Numbers 19:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ “So you must use the ashes from the burnt sin [or purification; Lev. 4:3] offering to make that person clean [^Cin a ritual sense] again. Pour ·fresh [running; ^Lliving] water over the ashes into a jar. ¹⁸ A clean person must take a hyssop branch and dip it into the water, and then he must sprinkle it over the tent and all its objects. He must also sprinkle the people who were there, as well as anyone who touched a bone, or the body of someone who was killed, or a dead person, or a grave. ¹⁹ The person who is clean must sprinkle this water on the unclean people on the third day and on the seventh day. On the seventh day they will ·become clean [be purified]. They must wash their clothes and take a bath, and they will be clean that evening.
