she lieth {[or sitteth]} 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 {But if} she is cleansed {be clean}
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.
