The Uncleanness of Men

(Deuteronomy 23:9-14)

1And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man have a flux from his flesh, because of his flux he is unclean. 3And this shall be his uncleanness in his flux: whether his flesh run with his flux, or his flesh be closed from his flux, it is his uncleanness. 4Every bed whereon he lieth that hath the flux shall be unclean; and every object on which he sitteth shall be unclean. 5And whoever toucheth his bed shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 6And he that sitteth on any object whereon he sat that hath the flux shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 7And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the flux shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 8And if he that hath the flux spit upon him that is clean, then he shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 9And what carriage soever he rideth upon that hath the flux shall be unclean. 10And whoever toucheth anything that was under him shall be unclean until the even; and he that carrieth them shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 11And whomsoever he toucheth who hath the flux and hath not rinsed his hands in water -- he shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 12And the vessel of earth that he toucheth who hath the flux shall be broken; and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.

The Cleansing of Men

13And when he that hath a flux is clean of his flux, then he shall count seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and he shall be clean. 14And on the eighth day he shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, and come before Jehovah unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, and give them unto the priest. 15And the priest shall offer them, one as a sin-offering, and one as a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him before Jehovah for his flux.

16And if any man's seed of copulation pass from him, then he shall bathe his whole flesh in water, and be unclean until the even. 17And every garment, and every skin, whereon the seed of copulation shall be, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even. 18And a woman with whom a man lieth with seed of copulation -- they shall bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.

The Uncleanness of Women

19And if a woman have a flux, and her flux in her flesh be blood, she shall be seven days in her separation, and whoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even. 20And everything that she lieth upon in her separation shall be unclean; and everything that she sitteth upon shall be unclean. 21And whoever toucheth her bed shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 22And whoever toucheth any object that she sat upon shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even. 23And if it be on the bed, or on anything whereon she sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the even. 24And if a man lie with her at all, and the uncleanness of her separation come upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean.

25And if a woman have her flux of blood many days out of the time of her separation, or if she have the flux beyond the time of her separation, all the days of the flux of her uncleanness shall she be as [in] the days of her separation: she is unclean. 26Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her flux shall be unto her as the bed of her separation; and every object on which she sitteth shall be unclean, according to the uncleanness of her separation. 27And whoever toucheth them shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.

The Cleansing of Women

28And if she be cleansed of her flux then she shall count seven days, and after that she shall be clean. 29And on the eighth day she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting. 30And the priest shall offer the one as a sin-offering, and the other as a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her before Jehovah for the flux of her uncleanness.

31And ye shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness, that they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is in their midst. 32This is the law for him that hath a flux, and for the one whose seed of copulation goeth from him, and who is defiled therewith: 33and for a woman who is sick in her separation, and for him that hath his flux; for the man and for the woman, and for him that lieth with her that is unclean.
