1And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2This shall be the lawH8451 of the leperH6879 in the dayH3117 of his cleansingH2893: he shall be broughtH935 unto the priestH3548: 3and the priestH3548 shall goH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the campH4264; and the priestH3548 shall lookH2009, and, beholdH2009, ifH2009 the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883 be healedH7495 in the leperH6879; 4then shall the priestH3548 commandH6680 to takeH3947 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 twoH8147 livingH2416 cleanH2889 birdsH6833, and cedarH730 woodH6086, and scarletH8144, and hyssopH231: 5And the priestH3548 shall commandH6680 to killH7819 one of the birdsH6833 in an earthenH2789 vesselH3627 over running waterH4325: 6as for the livingH2416 birdH6833, he shall takeH3947 it, and the cedarH730 woodH6086, and the scarletH8144, and the hyssopH231, and shall dipH2881 them and the livingH2416 birdH6833 in the bloodH1818 of the birdH6833 that was killedH7819 over the running waterH4325: 7And he shall sprinkle uponH5921 him that is to be cleansedH2891 from the leprosyH6883 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and shall pronounceH2891 him cleanH2891, and shall letH7971 goH7971 the livingH2416 birdH6833 intoH5921 the openH6440 fieldH7704. 8And he that is to be cleansedH2891 shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and shaveH1548 offH1548 allH3605 his hairH8181, and batheH7364 himselfH3117 in waterH4325, and he shall be cleanH2891: and afterH310 that he shall comeH935 intoH413 the campH4264, but shall dwellH3427 outsideH2351 his tentH168 sevenH7651 daysH3117. 9And it shall be on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that he shall shaveH1548 allH3605 his hairH8181 offH1548 his headH7218 and his beardH2206 and his eyebrows, evenH853 allH3605 his hairH8181 he shall shaveH1548 offH1548: and he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and he shall batheH7364 his fleshH1320 in waterH4325, and he shall be cleanH2891. 10And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he shall takeH3947 twoH8147 he-lambs withoutH8549 blemishH8549, and one ewe-lambH3535 of the firstH259 yearH8141 withoutH8549 blemishH8549, and threeH7969 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah of fineH5560 flourH5560 for a mealH4503 offering, mingled with oilH8081, and one logH3849 of oilH8081. 11And the priestH3548 that cleanseth him shall setH5975 the manH376 that is to be cleansedH2891, and thoseH376 things, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, at the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150: 12and the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 one of the he-lambs, and offerH7126 him for a guiltH817 offering, and the logH3849 of oilH8081, and waveH8573 them for a waveH8573 offering beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: 13and he shall killH7819 the he-lamb in the placeH4725 whereH834 they killH7819 the sinH2403 offering and the burntH5930 offering, in the placeH4725 of the sanctuaryH6944: for as the sinH2403 offering is the priest’sH3548, soH834 is the guiltH817 offering: it is mostH6944 holyH6944: 14and the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818 of the guiltH817 offering, and the priestH3548 shall putH5414 it uponH5921 the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and uponH5921 the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and uponH5921 the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272: 15and the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 of the logH3849 of oilH8081, and pourH3332 it intoH5921 the palmH3709 of his own leftH8042 handH3709: 16and the priestH3548 shall dipH2881 his rightH3233 fingerH676 in the oilH8081 that is in his leftH8042 handH3709, and shall sprinkle of the oilH8081 with his fingerH676 sevenH7651 timesH6471 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: 17and of the restH3499 of the oilH8081 that is in his handH3027 shall the priestH3548 putH5414 uponH5921 the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and uponH5921 the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and uponH5921 the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272, uponH5921 the bloodH1818 of the guiltH817 offering: 18and the restH3498 of the oilH8081 that is in the priest’sH3548 handH3709 he shall putH5414 uponH5921 the headH7218 of him that is to be cleansedH2891: and the priestH3548 shall makeH5414 atonementH3722 for him beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 19And the priestH3548 shall offerH7819 the sinH2403 offering, and makeH6213 atonementH3722 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 becauseH5921 of his uncleannessH2932; and afterwardH310 he shall killH7819 the burntH5930 offering: 20and the priestH3548 shall offerH5927 the burntH5930 offering and the mealH4503 offering uponH5921 the altarH4196: and the priestH3548 shall make atonementH3722 for him, and he shall be cleanH2891. 21And ifH518 he be poorH1800, and cannotH369 getH3947 soH3947 muchH3027, then he shall takeH3947 one he-lamb for a guiltH817 offering to be waved, to makeH3947 atonementH3722 for him, and one tenthH6241 partH3027 of an ephah of fineH5560 flourH5560 mingled with oilH8081 for a mealH4503 offering, and a logH3849 of oilH8081; 22and twoH8147 turtledovesH8449, or twoH8147 youngH1121 pigeonsH3123, suchH834 as he is ableH3027 to get; and the one shall be a sinH2403 offering, and the otherH259 a burntH5930 offering. 23And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he shall bringH935 them for his cleansingH2893 unto the priestH3548, unto the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 24And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 the lambH3532 of the guiltH817 offering, and the logH3849 of oilH8081, and the priestH3548 shall waveH8573 them for a waveH8573 offering beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: 25and he shall killH7819 the lambH3532 of the guiltH817 offering, and the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818 of the guiltH817 offering, and putH5414 it uponH5921 the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and uponH5921 the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and uponH5921 the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272: 26and the priestH3548 shall pourH3332 of the oilH8081 intoH5921 the palmH3709 of his own leftH8042 handH3709: 27and the priestH3548 shall sprinkle with his rightH3233 fingerH676 someH4480 of the oilH8081 that is in his leftH8042 handH3709 sevenH7651 timesH6471 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: 28and the priestH3548 shall putH5414 of the oilH8081 that is in his handH3027 uponH5921 the tip of the rightH3233 earH241 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, and uponH5921 the thumbH931 of his rightH3233 handH3027, and uponH5921 the great toeH931 of his rightH3233 footH7272, uponH5921 the placeH4725 of the bloodH1818 of the guiltH817 offering: 29and the restH3498 of the oilH8081 that is in the priest’sH3548 handH3709 he shall putH5414 uponH5921 the headH7218 of him that is to be cleansedH2891, to makeH5414 atonementH3722 for him beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 30And he shall offerH6213 one of the turtledovesH8449, or of the youngH1121 pigeonsH3123, suchH834 as he is ableH3027 to get; 31evenH853 suchH834 as he is ableH3027 to get, the one for a sinH2403 offering, and the otherH259 for a burntH5930 offering, with the mealH4503 offering: and the priestH3548 shall makeH3027 atonementH3722 for him that is to be cleansedH2891 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 32This is the lawH8451 of him in whomH834 is the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883, who is notH3808 ableH3027 to get that whichH834 pertaineth to his cleansingH2893. 33And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559, 34When ye be comeH935 intoH413 the landH776 of CanaanH3667, whichH834 I giveH5414 to youH834 for a possessionH272, and I putH5414 the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883 in a houseH1004 of the landH776 of your possessionH272; 35then he that owneth the houseH1004 shall comeH935 and tellH5046 the priestH3548, sayingH559, There seemeth to meH5046 to be as it were a plagueH5061 in the houseH1004: 36and the priestH3548 shall commandH6680 that they emptyH6437 the houseH1004, beforeH2962 the priestH3548 goH935 in to seeH7200 the plagueH5061, that allH3605 that is in the houseH1004 be notH3808 madeH2930 uncleanH2930: and afterwardH310 the priestH3548 shall goH935 in to seeH7200 the houseH1004: 37and he shall lookH2009 on the plagueH5061, and, beholdH2009, ifH2009 the plagueH5061 be in the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 with hollow strakes, greenishH3422 or reddishH125, and the appearanceH4758 thereof be lowerH8217 thanH4480 the wallH7023; 38then the priestH3548 shall goH3318 outH3318 of the houseH1004 to the doorH6607 of the houseH1004, and shutH5462 upH5462 the houseH1004 sevenH7651 daysH3117: 39and the priestH3548 shall comeH7725 againH7725 the seventhH7637 dayH3117, and shall lookH2009: and, beholdH2009, ifH2009 the plagueH5061 be spreadH6581 in the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004; 40then the priestH3548 shall commandH6680 that they take outH413 the stonesH68 in whichH834 the plagueH5061 is, and castH7993 them intoH413 an uncleanH2931 placeH4725 without the cityH5892: 41and he shall cause the houseH1004 to be scrapedH7096 withinH1004 roundH5439 aboutH5439, and they shall pourH8210 outH8210 the mortar that they scrapeH7096 offH7096 without the cityH5892 intoH413 an uncleanH2931 placeH4725: 42and they shall takeH3947 otherH312 stonesH68, and putH935 them in the placeH8478 of thoseH853 stonesH68; and he shall takeH3947 otherH312 mortar, and shall plaister the houseH1004. 43And ifH518 the plagueH5061 comeH7725 againH7725, and breakH7725 outH853 in the houseH1004, afterH310 that he hath taken outH853 the stonesH68, and afterH310 he hath scrapedH7096 the houseH1004, and afterH310 it is plaistered; 44then the priestH3548 shall comeH935 in and lookH2009, and, beholdH2009, ifH2009 the plagueH5061 be spreadH6581 in the houseH1004, it is a fretting leprosyH6883 in the houseH1004: it is uncleanH2931. 45And he shall breakH5422 downH5422 the houseH1004, the stonesH68 of it, and the timberH6086 thereof, and allH3605 the mortar of the houseH1004; and he shall carryH3318 them forthH3318 outH3318 of the cityH5892 intoH413 an uncleanH2931 placeH4725. 46Moreover he that goeth intoH413 the houseH1004 allH3605 the whileH5704 that it is shutH5462 upH5704 shall be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 the evenH5704. 47And he that lieth in the houseH1004 shall washH3526 his clothesH899; and he that eateth in the houseH1004 shall washH3526 his clothesH899. 48And ifH518 the priestH3548 shall comeH935 in, and lookH2009, and, beholdH2009, the plagueH5061 hath notH3808 spreadH6581 in the houseH1004, afterH310 the houseH1004 was plaistered; then the priestH3548 shall pronounceH2891 the houseH1004 cleanH2891, becauseH3588 the plagueH5061 is healedH7495. 49And he shall takeH3947 to cleanseH2398 the houseH1004 twoH8147 birdsH6833, and cedarH730 woodH6086, and scarletH8144, and hyssopH231: 50and he shall killH7819 one of the birdsH6833 in an earthenH2789 vesselH3627 over running waterH4325: 51and he shall takeH3947 the cedarH730 woodH6086, and the hyssopH231, and the scarletH8144, and the livingH2416 birdH6833, and dipH2881 them in the bloodH1818 of the slainH7819 birdH6833, and in the running waterH4325, and sprinkle the houseH1004 sevenH7651 timesH6471: 52and he shall cleanseH2398 the houseH1004 with the bloodH1818 of the birdH6833, and with the running waterH4325, and with the livingH2416 birdH6833, and with the cedarH730 woodH6086, and with the hyssopH231, and with the scarletH8144: 53but he shall letH7971 goH7971 the livingH2416 birdH6833 outH7971 of the cityH5892 intoH413 the openH6440 fieldH7704: soH7971 shall he make atonementH3722 for the houseH1004: and it shall be cleanH2891. 54This is the lawH8451 for allH3605 manner of plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883, and for a scallH5424; 55and for the leprosyH6883 of a garmentH899, and for a houseH1004; 56and for a rising, and for a scabH5597, and for a brightH934 spotH934: 57to teachH3384 when it is uncleanH2931, and when it is cleanH2889: this is the lawH8451 of leprosyH6883.
