* And the LORD spoke to Moses , saying , * This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing . He shall be brought to the priest . * And the priest shall go forth out of the camp . And the priest shall look , and behold , [if ] the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper , * then the priest shall command to take two clean live birds for him that is to be cleansed , and cedar wood , and scarlet , and hyssop . * And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water . * He shall take the living bird , and the cedar wood and the scarlet and the hyssop , and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the slain bird , over the running water . * And he shall sprinkle on him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times , and shall pronounce him clean , and shall let the living bird loose into the open field . * And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes , and shave off all his hair , and wash himself in water so that he may be clean . And after that he shall come into the camp , and shall stay outside his tent seven days . * But on the seventh day he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eye-brows ; even all his hair shall he shave off . And he shall wash his clothes . He also shall wash his flesh in water , and he shall be clean . * And on the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish , and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish , and three-tenth parts of fine flour [for ] a food offering , mixed with oil , and one log of oil . * And the priest who is cleansing , and the man who is to be cleansed , shall stand with them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation . * And the priest shall take one male lamb and offer him for a trespass offering , and the log of oil , and wave them [for ] a wave offering before the LORD . * And he shall kill the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin offering and the burnt offering , in the holy place . For as the sin offering [is ] the priest 's , so is the trespass offering . It [is ] most holy . * And the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass offering , and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed , and on the thumb of his right hand , and on the big toe of his right foot . * And the priest shall take from the log of oil and pour into the palm of his own left hand . * And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil in his left hand and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD . * And of the rest of the oil in his hand , the priest shall put on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed , and on the thumb of his right hand , and on the big toe of his right foot , on the blood of the trespass offering . * And the rest of the oil in the priest 's palm he shall pour on the head of him that is to be cleansed . And the priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD . * And the priest shall offer the sin offering and make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness . And afterward he shall kill the burnt offering . * And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the food offering on the altar . And the priest shall make an atonement for him , and he shall be clean . * And if he [is ] poor and his hand cannot reach [so much ], then he shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved , to make an atonement for him , and one-tenth part of fine flour mixed with oil for a food offering , and a log of oil , * and two turtle-doves or two young pigeons , such as his hand can reach . And the one shall be a sin offering , and the other a burnt offering . * And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing to the priest , to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD . * And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering , and the log of oil , and the priest shall wave them [for ] a wave offering before the LORD . * And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering . And the priest shall take from the blood of the trespass offering , and put it on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed , and on the thumb of his right hand , and on the big toe of his right foot . * And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left hand . * And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD . * And the priest shall put of the oil in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed , and on the thumb of his right hand , and on the big toe of his right foot , on the place of the blood of the trespass offering . * And the rest of the oil in the priest 's hand he shall put on the head of him that is to be cleansed , to make an atonement for him before the LORD . * And he shall offer the one of the turtle-doves , or of the young pigeons , such as he is able to get , * even such as he is able to reach , the one [for ] a sin offering and the other [for ] a burnt offering , with the food offering . And the priest shall make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the LORD . * This [is ] the law of him in whom [is ] the plague of leprosy , whose hand is not able to reach in his cleansing . * And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron , saying , * When you come into the land of Canaan which I give you for a possession , and I put the plague of leprosy in a house in the land of your possession , * and if he that owns the house shall come and tell the priest , saying , A plague [is ] seen by me in the house ; * then the priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest goes to see the plague , so that all that [is ] in the house may not become unclean . And afterwards the priest shall go in to see the house . * And he shall look on the plague . And behold , [if ] the plague [is ] in the walls of the house with hollow streaks , greenish or reddish , which in sight are lower than the wall , * then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house , and shut up the house seven days . * And the priest shall come again the seventh day and shall look . And behold , [if ] the plague has spread in the walls of the house , * then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague [is ], and they shall throw them into an unclean place outside the city . * And he shall cause the house to be scraped inside all around , and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off outside the city in an unclean place . * And they shall take other stones and put [them ] in the place of those stones . And he shall take other mortar and shall plaster the house . * And if the plague comes again and breaks out in the house after he has taken away the stones and after he has scraped the house , and after it is plastered , * then the priest shall come and look . And behold , [if ] the plague has spread in the house , it [is ] a fretting leprosy in the house . It [is ] unclean . * And he shall break down the house , the stones of it , and the timber of it , and all the mortar of the house , and he shall carry [them ] out of the city into an unclean place . * And he that goes into the house all the days that it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening . * And he that lies in the house shall wash his clothes . And he that eats in the house shall wash his clothes . * And if the priest shall come in and look , and , behold , the plague has not spread in the house after the house was plastered , then the priest shall pronounce the house clean because the plague is healed . * And he shall take two birds to cleanse the house , and cedar-wood , and scarlet [dye ], and hyssop . * And he shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water . * And he shall take the cedar wood , and the hyssop , and the scarlet dye , and the living bird , and dip them in the blood of the slain bird and in the running water , and sprinkle the house seven times . * And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird , and with the running water , and with the living bird , and with the cedar wood , and with the hyssop , and with the scarlet . * But he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the open field , and make an atonement for the house . And it shall be clean . * This [is ] the law for all kinds of plague of leprosy and scab , * and for the leprosy of a garment and of a house , * and for a rising and for a scab and for a bright spot , * to teach when [it is ] unclean and when it is clean . This [is ] the law of leprosy .
