| 1 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην και ααρων λεγων | 1 Now the LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, |
| 2 αυτη η διαστολη του νομου οσα συνεταξεν κυριος λεγων λαλησον τοις υιοις ισραηλ και λαβετωσαν προς σε δαμαλιν πυρραν αμωμον ητις ουκ εχει εν αυτη μωμον και η ουκ επεβληθη επ' αυτην ζυγος | 2 "This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded: Tell the people of Israel to bring you a red heifer without defect, in which there is no blemish, and upon which a yoke has never come. |
| 3 και δωσεις αυτην προς ελεαζαρ τον ιερεα και εξαξουσιν αυτην εξω της παρεμβολης εις τοπον καθαρον και σφαξουσιν αυτην ενωπιον αυτου | 3 And you shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and she shall be taken outside the camp and slaughtered before him; |
| 4 και λημψεται ελεαζαρ απο του αιματος αυτης και ρανει απεναντι του προσωπου της σκηνης του μαρτυριου απο του αιματος αυτης επτακις | 4 and Eleazar the priest shall take some of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle some of her blood toward the front of the tent of meeting seven times. |
| 5 και κατακαυσουσιν αυτην εναντιον αυτου και το δερμα και τα κρεα αυτης και το αιμα αυτης συν τη κοπρω αυτης κατακαυθησεται | 5 And the heifer shall be burned in his sight; her skin, her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall be burned; |
| 6 και λημψεται ο ιερευς ξυλον κεδρινον και υσσωπον και κοκκινον και εμβαλουσιν εις μεσον του κατακαυματος της δαμαλεως | 6 and the priest shall take cedarwood and hyssop and scarlet stuff, and cast them into the midst of the burning of the heifer. |
| 7 και πλυνει τα ιματια αυτου ο ιερευς και λουσεται το σωμα αυτου υδατι και μετα ταυτα εισελευσεται εις την παρεμβολην και ακαθαρτος εσται ο ιερευς εως εσπερας | 7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and afterwards he shall come into the camp; and the priest shall be unclean until evening. |
| 8 και ο κατακαιων αυτην πλυνει τα ιματια αυτου και λουσεται το σωμα αυτου και ακαθαρτος εσται εως εσπερας | 8 He who burns the heifer shall wash his clothes in water and bathe his body in water, and shall be unclean until evening. |
| 9 και συναξει ανθρωπος καθαρος την σποδον της δαμαλεως και αποθησει εξω της παρεμβολης εις τοπον καθαρον και εσται τη συναγωγη υιων ισραηλ εις διατηρησιν υδωρ ραντισμου αγνισμα εστιν | 9 And a man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and deposit them outside the camp in a clean place; and they shall be kept for the congregation of the people of Israel for the water for impurity, for the removal of sin. |
| 10 και πλυνει τα ιματια ο συναγων την σποδιαν της δαμαλεως και ακαθαρτος εσται εως εσπερας και εσται τοις υιοις ισραηλ και τοις προσκειμενοις προσηλυτοις νομιμον αιωνιον | 10 And he who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening. And this shall be to the people of Israel, and to the stranger who sojourns among them, a perpetual statute. |
| 11 ο απτομενος του τεθνηκοτος πασης ψυχης ανθρωπου ακαθαρτος εσται επτα ημερας | 11 "He who touches the dead body of any person shall be unclean seven days; |
| 12 ουτος αγνισθησεται τη ημερα τη τριτη και τη ημερα τη εβδομη και καθαρος εσται εαν δε μη αφαγνισθη τη ημερα τη τριτη και τη ημερα τη εβδομη ου καθαρος εσται | 12 he shall cleanse himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day, and so be clean; but if he does not cleanse himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not become clean. |
| 13 πας ο απτομενος του τεθνηκοτος απο ψυχης ανθρωπου εαν αποθανη και μη αφαγνισθη την σκηνην κυριου εμιανεν εκτριβησεται η ψυχη εκεινη εξ ισραηλ οτι υδωρ ραντισμου ου περιερραντισθη επ' αυτον ακαθαρτος εστιν ετι η ακαθαρσια αυτου εν αυτω εστιν | 13 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of any man who has died, and does not cleanse himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not thrown upon him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is still on him. |
| 14 και ουτος ο νομος ανθρωπος εαν αποθανη εν οικια πας ο εισπορευομενος εις την οικιαν και οσα εστιν εν τη οικια ακαθαρτα εσται επτα ημερας | 14 "This is the law when a man dies in a tent: every one who comes into the tent, and every one who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days. |
| 15 και παν σκευος ανεωγμενον οσα ουχι δεσμον καταδεδεται επ' αυτω ακαθαρτα εστιν | 15 And every open vessel, which has no cover fastened upon it, is unclean. |
| 16 και πας ος εαν αψηται επι προσωπου του πεδιου τραυματιου η νεκρου η οστεου ανθρωπινου η μνηματος επτα ημερας ακαθαρτος εσται | 16 Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days. |
| 17 και λημψονται τω ακαθαρτω απο της σποδιας της κατακεκαυμενης του αγνισμου και εκχεουσιν επ' αυτην υδωρ ζων εις σκευος | 17 For the unclean they shall take some ashes of the burnt sin offering, and running water shall be added in a vessel; |
| 18 και λημψεται υσσωπον και βαψει εις το υδωρ ανηρ καθαρος και περιρρανει επι τον οικον και επι τα σκευη και επι τας ψυχας οσαι εαν ωσιν εκει και επι τον ημμενον του οστεου του ανθρωπινου η του τραυματιου η του τεθνηκοτος η του μνηματος | 18 then a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it upon the tent, and upon all the furnishings, and upon the persons who were there, and upon him who touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave; |
| 19 και περιρρανει ο καθαρος επι τον ακαθαρτον εν τη ημερα τη τριτη και εν τη ημερα τη εβδομη και αφαγνισθησεται τη ημερα τη εβδομη και πλυνει τα ιματια αυτου και λουσεται υδατι και ακαθαρτος εσται εως εσπερας | 19 and the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day; thus on the seventh day he shall cleanse him, and he shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and at evening he shall be clean. |
| 20 και ανθρωπος ος εαν μιανθη και μη αφαγνισθη εξολεθρευθησεται η ψυχη εκεινη εκ μεσου της συναγωγης οτι τα αγια κυριου εμιανεν οτι υδωρ ραντισμου ου περιερραντισθη επ' αυτον ακαθαρτος εστιν | 20 "But the man who is unclean and does not cleanse himself, that person shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, since he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD; because the water for impurity has not been thrown upon him, he is unclean. |
| 21 και εσται υμιν νομιμον αιωνιον και ο περιρραινων υδωρ ραντισμου πλυνει τα ιματια αυτου και ο απτομενος του υδατος του ραντισμου ακαθαρτος εσται εως εσπερας | 21 And it shall be a perpetual statute for them. He who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes; and he who touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening. |
| 22 και παντος ου εαν αψηται αυτου ο ακαθαρτος ακαθαρτον εσται και η ψυχη η απτομενη ακαθαρτος εσται εως εσπερας | 22 And whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and any one who touches it shall be unclean until evening." |
