1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying:
2 This is the statute of the law which the Lord has commanded, saying: Tell the children of Israel that they will bring you a healthy red heifer, which has no blemish, and on which a yoke has never gone,
3 and you will give it to Eleazar the priest, and he will bring it outside the camp, and it will be slaughtered before him.
4 And Eleazar the priest will take from its blood with his finger and sprinkle some of its blood directly before the tent of meeting seven times.
5 Then it will be burned in his sight. Its hide and its flesh and its blood, with her dung, will be burned.
6 And the priest will take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet and throw it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
7 Then the priest will wash his clothes, and he will bathe his body in water, and afterward he will come into the camp, and the priest will be unclean until evening.
