Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁵ And they shall go near to no dead person to defile themselves, except for father or for mother, for son or for daughter, for brother or for sister who has had no husband; for them they may defile themselves.^(A)

²⁶ And after he is cleansed [from the defilement of a dead body] they shall reckon to him seven days more before returning to the temple.

²⁷ And on the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, says the Lord God.
