Leviticus 14:31-55

³¹Even what his means enable him, the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, with the meat-offering: and the priest shall thus make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed, before the Lord.

³²This is the law of him on whom is the plague of leprosy, whose means are not sufficient when he is cleansed.

³³And the Lord spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

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

³⁵Then shall he that owneth the house come and tell the priest, saying, Something like a leprosy hath shown itself to me in the house.

³⁶And the priest shall command that they clear out the house, before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all be not made unclean that is in the house: and after this shall the priest go in to see the house.

³⁷And he shall view the plague, and, behold, if the plague be in the walls of the house, in depressions, dark green or dark red, and their appearance be deeper than the wall:

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

³⁹And the priest shall come again on the seventh day; and if he see, that, behold, the plague have spread in the walls of the house:

⁴⁰Then shall the priest command that they break out the stones on which the plague is; and they shall cast them forth without the city on an unclean place.

⁴¹And the house he shall cause to be scraped within round about; and they shall pour out the rubbish that they have scraped off without the city on an unclean place.

⁴²And they shall take other stones, and put them into the place of these stones; and other mortar shall he take, and shall plaster the house.

⁴³And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after he hath taken away the stones, and after the house hath been scraped, and after it hath been plastered:

⁴⁴Then shall the priest come; and if he see that, behold, the plague have spread in the house, it is a corrosive leprosy in the house; it is unclean.

⁴⁵And he shall break down the house, its stones, and the timbers thereof, and all the mortar of the house; and he shall carry them forth to without the city, unto an unclean place.

⁴⁶And he that goeth into the house, all the days that it is locked up, shall be unclean until the evening.

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

⁴⁸But if the priest should come in, and see, and, behold, the plague have not spread in the house, after the house was plastered: then shall the priest pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.

⁴⁹And he shall take, to atone for the house, two birds, and cedar wood, and a string of scarlet yarn, and hyssop;

⁵⁰And he shall kill the one bird in an earthen vessel over running water;

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

⁵²And he shall atone for 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 string of scarlet yarn;

⁵³But he shall let fly forth the living bird out of the city into the open field, and make thus 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,
