1.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
 
2.    This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his  cleansing: he shall be brought unto the priest,
 
3.    and the priest shall go out of the camp; and when the  priest looketh, and behold, the sore of leprosy is healed in  the leper,
 
4.    then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be  cleansed two clean living birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet,  and hyssop.
 
5.    And the priest shall command that one bird be killed in an  earthen vessel over running water:
 
6.    as to the living bird -- he shall take it, and the  cedar-wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and dip them and  the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over  the running water;
 
7.    and he shall sprinkle upon 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.
 
8.    And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his garments, and  shave all his hair, and bathe in water, and he shall be clean;  and afterwards shall he come into the camp, and shall abide  outside his tent seven days.
 
9.    And it shall come to pass on the seventh day, that he shall  shave all his hair, his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows,  even all his hair shall he shave, and he shall wash his  garments, and shall bathe his flesh in water, and he is clean.
 
10.    And on the eighth day he shall take two he-lambs without  blemish, and one yearling ewe-lamb without blemish, and three  tenth parts of fine flour mingled with oil, for an oblation,  and one log of oil.
 
11.    And the priest that cleanseth him shall present the man  that is to be cleansed and those things before Jehovah, at the  entrance of the tent of meeting.
 
12.    And the priest shall take one he-lamb, and present it for  a trespass-offering, and the log of oil, and wave them as a  wave-offering before Jehovah.
 
13.    And he shall slaughter the he-lamb at the place where the  sin-offering and the burnt-offering are slaughtered, in a holy  place; for as the sin-offering, so the trespass-offering is the  priest`s: it is most holy.
 
14.    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 great toe of his right foot.
 
15.    And the priest shall take of the log of oil, and pour it  into his, the priest`s, left hand;
 
16.    and the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that  is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his  finger seven times before Jehovah.
 
17.    And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the  priest 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 great  toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass-offering.
 
18.    And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest`s hand  he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, and  the priest shall make atonement for him before Jehovah.
 
19.    And the priest shall offer the sin-offering, and make  atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness;  and afterwards shall he slaughter the burnt-offering.
 
20.    And the priest shall offer the burnt-offering and the  oblation upon the altar; and the priest shall make atonement  for him, and he shall be clean.
 
21.    But if he be poor, and his hand be not able to get it,  then he shall take one lamb for a trespass-offering, for a  wave-offering, to make atonement for him; and one tenth part of  fine flour mingled with oil for an oblation; and a log of oil,
 
22.    and two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, as his hand  may be able to get: the one shall be a sin-offering, and the  other a burnt-offering.
 
23.    And he shall bring them on the eighth day of his cleansing  unto the priest, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting,  before Jehovah.
 
24.    And the priest shall take the he-lamb of the  trespass-offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall  wave them as a wave-offering before Jehovah.
 
25.    And he shall slaughter the he-lamb of the  trespass-offering; and the priest shall take of the blood of  the trespass-offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear  of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right  hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.
 
26.    And the priest shall pour of the oil into his, the  priest`s, left hand,
 
27.    and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger of the  oil that is in his left hand seven times before Jehovah.
 
28.    And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand  upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed,  and upon the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of  his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the  trespass-offering.
 
29.    And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest`s hand  he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to  make atonement for him before Jehovah.
 
30.    And he shall offer one of the turtle-doves, or of the  young pigeons, of what his hand was able to get;
 
31.    of what his hand was able to get shall the one be a  sin-offering, and the other a burnt-offering, with the  oblation; and the priest shall make atonement for him that is  to be cleansed before Jehovah.
 
32.    This is the law for him in whom is the sore of leprosy,  whose hand cannot get what is regularly prescribed in his  cleansing.
 
33.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 
34.    When ye come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you  for a possession, and I put a leprous plague in a house of the  land of your possession,
 
35.    then he whose house it is shall come and tell the priest,  saying, It seemeth to me like a plague in the house;
 
36.    and the priest shall command that they empty the house  before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that  is in the house be not made unclean; and afterwards the priest  shall go in to see the house.
 
37.    And when he looketh on the plague, and behold, the plague  is in the walls of the house, greenish or reddish hollows, and  their look is deeper than the surface of the wall,
 
38.    then the priest shall go out of the house to the entrance  of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
 
39.    And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and when  he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the walls of  the house,
 
40.    then the priest shall command that they take away the  stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them out of  the city, in an unclean place.
 
41.    And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round  about, and they shall pour out the mortar that they have  scraped off, out of the city in an unclean place.
 
42.    And they shall take other stones, and put them in the  place of those stones; and they shall take other mortar, and  shall plaster the house.
 
43.    And if the plague come again, and break out in the house,  after he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped  the house, and after it is plastered,
 
44.    then the priest shall come, and when he looketh, and  behold, the plague hath spread in the house, it is a corroding  leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
 
45.    And they shall break down the house, the stones of it, and  the timber thereof, and all the mortar of the house, and shall  carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
 
46.    And he that goeth into the house as long as it is shut up  shall be unclean until the even.
 
47.    And he that sleepeth in the house shall wash his garments,  and he that eateth in the house shall wash his garments.
 
48.    But if the priest shall come in and look, and behold, the  plague hath not spread in the house, after the house hath been  plastered, the priest shall pronounce the house clean; for the  plague is healed.
 
49.    And he shall take, to purge the house from the defilement,  two birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop;
 
50.    and he shall kill one bird in an earthen vessel over  running water;
 
51.    and he shall take the cedar-wood and the hyssop and the  scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the  bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle  the house seven times;
 
52.    and he shall purge the house from the defilement 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;
 
53.    and he shall let the living bird loose out of the city  into the open field; and he shall make atonement for the house,  and it is clean.
 
54.    This is the law for every sore of leprosy, and for the  scall,
 
55.    and for the leprosy of garments, and of houses,
 
56.    and for the rising, and for the scab, and for the bright  spot,
 
57.    to teach when there is uncleanness, and when it is  purified: this is the law of leprosy.
