1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
2 This is the rite for a leper, when he is to be cleansed. He shall be brought to the priest, “This shall be the law of the leprous person for the day of his cleansing. He shall be brought to the priest, “These are the regulations for any diseased person at the time of their ceremonial cleansing, when they are brought to the priest:
3 who, departing from the camp, when he has found the leprosy to be cleansed, and the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall look. Then, if the case of leprous disease is healed in the leprous person, The priest is to go outside the camp and examine them. If they have been healed of their defiling skin disease,
4 shall instruct him who is to be purified to offer for himself two living sparrows, which it is lawful to eat, and cedar wood, and vermillion, and hyssop. the priest shall command them to take for him who is to be cleansed two live clean birds and cedarwood and scarlet yarn and hyssop. the priest shall order that two live clean birds and some cedar wood, scarlet yarn and hyssop be brought for the person to be cleansed.
5 And he shall order that one of the sparrows be immolated in an earthen vessel over living waters. And the priest shall command them to kill one of the birds in an earthenware vessel over fresh water. Then the priest shall order that one of the birds be killed over fresh water in a clay pot.
6 But the other living one, with the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, he shall dip in the blood of the immolated sparrow. He shall take the live bird with the cedarwood and the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, and dip them and the live bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water. He is then to take the live bird and dip it, together with the cedar wood, the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, into the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water.
7 And he shall sprinkle him who is to be cleansed seven times, so that he may be purified justly. And he shall release the living sparrow, so that it may fly away into the field. And he shall sprinkle it seven times on him who is to be cleansed of the leprous disease. Then he shall pronounce him clean and shall let the living bird go into the open field. Seven times he shall sprinkle the one to be cleansed of the defiling disease, and then pronounce them clean. After that, he is to release the live bird in the open fields.
8 And when the man will have washed his clothes, he shall shave all the hair from his body, and he shall be washed with water. And having been purified, he shall enter into the camp, only to this extent: that he may remain outside his own tent for seven days. 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. And after that he may come into the camp, but live outside his tent seven days. “The person to be cleansed must wash their clothes, shave off all their hair and bathe with water; then they will be ceremonially clean. After this they may come into the camp, but they must stay outside their tent for seven days.
9 And on the seventh day he shall shave the hair of his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, as well as the hair of his entire body. And having washed his clothes again, and his body, And on the seventh day he shall shave off all his hair from his head, his beard, and his eyebrows. He shall shave off all his hair, and then he shall wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and he shall be clean. On the seventh day they must shave off all their hair; they must shave their head, their beard, their eyebrows and the rest of their hair. They must wash their clothes and bathe themselves with water, and they will be clean.
10 on the eighth day, he shall take two immaculate lambs, and a one-year-old female sheep without blemish, and three tenths of fine wheat flour, which has been sprinkled with oil, as a sacrifice, and separately, one twelfth hin of oil. “And on the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish, and a grain offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, and one log of oil. “On the eighth day they must bring two male lambs and one ewe lamb a year old, each without defect, along with three-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, and one log of oil.
11 And when the priest purifying the man has presented him and all these things in the sight of the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, And the priest who cleanses him shall set the man who is to be cleansed and these things before the LORD, at the entrance of the tent of meeting. The priest who pronounces them clean shall present both the one to be cleansed and their offerings before the LORD at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
12 he shall take a lamb and offer it for transgression, with the twelfth hin of oil. And having offered all these before the Lord, And the priest shall take one of the male lambs and offer it for a guilt offering, along with the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD. “Then the priest is to take one of the male lambs and offer it as a guilt offering, along with the log of oil; he shall wave them before the LORD as a wave offering.
13 he shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is usually immolated with the holocaust, that is, in the holy place. For just as with the one for sin, so also the victim for transgression belongs to the priest. It is the Holy of holies. And he shall kill the lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of the sanctuary. For the guilt offering, like the sin offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy. He is to slaughter the lamb in the sanctuary area where the sin offering and the burnt offering are slaughtered. Like the sin offering, the guilt offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.
14 And taking some of the blood of the victim, which was immolated for transgression, the priest shall place it upon the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and likewise the foot. The priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. The priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot.
15 And he shall send some of the twelfth hin of oil into his own left hand, Then the priest shall take some of the log of oil and pour it into the palm of his own left hand The priest shall then take some of the log of oil, pour it in the palm of his own left hand,
16 and he shall dip his right finger in it, and he shall sprinkle it in the sight of the Lord seven times. and dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand and sprinkle some oil with his finger seven times before the LORD. dip his right forefinger into the oil in his palm, and with his finger sprinkle some of it before the LORD seven times.
17 But the oil which remains in his left hand, he shall pour over the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand as well as the foot, and upon the blood which was shed for transgression, And some of the oil that remains in his hand the priest shall put on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering. The priest is to put some of the oil remaining in his palm on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.
18 and upon his head. And the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed. Then the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD. The rest of the oil in his palm the priest shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed and make atonement for them before the LORD.
19 And he shall pray for him in the sight of the Lord, and he shall accomplish the sacrifice on behalf of sin. Then he shall immolate the holocaust, The priest shall offer the sin offering, to make atonement for him who is to be cleansed from his uncleanness. And afterward he shall kill the burnt offering. “Then the priest is to sacrifice the sin offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from their uncleanness. After that, the priest shall slaughter the burnt offering
20 and place it upon the altar with its libations, and the man will be duly cleansed. And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. Thus the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean. and offer it on the altar, together with the grain offering, and make atonement for them, and they will be clean.
21 But if he is poor, and his hand is not able to find what has been said, he shall take a lamb as an offering for transgression, so that the priest may pray for him, and a tenth part of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, as a sacrifice, and a twelfth hin of oil, “But if he is poor and cannot afford so much, then he shall take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and a log of oil; “If, however, they are poor and cannot afford these, they must take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make atonement for them, together with a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of oil,
22 and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, of which one may be for sin, and the other as a holocaust. also two turtledoves or two pigeons, whichever he can afford. The one shall be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering. and two doves or two young pigeons, such as they can afford, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
23 And he shall offer them on the eighth day of his purification to the priest at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony in the sight of the Lord. And on the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the entrance of the tent of meeting, before the LORD. “On the eighth day they must bring them for their cleansing to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting, before the LORD.
24 And he, receiving the lamb for transgression, and the twelfth hin of oil, shall lift them up together. And the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD. The priest is to take the lamb for the guilt offering, together with the log of oil, and wave them before the LORD as a wave offering.
25 And when the lamb has been immolated, he shall place some of its blood upon the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, as well as the foot. And he shall kill the lamb of the guilt offering. And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. He shall slaughter the lamb for the guilt offering and take some of its blood and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot.
26 Yet truly, he shall send part of the oil into his own left hand, And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand, The priest is to pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand,
27 and dipping the finger of his right hand in it, he shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord. and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD. and with his right forefinger sprinkle some of the oil from his palm seven times before the LORD.
28 And he shall touch the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and the thumb of his right hand, as well as the foot, in the place of the blood which was shed for transgression. And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, in the place where the blood of the guilt offering was put. Some of the oil in his palm he is to put on the same places he put the blood of the guilt offering—on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot.
29 But the remaining part of the oil which is in his left hand, he shall send upon the head of the one being purified, to appease the Lord on his behalf. And the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD. The rest of the oil in his palm the priest shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for them before the LORD.
30 And he shall offer a turtledove or a young pigeon, And he shall offer, of the turtledoves or pigeons, whichever he can afford, Then he shall sacrifice the doves or the young pigeons, such as the person can afford,
31 one for transgression, and the other as a holocaust, with their libations. one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, along with a grain offering. And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for him who is being cleansed. one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, together with the grain offering. In this way the priest will make atonement before the LORD on behalf of the one to be cleansed.”
32 This is the sacrifice of a leper, who is not able to obtain all of the things concerning his cleansing. This is the law for him in whom is a case of leprous disease, who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing.” These are the regulations for anyone who has a defiling skin disease and who cannot afford the regular offerings for their cleansing.
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying: The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
34 When you will have entered into the land of Canaan, which I will give to you as a possession, if there is the mark of leprosy in a building, “When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for a possession, and I put a case of leprous disease in a house in the land of your possession, “When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your possession, and I put a spreading mold in a house in that land,
35 he whose house it is shall go and report to the priest, saying: “It seems to me that the mark of leprosy is in my house.” then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘There seems to me to be some case of disease in my house.’ the owner of the house must go and tell the priest, ‘I have seen something that looks like a defiling mold in my house.’
36 And he shall instruct them to carry all things out of the house, before he would enter it and see whether it is leprosy, lest all that is in the house become unclean. And after this, he shall enter to examine the leprosy of the house. Then the priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest goes to examine the disease, lest all that is in the house be declared unclean. And afterward the priest shall go in to see the house. The priest is to order the house to be emptied before he goes in to examine the mold, so that nothing in the house will be pronounced unclean. After this the priest is to go in and inspect the house.
37 And when he will have seen in its walls something like little hollows, deformed with paleness or redness, and lower than the remaining surface, And he shall examine the disease. And if the disease is in the walls of the house with greenish or reddish spots, and if it appears to be deeper than the surface, He is to examine the mold on the walls, and if it has greenish or reddish depressions that appear to be deeper than the surface of the wall,
38 he shall exit by the door of the house, and immediately close it up for seven days. then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house and shut up the house seven days. the priest shall go out the doorway of the house and close it up for seven days.
39 And returning on the seventh day, he shall examine it. If he finds that the leprosy has spread, And the priest shall come again on the seventh day, and look. If the disease has spread in the walls of the house, On the seventh day the priest shall return to inspect the house. If the mold has spread on the walls,
40 he shall order the stones in which the leprosy is, to be dug out and cast outside the city in an unclean place, then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the disease and throw them into an unclean place outside the city. he is to order that the contaminated stones be torn out and thrown into an unclean place outside the town.
41 and that the house be scraped on the inside all around, and that the dust of the scrapings be scattered outside the city in an unclean place, And he shall have the inside of the house scraped all around, and the plaster that they scrape off they shall pour out in an unclean place outside the city. He must have all the inside walls of the house scraped and the material that is scraped off dumped into an unclean place outside the town.
42 and that other stones be put back, in place of those which had been taken away, and that the house be plastered with other mortar. Then they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and he shall take other plaster and plaster the house. Then they are to take other stones to replace these and take new clay and plaster the house.
43 But if, after the stones have been dug out, and the dust wiped away, and it is plastered with other clay, “If the disease breaks out again in the house, after he has taken out the stones and scraped the house and plastered it, “If the defiling mold reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house scraped and plastered,
44 the priest, upon entering, will have seen that the leprosy has returned, and that the walls are sprinkled with spots, then it is a persistent leprosy and the house is unclean. then the priest shall go and look. And if the disease has spread in the house, it is a persistent leprous disease in the house; it is unclean. the priest is to go and examine it and, if the mold has spread in the house, it is a persistent defiling mold; the house is unclean.
45 And so they shall promptly destroy it, and shall cast its stones and timber, and also all the dust, outside the town in an unclean place. And he shall break down the house, its stones and timber and all the plaster of the house, and he shall carry them out of the city to an unclean place. It must be torn down—its stones, timbers and all the plaster—and taken out of the town to an unclean place.
46 Whoever enters into the house when it is closed up shall be unclean until evening. Moreover, whoever enters the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening, “Anyone who goes into the house while it is closed up will be unclean till evening.
47 And whoever will have slept in it, or eaten anything, shall wash his clothes. and whoever sleeps in the house shall wash his clothes, and whoever eats in the house shall wash his clothes. Anyone who sleeps or eats in the house must wash their clothes.
48 But if the priest, upon entering, will have seen that the leprosy has not spread in the house, after it had been newly plastered, he shall purify it, restoring it to health. “But if the priest comes and looks, and if the disease has not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, for the disease is healed. “But if the priest comes to examine it and the mold has not spread after the house has been plastered, he shall pronounce the house clean, because the defiling mold is gone.
49 And for its purification, he shall take two sparrows, and cedar wood, and vermillion, as well as hyssop, And for the cleansing of the house he shall take two small birds, with cedarwood and scarlet yarn and hyssop, To purify the house he is to take two birds and some cedar wood, scarlet yarn and hyssop.
50 and, having immolated one sparrow in an earthen vessel over living waters, and shall kill one of the birds in an earthenware vessel over fresh water He shall kill one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.
51 he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living sparrow, and he shall dip all these in the blood of the immolated sparrow, and also in the living water, and he shall sprinkle the house seven times. and shall take the cedarwood and the hyssop and the scarlet yarn, along with the live bird, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed and in the fresh water and sprinkle the house seven times. Then he is to take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn and the live bird, dip them into the blood of the dead bird and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times.
52 And he shall purify it as much with the blood of the sparrow as with the living water, and with the living sparrow, and the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the vermillion. Thus he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird and with the fresh water and with the live bird and with the cedarwood and hyssop and scarlet yarn. He shall purify the house with the bird’s blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop and the scarlet yarn.
53 And when he has released the sparrow to fly freely away into the field, he shall pray for the house, and it shall be justly cleansed. And he shall let the live bird go out of the city into the open country. So he shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.” Then he is to release the live bird in the open fields outside the town. In this way he will make atonement for the house, and it will be clean.”
54 This is the law of every kind of leprosy and plague: This is the law for any case of leprous disease: for an itch, These are the regulations for any defiling skin disease, for a sore,
55 of the leprosy of garments and houses, for leprous disease in a garment or in a house, for defiling molds in fabric or in a house,
56 of scars and erupting pustules, of a shining spot, when the appearance is also variegated, and for a swelling or an eruption or a spot, and for a swelling, a rash or a shiny spot,
57 so that it can be known at what time a thing is clean or unclean. to show when it is unclean and when it is clean. This is the law for leprous disease. to determine when something is clean or unclean. These are the regulations for defiling skin diseases and defiling molds.
