Numbers 5:1-3
New International Reader's Version
Making the Camp Pure
5 The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, 2 “Tell the Israelites that certain people must be sent away from the camp. Command them to send away anyone who has a skin disease. They must send away all those who have liquid waste coming from their bodies. And they must send away those who are ‘unclean’ because they have touched a dead body. 3 That applies to men and women alike. Send them out of the camp. They must not make their camp ‘unclean.’ That is where I live among them.”
