48 |But if the priest comes in to conduct an examination and determines that the contagion has not spread throughout the house after the house has been repaired, then the priest may declare the house clean, because the contagion has been cleansed. 49 In order to cleanse the house, he is to take two birds, some cedar wood, two crimson threads, and some hyssop. 50 Then he is to slaughter one bird on an earthen vessel over flowing water. 51 He is to take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the two crimson threads, and the live bird, and dip them in the blood of the slaughtered bird over flowing water. Then he is to sprinkle the house seven times. 52 He is to clean the house with the blood of the bird over flowing water, including cleansing the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the crimson thread. 53 Then he is to send the bird away, outside the city, facing the fields, to make atonement for the house. Then it is to be considered clean. Leviticus 14:48-53, Intl. Standard Version. Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.
