33And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,34When you come into the land of Canaan, which I am giving to you for a possession, then I will place a plague of leprosy in a house in the land of your possession.35Then the one to whom the house belongs shall come and report to the priest, saying, A plague has appeared to me in the house.36The priest shall command that the house be emptied before the priest enters to examine the plague, so that nothing in the house becomes defiled; and afterward the priest shall enter to examine the house.37He shall examine the plague, and behold, if the plague is in the walls of the house with hollow greenish or reddish depressions, and its appearance is lower than the wall,38the priest shall go out from the house to the entrance of the house and shut up the house for seven days.39The priest shall return on the seventh day and examine it, and behold, if the plague has spread in the walls of the house,40The priest shall command that the stones in which the plague is be removed and thrown outside the city to an unclean place.41They shall scrape the house on the inside all around and pour out the scraped-off dust outside the city to an unclean place.42They shall take other stones and bring them in place of the stones, and take other dust and replaster the house.43If the plague returns and breaks out in the house after he has removed the stones and after he has scraped the house and after he has replastered it,44The priest shall enter and examine it, and behold, if the plague has spread in the house, it is a malign leprosy in the house; the house is unclean.45He shall tear down the house, its stones, its timber, and all the dust of the house, and carry them outside the city to an unclean place.46Anyone who enters the house during all the days it is shut shall be defiled until evening.47The one who lies down in the house shall wash his garments, and the one who eats in the house shall wash his garments.48If the priest enters and examines it, and behold, if the plague has not spread in the house after he has replastered the house, the priest shall pronounce the house clean, for the plague has been healed.49To cleanse the house he shall take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop.50He shall slaughter one bird in an earthenware vessel over living water.51He shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn, the worm, and the living bird, dip them in the blood of the slaughtered bird and in the living water, and sprinkle the house seven times.52He shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, the living water, the living bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the scarlet yarn.53He shall send the living bird outside the city into the open land, make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.54This is the instruction for every plague of leprosy and for the scab,55and for leprosy of the garment and of the house,56and for the elevation, the scab, and the bright spot,57to instruct on the day of the unclean and on the day of the clean. This is the instruction of the leprosy.
