1And the Lord spake with Mosheh, saying:

2This shall be the law for the leper on the day of his purification: He shall be brought to the priest;

3And the priest shall go forth out of the camp, and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the leper be healed of his leprosy,

4Then the priest shall direct that there be brought for him who is to be cleansed two birds, alive, clean, and wood of cedar and scarlet (wood) and hyssop.

5And the priest shall direct that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel with spring water.

6And he shall take the living bird with the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that had been killed over the spring water.

7And he shall sprinkle it on him who is to be cleansed form leprosy seven times, and he shall be clean: and the living bird he shall send forth upon the face of the field.

8And he who is cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself clean with water, and afterward he may come into the camp; but he shall dwell without his tent seven days.

9And on the seventh day he shall (again) shave off all the hair of his head, and his beard and his eyebrows, the whole of his hair shall he shave off, and wash his clothes, and wash his flesh with water, and he shall be clean.

10And on the eighth day let him take two (he) lambs unblemished, and one ewe lamb of the year unblemished, and three tenths of flour sprinkled with oil for a mincha, and one loga of oil.

11And the priest who maketh him clean shall make the man who is cleansed to stand with them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance.

12And the priest shall take one lamb and offer him for a trespass offering, and the loga of oil, and shall uplift them an elevation before the Lord.

13And he shall slay the lamb on the place where the sin offering is killed, and the burnt offering, (namely,) in the holy place; for as the sin, so the trespass, offering is the priest’s: it is most sacred.

14And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the tow of his right foot.

15And the priest shall take of the log of oil and pour it on the priest’s left hand.

16And the priest shall dip the finger of his right hand in the oil which is upon his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord.

17And of the rest of the oil which is upon his hand the priest shall put upon the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the tow of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering.

18And the remainder of the oil which is upon the priest’s hand he shall put upon the head of him who is cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.

19And the priest shall perform the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is cleansed from his defilement, and afterwards shall he kill the burnt offering.

20And the priest shall sacrifice the burnt offering with the mincha at the altar, and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

21But should he be a poor man, and his hand have not (so much) pertaining (to him), let him take one lamb for the trespass offering for the elevation to atone for him, and one-tenth of flour sprinkled with oil for the mincha, and a loga of oil

22And two turtle doves or two young pigeons which his hand may possess; and one shall be the sin offering, and one the burnt offering.

23And he shall bring them on the eighth day of his purification unto the priest, at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance before the Lord.

24And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall uplift them, an elevation before the Lord.

25And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed, and on the finger of his right hand, and on the tow of his right foot.

26And of the oil the priest shall pour (some) upon the priest’s left hand;

27and the priest shall sprinkle with his finger of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord.

28And the priest shall put of the oil which is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him who is cleansed, and on the finger of his right hand, and on the tow of his right foot, upon the spot of the blood of the trespass offering.

29And the remainder of the oil which is in the priest’s hand he shall put upon the head of him who is cleansed, to propitiate for him before the Lord.

30And he shall offer (perform) one of the turtle doves, or of the young pigeons,

31Which his hand may possess, the one for a sin offering, and one for a burnt offering, with the mincha; and the priest shall make atonement for him who is cleansed, before the Lord.

32This is the law for him in whom hath been the plague of leprosy, whose hand hath not had sufficiency for (the sacrifices of) his purification.

33And the Lord spake with Mosheh and to Aharon, saying:

34When you have entered the land of Kenaan, which I will give unto you for a possession; and I have put the plague of leprosy upon a house in the land of your possession;

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:

57To teach on what day it is unclean, and on what day it is purified. This is the law for the leprosy.
