11 Leave! Leave! Get out of there!
Don’t touch anything unclean!
Get out of it!
Stay pure, you who carry the Lord’s holy items.[a]
12 Yet do not depart quickly
or leave in a panic.[b]
For the Lord goes before you;
the God of Israel is your rear guard.

11 (A)Depart, depart, go out from there,
(B)Do not touch what is unclean;
Go out of the midst of her, (C)purify yourselves,
You who carry the vessels of the Lord.

Nor will you go [a]as fugitives;
For the (E)Lord will go before you,
And (F)the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
