ΛΕΥΙΤΙΚΟΝ 14:2-7

²οὗτος ὁ νὁμος τοῦ λεπροῦ· ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ καθαρισθῇ, καὶ προσαχθήσεται πρὸς τὸν ἱερέα.

³Καὶ ἐξελεύσεται ὁ ἱερεὺς ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, καὶ ὄψεται ὁ ἱερεὺς, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἰᾶται ἡ ἁφὴ τῆς λέπρας ἀπὸ τοῦ λεπροῦ.

⁴Καὶ προστάξει ὁ ἱερεὺς, καὶ λήψονται τῷ κεκαθαρισμένῳ δύο ὀρνίθια ζῶντα καθαρὰ, καὶ ξύλον κέδρινον, καὶ κεκλωσμένον κόκκινον, καὶ ὕσσωπον.

⁵Καὶ προστάξει ὁ ἱερεὺς, καὶ σφάξουσι τὸ ὀρνίθιον τὸ ἓν εἰς ἀγγεῖον ὀστράκινον ἐφʼ ὕδατι ζῶντι.

⁶Καὶ τὸ ὀρνίθιον τὸ ζῶν λήμψεται αὐτὸ, καὶ τὸ ξύλον τὸ κέδρινον, καὶ τὸ κλωστὸν κόκκινον, καὶ τὸν ὕσσωπον, καὶ βάψει αὐτὰ καὶ τὸ ὀρνίθιον τὸ ζῶν εἰς τὸ αἷμα τοῦ ὀρνιθίου τοῦ σφαγέντος ἐφʼ ὕδατι ζῶντι.

⁷Καὶ περιῤῥανεῖ ἐπὶ τὸν καθαρισθέντα ἀπὸ τῆς λέπρας ἑπτάκις, καὶ καθαρὸς ἔσται· καὶ ἐξαποστελεῖ τὸ ὀρνίθιον τὸ ζῶν εἰς τὸ πεδίον.
