‏ Numbers 19:11-16

11‘ aThe one who touches the corpse of any ▼
▼ Lit soul of man
person shall be unclean for seven days.
12‘That one shall cpurify himself from uncleanness with ▼
▼ Lit it
the water on the third day and on the seventh day, and then he will be clean; but if he does not purify himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not be clean.
13‘ eAnyone who touches a corpse, the ▼
▼ Lit soul
body of a man who has died, and does not purify himself, gdefiles the ▼
▼ Lit dwelling place
tabernacle of the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from Israel. Because the water for impurity was not ▼
▼ Or thrown
,
jsprinkled on him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is still on him.

14‘This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent and everyone who is in the tent shall be unclean for seven days. 15‘Every open vessel, which has no covering ▼
▼ Lit cord
tied down on it, shall be unclean.
16‘ lAlso, anyone who in the open field touches one who has been slain with a sword or who has died naturally, or a human bone or a grave, shall be unclean for seven days.
