It shall be, when you relieve yourself, you shall dig with it, and shall turn back and cover your excrement; for the LORD your God walks in the middle of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you. Therefore your camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
