Numbers 5:1-3

New Catholic Bible

Chapter 5

Purifying the Camp. ¹ The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ² “Command the people of Israel to expel from the camp every leper and everyone who has a discharge and everyone who is unclean because they touched the dead. ³ You will expel both men and women from the camp. You will put them out so that they do not make the camp unclean, for I dwell in their midst.”
