Thus shall you separate the children of Israel
from
their uncleanness;
that
they die not in their uncleanness,
when
they defile my tabernacle that is among them.
32
This is the law of him who has an issue,
and
of him whose seed goes from him,
and
is defiled therewith.
33
And of her that is sick of her flowers,
and
of him who has an issue,
of
the man, and of the woman,
and
of him who lies with her that is unclean.
