39 And let the preast come againe the seuenth daye ad se it: yf the plage be encreased in the walles of the housse,

40 let the preast comaunde the to take awaye the stones in which the plage is, ad let the cast the in a foule place without the citie,

41 ad scrape the house within rounde aboute, ad poure out the dust without the citie in a foule place.

42 And let them take other stones and put them in the places of those stones, and other morter: ad playster the housse with all.

43 Yf now the plage come agayne ad breake out in the housse, after that they haue taken awaye the stones and scraped the housse, and after that the housse is playsterd anew:

44 let the preast come and se it. And yf then he perceaue that the plage hath eate further in the housse, then it is a fretynge leprosye that is in the housse ad it is vncleane.

45 Then they shall breake doune the housse: both stones, tymbre ad all the morter of the housse, and carye it out of the citye vnto a foule place.

46 Moreouer he that goeth in to the housse all the whyle that it is shett vp, shalbe vncleane vntyll nighte.

47 And he that slepeth in the housse shall wasshe his clothes, and he also that eateth in the housse shall wasshe hys clothes.

48 But and yf the preast come and se that the plage hath sprede no futher in the housse after that it is new playsterd, the let him make it cleane for the plage is healed.

49 And let him take to clense the housse with all: two birdes, cypresse wodd, ad purple clothe ad ysope.

50 And let him kyll one of the byrdes ouer an erthen vessel of runnynge water,

51 ad take the cipresse wodd, the ysope, the purple ad the lyuynge byrde, ad dyppe them in the bloude of the slayne byrde and in the runninge water, and sprinkle apon the housse seuen tymes,

52 and clense the housse with the bloude of the byrde, and with the runninge water, ad with the lyuyng byrde, ad with the cypresse wodd, ad the ysope ad the purple clothe

53 And he shall lett the lyuynge byrde flee oute off the towne in to the wylde feldes, and so make an attonement for the housse, and it shalbe cleane.

54 This is the lawe of all maner plage of leprosye and breakynge o ut,

55 and of the leprosye off clothe and housse:

56 and of rysynges, scabbes and glysterynge white,

57 to teache when a thinge is vncleane or cleane. This is the lawe off leprosye.
