  1. And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, Lev 15:2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shall say to them, Whatever man shall have an issue out of his body, his issue is unclean. Lev 15:3 And this is the law of his uncleanness; whoever has a gonorrhoea out of his body, this is his uncleanness in him by reason of the issue, by which his body is affected through the issue: all the days of the issue of his body, by which his body is affected through the issue, there is his uncleanness. Lev 15:4 Every bed on which he that has the issue shall happen to lie, is unclean; and every seat on which he that has the issue may happen to sit, shall be unclean. Lev 15:5 And the man who shall touch his bed, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean till evening. Lev 15:6 And whosoever sits on the every seat on which he that has the issue may have sat, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:7 And he that touches the skin of him that has the issue, shall wash his garments and bathe himself in water and shall be unclean till evening. Lev 15:8 And if he that has the issue should spit upon one that is clean, that person shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening. Lev 15:9 And every ass's saddle, on which the man with the issue shall have mounted, shall be unclean till evening. Lev 15:10 And every one that touches whatsoever shall have been under him shall be unclean until evening; and he that takes them up shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water; and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:11 And whomsoever he that has the issue shall touch, if he have not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:12 And the earthen vessel which he that has the issue shall happen to touch, shall be broken; and a wooden vessel shall be washed with water, and shall be clean. Lev 15:13 And if he that has the issue should be cleansed of his issue, then shall he number to himself seven days for his purification, and he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be clean. Lev 15:14 And on the eighth day he shall take to himself two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, and he shall bring them before the Lord to the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall give them to the priest. Lev 15:15 And the priest shall offer them one for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole-burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord for his issue. Lev 15:16 And the man whose seed of copulation shall happen to go forth from him, shall then wash his whole body, and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:17 And every garment, and every skin on which there shall be the seed of copulation shall both be washed with water, and be unclean until evening. Lev 15:18 And a woman, if a man shall lie with her with seed of copulation - they shall both bathe themselves in water and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:19 And the woman whosoever shall have an issue of blood, when her issue shall be in her body, shall be seven days in her separation; every one that touches her shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:20 And every thing whereon she shall lie in her separation, shall be unclean; and whatever she shall sit upon, shall be unclean. Lev 15:21 And whosoever shall touch her bed shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:22 And every one that touches any vessel on which she shall sit, shall wash his garments and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Lev 15:23 And whether it be while she is on her bed, or on a seat which she may happen to sit upon when he touches her, he shall be unclean till evening. Lev 15:24 And if anyone shall lie with her, and her uncleanness be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed on which he shall have lain shall be unclean. Lev 15:25 And if a woman have an issue of blood many days, not in the time of her separation; if the blood should also flow after her separation, all the days of the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean. Lev 15:26 And every bed on which she shall lie all the days of her flux shall be to her as the bed of her separation, and every seat whereon she shall sit shalt be unclean according to the uncleanness of her separation. Lev 15:27 Every one that touches it shall be unclean; and he shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean till evening. Lev 15:28 But if she shall be cleansed from her flux, then she shall number to herself seven days, and afterwards she shall be esteemed clean. Lev 15:29 And on the eighth day she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, and shall bring them to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of witness. Lev 15:30 And the priest shall offer one for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole-burnt-offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her before the Lord for her unclean flux. Lev 15:31 And ye shall cause the children of Israel to beware of their uncleannesses; so they shall not die for their uncleanness, in polluting my tabernacle that is among them. Lev 15:32 This is the law of the man who has an issue, and if one discharge seed of copulation, so that he should be polluted by it. Lev 15:33 And this is the law for her that has the issue of blood in her separation, and as to the person who has an issue of seed, in his issue; it is a law for the male and the female, and for the man who shall have lain with her that is set apart.
