17 And for an unclean person they shall take some of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall be put there in a vessel:
18 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the vessels, on the persons who were there, and on him who touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave:
19 And the clean person shall sprinkle it on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify himself, wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.
20 But the man who shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water of purification has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean.
21 And it shall be a perpetual statute to them, that he who sprinkles the water of purification shall wash his clothes; and he who touches the water of purification shall be unclean until evening.
22 And whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul who touches it shall be unclean until evening.
