Leviticus:15
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron ,
saying ,
* "
Speak to the children of Israel ,
and say to them : "
When any man has a discharge from his body ,
his discharge is unclean .
*
And this shall be his uncleanness in regard to his discharge--whether his body runs with his discharge ,
or his body is stopped up by his discharge ,
it is his uncleanness .
*
Every bed is unclean on which he who has the discharge lies ,
and everything on which he sits shall be unclean .
*
And whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
He who sits on anything on which he who has the discharge sat shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
And he who touches the body of him who has the discharge shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
If he who has the discharge spits on him who is clean ,
then he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
Any saddle on which he who has the discharge rides shall be unclean .
*
Whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until evening .
He who carries any of those things shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
And whomever the one who has the discharge touches ,
and has not rinsed his hands in water ,
he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
The vessel of earth that he who has the discharge touches shall be broken ,
and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water .
* "
And when he who has a discharge is cleansed of his discharge ,
then he shall count for himself seven days for his cleansing ,
wash his clothes ,
and bathe his body in running water ;
then he shall be clean .
*
On the eighth day he shall take for himself two turtledoves or two young pigeons ,
and come before the LORD ,
to the door of the tabernacle of meeting ,
and give them to the priest .
*
Then the priest shall offer them ,
the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering .
So the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD because of his discharge .
* "
If any man has an emission of semen ,
then he shall wash all his body in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
And any garment and any leather on which there is semen ,
it shall be washed with water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
Also ,
when a woman lies with a man ,
and there is an emission of semen ,
they shall bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
* "
If a woman has a discharge ,
and the discharge from her body is blood ,
she shall be set apart seven days ;
and whoever touches her shall be unclean until evening .
*
Everything that she lies on during her impurity shall be unclean ;
also everything that she sits on shall be unclean .
*
Whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
And whoever touches anything that she sat on shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
*
If anything is on her bed or on anything on which she sits ,
when he touches it ,
he shall be unclean until evening .
*
And if any man lies with her at all ,
so that her impurity is on him ,
he shall be unclean seven days ;
and every bed on which he lies shall be unclean .
* "
If a woman has a discharge of blood for many days ,
other than at the time of her customary impurity ,
or if it runs beyond her usual time of impurity ,
all the days of her unclean discharge shall be as the days of her customary impurity .
She shall be unclean .
*
Every bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge shall be to her as the bed of her impurity ;
and whatever she sits on shall be unclean ,
as the uncleanness of her impurity .
*
Whoever touches those things shall be unclean ;
he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water ,
and be unclean until evening .
* "
But if she is cleansed of her discharge ,
then she shall count for herself seven days ,
and after that she shall be clean .
*
And on the eighth day she shall take for herself two turtledoves or two young pigeons ,
and bring them to the priest ,
to the door of the tabernacle of meeting .
*
Then the priest shall offer the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering ,
and the priest shall make atonement for her before the LORD for the discharge of her uncleanness .
* "
Thus you shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness ,
lest they die in their uncleanness when they defile My tabernacle that is among them .
*
This is the law for one who has a discharge ,
and for him who emits semen and is unclean thereby ,
*
and for her who is indisposed because of her customary impurity ,
and for one who has a discharge ,
either man or woman ,
and for him who lies with her who is unclean ."'
