And now slay every male among the little ones, and slay every woman that hath known man by lying with him,

18 And all the little one[s] among the women who not they have known lying of a male preserve alive for yourselves.

but all the children among the women that have not known lying with a man, keep alive for yourselves.

everything that passeth through the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean; only it shall be purified with the water of separation; and everything that cannot pass through the fire ye shall make go through the water.

24 And you will wash clothes your on the day seventh and you will be pure and after you will come to the camp.
