Leviticus 15

1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872 and to AaronH175, sayingH559, 2SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, When any manH376 hath an issue out of his fleshH1320, because of his issue he is uncleanH2931. 3And this shall beH1961 his uncleannessH2932 in his issue: whether his fleshH1320 run with his issue, or his fleshH1320 beH1961 stopped from his issue, it is his uncleannessH2932. 4Every bedH4904 whereon he that hath the issue lieth shall be uncleanH2930; and everythingH3605 whereon he sitteth shall be uncleanH2930. 5And whosoever toucheth his bedH4904 shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 6And he that sitteth on anything whereon he that hath the issue satH3427 shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 7And he that toucheth the fleshH1320 of him that hath the issue shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 8And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is cleanH2889, then he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 9And what saddle soever he that hath the issue rideth upon shall be uncleanH2930. 10And whosoever toucheth anything that wasH1961 under him shall beH1961 uncleanH2930 until the even: and he that beareth those things shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and beH1961 uncleanH2930 until the even. 11And whomsoever he that hath the issue toucheth, without having rinsed his handsH3027 in waterH4325, he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 12And the earthen vesselH3627, which he that hath the issue toucheth, shall be brokenH7665; and every vesselH3627 of woodH6086 shall be rinsed in waterH4325.

13And when he that hath an issue is cleansedH2891 of his issue, then he shall number to himself sevenH7651 daysH3117 for his cleansing, and washH3526 his clothesH899; and he shall batheH7364 his fleshH1320 in running waterH4325, and shall be cleanH2891. 14And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he shall takeH3947 to him twoH8147 turtle-doves, or twoH8147 youngH1121 pigeons, and comeH935 before Jehovah unto the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150, and giveH5414 them unto the priestH3548: 15and the priestH3548 shall offerH6213 them, the oneH259 for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering; and the priestH3548 shall makeH6213 atonementH3722 for him before Jehovah for his issue.

16And if any man’sH376 seedH2233 of copulation goH3318 out from him, then he shall batheH7364 all his fleshH1320 in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 17And every garmentH899, and every skinH5785, whereon is the seedH2233 of copulation, shall beH1961 washedH3526 with waterH4325, and beH1961 uncleanH2930 until the even. 18The womanH802 also with whom a manH376 shall lieH7901 with seedH2233 of copulation, they shall both batheH7364 themselves in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even.

19And if a womanH802 have an issue, and her issue in her fleshH1320 beH1961 bloodH1818, she shall beH1961 in her impurityH5079 sevenH7651 daysH3117: and whosoever toucheth her shall beH1961 uncleanH2930 until the even. 20And everythingH3605 that she lieth upon in her impurityH5079 shall be uncleanH2930: everythingH3605 also that she sitteth upon shall be uncleanH2930. 21And whosoever toucheth her bedH4904 shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 22And whosoever toucheth anything that she sitteth upon shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 23And if it be on the bedH4904, or on anything whereon she sitteth, whenH834 he toucheth it, he shall be uncleanH2930 until the even. 24And if any manH376 lieH7901 with her, and her impurityH5079 beH1961 upon him, he shall beH1961 uncleanH2930 sevenH7651 daysH3117; and every bedH4904 whereon he lieth shall beH1961 uncleanH2930.

25And if a womanH802 have an issue of her bloodH1818 manyH7227 daysH3117 not in the timeH6256 of her impurityH5079, or if she have an issue beyond the timeH6256 of her impurityH5079; all the daysH3117 of the issue of her uncleanness she shall beH1961 as in the daysH3117 of her impurityH5079: she is uncleanH2931. 26Every bedH4904 whereon she lieth all the daysH3117 of her issue shall beH1961 unto her as the bedH4904 of her impurityH5079: and everythingH3605 whereon she sitteth shall beH1961 uncleanH2931, as the uncleanness of her impurityH5079. 27And whosoever toucheth those things shall be uncleanH2930, and shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325, and be uncleanH2930 until the even. 28But if she be cleansedH2891 of her issue, then she shall number to herself sevenH7651 daysH3117, and after that she shall be cleanH2891. 29And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 she shall takeH3947 unto her twoH8147 turtle-doves, or twoH8147 youngH1121 pigeons, and bringH935 them unto the priestH3548, to the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 30And the priestH3548 shall offerH6213 the oneH259 for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering; and the priestH3548 shall makeH6213 atonementH3722 for her before Jehovah for the issue of her uncleannessH2932.

31Thus shall ye separate the children of IsraelH3478 from their uncleannessH2932, that they dieH4191 not in their uncleannessH2932, whenH834 they defileH2930 my tabernacleH4908 that is in the midstH8432 of them.

32This is the lawH8451 of him that hath an issue, and of him whose seedH2233 of copulation goeth from him, so that he is uncleanH2930 thereby; 33and of her that is sick with her impurityH5079, and of him that hath an issue, of the manH376, and of the woman, and of him that lieth with her that is uncleanH2931.
