Numbers 19:12-14

New Century Version

¹² They must wash themselves with the cleansing water on the third day and on the seventh day; then they will be clean. But if they do not wash themselves on the third day and the seventh day, they cannot be clean. ¹³ If those who touch a dead person’s body stay unclean and go to the Lord’s Holy Tent, it becomes unclean; they must be cut off from Israel. If the cleansing water is not sprinkled on them, they are unclean and will stay unclean.

¹⁴ “This is the teaching about someone who dies in a tent: Anyone in the tent or anyone who enters it will be unclean for seven days.
