1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
1 Y JEHOVÁ habló á Moisés y á Aarón, diciendo:
2 This is the constitution of the law, as the Lord has commanded, saying, Speak to the sons of Israel, and let them take for thee a red heifer without spot, which has no spot on her, and on which no yoke has been put.
2 Esta es la ordenanza de la ley que Jehová ha prescrito, diciendo: Di á los hijos de Israel que te traigan una vaca bermeja, perfecta, en la cual no haya falta, sobre la cual no se haya puesto yugo:
3 And thou shalt give her to Eleazar the priest; and they shall bring her out of the camp into a clean place, and shall kill her before his face.
3 Y la daréis á Eleazar el sacerdote, y él la sacará fuera del campo, y harála degollar en su presencia.
4 And Eleazar shall take of her blood, and sprinkle of her blood seven times in front of the tabernacle of witness.
4 Y tomará Eleazar el sacerdote de su sangre con su dedo, y rociará hacia la delantera del tabernáculo del testimonio con la sangre de ella siete veces;
5 And they shall burn her to ashes before him; and her skin and her flesh and her blood, with her dung, shall be consumed.
5 Y hará quemar la vaca ante sus ojos: su cuero y su carne y su sangre, con su estiércol, hará quemar.
6 And the priest shall take cedar wood and hyssop and scarlet wool, and they shall cast them into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
6 Luego tomará el sacerdote palo de cedro, é hisopo, y escarlata, y lo echará en medio del fuego en que arde la vaca.
7 And the priest shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards he shall go into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean till evening.
7 El sacerdote lavará luego sus vestidos, lavará también su carne con agua, y después entrará en el real; y será inmundo el sacerdote hasta la tarde.
8 And he that burns her shall wash his garments, and bathe his body, and shall be unclean till evening.
8 Asimismo el que la quemó, lavará sus vestidos en agua, también lavará en agua su carne, y será inmundo hasta la tarde.
9 And a clean man shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up in a clean place outside the camp; and they shall be for the congregation of the children of Israel to keep: it is the water of sprinkling, a purification.
9 Y un hombre limpio recogerá las cenizas de la vaca, y las pondrá fuera del campo en lugar limpio, y las guardará la congregación de los hijos de Israel para el agua de separación: es una expiación.
10 And he that gathers up the ashes of the heifer shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean until evening; and it shall be a perpetual statute for the children of Israel and for the strangers joined to them.
10 Y el que recogió las cenizas de la vaca, lavará sus vestidos, y será inmundo hasta la tarde: y será á los hijos de Israel, y al extranjero que peregrina entre ellos, por estatuto perpetuo.
11 He that touches the dead body of any man, shall be unclean seven days.
11 El que tocare muerto de cualquiera persona humana, siete días será inmundo:
12 He shall be purified on the third day and the seventh day, and shall be clean; but if he be not purged on the third day and the seventh day, he shall not be clean.
12 Este se purificará al tercer día con aquesta [agua], y al séptimo día será limpio; y si al tercer día no se purificare, no será limpio al séptimo día.
13 Every one that touches the carcase of the person of a man, if he should have died, and [the other] not have been purified, has defiled the tabernacle of the Lord: that soul shall be cut off from Israel, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him.
13 Cualquiera que tocare en muerto, en persona de hombre que estuviere muerto, y no se purificare, el tabernáculo de Jehová contaminó; y aquella persona será cortada de Israel: por cuanto el agua de la separación no fué rociada sobre él, inmundo será; y su inmundicia será sobre él.
14 And this [is] the law; if a man die in a house, every one that goes into the house, and all things in the house, shall be unclean seven days.
14 Esta es la ley para cuando alguno muriere en la tienda: cualquiera que entrare en la tienda y todo el que estuviere en ella, será inmundo siete días.
15 And every open vessel which has not a covering bound upon it, shall be unclean.
15 Y todo vaso abierto, sobre el cual no hubiere tapadera bien ajustada, será inmundo.
16 And every one who shall touch a man slain by violence, or a corpse, or human bone, or sepulchre, shall be unclean seven days.
16 Y cualquiera que tocare en muerto á cuchillo sobre la haz del campo, ó en muerto, ó en hueso humano, ó en sepulcro, siete días será inmundo.
17 And they shall take for the unclean of the burnt ashes of purification, and they shall pour upon them running water into a vessel.
17 Y para el inmundo tomarán de la ceniza de la quemada vaca de la expiación, y echarán sobre ella agua viva en un vaso:
18 And a clean man shall take hyssop, and dip it into the water, and sprinkle it upon the house, and the furniture, and all the souls that are therein, and upon him that touched the human bone, or the slain man, or the corpse, or the tomb.
18 Y un hombre limpio tomará hisopo, y mojarálo en el agua, y rociará sobre la tienda, y sobre todos los muebles, y sobre las personas que allí estuvieren, y sobre aquel que hubiere tocado el hueso, ó el matado, ó el muerto, ó el sepulcro:
19 And the clean man shall sprinkle [the water] on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day, and on the seventh day he shall purify himself; and [the other] shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening.
19 Y el limpio rociará sobre el inmundo al tercero y al séptimo día: y cuando lo habrá purificado al día séptimo, él lavará luego sus vestidos, y á sí mismo se lavará con agua, y será limpio á la tarde.
20 And whatever man shall be defiled and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the congregation, because he has defiled the holy things of the Lord, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean.
20 Y el que fuere inmundo, y no se purificare, la tal persona será cortada de entre la congregación, por cuanto contaminó el tabernáculo de Jehová: no fué rociada sobre él el agua de separación: es inmundo.
21 And it shall be to you a perpetual statute; and he that sprinkles the water of sprinkling shall wash his garments; and he that touches the water of sprinkling shall be unclean until evening.
21 Y les será por estatuto perpetuo: también el que rociare el agua de la separación lavará sus vestidos; y el que tocare el agua de la separación, será inmundo hasta la tarde.
22 And whatsoever the unclean man shall touch shall be unclean, and the soul that touches it shall be unclean till evening.
22 Y todo lo que el inmundo tocare, será inmundo: y la persona que lo tocare, será inmunda hasta la tarde.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
In the law every one who toucheth a dead body was considered impure, but these are not dead.
