3The priest must go outside the camp and inspect the person. If the skin disease has healed,
4the priest shall have two ceremonially clean birds brought to him, also some cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop, on behalf of the person to be made clean.
5The priest will order one of the birds to be killed over a clay pot filled with fresh water.
6He will take the live bird together with the cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water.
7He will use the blood to sprinkle seven times the person being made clean of the skin disease. Then the priest will declare them clean and let the live bird fly away.
8The one being made clean must wash their clothes, shave off all their hair, and wash themselves with water; then they will be will be ceremonially clean. After that they can enter the camp, but they must stay outside their tent for seven days.
9On the seventh day they must shave off all their hair: their head, beard, eyebrows, and the rest of their hair. They must wash their clothes and wash themselves with water, and they will be clean.
10On the eighth day they are to bring two male lambs and one female lamb, all a year old and without defects; a grain offering consisting of three-tenths of an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil, and one ‘log’ of olive oil.
11The priest who conducts the ceremony will present the person to be made clean to the Lord, along with these offerings, at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
12The priest will take one of the male lambs and present it as a guilt offering, together with the log of olive oil; and he will wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.
13Then he will kill the lamb near the sanctuary where the sin offering and burnt offering are killed. The sin offering and the guilt offering belong to the priest; it is most holy.
14The priest will put some of the blood from the guilt offering on their right earlobe, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot of the person being made clean.
15The priest will pour some of the log of olive oil into his left palm,
16dip his right index finger in it, and using his finger, sprinkle some of the olive oil seven times before the Lord.
17The priest will then use some of the rest of the olive oil remaining in his palm on the person being made clean, and put it on top of the blood of the guilt offering. This will be on their right earlobe, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.
18What is left of the olive oil in his palm, the priest will put on the head of the person being made clean and then make them right before the Lord.
19The priest will sacrifice the sin offering to make the person right, so that they are now clean from their uncleanness. After that, the priest will kill the burnt offering
20and offer it on the altar, together with the grain offering, to make them right, and they will be clean.
21But those who are poor and can't afford these offerings must bring one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make them right, together with a tenth an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of olive oil,
22and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whichever they can afford. One is to be used as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.
23On the eighth day they are to take them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord so they can be made clean.
24The priest will take the lamb for the guilt offering, together with the log of olive oil, and wave them as a wave offering before the Lord.
25After he kills the lamb for the guilt offering, the priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one being made clean, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot.
26Then the priest will pour some of the olive oil into his left palm
27and using his right index finger, will sprinkle some of the oil from his left palm seven times before the Lord.
28The priest shall also put some of the olive oil in his palm on the right earlobe of the person being made clean, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of his right foot, in the same places as the blood of the guilt offering.
29What is left of the olive oil in his palm, the priest will put on the head of the person being made clean and then make them right before the Lord.
30Then they must sacrifice one of the turtledoves or young pigeons, whichever they can afford,
31one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, along with the grain offering. This is how the priest will make the person right and clean before the Lord.
32These are the regulations for those who have a skin disease and can't afford the usual offerings to make people clean.”
33Then the Lord told Moses and Aaron,
34“When you get to Canaan, the land I'm giving you to own, if I put some mold into a house there and contaminate it,
35the owner of the house must come and tell the priest, ‘It seems my house has something like mold.’
36The priest must order the house to be emptied before he goes in to inspect the mold, so that nothing in the house will be declared unclean. Once that's done, the priest is to go in and inspect the house.
37He will examine the house and see whether the mold on the walls is made up of green or red indentations that go under the surface,
38the priest shall go out of door and seal the house for seven days.
39On the seventh day the priest will return and inspect the house again. If the mold has spread on the walls,
