1 Adonai spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Tell Aaron and his sons to separate themselves from the holy things of Bnei-Yisrael, which they consecrate to Me, so that they would not profane My holy Name. I am Adonai.
3 Tell them, if anyone of all your offspring throughout your generations approaches the holy things, which Bnei-Yisrael consecrate to Adonai, while in a state of uncleanness, that soul will be cut off from before Me. I am Adonai.
4 “None of the offspring of Aaron who has tza'arat or has a discharge shall eat of the holy things until he is clean. Whoever touches anything that is unclean by the dead or a man whose seed discharges from him
5 or who touches any creeping thing that may make him unclean or a person who is unclean—whatever his uncleanness—
6 the person who touches any such thing will be unclean until the evening, and is not to eat of the holy things, unless he has bathed his body in water.
