Numbers 19:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁵ Any pot in the tent that does not have a lid will not be clean.

¹⁶ Also, a person might have killed someone with a sword out in the country. Or someone may have died because he was old or ill. Anyone who touches a dead body in the country will become unclean for seven days. Also if they touch a human bone, or a grave, that person will be unclean for seven days.

¹⁷ Then for the person who is not clean, you must take some of the ashes of the young red cow. That is the cow to make people clean. You must put these ashes into a pot and you must mix them with water from a river.
