1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying

2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them: The man who undergoes a flow of seed shall be unclean

3 And then he shall be judged subject to this fault, if a filthy fluid, at each moment, adheres to his flesh and gathers there

4 Every bed on which he sleeps shall be unclean, and every place where he sits

5 If any man has touched his couch, he shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening

6 If he will have sat where that man has sat, he shall also wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening

11 All whom such a one has touched, not having washed his hands before, shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening

12 If he has touched an earthen vessel, it shall be broken. But if it is a wooden vessel, it shall be washed with water

26 Every bed on which she sleeps, and every item on which she sits, shall be polluted

27 Whoever will have touched these shall wash his clothes, and having washed himself with water, he shall be unclean until evening

28 If the blood has stopped and has ceased to flow, she shall number seven days for her purification

29 and on the eighth day she shall offer for herself, to the priest, two turtledoves or two young pigeons, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony

30 And he shall offer one for sin, and the other as a holocaust, and he shall pray for her before the Lord, and for the flow of her uncleanness

31 Therefore, you shall teach the sons of Israel to be cautious of uncleanness, so that they may not die in their filth, when they will have polluted my tabernacle, which is among them

32 This is the law of him who undergoes a flow of seed, or who is polluted by sexual intercourse

33 and of her who is separated in the time of menstruation, or who has a continual flow of blood, and of the man who sleeps with her
