Leviticus 14:2-9

2“This is the Torah of the one with tza'arat in the day of his cleansing. He shall be brought to the kohen,

3and the kohen is to go to the outside of the camp. The kohen is to examine him, and behold, if the mark of tza'arat is healed in one with tza'arat,

4then the kohen is to command that two clean living birds, cedar wood, scarlet and hyssop be brought for the one being cleansed.

5The kohen shall command them to kill one of the birds in a clay pot over living water.

6As for the living bird, he is to take it, the cedar wood, the scarlet and the hyssop, and dip them with the living bird into the blood of the bird that was killed over the living water.

7He is to sprinkle on the one being cleansed from the tza'arat seven times and pronounce him clean, then release the living bird over the open field.

8“The one to be cleansed must wash his clothes, shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water. Then he shall be clean. After that he may come into the camp, but is to dwell outside his tent for seven days.

9Then on the seventh day, he is to shave all his hair from his head, his beard, and his eyebrows—he must shave off all his hair. He is to wash his clothes, and bathe his body in water. Then he will be clean.
