Leviticus 14:12-32

12Then the priest shall take the one male lamb and bring it as a 1guilt offering, with the 23log of oil, and present them as a 4wave offering before the Lord. 13Next he shall slaughter the male lamb in 5the place where they slaughter the 6sin offering and the burnt offering, at the place of the sanctuary--for the guilt offering, 7like the 8sin offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy. 14The priest shall then take some of the blood of the 9guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on 10the 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 1112log 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 13put 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; 18as for the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s palm, he shall put it on the head of the one to be cleansed. So the priest shall make 14atonement on his behalf before the Lord. 19The priest shall next offer the 1516sin 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. So the priest shall make atonement for him, and 17he will be clean.

21“18But if he is poor and his 19means are insufficient, then he is to take one male lamb for a 20guilt offering as a wave offering to make atonement for him, and a tenth of an 21ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and a 2223log of oil, 22and two turtledoves or two young doves, which 24are within his means. 25The one shall be a 2627sin offering, and the other a burnt offering. 2328Then on 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 29the 30log of oil, and the priest shall offer them as 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 31the 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 doves, 32which are within his means. 31He shall offer what 33he can afford, 34the one as a 35sin offering and the other as 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 36means are limited for his cleansing.”
