himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the
consecration of his God is upon his head.

defile himself, because the crown of
consecration to his God is upon his head.

purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because he hath

purify himself, he will be cut off from the assembly, because he has
defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water of
purification has not been
sprinkled on him; he is unclean.

devour their prey and drink the blood of the slain.”
