Leviticus 14:1-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

14 And the Lord said to Moses,

² This shall be the law of the leper on the day when he is to be pronounced clean: he shall be brought to the priest [at a meeting place outside the camp];

³ The priest shall go out of the camp [to meet him]; and [he] shall examine him, and if the disease is healed in the leper,

⁴ Then the priest shall command to take for him who is to be cleansed two living clean birds and cedar wood and scarlet [material] and hyssop.^(A)

⁵ And the priest shall command to kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over fresh, running water.

⁶ As for the living bird, he shall take it, the cedar wood, and the scarlet [material], and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird killed over the running water;

⁷ And he shall sprinkle [the blood] on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let go the living bird into the open field.^(B)

⁸ He who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water; and he shall be clean. After that he shall come into the camp, but stay outside his tent seven days.
