1 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

2 "Speak to the {Israelites}, and you shall say to them, '{Any man} when a fluid discharge occurs from his body, his fluid discharge [is] unclean.

3 And this becomes his uncleanness in his fluid discharge: [whether] his body secretes his fluid discharge or his body blocks his fluid discharge, it [is] his uncleanness.

4 Any bed upon which the person who discharges lies down becomes unclean, and any object upon which he sits becomes unclean.

5 And anyone who touches his bed must wash his garments and shall wash [himself] with water, and he shall be unclean until evening.
