9 Then a man who is clean shall gather up athe ashes of the heifer, and store them outside the camp in a clean place; and they shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel bfor the water of purification; it is for purifying from sin.
10 And the one who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening. It shall be a statute forever to the children of Israel and to the stranger who dwells among them.
11 a‘He who touches the dead1 body of anyone shall be unclean seven days.
12 aHe shall purify himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day; then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not be clean.
13 Whoever touches the body of anyone who has died, and adoes not purify himself, bdefiles the tabernacle of the Lord. That person shall be cut off from Israel. He shall be unclean, because cthe water of purification was not sprinkled on him; dhis uncleanness is still on him.
14 ‘This is the law when a man dies in a tent: All who come into the tent and all who are in the tent shall be unclean seven days;
15 and every aopen vessel, which has no cover fastened on it, is unclean.
