Leviticus 14:9-20

9Then it shall 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 1body in water and 2be 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 3ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and one 45log of oil; 11and the priest who is going to pronounce him clean shall present the person to be cleansed and 6the offerings before the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 12Then the priest shall take the one male lamb and bring it as a 7guilt offering, with the 89log of oil, and present them as a 10wave offering before the Lord. 13Next he shall slaughter the male lamb in 11the place where they slaughter the 12sin offering and the burnt offering, at the place of the sanctuary--for the guilt offering, 13like the 14sin offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy. 14The priest shall then take some of the blood of the 15guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on 16the 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 1718log 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 19put 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 20atonement on his behalf before the Lord. 19The priest shall next offer the 2122sin 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 23he will be clean.
