Any descendant of Aaron who is afflicted with skin disease[a] or has a discharge cannot eat of the holy things until he is clean. Anyone who touches anything made unclean by a dead body, or who has an emission of semen, or who touches any swarming creature or another person who makes him unclean—whatever the uncleanness might be— the person who touches these things will be unclean until evening. He must not eat of the holy things unless he has bathed his body in water.
