1 And the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 This [is] the ordinance of the law which the LORD [Yahweh] has commanded, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring you a red heifer without spot, in which [is] no blemish, [and] upon which never came yoke:
3 And you will give her to Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and [one] will slay her before his face:
4 And Eleazar the priest will take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times:
5 And [one] will burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, will he burn:
6 And the priest will take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast [it] into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
7 Then the priest will wash his clothes, and he will bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he will come into the camp, and the priest will be unclean until the even.
8 And he that burns her will wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and will be unclean until the even.
9 And a man [that is] clean will gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay [them] up without the camp in a clean place, and it will be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it [is] a purification for sin.
10 And he that gathers the ashes of the heifer will wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it will be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger that sojourns among them, for a statute for ever.
11 He that touches the dead body of any man will be unclean seven days.
12 He will purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he will be clean: but if he purify not himself the third day, then the seventh day he will not be clean.
13 Whosoever touches the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifies not himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD [Yahweh]; and that soul will be cut off from Israel: because the water of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he will be unclean; his uncleanness [is] yet upon him.
14 This [is] the law, when a man dies in a tent: all that come into the tent, and all that [is] in the tent, will be unclean seven days.
15 And every open vessel, which has no covering bound upon it, [is] unclean.
16 And whoever touches one that is slain with a sword in the open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, will be unclean seven days.
17 And for an unclean [person] they will take of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water will be put to it in a vessel:
18 And a clean person will take hyssop, and dip [it] in the water, and sprinkle [it] upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons that were there, and upon him that touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave:
19 And the clean [person] will sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he will purify himself, and wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and will be clean at even.
20 But the man that will be unclean, and will not purify himself, that soul will be cut off from among the congregation, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD [Yahweh]: the water of separation has not been sprinkled upon him; he [is] unclean.
21 And it will be a perpetual statute to them, that he that sprinkles the water of separation will wash his clothes; and he that touches the water of separation will be unclean until even.
22 And whatever the unclean [person] touches will be unclean; and the soul that touches [it] will be unclean until even.
