Numbers 19:2-6

2“This is what the Lord’s teachings have commanded: Tell the Israelites to bring you a red cow that is perfect, with no defects. Also, it must never have worn a yoke.

3Give it to the priest Eleazar. It must be taken outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence.

4The priest Eleazar will take some of the blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting.

5Then the entire cow (the skin, meat, blood, and excrement) will be burned while he watches.

6The priest will take some cedar wood, a hyssop sprig, and some red yarn and throw them onto the burning cow.
