Numbers 19:13-22

¹³Every one that touches the carcass of the person of a man, if he should have died, and the other not have been purified, has defiled the tabernacle of the Lord: that soul shall be cut off from Israel, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him.

¹⁴And this is the law; if a man die in a house, everyone that goes into the house, and all things in the house, shall be unclean seven days.

¹⁵And every open vessel which has not a covering bound upon it, shall be unclean.

¹⁶And everyone who shall touch a man slain by violence, or a corpse, or human bone, or sepulcher, shall be unclean seven days.

¹⁷And they shall take for the unclean of the burnt ashes of purification, and they shall pour upon them running water into a vessel.

¹⁸And a clean man shall take hyssop, and dip it into the water, and sprinkle it upon the house, and the furniture, and all the souls that are therein, and upon him that touched the human bone, or the slain man, or the corpse, or the tomb.

¹⁹And the clean man shall sprinkle the water on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day, and on the seventh day he shall purify himself; and the other shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening.

²⁰And whatever man shall be defiled and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the congregation, because he has defiled the holy things of the Lord, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean.

²¹And it shall be to you a perpetual statute; and he that sprinkles the water of sprinkling shall wash his garments; and he that touches the water of sprinkling shall be unclean until evening.

²²And whatsoever the unclean man shall touch shall be unclean, and the soul that touches it shall be unclean till evening.
