Leviticus 15
1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me and Aaron,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying:
2 “Tell this to the Israelis: When an infected discharge comes out of a man’s sexual organs [EUP], that fluid should not be touched.
Speak unto the sons of Israel, and ye shall say unto them, —When, any man whatsoever, hath a flowing from his flesh, his flux, is, unclean.
3 Whether that fluid is blocked or continues to drip, it causes him to be someone who should not be touched.
And, this shall be his uncleanness in his flux, —whether his flesh is running with his flux or his flesh hath closed from his flux, his uncleanness, it is.
4 “And any bed that such a man lies on should not be touched, and anything that he sits on should not be touched.
All the bed whereon he that hath the flux lieth, shall be unclean, —and, every piece of furniture whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean.
5 Anyone who touches that person’s bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening.
6 Anyone who sits on something that man has sat on must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, he that sitteth on that whereon he that hath the flux hath sat, shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
7 “Anyone who touches such a man must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the flux, shall wash his clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening,
8 “If such a man spits on someone else, that person who is spit upon should not be touched. He must wash his clothes, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, when he that hath a flux spitteth on him that is clean, then shall he wash his clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening.
9 “Everything that a man who has such a discharge of fluid sits on while he is riding [a horse or a donkey] should not be touched,
And, every saddle whereon he that hath the flux rideth, shall be unclean.
10 and anyone who touches the seat or saddle that he was sitting on also should not be touched until that evening. And anyone who picks up the seat or saddle must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, whosoever toucheth anything that was under him shall be unclean until the evening; and, he that carrieth them shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
11 Anyone whom the man with such a discharge of fluid from his body touches without first rinsing his hands in water must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, whomsoever he that hath the flux toucheth, not having rinsed, his hands in water, then shall he wash his clothes, and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening,
12 “If such a man touches a clay pot, that pot must be broken into pieces. Anything made from wood that he touches must be rinsed in water.
And the earthen vessel which he that hath the flux toucheth shall be broken in pieces, —and, every vessel of wood, shall be rinsed in water.
13 “If such a man is healed from his flow of fluid, he must wait for seven days. Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water from a spring. Then he will be able to be with others.
And when he that hath the flux becometh clean from his flux, then shall he number to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, —and bathe his flesh in living water, and be clean.
14 On the eighth/next day, he must take two doves or two young pigeons and come in front of Yahweh at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and give them to the priest.
And, on the eighth day, he shall take for himself two turtle doves or two young pigeons, —and come in before Yahweh, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, and give them to the priest;
15 The priest will sacrifice them. One will be an offering for the man to become acceptable to God, and the other one will be completely burned [on the altar]. As a result of the priest doing that, the man will be forgiven for having sinned.
and the priest shall offer them, one as a sin-bearer and the other as an ascending-sacrifice, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him, before Yahweh, because of his flux.
16 “Then semen accidentally flows from a man’s sexual organs [EUP], he must bathe his whole body, and no one should touch him until that evening.
And, when there goeth out from, any man, an outflow of seed, then shall he bathe all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the evening.
17 Any clothing or leather that has semen on it must be washed, and no one should touch it until that evening.
And, in the case of any garment or any skin whereupon there shall come to be an outflow of seed, then shall it be washed in water, and be unclean until the evening.
18 When a man has sex with a woman and some semen spills, both of them must bathe, and no one should touch them until that evening.
Also, a woman with whom man lieth carnally, then shall they bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
19 “Then a woman has her monthly menstrual period, no one should touch her for seven days. If anyone touches her [during that time], no one should touch the person who touched her until that evening.
And, when a, woman, hath a flow, and her flow in her flesh is, blood, seven days, shall she continue in her removal, and whosoever toucheth her, shall be unclean until the evening;
20 No one should touch anything that she lies on or sits on during that time.
and, whatsoever she lieth upon in her removal, shall be unclean, —and, whatsoever she sitteth upon, shall be unclean;
21 Anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
and whosoever toucheth her bed, shall wash his clothes and bathe in water and be unclean until the evening;
22 Anyone who touches something that she has been sitting on, a bed or anything else, must wash his clothes, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
and, whosoever toucheth any thing whereon she sitteth shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening;
and, whether, on her bed, it is, or on any thing whereon she hath been sitting, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the evening;
24 “If a man has sex with a woman [during that time] and some of the menstrual blood touches him, no one should touch him for seven days, and no one should touch the bed that he lies on.
and if man shall even lie with her, and her cause for removal be upon him, then shall he be unclean seven days, —and, all the bed whereon he shall lie, shall be unclean.
25 “Then a woman has a vaginal discharge of blood for (many days/a long time), which is not her monthly flow of blood, or if her flow of blood continues after her monthly flow ends, no one should touch her until it stops.
And when any woman’s, flow of blood lasteth many day, outside the time of her removal, or when it floweth beyond her removal, all the days of her unclean flow, shall she be as in the days of her removal—unclean, she is.
26 And no one should touch the bed that she lies on or anything that she sits on while that flow of blood continues, just like during her monthly menstrual period.
All the bed whereon she lieth during all the days of her flow, like her bed in her removal, shall be to her, —and, every thing whereon she sitteth, shall be, unclean, like the uncleanness in her removal;
27 Anyone who touches those things should not touch anyone else; he must wash his clothes and bathe, and he should not touch anyone else until that evening.
and whosoever toucheth them, shall be unclean, —and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
28 “After a woman’s monthly menstrual flow ends, she must wait seven days before she touches anyone.
But, if she be clean from her flow, then shall she count to herself seven days and afterwards, shall she count herself clean.
29 On the eighth/next day, she must take two doves or two pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
And, on the eighth day, shall she take to herself two turtle doves, or two young pigeons, —and bring them in unto the priest, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting;
30 The priest will sacrifice one of them to be an offering to enable her to become acceptable to Yahweh again, and completely burn the other one [on the altar]. By doing that he will cause me, Yahweh, to forgive her for having sinned [DOU].
and the priest shall offer the one as a sin-bearer, and the other as an ascending-sacrifice, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over her, before Yahweh, because of her unclean flow.
31 “You must warn the Israeli people not to do things that (defile them/cause them to be unacceptable to me). If they become (unacceptable to me/defiled), they will cause my Sacred Tent which is among them to become an unacceptable place to worship me, and as a result they will die.”
Thus shall ye warn the sons of Israel from their uncleanness, And they shall not die in their uncleanness, By reason of their making unclean my habitation which is in their midst.
32 “Those are the regulations for a man who has a fluid that flows from his sexual organs or who should not be touched because some of his semen spills out while having sex [with a woman],
This, is the law—Of him that hath a flux, —And of him from whom goeth an outflow of seed, making unclean thereby;
33 and for any woman during her monthly menstrual period, and for any man who has sex with a woman during her menstrual period.”
And of her that is unwell with her cause for removal, And of him whose flux floweth, For the male, and for the female, —And for a man who lieth with her that is unclean.
