Leviticus 15:20-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

20. Anything on which she lies or sits during her menstrual period shall be unclean.

21. Anyone who touches her bed shall wash his garments, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

22. Whoever touches any article on which she was sitting shall wash his garments, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

23. Whether an object is on the bed or on something she sat upon, when the person touches it, that person shall be unclean until evening.

24. If a man lies with her, he contracts her menstrual uncleanness and shall be unclean for seven days; every bed on which he then lies also becomes unclean.

25. When a woman has a flow of blood for several days outside her menstrual period, or when her flow continues beyond the ordinary period, as long as she suffers this unclean flow she shall be unclean, just as during her menstrual period.

26. Any bed on which she lies during such a flow becomes unclean, as it would during her menstrual period, and any article on which she sits becomes unclean just as during her menstrual period.

27. Anyone who touches them becomes unclean; that person shall wash his garments, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

28. When she becomes clean from her flow, she shall count seven days; after this she becomes clean.

29. On the eighth day she shall take two turtledoves or two pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
