Numbers 19:2-9

2“ThisH2088 is the statuteH2708 of the lawH8451 whichH834 the LordH3068 has commandedH6680, sayingH559, ‘SpeakH1696 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 that they bringH3947 you an 1unblemishedH8549 redH122 heiferH6499 in whichH834 is noH369 defectH4140 and 2on whichH834 a yokeH5923 has neverH3808 3been placedH5927.

3You shall giveH5414 it to 4EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and it shall 5be broughtH3318 outsideH413H4480H2351 the campH4264 and be slaughteredH7819 in his presenceH6440.

4Next EleazarH499 the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 someH4480 of its bloodH1818 with his fingerH676 and 6sprinkleH5137 someH4480 of its bloodH1818 towardH413 the frontH6440 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150 sevenH7651 timesH6471.

5Then the heiferH6499 shall be burnedH8313 in his sightH5869; 7its hideH5785 and its fleshH1320 and its bloodH1818, with its refuseH6569, shall be burnedH8313.

6The priestH3548 shall takeH3947 8cedarH730 woodH6086 and hyssopH231 and scarletH8144 material and castH7993 it into the midstH8432 of the 9burningH8316 heiferH6499.

7The priestH3548 10shall then washH3526 his clothesH899 and batheH7364 his 11bodyH1320 in waterH4325, and afterwardH310 comeH935 into the campH4264, but the priestH3548 shall be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 eveningH6153.

8The one who burnsH8313 it shall also washH3526 his clothesH899 in waterH4325 and batheH7364 his 12bodyH1320 in waterH4325, and shall be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 eveningH6153.

9Now a manH376 who is cleanH2889 shall gatherH622 up the ashesH665 of the heiferH6499 and depositH5117 them outsideH4480H2351 the campH4264 in a cleanH2889 placeH4725, and 13the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall keepH4931 it as 14waterH4325 to remove impurityH5079; it is 15purificationH2403 from sinH2403.
