Numbers 19:3-9 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

3. And you shall deliver it to Eleazar the priest, who, having led it out beyond the camp, shall immolate it in the sight of all.

4. And dipping his finger in its blood, he shall sprinkle it seven times, opposite the door of the tabernacle.

5. And he shall burn it, while all are watching, delivering into the flame, not only its skin and flesh, but also the blood and dung.

6. Likewise, cedar wood, and hyssop, and twice-dyed scarlet he shall cast into the flame, by which the cow is consumed.

7. And then finally, having washed his garments and his body, he shall enter into the camp, and he shall be deeply stained until evening.

8. Then he also who had burned it shall wash his garments and his body, and he shall be unclean until evening.

9. Then a clean man shall gather the ashes of the cow, and he shall pour them out beyond the camp, in a very pure place, so that they may be preserved for the multitude of the sons of Israel, and for the water of aspersion, because the cow was burned for sin.
