Leviticus 14:21-32

Complete Jewish Bible

(RY: v, LY: iii) ²¹ “If he is poor, so that he can’t afford to do otherwise, he is to take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved, to make atonement for him; two quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering; two-thirds of a pint of olive oil; ²² and two doves or two young pigeons, such as he can afford, the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. ²³ On the eighth day, he will bring them to the cohen for his purification, to the entrance of the tent of meeting before Adonai. ²⁴ The cohen is to take the lamb of the guilt offering and the two-thirds of a pint of olive oil and wave them as a wave offering before Adonai. ²⁵ He is to slaughter the lamb of the guilt offering; and the cohen is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of the person being purified, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. ²⁶ The cohen is to take some of the olive oil and pour it into the palm of his own left hand, ²⁷ and sprinkle with his right hand some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before Adonai. ²⁸ The cohen is to put some of the oil in his hand on the tip of the right ear of the person being purified, on the thumb of his right hand, on the big toe of his right foot — in the same place as the blood of the guilt offering. ²⁹ Finally, the cohen is to put the rest of the oil in his hand on the head of the person being purified, to make atonement for him before Adonai. ³⁰ He is to offer one of the doves or young pigeons, such as the person can afford, ³¹ whatever his means suffice for — the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering — with the grain offering; thus the cohen will make atonement before Adonai for the person being purified. ³² Such is the law for the person who has tzara‘at sores if he cannot afford the usual elements used for his purification.”
