Leviticus 15

1 The Lord told Moses and Aaron,

And the LORD spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying:

2 “Tell the Israelites, When any man has a discharge from his genitals, the discharge is unclean.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When any man hath an issue out of his flesh, his issue is unclean.

3 The uncleanness comes from his discharge, whether his body allows it to flow out or blocks it. It makes him unclean.

And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether his flesh run with his issue, or his flesh be stopped from his issue, it is his uncleanness.

4 Any bed the man with the discharge lies on will be unclean, and anything he sits on will be unclean.

Every bed whereon he that hath the issue lieth shall be unclean; and every thing whereon he sitteth shall be unclean.

5 Anyone who touches his bed has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

6 Anyone who sits on whatever the man was sitting on has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And he that sitteth on any thing whereon he that hath the issue sat shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

7 Anyone who touches the man's body has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

8 If the man with the discharge spits on anyone who is clean, they have to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is clean, then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

9 Whatever the man sits on when he's riding will be unclean.

And what saddle soever he that hath the issue rideth upon shall be unclean.

10 Anyone who touches whatever was under him will be unclean until the evening. Anyone who picks these things up has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And whosoever toucheth any thing that was under him shall be unclean until the even; and he that beareth those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

11 If the man with the discharge touches anyone without washing his hands with water first, the person who was touched has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And whomsoever he that hath the issue toucheth, without having rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

12 Any clay item touched by the man must be broken, and any wooden item must be washed with water.

And the earthen vessel, which he that hath the issue toucheth, shall be broken; and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.

13 Once the discharge has healed, the man must allocate seven days for his cleaning process, wash his clothes, and wash himself in fresh water, and he shall be clean.

And when he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue, then he shall number to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes; and he shall bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean.

14 On the eighth day he must take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, come before the Lord at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the priest.

And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door of the tent of meeting, and give them unto the priest.

15 The priest will sacrifice them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. This is how the priest will make the man right before the Lord because of his discharge.

And the priest shall offer them, the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD for his issue.

16 When a man has a release of semen, he must wash his whole body with water, and he will be unclean until the evening.

And if the flow of seed go out from a man, then he shall bathe all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.

17 Any clothing or leather that the release of semen falls on must be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until the evening.

And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the flow of seed, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even.

18 If a man sleeps with a woman and there is a release of semen, both of them must wash with water, and they will remain unclean until the evening.

The woman also with whom a man shall lie carnally, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the even.

19 When a woman has a discharge of blood from her body, she will be unclean because of her period for seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean until the evening.

And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall be in her impurity seven days; and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.

20 Anything she lies or sits on during her period will be unclean,

And every thing that she lieth upon in her impurity shall be unclean; every thing also that she sitteth upon shall be unclean.

21 and anyone who touches her bed must wash their clothes and wash themselves with water, and will be unclean until the evening.

And whosoever toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

22 Anyone who touches what she was sitting on has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sitteth upon shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

23 Whether it's a bed or something she was sitting on, anyone who touches it will be unclean until the evening.

And if he be on the bed, or on any thing whereon she sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the even.

24 If a man sleeps with her and the blood from her period touches him, he will be unclean for seven days, and any bed he lies on will be unclean.

And if any man lie with her, and her impurity be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean.

25 When a woman has a discharge of blood for several days when it's not the time for her period, or if it continues past her period, she will be unclean for the whole time she is bleeding, not just for the days of her period.

And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days not in the time of her impurity, or if she have an issue beyond the time of her impurity; all the days of the issue of her uncleanness she shall be as in the days of her impurity: she is unclean.

26 Any bed she lies on or anything she sits on while she has her discharge will be unclean, just as her bed is during her period.

Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue shall be unto her as the bed of her impurity; and every thing whereon she sitteth shall be unclean, as the uncleanness of her impurity.

27 Anyone who touches them has to wash their clothes, and wash themselves with water, and they will be unclean until the evening.

And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

28 Once the woman's discharge has healed, she must allocate seven days for her cleaning process, wash her clothes, and wash herself in fresh water, and she shall be clean.

But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall number to herself seven days, and after that she shall be clean.

29 On the eighth day she must take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, come before the Lord at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the priest.

And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tent of meeting.

30 The priest will sacrifice them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. This is how the priest will make her right before the Lord because of her discharge.

And the priest shall offer the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her before the LORD for the issue of her uncleanness.

31 This is how you must stop the Israelites from becoming ceremonially unclean, so that they don't die by making my Tabernacle unclean, the place where I live with them.

Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile My tabernacle that is in the midst of them.

32 These are the regulations regarding a man who has a discharge, a man who has a release of semen that makes him unclean,

This is the law of him that hath an issue, and of him from whom the flow of seed goeth out, so that he is unclean thereby;

33 a woman during her period, any male or female who has a discharge, and a man who sleeps with an unclean woman.”

and of her that is sick with her impurity, and of them that have an issue, whether it be a man, or a woman; and of him that lieth with her that is unclean.
