Leviticus 14:46-57

⁴⁶He that entereth into the house, when it is shut (up), shall be unclean till to eventide,

⁴⁷and he that sleepeth in it, and eateth anything therein, he shall wash his clothes.

⁴⁸That if the priest entereth, and seeth that the leprosy increased not in the house, after that it was daubed the second time, the priest shall cleanse it; for health is yielded again thereto. (But if the priest entereth, and seeth that the leprosy hath not grown again, or not spread, in the house, after that it was daubed the second time, the priest shall pronounce it to be clean; for health hath been restored to it, that is, the plague hath been cured.)

⁴⁹And to the cleansing thereof (or And for its cleansing), the priest shall take two sparrows, and cedar wood, and vermilion, that is, a red thread, and hyssop.

⁵⁰And when one sparrow is offered in a vessel of earth, on quick waters, (And when one sparrow is offered in an earthen, or a clay, vessel, filled with fresh water,)

⁵¹the priest shall take the cedar wood, and hyssop, and the red thread, and the quick sparrow, and he shall dip, or wet, all these things in the blood of the sparrow offered, or slain, and in the quick waters; and he shall sprinkle the house seven times; (the priest shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the red thread, and the living sparrow, and he shall dip all these things in the blood of the slain sparrow, and in the fresh water; and he shall sprinkle the house seven times;)

⁵²and he shall cleanse it as well in the blood of the sparrow, as in the living waters, and in the quick sparrow, and in the cedar wood, and in the hyssop, and (the) red thread. (and so he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the sparrow, and the fresh water, and the living sparrow, and the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the red thread.)

⁵³And when he hath let go the sparrow to fly away into the field freely, he shall pray for the house, and it shall be cleansed rightfully. (And when he hath let the sparrow go, to fly away freely into the field, he shall pray for the house, and so by this rite it shall be made clean.)

⁵⁴This is the law of all leprosy, and of smiting, (This is the law for all kinds of leprosy, and of scurf, or of scales,)

⁵⁵and of leprosy of clothes, and of houses,

⁵⁶and of the sign of (a) wound, and of little whelks breaking out, and of spot shining, and in colours changed into diverse spots, (and of the mark of a sore, and of little whelks breaking out, and of shining spots, and of colours changed into diverse spots,)

⁵⁷that it may be known, what is clean, or unclean. (so that it can be pronounced what is clean, and what is unclean.)
