Levítico 14

Bíblia Portuguesa Mundial

1O SENHOR falou a Moisés, dizendo:

2“Esta será a lei do leproso no dia da sua purificação: Ele será levado ao sacerdote,

3e o sacerdote sairá do acampamento. O sacerdote o examinará. Eis que, se a praga da lepra estiver curada no leproso,

4então o sacerdote ordenará que se peguem para aquele que será purificado duas aves vivas e puras, madeira de cedro, fio escarlate e hissopo.

5O sacerdote ordenará que matem uma das aves em uma vasilha de barro sobre água corrente.

6Quanto à ave viva, ele a pegará, junto com a madeira de cedro, o fio escarlate e o hissopo, e os mergulhará, com a ave viva, no sangue da ave que foi morta sobre a água corrente.

7Ele aspergirá sete vezes sobre aquele que será purificado da lepra, e o declarará puro, e soltará a ave viva no campo aberto.

8“Aquele que será purificado lavará as suas roupas, raspará todo o seu pelo e se banhará em água; e ficará puro. Depois disso, ele entrará no acampamento, mas morará fora da sua tenda por sete dias.

9Será no sétimo dia que ele raspará todo o cabelo da sua cabeça, a sua barba e as suas sobrancelhas. Ele raspará todo o seu pelo. Ele lavará as suas roupas e banhará o seu corpo em água. Então, ele ficará puro.

10“No oitavo dia, ele pegará dois cordeiros sem defeito, uma cordeira de um ano sem defeito, três décimos de um efa de farinha fina para uma oferta de cereais, misturada com óleo, e um logue de óleo.

11O sacerdote que o purifica apresentará o homem que será purificado, e essas coisas, perante o SENHOR, à porta da Tenda do Encontro.

12“O sacerdote pegará um dos cordeiros e o oferecerá como oferta pela culpa, com o logue de óleo, e os moverá como oferta movida perante o SENHOR.

13Ele matará o cordeiro no lugar onde matam a oferta pelo pecado e o holocausto, no lugar do santuário; pois assim como a oferta pelo pecado pertence ao sacerdote, também a oferta pela culpa. É santíssima.

14O sacerdote pegará um pouco do sangue da oferta pela culpa, e o sacerdote o colocará na ponta da orelha direita daquele que será purificado, no polegar da sua mão direita e no dedão do seu pé direito.

15O sacerdote pegará um pouco do logue de óleo e o derramará na palma da sua própria mão esquerda.

16O sacerdote mergulhará o seu dedo direito no óleo que está na sua mão esquerda, e aspergirá um pouco do óleo com o seu dedo sete vezes perante o SENHOR.

17O sacerdote colocará um pouco do restante do óleo que está na sua mão na ponta da orelha direita daquele que será purificado, no polegar da sua mão direita e no dedão do seu pé direito, sobre o sangue da oferta pela culpa.

18O restante do óleo que está na mão do sacerdote, ele colocará sobre a cabeça daquele que será purificado, e o sacerdote fará expiação por ele perante o SENHOR.

19“O sacerdote oferecerá a oferta pelo pecado e fará expiação por aquele que será purificado por causa da sua impureza. Depois, ele matará o holocausto;

20então o sacerdote oferecerá o holocausto e a oferta de cereais sobre o altar. O sacerdote fará expiação por ele, e ele ficará puro.

21“Se ele for pobre e não tiver recursos para tanto, então pegará um cordeiro para oferta pela culpa a ser movida, para fazer expiação por ele, e um décimo de um efa de farinha fina misturada com óleo para uma oferta de cereais, e um logue de óleo;

22e duas rolinhas, ou dois pombinhos, conforme os seus recursos; e um será oferta pelo pecado, e o outro, holocausto.

23“No oitavo dia, ele os trará para a sua purificação ao sacerdote, à porta da Tenda do Encontro, perante o SENHOR.

24O sacerdote pegará o cordeiro da oferta pela culpa e o logue de óleo, e o sacerdote os moverá como oferta movida perante o SENHOR.

25Ele matará o cordeiro da oferta pela culpa. O sacerdote pegará um pouco do sangue da oferta pela culpa e o colocará na ponta da orelha direita daquele que será purificado, no polegar da sua mão direita e no dedão do seu pé direito.

26O sacerdote derramará um pouco do óleo na palma da sua própria mão esquerda;

27e o sacerdote aspergirá com o seu dedo direito um pouco do óleo que está na sua mão esquerda sete vezes perante o SENHOR.

28Então o sacerdote colocará um pouco do óleo que está na sua mão na ponta da orelha direita daquele que será purificado, no polegar da sua mão direita e no dedão do seu pé direito, no lugar do sangue da oferta pela culpa.

29O restante do óleo que está na mão do sacerdote, ele colocará sobre a cabeça daquele que será purificado, para fazer expiação por ele perante o SENHOR.

30Ele oferecerá uma das rolinhas, ou dos pombinhos, conforme os seus recursos,

31daquilo que ele puder providenciar, um para oferta pelo pecado, e o outro para holocausto, junto com a oferta de cereais. O sacerdote fará expiação por aquele que será purificado perante o SENHOR.”

32Esta é a lei para aquele em quem há a praga da lepra, que não tem recursos para o sacrifício da sua purificação.

33O SENHOR falou a Moisés e a Arão, dizendo:

34“Quando vocês entrarem na terra de Canaã, que eu lhes dou por propriedade, e eu colocar uma praga de mofo que se espalha em uma casa na terra da propriedade de vocês,

35então o dono da casa virá e informará ao sacerdote, dizendo: ‘Parece-me haver algum tipo de praga na casa.’

36O sacerdote ordenará que esvaziem a casa, antes que o sacerdote entre para examinar a praga, para que tudo o que está na casa não se torne impuro. Depois, o sacerdote entrará para inspecionar a casa.

37Ele examinará a praga; e eis que, se a praga estiver nas paredes da casa com manchas afundadas, esverdeadas ou avermelhadas, e parecer mais profunda que a parede,

38então o sacerdote sairá da casa até a porta da casa, e trancará a casa por sete dias.

39O sacerdote voltará no sétimo dia e olhará. Se a praga tiver se espalhado nas paredes da casa,

40então o sacerdote ordenará que arranquem as pedras nas quais está a praga, e as lancem em um lugar impuro fora da cidade.

41Ele mandará raspar a casa por dentro, ao redor de tudo. Eles derramarão a argamassa que rasparam fora da cidade, em um lugar impuro.

42Eles pegarão outras pedras e as colocarão no lugar daquelas pedras; e ele pegará outra argamassa e rebocará a casa.

43“Se a praga voltar e brotar na casa depois que ele tiver arrancado as pedras, e depois de ter raspado a casa, e depois de ter sido rebocada,

44então o sacerdote entrará e olhará; e eis que, se a praga tiver se espalhado na casa, é um mofo destrutivo na casa. Ela está impura.

45Ele derrubará a casa, as suas pedras, a sua madeira e toda a argamassa da casa. Ele as levará para fora da cidade, para um lugar impuro.

46“Além disso, aquele que entrar na casa enquanto ela estiver trancada ficará impuro até a tarde.

47Aquele que se deitar na casa lavará as suas roupas; e aquele que comer na casa lavará as suas roupas.

48“Se o sacerdote entrar e a examinar, e eis que a praga não se espalhou na casa, depois que a casa foi rebocada, então o sacerdote declarará a casa pura, porque a praga está curada.

49Para purificar a casa, ele pegará duas aves, madeira de cedro, fio escarlate e hissopo.

50Ele matará uma das aves em uma vasilha de barro sobre água corrente.

51Ele pegará a madeira de cedro, o hissopo, o fio escarlate e a ave viva, e os mergulhará no sangue da ave morta e na água corrente, e aspergirá a casa sete vezes.

52Ele purificará a casa com o sangue da ave, com a água corrente, com a ave viva, com a madeira de cedro, com o hissopo e com o fio escarlate;

53mas soltará a ave viva fora da cidade, no campo aberto. Assim ele fará expiação pela casa; e ela ficará pura.”

54Esta é a lei para qualquer praga de lepra, e para a tinha,

55e para o mofo destrutivo de uma roupa, e para uma casa,

56e para um inchaço, e para uma erupção, e para uma mancha brilhante;

57para ensinar quando é impuro e quando é puro. Esta é a lei da lepra.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

2Esta será la ley del leproso cuando se limpiare: Será traído al sacerdote:

3Y el sacerdote saldrá fuera del real; y mirará el sacerdote, y viendo que está sana la plaga de la lepra del leproso,

4El sacerdote mandará luego que se tomen para el que se purifica dos avecillas vivas, limpias, y palo de cedro, y grana, é hisopo;

5Y mandará el sacerdote matar la una avecilla en un vaso de barro sobre aguas vivas;

6Después tomará la avecilla viva, y el palo de cedro, y la grana, y el hisopo, y lo mojará con la avecilla viva en la sangre de la avecilla muerta sobre las aguas vivas:

7Y rociará siete veces sobre el que se purifica de la lepra, y le dará por limpio; y soltará la avecilla viva sobre la haz del campo.

8Y el que se purifica lavará sus vestidos, y raerá todos sus pelos, y se ha de lavar con agua, y será limpio: y después entrará en el real, y morará fuera de su tienda siete días.

9Y será, que al séptimo día raerá todos sus pelos, su cabeza, y su barba, y las cejas de sus ojos; finalmente, raerá todo su pelo, y lavará sus vestidos, y lavará su carne en aguas, y será limpio.

10Y el día octavo tomará dos corderos sin defecto, y una cordera de un año sin tacha; y tres décimas de flor de harina para presente, amasada con aceite, y un log de aceite.

11Y el sacerdote que le purifica presentará con aquellas cosas al que se ha de limpiar delante de Jehová, á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio:

12Y tomará el sacerdote el un cordero, y ofrecerálo por la culpa, con el log de aceite, y lo mecerá como ofrenda agitada delante de Jehová:

13Y degollará el cordero en el lugar donde degüellan la víctima por el pecado y el holocausto, en el lugar del santuario: porque como la víctima por el pecado, así también la víctima por la culpa es del sacerdote: es cosa muy sagrada.

14Y tomará el sacerdote de la sangre de la víctima por la culpa, y pondrá el sacerdote sobre la ternilla de la oreja derecha del que se purifica, y sobre el pulgar de su mano derecha, y sobre el pulgar de su pie derecho.

15Asimismo tomará el sacerdote del log de aceite, y echará sobre la palma de su mano izquierda:

16Y mojará su dedo derecho en el aceite que tiene en su mano izquierda, y esparcirá del aceite con su dedo siete veces delante de Jehová:

17Y de lo que quedare del aceite que tiene en su mano, pondrá el sacerdote sobre la ternilla de la oreja derecha del que se purifica, y sobre el pulgar de su mano derecha, y sobre el pulgar de su pie derecho, sobre la sangre de la expiación por la culpa:

18Y lo que quedare del aceite que tiene en su mano, pondrá sobre la cabeza del que se purifica: y hará el sacerdote expiación por él delante de Jehová.

19Ofrecerá luego el sacerdote el sacrificio por el pecado, y hará expiación por el que se ha de purificar de su inmundicia, y después degollará el holocausto:

20Y hará subir el sacerdote el holocausto y el presente sobre el altar. Así hará el sacerdote expiación por él, y será limpio.

21Mas si fuere pobre, que no alcanzare su mano á tanto, entonces tomará un cordero para ser ofrecido como ofrenda agitada por la culpa, para reconciliarse, y una décima de flor de harina amasada con aceite para presente, y un log de aceite;

22Y dos tórtolas, ó dos palominos, lo que alcanzare su mano: y el uno será para expiación por el pecado, y el otro para holocausto;

23Las cuales cosas traerá al octavo día de su purificación al sacerdote, á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio delante de Jehová.

24Y el sacerdote tomará el cordero de la expiación por la culpa, y el log de aceite, y mecerálo el sacerdote como ofrenda agitada delante de Jehová;

25Luego degollará el cordero de la culpa, y tomará el sacerdote de la sangre de la culpa, y pondrá sobre la ternilla de la oreja derecha del que se purifica, y sobre el pulgar de su mano derecha, y sobre el pulgar de su pie derecho.

26Y el sacerdote echará del aceite sobre la palma de su mano izquierda;

27Y con su dedo derecho rociará el sacerdote del aceite que tiene en su mano izquierda, siete veces delante de Jehová.

28También pondrá el sacerdote del aceite que tiene en su mano sobre la ternilla de la oreja derecha del que se purifica, y sobre el pulgar de su mano derecha, y sobre el pulgar de su pie derecho, en el lugar de la sangre de la culpa.

29Y lo que sobrare del aceite que el sacerdote tiene en su mano, pondrálo sobre la cabeza del que se purifica, para reconciliarlo delante de Jehová.

30Asimismo ofrecerá la una de las tórtolas, ó de los palominos, lo que alcanzare su mano:

31El uno de lo que alcanzare su mano, en expiación por el pecado, y el otro en holocausto, además del presente: y hará el sacerdote expiación por el que se ha de purificar, delante de Jehová.

32Esta es la ley del que hubiere tenido plaga de lepra, cuya mano no alcanzare lo prescrito para purificarse.

33Y habló Jehová á Moisés y á Aarón, diciendo:

34Cuando hubieres entrado en la tierra de Canaán, la cual yo os doy en posesión, y pusiere yo plaga de lepra en alguna casa de la tierra de vuestra posesión,

35Vendrá aquél cuya fuere la casa, y dará aviso al sacerdote, diciendo: Como plaga ha aparecido en mi casa.

36Entonces mandará el sacerdote, y despejarán la casa antes que el sacerdote entre á mirar la plaga, porque no sea contaminado todo lo que estuviere en la casa: y después el sacerdote entrará á reconocer la casa:

37Y mirará la plaga: y si se vieren manchas en las paredes de la casa, cavernillas verdosas ó rojas, las cuales parecieren más hundidas que la pared,

38El sacerdote saldrá de la casa á la puerta de ella, y cerrará la casa por siete días.

39Y al séptimo día volverá el sacerdote, y mirará: y si la plaga hubiere crecido en las paredes de la casa,

40Entonces mandará el sacerdote, y arrancarán las piedras en que estuviere la plaga, y las echarán fuera de la ciudad, en lugar inmundo:

41Y hará descostrar la casa por dentro alrededor, y derramarán el polvo que descostraren, fuera de la ciudad en lugar inmundo:

42Y tomarán otras piedras, y las pondrán en lugar de las piedras quitadas; y tomarán otro barro, y encostrarán la casa.

43Y si la plaga volviere á reverdecer en aquella casa, después que hizo arrancar las piedras, y descostrar la casa, y después que fué encostrada,

44Entonces el sacerdote entrará y mirará; y si pareciere haberse extendido la plaga en la casa, lepra roedora está en la casa: inmunda es.

45Derribará, por tanto, la tal casa, sus piedras, y sus maderos, y toda la mezcla de la casa; y lo sacará fuera de la ciudad á lugar inmundo.

46Y cualquiera que entrare en aquella casa todos los días que la mandó cerrar, será inmundo hasta la tarde.

47Y el que durmiere en aquella casa, lavará sus vestidos; también el que comiere en la casa, lavará sus vestidos.

48Mas si entrare el sacerdote y mirare, y viere que la plaga no se ha extendido en la casa después que fué encostrada, el sacerdote dará la casa por limpia, porque la plaga ha sanado.

49Entonces tomará para limpiar la casa dos avecillas, y palo de cedro, y grana, é hisopo:

50Y degollará la una avecilla en una vasija de barro sobre aguas vivas:

51Y tomará el palo de cedro, y el hisopo, y la grana, y la avecilla viva, y mojarálo en la sangre de la avecilla muerta y en las aguas vivas, y rociará la casa siete veces:

52Y purificará la casa con la sangre de la avecilla, y con las aguas vivas, y con la avecilla viva, y el palo de cedro, y el hisopo, y la grana:

53Luego soltará la avecilla viva fuera de la ciudad sobre la haz del campo: así hará expiación por la casa, y será limpia.

54Esta es la ley acerca de toda plaga de lepra, y de tiña;

55Y de la lepra del vestido, y de la casa;

56Y acerca de la hinchazón, y de la postilla, y de la mancha blanca:

57Para enseñar cuándo es inmundo, y cuándo limpio. Aquesta es la ley tocante á la lepra.

King James Version

1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:

3And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper;

4Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:

5And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water:

6As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water:

7And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.

8And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be clean: and after that he shall come into the camp, and shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.

9But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall be clean.

10And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil.

11And the priest that maketh him clean shall present the man that is to be made clean, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:

12And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:

13And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for as the sin offering is the priest’s, so is the trespass offering: it is most holy:

14And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot:

15And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand:

16And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD:

17And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering:

18And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD.

19And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering:

20And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering upon the altar: and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

21And if he be poor, and cannot get so much; then he shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him, and one tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log of oil;

22And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.

23And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing unto the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the LORD.

24And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:

25And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot:

26And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left hand:

27And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD:

28And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the trespass offering:

29And the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the LORD.

30And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, such as he can get;

31Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the LORD.

32This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy, whose hand is not able to get that which pertaineth to his cleansing.

33And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

34When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession;

35And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in the house:

36Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that is in the house be not made unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:

37And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, if the plague be in the walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight are lower than the wall;

38Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days:

39And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house;

40Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the city:

41And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an unclean place:

42And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the house.

43And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;

44Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if the plague be spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house: it is unclean.

45And he shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber thereof, and all the morter of the house; and he shall carry them forth out of the city into an unclean place.

46Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.

47And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes; and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.

48And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.

49And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:

50And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water:

51And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times:

52And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet:

53But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.

54This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,

55And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,

56And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot:

57To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean: this is the law of leprosy.

World English Bible

1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2“This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the priest,

3and the priest shall go out of the camp. The priest shall examine him. Behold, if the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper,

4then the priest shall command them to take for him who is to be cleansed two living clean birds, cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop.

5The priest shall command them to kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water.

6As for the living bird, he shall take it, the cedar wood, the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water.

7He shall sprinkle on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird go into the open field.

8“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. After that he shall come into the camp, but shall dwell outside his tent seven days.

9It shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows. He shall shave off all his hair. He shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his body in water. Then he shall be clean.

10“On the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without defect, one ewe lamb a year old without defect, three tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.

11The priest who cleanses him shall set the man who is to be cleansed, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

12“The priest shall take one of the male lambs, and offer him for a trespass offering, with the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.

13He shall kill the male lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of the sanctuary; for as the sin offering is the priest’s, so is the trespass offering. It is most holy.

14The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip 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.

15The priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand.

16The priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD.

17The priest shall put some of the rest of the oil that is in his hand on the tip 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, upon the blood of the trespass offering.

18The rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD.

19“The priest shall offer the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness. Afterward he shall kill the burnt offering;

20then the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meal offering on the altar. The priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

21“If he is poor, and can’t afford so much, then he shall take one male lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a meal offering, and a log of oil;

22and two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to afford; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.

23“On the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, before the LORD.

24The priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.

25He shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering. The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering and put it on the tip 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.

26The priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand;

27and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD.

28Then the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip 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 the place of the blood of the trespass offering.

29The 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.

30He shall offer one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, which ever he is able to afford,

31of the kind he is able to afford, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meal offering. The priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before the LORD.”

32This is the law for him in whom is the plague of leprosy, who is not able to afford the sacrifice for his cleansing.

33The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

34“When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in the land of your possession,

35then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, ‘There seems to me to be some sort of plague in the house.’

36The priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest goes in to examine the plague, that all that is in the house not be made unclean. Afterward the priest shall go in to inspect the house.

37He shall examine the plague; and behold, if the plague is in the walls of the house with hollow streaks, greenish or reddish, and it appears to be deeper than the wall,

38then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days.

39The priest shall come again on the seventh day, and look. If the plague has spread in the walls of the house,

40then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the plague, and cast them into an unclean place outside of the city.

41He shall cause the inside of the house to be scraped all over. They shall pour out the mortar that they scraped off outside of the city into an unclean place.

42They shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.

43“If the plague comes again, and breaks out in the house after he has taken out the stones, and after he has scraped the house, and after it was plastered,

44then the priest shall come in and look; and behold, if the plague has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew in the house. It is unclean.

45He shall break down the house, its stones, and its timber, and all the house’s mortar. He shall carry them out of the city into an unclean place.

46“Moreover he who goes into the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening.

47He who lies down in the house shall wash his clothes; and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes.

48“If the priest shall come in, and examine it, and behold, the plague hasn’t spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.

49To cleanse the house he shall take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop.

50He shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water.

51He shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

52He shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop, and with the scarlet;

53but he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So shall he make atonement for the house; and it shall be clean.”

54This is the law for any plague of leprosy, and for an itch,

55and for the destructive mildew of a garment, and for a house,

56and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot;

57to teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean. This is the law of leprosy.
