Leviticus
Lev.14
[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his
cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:
[3] And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the
priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be
healed in the leper;
[4] Then shall the priest command to take for him that is
to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and
scarlet, and hyssop:
[5] And the priest shall command that one of the birds be
killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
[6] As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the
cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them
and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over
the running water:
[7] And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed
from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and
shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
[8] And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes,
and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, that he
may be clean: and after that he shall come into the camp, and
shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.
[9] But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall
shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows,
even all his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash his
clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall be
clean.
[10] And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs
without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without
blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering,
mingled with oil, and one log of oil.
[11] And the priest that maketh him clean shall present
the man that is to be made clean, and those things, before the
LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
[12] And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him
for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a
wave offering before the LORD:
[13] And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he
shall kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the holy
place: for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the
trespass offering: it is most holy:
[14] And the priest shall take some of the blood of the
trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of
the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb
of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot:
[15] And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and
pour it into the palm of his own left hand:
[16] And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil
that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his
finger seven times before the LORD:
[17] And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall
the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be
cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the
great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass
offering:
[18] And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest's
hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed:
and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the
LORD.
[19] And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make
an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness;
and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering:
[20] And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the
meat offering upon the altar: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
[21] And if he be poor, and cannot get so much; then he
shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make
an atonement for him, and one tenth deal of fine flour mingled
with oil for a meat offering, and a log of oil;
[22] And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he
is able to get; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the
other a burnt offering.
[23] And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his
cleansing unto the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, before the LORD.
[24] And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass
offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for
a wave offering before the LORD:
[25] And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering,
and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass
offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is
to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon
the great toe of his right foot:
[26] And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of
his own left hand:
[27] And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger
some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the
LORD:
[28] And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his
hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed,
and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of
his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the trespass
offering:
[29] And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand
he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make
an atonement for him before the LORD.
[30] And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of
the young pigeons, such as he can get;
[31] Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin
offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meat
offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for him that is
to be cleansed before the LORD.
[32] This is the law of him in whom is the plague of
leprosy, whose hand is not able to get that which pertaineth to
his cleansing.
[33] And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron,
saying,
[34] When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give
to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a
house of the land of your possession;
[35] And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the
priest, saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in
the house:
[36] Then the priest shall command that they empty the
house, before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all
that is in the house be not made unclean: and afterward the
priest shall go in to see the house:
[37] And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, if the
plague be in the walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish
or reddish, which in sight are lower than the wall;
[38] Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door
of the house, and shut up the house seven days:
[39] And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and
shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of
the house;
[40] Then the priest shall command that they take away the
stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an
unclean place without the city:
[41] And he shall cause the house to be scraped within
round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape
off without the city into an unclean place:
[42] And they shall take other stones, and put them in the
place of those stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall
plaister the house.
[43] And if the plague come again, and break out in the
house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after he
hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;
[44] Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if
the plague be spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in
the house: it is unclean.
[45] And he shall break down the house, the stones of it,
and the timber thereof, and all the morter of the house; and he
shall carry them forth out of the city into an unclean place.
[46] Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while
that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.
[47] And he that lieth in the house shall wash his
clothes; and he that eateth in the house shall wash his
clothes.
[48] And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it,
and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the
house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce the house
clean, because the plague is healed.
[49] And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and
cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
[50] And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen
vessel over running water:
[51] And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and
the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of
the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house
seven times:
[52] And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the
bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and
with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the
scarlet:
[53] But he shall let go the living bird out of the city
into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it
shall be clean.
[54] This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy,
and scall,
[55] And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
[56] And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright
spot:
[57] To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean:
this is the law of leprosy.
