Leviticus 14:35-56

³⁵And he who owns the house shall come and show to the priest, saying, There is a plague, as it appeareth to me, in the house:

³⁶The priest shall direct that they turn out (all that is in) the house before the priest goeth in to inspect the plague; that all that is in the house be not (condemned as) unclean; and afterward the priest shall enter to survey the house.

³⁷Then he shall look at the plague; and, behold, if the plague be in the walls of the house in seams, green or red, and they appear to be deeper than the (surface of the) wall,

³⁸then the priest shall go out from the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days.

³⁹And the priest shall return on the seventh day, and look, and, behold, if the plague hath increased in the walls of the house,

⁴⁰then the priest shall order that they take down the stones of the house in which the plague is, and cast them without the town into an unclean place.

⁴¹And they shall scrape the house within round about, and throw the plaster (dust) which they have scraped off without the town, into an unclean place.

⁴²And they shall take other stones, and insert them in the place of the former stones, and shall take other plaster and cover the house.

⁴³And if the plague return and increase in the house after that the stones have been taken down, nad after they have scraped the house, and after it hath been plastered (anew);

⁴⁴Then the priest shall enter, and, behold, if the plague hath increased in the house, it is a corroding leprosy in the house, it is unclean.

⁴⁵And they shall break down the house, the stones of it, the timber, and all the mortar of the house; and he shall carry them (have them carried) without the town unto an unclean place.

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

⁴⁷And he who may sleep in the house shall wash his clothes, and he who eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.

⁴⁸But if the priest, having entered, shall look, and, behold, the plague hath not increased in the house after the house hath been plastered, the priest shall make (pronounce) the house to be clean, for the plague hath been cured.

⁴⁹And he shall take, to purify the house, two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.

⁵⁰And he shall kill the one bird in a vessel of pottery with spring water,

⁵¹and take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird; and dip them in the blood of the bird which had been killed and in the spring water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

⁵²And he shall purify the house with the blood of the bird, and with the spring water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet.

⁵³But he shall send forth the living bird out of town, upon the face of the field, and make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.

⁵⁴This is the law for every plague of leprosy and of scorbutics,

⁵⁵And for leprosy in clothing, and in a house:

⁵⁶And for abscess, and scar, and inflamed spot:
