of the ashes of the cow offered for the sin and throw it into the water in a vessel.

Anyone in the open country who touches a person who has been killed, or a person who had died, or human bones or a tomb, becomes unclean for seven days.

Equally unclean shall be every open jar and pot in the house that has not been closed with a lid or fastened.

This is the law when a person dies in a house. Anyone who goes into the house, or anyone already there, becomes unclean for seven days.

Anyone who touches a dead person, the body of a man that has died and has not purified himself, defiles the Holy Tent of the Lord; such a person must be cut off from Israel because the waters for purification have not flowed over him; he is unclean, and his uncleanness remains in him.

He shall purify himself with these waters on the third and the seventh day, and he will be clean; but if he does not purify himself on the third and the seventh day, he will not be clean.
