and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the
altar. And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat
shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water,
and afterward come into the camp. And the bullock for
the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering,
whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy
place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they
shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and
their dung. And he that burneth them shall
wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water,
and afterward he shall come into the camp."

shall wash his clothes,
and he shall bathe
his flesh in water, and afterward he
shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be
unclean until the even. And he that burneth her shall
wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water,
and shall be unclean until the even. And a man that is
clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay
them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall
be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel
for a water of separation: it is a purification for
sin. And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even:
and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto
the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute
for ever."
