Leviticus 15

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

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

2 “Speak to the people of Israel, and say to them, 'When any man has an infected fluid that comes out of his body, he becomes 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 His uncleanness is due to this infected fluid. Whether his body flows with fluid or is stopped up, it is 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 Every bed on which he lies will be unclean, and everything on which he sits 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 Whoever touches his bed must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until 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 anything on which the man with the flow of infected fluid sat, that person must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until 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 body of the one who has a flow of infected fluid must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until 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 person who has such a flow of fluid spits on someone who is clean, then that person must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until 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 Any saddle which he who has a flow rides upon will be unclean.

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

10 Whoever touches anything that was under that person will be unclean until evening, and anyone who carries those things must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water; he will be unclean until 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 Whomever he who has such a flow touches without first having rinsed his hands in water, the person who was touched must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until 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 pot that the one with such a flow of fluid touches must be broken, and every container of wood must be rinsed in 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 When he who has a flow is cleansed from his flow, then he must count for himself seven days for his cleansing; then he must wash his clothes and bathe his body in running water. Then he will 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 doves or two young pigeons and come before Yahweh at the entrance to the tent of meeting; there he must give the birds 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 must offer them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, and the priest must make atonement for him before Yahweh for his flow.

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 If any man has an emission of semen, then he must bathe his whole body in water; he will be unclean until 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 Every garment or leather on which there is semen must be washed with water; it will be unclean until 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 woman and a man sleep together and there is a transfer of semen to her, they must both bathe themselves in water; they will be unclean until 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 menstruates, her impurity will continue for seven days, and whoever touches her will be unclean until 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 Everything she lies on during her period will be unclean; everything that she sits on will also 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 Whoever touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water; that person will be unclean until evening.

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

22 Whoever touches anything that she sits on must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water; that person will be unclean until 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 is on the bed or on anything on which she sits, if he touches it, that person will be unclean until 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 any man sleeps with her, and if her impure flow touches him, he will be unclean for seven days. Every bed on which he lies 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 If a woman has a flow of blood for many days that is not in the time of her menstruation, or if she has a flow beyond the time of her menstruation, during all the days of the flow of her uncleanness, she will be as if she were in the days of her period. She is unclean.

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 Every bed on which she lies all during her flow of blood will be to her just like the bed on which she lies during her menstruation, and everything on which she sits will be unclean, just like the uncleanness of her menstruation.

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 Whoever touches any of those things will be unclean; he must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and he will be unclean until 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 But if she is cleansed from her flow of blood, then she will count for herself seven days, and after that she will 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 will take to her two doves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

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 offer one bird as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, and he will make atonement for her before Yahweh for her unclean flow of blood.

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 separate the people of Israel from their uncleanness, so they will not die due to their uncleanness, by defiling my tabernacle, where I live among 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 for anyone who has a flow of fluid, for any man whose semen goes out of him and 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 for any woman who has a menstrual period, for anyone with a flow of fluid, whether male or female, and for any 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.
