Numbers 19:13-15

International Standard Version

¹³ Anyone who comes in contact with a dead person (that is, with the corpse^[a] of a human being^[b] who has died), but who does not purify himself, defiles the Lord’s tent. That person is to be eliminated from Israel, because the water of impurity wasn’t sprinkled on him. He remains unclean and his uncleanness will remain with him.

¹⁴ “This is the procedure to follow^[c] when a man dies in his tent: Everyone who enters the tent and everyone in it is to remain unclean for seven days. ¹⁵ Every open vessel that has no covering fastened around it is to be considered unclean.
