OET (OET-RV) “ ‘Anyone who’s ‘unclean’ and doesn’t purify themself, that person will be permanently removed from the camp because they’ve made Yahweh’s sanctuary ‘unclean’. They didn’t sprinkle that purifying water on themself, so they remain ‘unclean’.

וְנִכְרְתָ֛ה הַנֶּ֥פֶשׁ הַהִ֖וא מִתּ֣וֹךְ הַקָּהָ֑ל
and,it_will_be_cut_off the=living_creatures the=that from,among_of the,assembly
The expression shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is the rest of the Israelites. Alternate translation: [the rest of the Israelites shall drive that person out from the midst of the assembly]

וְנִכְרְתָ֛ה & מִתּ֣וֹךְ הַקָּהָ֑ל
and,it_will_be_cut_off & from,among_of the,assembly
Yahweh is speaking as if the person being expelled from the community were being physically cut off. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [shall be expelled from the assembly]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
מֵ֥י נִדָּ֛ה לֹא־זֹרַ֥ק עָלָ֖יו
water_of impurity not sprinkled on/upon/above=him/it
See how you translated the similar expression in 19:13. The expression was not splashed on him is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [No one splashed the water of impurity on him]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
מֵ֥י נִדָּ֛ה

The word translated as for indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: [Because he has made the holy place of Yahweh unclean]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
