Leviticus 14:46-57

⁴⁶“Moreover he who goes into the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening.

⁴⁷He who lies down in the house shall wash his clothes; and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes.

⁴⁸“If the priest shall come in, and examine it, and behold, the plague hasn’t spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.

⁴⁹To cleanse the house he shall take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop.

⁵⁰He shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water.

⁵¹He shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

⁵²He shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop, and with the scarlet;

⁵³but he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So shall he make atonement for the house; and it shall be clean.”

⁵⁴This is the law for any plague of leprosy, and for an itch,

⁵⁵and for the destructive mildew of a garment, and for a house,

⁵⁶and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot;

⁵⁷to teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean. This is the law of leprosy.
