And Hashem spoke unto Moshe and unto Aharon, saying,
This is the chukkat hatorah which Hashem hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, that they bring thee a completely red female cow [that has not produced a calf], wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came ol (yoke):
And ye shall give her unto Eleazar HaKohen, that he may bring her forth outside the machaneh, and one shall slaughter (shachat) her before his face;
And Eleazar HaKohen shall take of her dahm with his finger, and sprinkle of her dahm directly before the Ohel Mo'ed seven times;
And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her hide, and her basar, and her dahm, with her dung, shall he burn;
And the kohen shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and crimson thread, and cast it into the midst of the burning heifer.
Then the kohen shall wash his clothes, and he shall immerse his basar in mayim, and afterward he shall come into the machaneh, and the kohen shall be tamei until the erev.
