Leviticus 14:49-53

Contemporary English Version

⁴⁹ Then, to show that the house is now clean, he will get two birds, a stick of cedar wood, a piece of red yarn, and a branch from a hyssop plant and bring them to the house. ⁵⁰ He will kill one of the birds over a clay pot of spring water ^51-52 and let its blood drain into the pot. Then he will dip the cedar, the hyssop, the yarn, and the other bird into the mixture of blood and water. Next, he will sprinkle the house seven times with the mixture, then the house will be completely clean. ⁵³ Finally, he will release the bird and let it fly away, ending the ceremony for purifying the house.
