Keeping the Military Camp Clean

⁹ “When you are in camp in time of war, you are to avoid anything that would make you ritually unclean. ¹⁰ If a man becomes unclean because he has had a wet dream during the night, he is to go outside the camp and stay there. ¹¹ Toward evening he is to wash himself, and at sunset he may come back into camp.

¹² “You are to have a place outside the camp where you can go when you need to relieve yourselves. ¹³ Carry a stick as part of your equipment, so that when you have a bowel movement you can dig a hole and cover it up. ¹⁴ Keep your camp ritually clean, because the Lord your God is with you in your camp to protect you and to give you victory over your enemies. Do not do anything indecent that would cause the Lord to turn his back on you.
