Leviticus 22:2-7
2“TellH1696H413 AaronH175H413 and his sonsH1121 to treat with respectH5144 the sacred offeringsH6944 that the IsraelitesH1121H3478 have consecrated to MeH6942, so that they do notH3808 profaneH2490 My holyH6944 nameH8034. IH589 am the LORDH3068.
3TellH559 themH413 that for the generations to comeH1755, if anyH3605 of their descendantsH2233H413 in a state of uncleannessH2932H5921 approachesH7126 the sacred offeringsH6944 thatH834 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 consecrateH6942 to the LORDH3068, thatH1931 personH5315 must be cut offH3772 from My presenceH6440. IH589 am the LORDH3068.
4If a descendantH2233H376 of AaronH175H1931 has a skin diseaseH68791 orH176 a dischargeH2100, he may not eatH398H3808 the sacred offeringsH6944 untilH5704 he is cleanH2891. Whoever touchesH5060 anythingH3605 defiledH2931 by a corpseH5315 orH176 by a manH376 whoH834 hasH3318 an emissionH7902 of semenH2233, 5orH176 whoeverH376 touchesH5060 aH3605 crawling creatureH8318 orH176 a personH120 thatH834 makes him uncleanH2930, whateverH3605 the uncleanness may beH2932— 6the manH5315 whoH834 touchesH5060 any of these will remain uncleanH2930 untilH5704 eveningH6153. He must notH3808 eatH398 fromH4480 the sacred offeringsH6944 unlessH3588H518 he has bathedH7364 himselfH1320 with waterH4325.
7When the sunH8121 has setH935, he will become cleanH2891, and thenH310 he may eatH398 fromH4480 the sacred offeringsH6944, forH3588 theyH1931 are his foodH3899.
