NU-19:1  And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

NU-19:2  This [is] the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath

commanded,

saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee

a red heifer

without spot, wherein [is] no blemish, [and] upon which never

came yoke:

NU-19:3  And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he

may bring her

forth without the camp, and [one] shall slay her before his face:

NU-19:4  And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his

finger, and

sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the

congregation seven

times:

NU-19:5  And [one] shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin,

and her

flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:

NU-19:6  And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and

scarlet, and

cast [it] into the midst of the burning of the heifer.

NU-19:7  Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall

bathe his flesh

in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the

priest shall be

unclean until the even.

NU-19:8  And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water,

 and bathe

his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.

NU-19:9  And a man [that is] clean shall gather up the ashes of

the heifer,

and lay [them] up without the camp in a clean place, and it

shall be kept for

the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of

separation: it [is]

a purification for sin.

NU-19:10  And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall

wash his

clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be unto the

children of

Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a

statute for

ever.

NU-19:11  He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be

unclean seven

days.

NU-19:12  He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and

on the seventh

day he shall be clean: but if he purify not himself the third

day, then the

seventh day he shall not be clean.

NU-19:13  Whosoever toucheth the dead body of any man that is

dead, and

purifieth not himself, defileth the tabernacle of the LORD; and

that soul

shall be cut off from Israel: because the water of separation

was not

sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness [is]

yet upon him.

NU-19:14  This [is] the law, when a man dieth in a tent: all

that come into

the tent, and all that [is] in the tent, shall be unclean seven

days.

NU-19:15  And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound

upon it, [is]

unclean.

NU-19:16  And whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword

in the open

fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be

unclean seven

days.

NU-19:17  And for an unclean [person] they shall take of the

ashes of the

burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall be

put thereto

in a vessel:

NU-19:18  And a clean person shall 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:

NU-19:19  And the clean [person] shall sprinkle upon the unclean

on the third

day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall

purify himself,

and wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be

clean at even.

NU-19:20  But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not

purify himself,

that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because

he hath

defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water of separation hath

not been

sprinkled upon him; he [is] unclean.

NU-19:21  And it shall be a perpetual statute unto them, that he

that

sprinkleth the water of separation shall wash his clothes; and

he that

toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean until even.

NU-19:22  And whatsoever the unclean [person] toucheth shall be

unclean; and

the soul that toucheth [it] shall be unclean until even.
