3And the priestH3548 shall go forthH3318 outH2351 of the campH4264; and the priestH3548 shall lookH7200, and, behold, if the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883 be healedH7495 in the leperH6879;

4Then shall the priestH3548 commandH6680 to takeH3947 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 twoH8147 birdsH6833 aliveH2416 and cleanH2889, and cedarH730 woodH6086, and scarletH8438H8144, and hyssopH231:1

6As for the livingH2416 birdH6833, he shall takeH3947 it, and the cedarH730 woodH6086, and the scarletH8438H8144, and the hyssopH231, and shall dipH2881 them and the livingH2416 birdH6833 in the bloodH1818 of the birdH6833 that was killedH7819 over the runningH2416 waterH4325:

7And he shall sprinkleH5137 upon him that is to be cleansedH2891 from the leprosyH6883 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and shall pronounce him cleanH2891, and shall let the livingH2416 birdH6833 looseH7971 into the openH6440 fieldH7704.2
