This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: he shall be brought unto the priest,
“This shall be the law of the leprous person for the day of his cleansing. He shall be brought to the priest,
and the priest shall go out of the camp; and when the priest looketh, and behold, the sore of leprosy is healed in the leper,
and the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall look. Then, if the case of leprous disease is healed in the leprous person,
then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two clean living birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.
And the priest shall command that one bird be killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
as to the living bird -- he shall take it, and the cedar-wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water;
He shall take the live bird with the cedarwood and the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, and dip them and the live bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water.

Signs of Home Contamination
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Laws for Cleansing Houses
The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
When ye come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a leprous plague in a house of the land of your possession,
“When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for a possession, and I put a case of leprous disease in a house in the land of your possession,
then he whose house it is shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me like a plague in the house;
then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘There seems to me to be some case of disease in my house.’
and the priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that is in the house be not made unclean; and afterwards the priest shall go in to see the house.
Then the priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest goes to examine the disease, lest all that is in the house be declared unclean. And afterward the priest shall go in to see the house.
And when he looketh on the plague, and behold, the plague is in the walls of the house, greenish or reddish hollows, and their look is deeper than the surface of the wall,
And he shall examine the disease. And if the disease is in the walls of the house with greenish or reddish spots, and if it appears to be deeper than the surface,
then the priest shall go out of the house to the entrance of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house and shut up the house seven days.
And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and when he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the walls of the house,
And the priest shall come again on the seventh day, and look. If the disease has spread in the walls of the house,
then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them out of the city, in an unclean place.
then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the disease and throw them into an unclean place outside the city.
And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall pour out the mortar that they have scraped off, out of the city in an unclean place.
And he shall have the inside of the house scraped all around, and the plaster that they scrape off they shall pour out in an unclean place outside the city.
And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and they shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.
Then they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and he shall take other plaster and plaster the house.
And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plastered,
“If the disease breaks out again in the house, after he has taken out the stones and scraped the house and plastered it,
then the priest shall come, and when he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the house, it is a corroding leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
then the priest shall go and look. And if the disease has spread in the house, it is a persistent leprous disease in the house; it is unclean.
And they shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber thereof, and all the mortar of the house, and shall carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
And he shall break down the house, its stones and timber and all the plaster of the house, and he shall carry them out of the city to an unclean place.
And he that goeth into the house as long as it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.
Moreover, whoever enters the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening,
And he that sleepeth in the house shall wash his garments, and he that eateth in the house shall wash his garments.
and whoever sleeps in the house shall wash his clothes, and whoever eats in the house shall wash his clothes.
Cleansing a Home
But if the priest shall come in and look, and behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house hath been plastered, the priest shall pronounce the house clean; for the plague is healed.
But if the priest shall come in and look, and behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house hath been plastered, the priest shall pronounce the house clean; for the plague is healed.
“But if the priest comes and looks, and if the disease has not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, for the disease is healed.
And he shall take, to purge the house from the defilement, two birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop;
And for the cleansing of the house he shall take two small birds, with cedarwood and scarlet yarn and hyssop,
and he shall kill one bird in an earthen vessel over running water;
and shall kill one of the birds in an earthenware vessel over fresh water
and he shall take the cedar-wood and the hyssop and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times;
and shall take the cedarwood and the hyssop and the scarlet yarn, along with the live bird, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed and in the fresh water and sprinkle the house seven times.
and he shall purge the house from the defilement 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 scarlet;
Thus he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird and with the fresh water and with the live bird and with the cedarwood and hyssop and scarlet yarn.
and he shall let the living bird loose out of the city into the open field; and he shall make atonement for the house, and it is clean.
And he shall let the live bird go out of the city into the open country. So he shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.”
This is the law for every sore of leprosy, and for the scall,
This is the law for any case of leprous disease: for an itch,
and for the leprosy of garments, and of houses,
for leprous disease in a garment or in a house,
and for the rising, and for the scab, and for the bright spot,
and for a swelling or an eruption or a spot,
