Leviticus 14
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And LORD JEHOVAH spoke with Moshe and said to him: 2“This shall be the law of the leper in the day when he is cleansed: he shall be brought to the Priest, 3And the Priest will go forth outside of the camp and the Priest shall see if the plague of the leprosy of the man has been cured; 4The Priest shall command and they shall bring two pure living sparrows and wood of cedar and dye of scarlet and hyssop for him who is cleansed. 5And the Priest shall command and shall slaughter one sparrow in the vessel of a potter over a fountain of waters: 6And he shall take that other living sparrow and wood of cedar and dye of scarlet and hyssop and he shall dye them and the living sparrow in the blood of the sparrow that was slain above the waters of the fountain: 7And he shall sprinkle on him who is cleansed from leprosy seven times and he shall be declared clean and shall let the living sparrow fly before the face of the field. 8And he who is cleansed shall wash his clothes and he shall shave all his hair and he shall bathe in water and he shall be clean, and after this he shall enter the encampment and shall sit outside of the Tabernacle seven days. 9And in the seventh day he shall shave all his hair, his head and his beard and his eyebrows, and he shall shave all his hair and he shall wash his garments and he shall bathe his flesh in water and he shall be clean.

10And in the eighth day he shall take two male lambs that have no defect in them; one lamb, the daughter of a year that has no flaw in it, and three tenths part of a fine meal offering sprinkled with oil and a pint of oil. 11And the Priest who cleansed him shall stand the man who is cleansed and these things before LORD JEHOVAH in the door of the Time Tabernacle: 12And the Priest shall take one lamb in front of LORD JEHOVAH and shall offer it in place of the sin, and the pint of oil, and the Priest shall dedicate them an offering before LORD JEHOVAH: 13And he shall kill the lamb in the place where he killed sin and burnt peace offering in the holy place, because that is in place of sin; it is a gift of the Priest and it is Holy of Holy things: 14And the Priest shall take from the blood of the sin offering and the Priest shall sprinkle it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and upon the big toe of his right foot: 15And the Priest shall take one pint of oil and shall pour it on the left hand of the Priest: 16And the Priest shall dip his right finger out of the oil that in his left hand and the Priest shall sprinkle some of the oil on his finger seven times before LORD JEHOVAH: 17And any excess of the oil that is in the hand of the Priest, the Priest shall sprinkle on the lobe of the right ear of him who is being cleansed and upon the thumb of his right hand and upon the big toe of his right foot at the place of the blood of the sin offering: 18And anything that is left of the oil in the hand of the Priest he shall put on the head of him who is cleansed and the Priest shall atone for him before LORD JEHOVAH. 19And the Priest shall offer an offering for sin and shall atone for him who is being cleansed from his defilement and after this he shall kill the burnt peace offering: 20And the Priest shall offer up burning peace offering and fine wheat flour on the altar and the Priest shall atone for him and he shall be clean.

21And if he is poor and there is not enough in his hands, he shall take one lamb for the sake of sin for an offering to make atonement for him, and one tenth seah of fine flour sprinkled with oil for the offering, and one pint of oil; 22And two pigeons or two young doves, whatever he can do with his hands, and one will be for the sake of sin and one for burning. 23And he shall bring them the eighth day to the Priest, to purify him at the door of the Time Tent before LORD JEHOVAH. 24And the Priest shall take one lamb and a pint of oil and the Priest shall dedicate them as a dedication before LORD JEHOVAH: 25And he shall slaughter the lamb of sin, and the Priest shall take of the blood of the sin and he shall sprinkle on the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of the right foot: 26And the Priest shall pour some oil in the left hand of the Priest: 27And the Priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some oil that is in his left hand seven times before LORD JEHOVAH: 28And the Priest shall sprinkle some oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed and upon the thumb of his right hand and upon the big toe of his right foot in the place of the blood of the sin offering: 29And anything that is left of the oil in the hand of the Priest he shall sprinkle on the head of him who is cleansed and he shall atone for him before LORD JEHOVAH. 30And he shall offer some pigeons or some young doves of anything that he has in his hands; 31And one will be in the place of sin and one for burning on the meal offering and the Priest shall atone before LORD JEHOVAH for him who is cleansed. 32This is the law of him who has in him a plague of leprosy and does not have enough in his hands to be cleansed."

33And LORD JEHOVAH spoke with Moshe and with Ahron and said to them,

34“When you enter the land of Canaan that I give to you as an inheritance and I shall put a plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your inheritance; 35The owner of the house will come and he will tell the Priest and will say to him, 'Something like a plague of leprosy has appeared to me in the house', 36The Priest shall command and they shall empty the house before he shall enter; the Priest shall look at the plague that no one will be defiled who is in the house, and after this the Priest shall enter: 37And he shall look at the plague and behold, the plague is in the wall of the house, scales of green or of red, and he sees them deeper than the plaster wall; 38The Priest will come forth from the house and stand in the door and shall seclude that house seven days: 39And the Priest shall return in the seventh day and he shall see if the plague has changed in the wall of the house; 40The Priest shall command and they shall take out the stones that have the plague of leprosy in them and they will cast them outside of the town in a defiled place: 41And they shall scrape that house from within all around and shall cast the dust that they scrape outside of the city into a defiled place: 42And they shall take other stones and shall bring the others in place of the stones and dust; they shall take them and they shall plaster the house.

43And if the plague will change and will grow in the house after the stones are taken and after the house is scraped and plastered, 44The Priest shall enter and shall look; if the plague has changed in the house, the leprosy is severe in the house; it is defiled. 45They shall destroy the house, its stones and its wood and all of the dust, and they shall take it outside of the city to a defiled region and will burn it in fire. 46And he who enters the house any day that it is secluded shall be defiled until evening. 47And whoever sleeps in the house shall wash his garments and he who eats in the house shall wash his garments.

48And if the Priest shall enter and will see that the plague has not changed in the house after they plastered the house, the Priest shall declare that house clean because the plague is healed. 49And he shall take for the cleansing of the house two living pure sparrows, and wood of cedar and hyssop and dye of scarlet: 50And the Priest shall order and they shall slaughter one sparrow in a vessel of a potter over a fountain of waters: 51And he shall take the other bird that is living and the wood of cedar and hyssop and dye of scarlet and shall dip them with these in the blood of the bird that is killed and in living water, and he shall sprinkle it on that house seven times: 52And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird and with living water and with the living bird and with the wood of cedar and with hyssop and with dye of scarlet: 53And the living bird shall fly outside of the town before the face of the field and shall atone for the house and it shall be clean.

54This shall be the law for all plagues of leprosy, 55And for the plague of leprosy of a cloak and of a house, 56And for a sore and for a scab and for a shiny spot, 57And to distinguish between defiled and pure; this is the law of leprosy."
