16 And the Priest shall dip his [a]right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord.

17 And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand, shall the Priest put upon the lap of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, [b]where the blood of the trespass offering was put.

18 But the remnant of the oil that is in the Priest’s hand, he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: so the Priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord.
