Seeker Overlay ON
* "
This shall be the law of the leper for the day of his cleansing .
He shall be brought to the priest ;
*
and the priest shall go out of the camp ,
and the priest shall make an examination .
Then ,
if the leprous disease is healed in the leper ,
*
the priest shall command them to take for him who is to be cleansed two living clean birds and cedarwood and scarlet stuff and hyssop ;
*
and the priest shall command them to kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water .
*
He shall take the living bird with the cedarwood and the scarlet stuff and the hyssop ,
and dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water ;
*
and he shall sprinkle it seven times upon him who is to be cleansed of leprosy ;
then he shall pronounce him clean ,
and shall let the living bird go into the open field .
*
And he who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes ,
and shave off all his hair ,
and bathe himself in water ,
and he shall be clean ;
and after that he shall come into the camp ,
but shall dwell outside his tent seven days .
*
And on the seventh day he shall shave all his hair off his head ;
he shall shave off his beard and his eyebrows ,
all his hair .
Then he shall wash his clothes ,
and bathe his body in water ,
and he shall be clean .
* "
And on the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish ,
and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish ,
and a cereal offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil ,
and one log of oil .
*
And the priest who cleanses him shall set the man who is to be cleansed and these things before the LORD ,
at the door of the tent of meeting .
*
And the priest shall take one of the male lambs ,
and offer it for a guilt offering ,
along with the log of oil ,
and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD ;
*
and he shall kill the lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering ,
in the holy place ;
for the guilt offering ,
like the sin offering ,
belongs to the priest ;
it is most holy .
*
The priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering ,
and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed ,
and on the thumb of his right hand ,
and on the great toe of his right foot .
*
Then the priest shall take some of the log of oil ,
and pour it into the palm of his own left hand ,
*
and dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand ,
and sprinkle some oil with his finger seven times before the LORD .
*
And some of the oil that remains in his hand the priest shall put on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed ,
and on the thumb of his right hand ,
and on the great toe of his right foot ,
upon the blood of the guilt offering ;
*
and the rest of the oil that is in the priest '
s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed .
Then the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD .
*
The priest shall offer the sin offering ,
to make atonement for him who 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 cereal offering on the altar .
Thus the priest shall make atonement for him ,
and he shall be clean .
* "
But if he is poor and cannot afford so much ,
then he shall take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved ,
to make atonement for him ,
and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a cereal offering ,
and a log of oil ;
*
also two turtledoves or two young pigeons ,
such as he can afford ;
the one shall be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering .
*
And on the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest ,
to the door of the tent of meeting ,
before the LORD ;
*
and the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt 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 guilt offering ;
and the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering ,
and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed ,
and on the thumb of his right hand ,
and on the great toe of his right foot .
*
And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand ;
*
and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD ;
*
and the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed ,
and on the thumb of his right hand ,
and the great toe of his right foot ,
in the place where the blood of the guilt offering was put ;
*
and the rest of the oil that is in the priest '
s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed ,
to make atonement for him before the LORD .
*
And he shall offer ,
of the turtledoves or young pigeons such as he can afford ,
*
one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering ,
along with a cereal offering ;
and the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for him who is being cleansed .
*
This is the law for him in whom is a leprous disease ,
who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing ."
