Leviticus15

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

Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When any man has a running discharge out of his flesh, because of his discharge he is unclean.

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

Every bed, on which he lies that has the discharge, is unclean: and everything, on which he sits, shall be unclean.

And whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And he that sits on anything on which he sat that has the discharge shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And he that touches the flesh of him that has the discharge shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And if he that has the discharge spit upon him that is clean; then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And whatever saddle he rides upon that has the discharge shall be unclean.

And whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until evening: and he that bears any of those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And whomsoever he touches that has the discharge, and has not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And the vessel of earth, that he touches which has the discharge, shall be broken: and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.

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

And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and come before the LORD to the door of the tent of meeting, and give them to the priest:

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

And if any man’s seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until evening.

And every garment, and every skin, on which is the seed of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until evening.

The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of copulation, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until evening.

And if a woman have a discharge, and her discharge in her flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whoever touches her shall be unclean until evening.

And everything that she lies upon in her separation shall be unclean: everything also that she sits upon shall be unclean.

And whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And whoever touches anything that she sat upon shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

And if it be on her bed, or on anything on which she sits, when he touches it, he shall be unclean until evening.

And if any man lie with her at all, and her flowers be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and all the bed on which he lies shall be unclean.

And if a woman have a discharge of her blood many days out of the time of her separation, or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days of the discharge of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean.

Every bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge shall be to her as the bed of her separation: and whatever she sits upon shall be unclean, as the uncleanness of her separation.

And whoever touches those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.

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

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

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

Thus shall you separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is among them.

This is the law of him that has a discharge, and of him whose seed goes from him, and is defiled with it;

And of her that is sick of her flowers, and of him that has a discharge, of the man, and of the woman, and of him that lies with her that is unclean.
