Leviticus 15:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

2 [a]Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When any man has a genital discharge, he is thereby unclean.(A) 3 Such is his uncleanness from this discharge, whether his body[b] drains freely with the discharge or is blocked up from the discharge. His uncleanness is on him all the days that his body discharges or is blocked up from his discharge; this is his uncleanness. 4 Any bed on which the man with the discharge lies is unclean, and any article on which he sits is unclean.

Footnotes

  1. 15:2–3 The uncleanness here is perhaps a discharge of pus because of urethritis (often but not solely associated with gonorrhea).
  2. 15:3 Body: here a euphemism in the Hebrew for “penis.”
