46 Moreover, he who enters the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening. 47 And he who lies in the house shall wash his clothes; and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes. 48 And if the priest shall come in and look upon it, and, behold, the plague has not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague has been healed. 49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds alive and clean and cedar wood and hyssop and scarlet material; 50 And the priest shall command and they shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water; 51 And he shall take the other living bird, the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet material and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed 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 live bird and with the cedar wood and with hyssop and with the scarlet material; 53 But he shall let the live bird fly out of the town into the open field and make an atonement for the house; and it shall be clean. 54 This law shall be for all manner of plagues of leprosy 55 And for the plague of leprosy in a garment and of a house 56 And for a swelling and for a scab and for a shiny spot; 57 To distinguish between clean, and unclean; this is the law of leprosy.
