Leviticus 14:1-20

1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2This shall beH1961 the lawH8451 of the leper in the dayH3117 of his cleansing: he shall beH1961 broughtH935 unto the priestH3548: 3and the priestH3548 shall goH3318 forthH3318 out of the campH4264; and the priestH3548 shall look; and, behold, if the plagueH5061 of leprosy be healedH7495 in the leper, 4then shall the priestH3548 commandH6680 to takeH3947 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 twoH8147 living cleanH2889 birdsH6833, and cedarH730 woodH6086, and scarletH8144, and hyssopH231: 5and the priestH3548 shall commandH6680 to kill oneH259 of the birdsH6833 in an earthen vesselH3627 over running waterH4325. 6As for the living birdH6833, he shall takeH3947 it, and the cedarH730 woodH6086, and the scarletH8144, and the hyssopH231, and shall dipH2881 them and the living birdH6833 in the bloodH1818 of the birdH6833 that was killed over the running waterH4325: 7and he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansedH2891 from the leprosy sevenH7651 timesH6471, and shall pronounce him cleanH2891, and shall let goH7971 the living birdH6833 into the open fieldH7704. 8And he that is to be cleansedH2891 shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and shaveH1548 off all his hairH8181, and batheH7364 himself in waterH4325; and he shall be cleanH2891: and after that he shall comeH935 into the campH4264, but shall dwellH3427 outside his tentH168 sevenH7651 daysH3117. 9And it shall beH1961 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that he shall shaveH1548 all his hairH8181 off his headH7218 and his beardH2206 and his eyebrows, even all his hairH8181 he shall shaveH1548 off: and he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and he shall batheH7364 his fleshH1320 in waterH4325, and he shall beH1961 cleanH2891.

10And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he shall takeH3947 twoH8147 he-lambs without blemish, and oneH259 ewe-lamb a yearH8141 old without blemish, and threeH7969 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah of fineH5560 flourH5560 for a meal-offering, mingled with oilH8081, and oneH259 logH3849 of oilH8081. 11And the priestH3548 that cleanseth him shall setH5975 the manH376 that is to be cleansedH2891, and those things, before Jehovah, at the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 12And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 oneH259 of the he-lambs, and offer him for a trespass-offering, and the logH3849 of oilH8081, and wave them for a wave-offering before Jehovah: 13and he shall kill the he-lamb in the placeH4725 whereH834 they kill the sin-offering and the burnt-offering, in the placeH4725 of the sanctuaryH6944: for as the sin-offering is the priest’sH3548, so is the trespass-offering: it is most holyH6944. 14And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818 of the trespass-offering, and the priestH3548 shall putH5414 it upon the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and upon the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and upon the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272. 15And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 of the logH3849 of oilH8081, and pourH3332 it into the palmH3709 of his own left handH3709; 16and the priestH3548 shall dipH2881 his rightH3233 fingerH676 in the oilH8081 that is in his left handH3709, and shall sprinkle of the oilH8081 with his fingerH676 sevenH7651 timesH6471 before Jehovah. 17And of the restH3499 of the oilH8081 that is in his handH3027 shall the priestH3548 putH5414 upon the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and upon the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and upon the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272, upon the bloodH1818 of the trespass-offering: 18and the rest of the oilH8081 that is in the priest’sH3548 handH3709 he shall putH5414 upon the headH7218 of him that is to be cleansedH2891: and the priestH3548 shall makeH5414 atonementH3722 for him before Jehovah. 19And the priestH3548 shall offer the sin-offering, and makeH6213 atonementH3722 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 because of his uncleannessH2932: and afterward he shall kill the burnt-offering; 20and the priestH3548 shall offerH5927 the burnt-offering and the meal-offering upon the altarH4196: and the priestH3548 shall make atonementH3722 for him, and he shall be cleanH2891.
