Leviticus 14

Common English Bible CEB

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 This will be the Instruction for anyone with skin disease at the time of purification: When it has been reported to the priest,

3 he will go outside the camp. If the priest sees that the person afflicted with skin disease has been healed of the infection,

4 the priest will order that two birds—wild and clean—and cedarwood, crimson yarn, and hyssop be brought for the person who needs purification.

5 The priest will order that one bird be slaughtered over fresh water in a pottery jar.

6 He will then take the other wild bird, along with the cedarwood, crimson yarn, and hyssop, and will dip all of this into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over the fresh water.

7 He will sprinkle the person who needs purification from skin disease seven times and declare that they are clean. Then the priest will release the wild bird into the countryside.

8 The person who needs purification will then wash their clothes, shave off all of their hair, and bathe in water; at that point, they will be clean. After that, they can return to the camp, but they must live outside their tent for seven days.

9 On the seventh day, the person must shave off all their hair again: head, beard, and eyebrows—everything. They must wash their clothes and bathe in water; then they will be clean again.

10 On the eighth day, that person must take two flawless male sheep, one flawless one-year-old ewe, a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of choice flour mixed with oil, and one log of oil.

11 The priest performing the purification will place these and the person needing purification before the LORD at the meeting tent's entrance.

12 The priest will take one of the male sheep and present it as a compensation offering, along with the log of oil, and will lift them as an uplifted offering before the LORD.

13 The priest will slaughter the sheep at the same place where the purification offering and the entirely burned offering are slaughtered: in the holy area. The compensation offering, like the purification offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

14 The priest will take some of the blood from the compensation offering and will put it on the right earlobe, the right thumb, and the right big toe of the person needing purification.

15 Then the priest will take some of the log of oil and pour it into his left palm.

16 The priest will then dip his right finger into the oil and sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the LORD.

17 Then the priest will put some of the oil that is left in his hand on the right earlobe, the right thumb, and the right big toe of the person needing purification—this oil will be placed on top of the blood of the compensation offering.

18 The priest will put whatever is left of the oil in his hand on the head of the person needing purification. In this way, the priest will make reconciliation for the person before the LORD.

19 The priest will then perform the purification offering and make reconciliation for the person needing purification from their uncleanness. After that, the entirely burned offering will be slaughtered.

20 The priest will offer up the entirely burned offering and the grain offering on the altar. In this way, the priest will make reconciliation for the person, and they will be clean again.

21 Now if the person is poor and cannot afford these things, they can bring one male sheep as a compensation offering, to be lifted up in order to make reconciliation for them; a grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of choice flour mixed with oil; a log of oil;

22 and two turtledoves or two pigeons, whatever they can afford—one as a purification offering and the other as an entirely burned offering.

23 On the eighth day, they must bring these items for their purification to the priest at the meeting tent's entrance before the LORD.

24 The priest will take the male sheep for the compensation offering and the log of oil, and will lift them as an uplifted offering before the LORD.

25 The priest will slaughter the sheep for the compensation offering and will take some of its blood and put it on the right earlobe, the right thumb, and the right big toe of the person needing purification.

26 The priest will pour some of the oil into his left palm.

27 Next, the priest will sprinkle some of the oil seven times before the LORD using his right finger.

28 The priest will then put some of the oil that is in his hand on the right earlobe, the right thumb, and the right big toe of the person needing purification—on top of the same places as the blood of the compensation offering.

29 The priest will put whatever is left of the oil in his hand on the head of the person needing purification, to make reconciliation for them before the LORD.

30 The person will then offer one of the turtledoves or pigeons, whatever they can afford—

31 one as a purification offering and the other as an entirely burned offering along with the grain offering. In this way, the priest will make reconciliation before the LORD for the person needing purification.

32 This is the Instruction concerning those who have an infection of skin disease but who cannot afford the normal means of purification.

33 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:

34 When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving to you as a possession, and I put an infection of skin disease on a house in the land you possess,

35 the homeowner must come and tell the priest, "I think some sort of infection is in my house."

36 The priest will order that the house be emptied before he comes to examine it so that nothing else in the house will become unclean. After that, the priest will come to examine the house.

37 If he examines the infection, and the infection in the walls of the house consists of greenish or reddish depressions, which appear to be deeper than the surface of the wall,

38 the priest will exit the house, go to the front door, and quarantine the house for seven days.

39 On the seventh day, the priest will return. If he finds that the infection has spread over the walls of the house,

40 the priest will order the stones in which the infection is found to be pulled out and discarded outside the city in an unclean area.

41 The inside of the house will then be scraped on all sides, and the plaster that has been scraped off must be dumped outside the city in an unclean area.

42 Then different stones will be used in place of the first ones, and new coating will be used to replaster the house.

43 If the infection breaks out again in the house after the stones have been pulled out and the house scraped and replastered,

44 the priest will return. If he finds that the infection has spread throughout the house, it is a case of infectious skin disease in the house; the house is unclean.

45 The house must be destroyed—its stones, wood, and all the plaster in the house. All of it must be taken outside the city to an unclean area.

46 Anyone who enters the house during the entire period when it is quarantined will be unclean until evening.

47 Anyone who lies down in the house must wash their clothes. Anyone who eats in the house must also wash their clothes.

48 But if the priest arrives and finds that the infection has not spread after the house was replastered, the priest will declare the house clean because the infection has been healed.

49 To cleanse the house, the priest will take two birds, cedarwood, crimson yarn, and hyssop.

50 He will slaughter one bird over fresh water in a pottery jar.

51 He will then take the cedarwood, hyssop, and crimson yarn, along with the wild bird, and will dip all of this into the fresh water and into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered. He will then sprinkle the house seven times.

52 In this way, the priest will cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, the fresh water, the wild bird, the cedarwood, the hyssop, and the crimson yarn.

53 Then he will release the wild bird outside the city into the countryside. In this way, he will make reconciliation for the house, and it will be clean.

54 This concludes the Instruction concerning every infection of skin disease: for scabies,

55 for skin disease on clothing or in houses,

56 and for swelling, scabs, or shiny spots,

57 in order to determine when it is unclean or clean. This concludes the Instruction concerning skin disease.

The Message Bible MSG

1 God spoke to Moses,

2 "These are the instructions for the infected person at the time of his cleansing. First, bring him to the priest.

3 The priest will take him outside the camp and make an examination; if the infected person has been healed of the serious skin disease,

4 the priest will order two live, clean birds, some cedar wood, scarlet thread, and hyssop to be brought for the one to be cleansed.

5 The priest will order him to kill one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.

6 The priest will then take the live bird with the cedar wood, the scarlet thread, and the hyssop and dip them in the blood of the dead bird over fresh water

7 and then sprinkle the person being cleansed from the serious skin disease seven times and pronounce him clean. Finally, he will release the live bird in the open field.

8 The cleansed person, after washing his clothes, shaving off all his hair, and bathing with water, is clean. Afterwards he may again enter the camp, but he has to live outside his tent for seven days.

9 On the seventh day, he must shave off all his hair - from his head, beard, eyebrows, all of it. He then must wash his clothes and bathe all over with water. He will be clean.

10 "The next day, the eighth day, he will bring two lambs without defect and a yearling ewe without defect, along with roughly six quarts of fine flour mixed with oil.

11 The priest who pronounces him clean will place him and the materials for his offerings in the presence of God at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

12 The priest will take one of the lambs and present it and the pint of oil as a Compensation-Offering and lift them up as a Wave-Offering before God.

13 He will slaughter the lamb in the place where the Absolution-Offering and the Whole-Burnt-Offering are slaughtered, in the Holy Place, because like the Absolution-Offering, the Compensation-Offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

14 The priest will now take some of the blood of the Compensation-Offering and put it on the right earlobe of the man being cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

15 Following that he will take some oil and pour it into the palm of his left hand

16 and then with the finger of his right hand sprinkle oil seven times before God.

17 The priest will put some of the remaining oil on the right earlobe of the one being cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, placing it on top of the blood of the Compensation-Offering.

18 He will put the rest of the oil on the head of the man being cleansed and make atonement for him before God.

19 "Finally the priest will sacrifice the Absolution-Offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness, slaughter the Whole-Burnt-Offering

20 and offer it with the Grain-Offering on the Altar. He has made atonement for him. He is clean.

21 "If he is poor and cannot afford these offerings, he will bring one male lamb as a Compensation-Offering to be offered as a Wave-Offering to make atonement for him, and with it a couple of quarts of fine flour mixed with oil for a Grain-Offering, a pint of oil,

22 and two doves or pigeons which he can afford, one for an Absolution-Offering and the other for a Whole-Burnt-Offering.

23 "On the eighth day he will bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the presence of God.

24 The priest will take the lamb for the Compensation-Offering together with the pint of oil and wave them before God as a Wave-Offering.

25 He will slaughter the lamb for the Compensation-Offering, take some of its blood and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

26 The priest will pour some of the oil into the palm of his left hand,

27 and with his right finger sprinkle some of the oil from his palm seven times before God.

28 He will put some of the oil that is in his palm on the same places he put the blood of the Compensation-Offering, on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

29 The priest will take what is left of the oil in his palm and put it on the head of the one to be cleansed, making atonement for him before God.

30 "At the last, he will sacrifice the doves or pigeons which are within his means,

31 one as an Absolution-Offering and the other as a Whole-Burnt-Offering along with the Grain-Offering. Following this procedure the priest will make atonement for the one to be cleansed before God."

32 These are the instructions to be followed for anyone who has a serious skin disease and cannot afford the regular offerings for his cleansing.

33 God spoke to Moses and Aaron,

34 "When you enter the land of Canaan, which I'm giving to you as a possession, and I put a serious fungus in a house in the land of your possession,

35 the householder is to go and tell the priest, 'I have some kind of fungus in my house.'

36 The priest is to order the house vacated until he can come to examine the fungus, so that nothing in the house is declared unclean.

37 When the priest comes and examines the house, if the fungus on the walls of the house has greenish or rusty swelling that appears to go deeper than the surface of the wall,

38 the priest is to walk out the door and shut the house up for seven days.

39 On the seventh day he is to come back and conduct another examination; if the fungus has spread in the walls of the house,

40 he is to order that the stones affected by the fungus be torn out and thrown in a garbage dump outside the city.

41 He is to make sure the entire inside of the house is scraped and the plaster that is removed be taken away to the garbage dump outside the city.

42 Then he is to replace the stones and replaster the house.

43 "If the fungus breaks out again in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house has been scraped and plastered,

44 the priest is to come and conduct an examination; if the fungus has spread, it is a malignant fungus. The house is unclean.

45 The house has to be demolished - its stones, wood, and plaster are to be removed to the garbage dump outside the city.

46 Anyone who enters the house while it is closed up is unclean until evening.

47 Anyone who sleeps or eats in the house must wash his clothes.

48 "But if when the priest comes and conducts his examination, he finds that the fungus has not spread after the house has been replastered, the priest is to declare that the house is clean; the fungus is cured.

49 He then is to purify the house by taking two birds, some cedar wood, scarlet thread, and hyssop.

50 He will slaughter one bird over fresh water in a clay pot.

51 Then he will take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet thread, and the living bird, dip them in the blood of the killed bird and the fresh water and sprinkle the house seven times,

52 cleansing the house with the blood of the bird, the fresh water, the living bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the scarlet thread.

53 Last of all, he will let the living bird loose outside the city in the open field. He has made atonement for the house; the house is clean.

54 "These are the procedures to be followed for every kind of serious skin disease or itch,

55 for mildew or fungus on clothing or in a house,

56 and for a swelling or blister or shiny spot

57 in order to determine when it is unclean and when it is clean. These are the procedures regarding infectious skin diseases and mildew and fungus."
