Leviticus 14:1-32 - Cleansing Of Skin Diseases

¹ And LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² This shall be the law of the man with a leprous disease in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the priest, ³ and the priest shall go forth out of the camp. And the priest shall look, and, behold, if a leprous disease be healed in the man with a leprous disease, ⁴ then the priest shall command to take two living clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop for him who is to be cleansed. ⁵ And the priest shall command to kill one of the birds 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 seven times upon him who is to be cleansed from the leprous disease, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird go into the open field. ⁸ And he who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water, and he shall be clean.

For as the sin-offering is the priest's, so is the trespass-offering; it is most holy. ¹⁴ And the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass-offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him who 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 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 LORD. ¹⁷ And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand the priest shall put upon the tip of the right ear of him who 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 t ¹⁸ And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put upon the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before LORD. ¹⁹ And the priest shall offer the sin-offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness, and afterward he shall kill the burnt-offering. ²⁰ And the priest shall offer the burnt-offering and the meal-offering upon the altar, and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

²¹ And if he is poor, and cannot get so much, then he shall take one he-lamb for a trespass-offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one tenth part [of an ephah] of fine flour mingled with oil for a meal-offering, and a lo ²² and two turtle-doves, 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 on the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the tent of meeting, before 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 LORD. ²⁵ And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass-offering. And the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass-offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and 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 LORD. ²⁸ And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him who 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 ²⁹ And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put upon the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before LORD. ³⁰ And he shall offer one of the turtle-doves, or of the young pigeons, such as he is able to 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 meal-offering, and the priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before LORD. ³² This is the law of him in whom is a leprous disease, who is not able to get [what pertains] to his cleansing.
