22
also two turtledoves or two pigeons, such as he can afford, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
23
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;
24
and the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering and the log of oil, and the priest shall raise them as an elevation offering before the Lord.
25
The priest shall slaughter the lamb of the guilt offering and shall 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, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot.
26
The priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand,
27
and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord.
28
The priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and the big toe of the right foot, where the blood of the guilt offering was placed.
29
The rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement on his behalf before the Lord.
30
And he shall offer, of the turtledoves or pigeons such as he can afford,
31
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 on behalf of the one being cleansed.
32
This is the ritual for the one who has a leprous disease, who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing.
33
The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
34
When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for a possession, and I put a leprous disease in a house in the land of your possession,
35
the owner of the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, "There seems to me to be some sort of disease in my house."
36
The priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest goes to examine the disease, or all that is in the house will become unclean; and afterward the priest shall go in to inspect the house.
37
He shall examine the disease; 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,
38
the priest shall go outside to the door of the house and shut up the house seven days.
39
The priest shall come again on the seventh day and make an inspection; if the disease has spread in the walls of the house,
40
the priest shall command that the stones in which the disease appears be taken out and thrown into an unclean place outside the city.
41
He shall have the inside of the house scraped thoroughly, and the plaster that is scraped off shall be dumped in an unclean place outside the city.
42
They shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and take other plaster and plaster the house.
