Leviticus 14:1-32

1Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2“This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing. 1Now he shall be brought to the priest, 3and the priest shall go 2out to the outside of the camp. Thus the priest shall look, and if the 3infection of leprosy has been healed in the leper, 4then the priest shall give orders to take two live clean birds and 4cedar wood and a 5scarlet string and hyssop for the one who is to be cleansed. 5The priest shall also give orders to slay the one bird in an earthenware vessel over 6running water. 6As for the live bird, he shall take it together with 7the cedar wood and the 8scarlet string and the 9hyssop, and shall dip them and the live bird in the blood of the bird that was slain over the 10running water. 711He shall then sprinkle seven times the one who is to be cleansed from the leprosy and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the live bird go free over the open field. 812The one to be cleansed shall then wash his clothes and shave off all his hair and bathe in water and 13be clean. Now afterward, he may enter the camp, but he 14shall stay outside his tent for seven days. 9It will be on the seventh day that he shall shave off all his hair: he shall shave his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair. He shall then wash his clothes and bathe his 15body in water and 16be clean.

10“Now on the eighth day he is to take two male lambs without defect, and a yearling ewe lamb without defect, and three-tenths of an 17ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and one 1819log of oil; 11and the priest who pronounces him clean shall present the man to be cleansed and the 20aforesaid before the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 12Then the priest shall take the one male lamb and bring it for a 21guilt offering, with the 2223log of oil, and present them as a 24wave offering before the Lord. 13Next he shall slaughter the male lamb in 25the place where they slaughter the sin offering and the burnt offering, at the place of the sanctuary--for the guilt offering, 26like the sin offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy. 14The priest shall then take some of the blood of the 27guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on 28the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. 15The priest shall also take some of the 2930log of oil, and pour it into his left palm; 16the priest shall then dip his right-hand finger into the oil that is in his left palm, and with his finger sprinkle some of the oil seven times before the Lord. 17Of the remaining oil which is in his palm, the priest shall put some on the right ear lobe of the one 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 guilt offering; 18while the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s palm, he shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed. So the priest shall make 31atonement on his behalf before the Lord. 19The priest shall next offer the 32sin offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness. Then afterward, he shall slaughter the burnt offering. 20The priest shall offer up the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. Thus the priest shall make atonement for him, and 33he will be clean.

21“34But if he is poor and his 35means are insufficient, then he is to take one male lamb for a 36guilt offering as a wave offering to make atonement for him, and one-tenth of an 37ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and a 3839log of oil, 22and two turtledoves or two young pigeons which 40are within his means, 41the one shall be a 42sin offering and the other a burnt offering. 2343Then the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, at the doorway of the tent of meeting, before the Lord. 24The priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering and 44the 45log of oil, and the priest shall offer them for a wave offering before the Lord. 25Next he shall slaughter the lamb of the guilt offering; and the priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on 46the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. 26The priest shall also pour some of the oil into his left palm; 27and with his right-hand finger the priest shall sprinkle some of the oil that is in his left palm seven times before the Lord. 28The priest shall then put some of the oil that is in his palm on the lobe of the right ear of the one 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 guilt offering. 29Moreover, the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s palm he shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement on his behalf before the Lord. 30He shall then offer one of the turtledoves or young pigeons, 47which are within his means. 31He shall offer what 48he can afford, 49the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, together with the grain offering. So the priest shall make atonement before the Lord on behalf of the one to be cleansed. 32This is the law for him in whom there is an infection of leprosy, whose 50means are limited for his cleansing.”
