Leviticus 22:5-7

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁵ Or whoever touches any dead creeping thing by which he may be made unclean, or a man from whom he may acquire uncleanness, whatever it may be,^(A)

⁶ The priest who has touched any such thing shall be unclean until evening and shall not eat of the holy things unless he has bathed with water.^(B)

⁷ When the sun is down, he shall be clean, and afterward may eat of the holy things, for they are his food.
