Leviticus 15:1–15

Instructions About Bodily Discharges

15 Thena Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, “Speak to the Israelites,b and you shall say to them, ‘Any manc when a fluid discharge occursd from his body, his fluid discharge is unclean. And this becomes his uncleanness in his fluid discharge: whether his body secretes his fluid discharge or his body blocks his fluid discharge, it is his uncleanness. Any bed upon which the person who discharges lies down becomes unclean, and any object upon which he sits becomes unclean. And anyone who touches his bed must wash his garments and shall washe himselff with water, and he shall be unclean until evening. And the person who sits on the object upon which the person who discharges has sat must wash his garments, and he shall washg himselfh with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening. And the person who touches the body of the person who discharges must wash his garments, and he shall washi himselfj with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening. And if the person who discharges spits on one who isk clean, thenl that onem shall wash his garments, and he shall wash himselfn with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening. And any saddle upon which the person who discharges rides becomes unclean. 10 And any person who touches anything that happened to be under him becomes unclean until the evening, and the person who carries them must wash his garments, and he shall wash himselfo with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening. 11 And anyone whom the person who discharges might touch withoutp rinsing off his hands with water shall wash his garments, and he shall wash himselfq with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening. 12 Butr a clay vessel that the person who discharges touches must be broken, and any wood objects must be rinsed with water.

13 “ ‘And when the person who discharges becomes clean from his body fluid discharge, he shall countt for himself seven days for his cleansing; thenu he shall wash his garments, and he shall wash his body with freshv water, and he shall be clean. 14 Thenw on the eighth day he shall take for himself two turtledoves or two young doves,x and he shall come beforey Yahweh at the tent of assembly’s entrance, and he shall give them to the priest. 15 And the priest shall sacrificez one as a sin offering and the othera as a burnt offering, and so the priest shall make atonement for him beforeb Yahweh from his body fluid discharge.
