Book 04 : NUMBERS - Chapter 019
019:001
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
019:002
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
019:003
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
019:004
And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her
flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn
019:005
And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet,
and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer
019:006
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
019:007
And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and
bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even
019:008
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
019:009
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
019:010
He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean
seven days
019:011
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
019:012
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
019:013
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
019:014
And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it,
is unclean
019:015
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
019:016
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
019:017
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
019:018
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
019:019
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
019:020
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
019:021
And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean;
and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even
