Leviticus chapter .xv.
¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron
saying: Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them: every man that hath a running issue in his flesh, is unclean by the reason of his issue.
And hereby shall it be known when he is unclean. If his flesh run, or if his flesh congeal by the reason of his issue, then he is unclean.
Every couch whereon he lieth and every thing whereon he sitteth shall be unclean.
He that twicheth his couch, shall wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and be unclean until the even.
He that sitteth on that whereon he sat, shall wash his clothes and bathe himself with water and be unclean until the evening.
And he that twicheth his flesh shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean unto the evening.
If any such spit upon him that is clean, he must wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until even.
And whatsoever saddle that he rideth upon, shall be unclean.
And whosoever twicheth anything that was under him, shall be unclean unto the evening. And he that beareth any such things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water and be unclean unto the even,
and whosoever he twicheth (if he have not first washed his hands in water) must wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean unto the evening.
And if he twich a vessel of earth, it shall be broken: and all vessels of wood shall be rinsed in the water.
When he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue, let him number seven days after he is clean, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and then he is clean.
And the eighth day let him take two turtle doves or two young pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of witness, and give them unto the priest.
And the priest shall offer them: the one for a sinoffering, and the other for a burntoffering: and make an atonement for him before the LORD, as concerning his issue.
If any man's seed depart from him in his sleep, he shall wash his flesh in water and be unclean until evening.
And all the clothes or furs whereon such seed chanceth shall be washed with water and be unclean unto the evening.
And if a woman lie with such a one, they shall wash them selves with water and be unclean until even.
¶ When a woman's natural course of blood runneth, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever twicheth her shall be unclean unto the evening.
And all that she lieth upon as long as she is put apart shall be unclean.
And whosoever twicheth her couch shall wash his clothes and bathe himself with water and be unclean unto the evening.
And whosoever twicheth anything that she sat upon, shall wash his clothes and wash himself also in water, and be unclean unto the even:
so that whether he twich her couch or anything whereon she hath sitten, he shall be unclean unto the evening.
And if a man lie with her in the mean time, he shall be put apart as well as she and shall be unclean seven days, and all his couch wherein he sleepeth shall be unclean.
When a woman's blood runneth long time: whether out of the time of her natural course: as long as her uncleanness runneth, she shall be unclean after the manner as when she is put apart.
All her couches whereon she lieth (as long as her issue lasteth) shall be unto her as her couch when she is put apart. And whatsoever she sitteth upon, shall be unclean, as is her uncleanness when she is put apart.
And whosoever twicheth them, shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean unto evening.
And when she is cleansed of her issue, let her count her seven days, after that she is clean.
And the eighth day let her take two turtles or two young pigeons and bring them unto the priest unto the door of the tabernacle of witness.
And the priest shall offer the one for a sinoffering, and the other for a burntoffering: and so make an atonement for her before the LORD, as concerning her unclean issue.
Make the children of Israel to keep them selves from their uncleanness, that they die not in their uncleanness: when they have defiled my habitation that is among them.
This is the law of him that hath a running sore, and of him whose seed runneth from him in his sleep and is defiled therewith,
and of her that hath an issue of blood as long as she is put apart, and of whosoever hath a running sore whether it be man or woman, and of him that sleepeth with her that is unclean.
Praise the Everlasting Lord for His Faithful Word.
