Exegesis

The second clause mirrors this pattern: vehanose {וְהַנּוֹשֵׂא | wə-hanōśēʾ} parallels hanôgēa, followed by the Piel yechabes {יְכַבֵּס | yĕ-ḥabbēs} “shall wash” with begadav {בְּגָדָיו | bə-ɡā·dāyw}, and the Qal perfect verakhats {וְרָחַץ | wə-rāḥaṣ} “bathe” with bamayim {בַּמַּיִם | ba-mayyim}.

In contextLeviticus 15:10

And anyone who touches anything under him shall be unclean until evening; and anyone who carries them shall wash his garments and bathe in water and shall be unclean until evening.
