利未記 第 14 章

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

This is the law of the leper in the day when he is cleansed: he shall be brought to the priest.

And the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall look, and behold, the mark of leprosy has been healed in the leper.

And the priest shall give orders, and they shall take for the one being cleansed two living clean small birds, and cedar wood, and spun scarlet, and hyssop.

And the priest shall give orders, and they shall slaughter the one small bird into an earthenware vessel over running water.

As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the spun scarlet, and the hyssop, and he shall dip them and the living bird into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over running water.

And he shall sprinkle seven times upon the one being cleansed from the leprosy, and he shall be clean; and he shall send away the living bird into the open field.

And the one being cleansed shall wash his garments and shall shave off all his hair and shall bathe in water, and he shall be clean; and after that he shall come into the camp, but shall stay outside his house for seven days.

And it shall be on the seventh day that he shall shave off all his hair — his head and his beard and his eyebrows — and he shall shave off all his hair; and he shall wash the garments and shall bathe his body in water, and he shall be clean.

And on the eighth day he shall take two unblemished yearling lambs, and one unblemished yearling sheep, and three tenths of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and one cup of oil.

And the priest who performs the cleansing shall set the man being cleansed, together with these things, before the Lord at the door of the tent of witness.

And the priest shall take the one lamb and shall bring it as a guilt offering, along with the cup of oil, and shall set them apart as a set-apart portion before the Lord.

And they shall slaughter the lamb in the place where they slaughter the whole burnt offerings and the sin offerings, in a holy place; for the sin offering is like the guilt offering — it belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one being cleansed, and on the tip of the right hand, and on the tip of the right foot.

And the priest, taking some from the cup of oil, shall pour it on his own left hand.

And he shall dip his right finger into some of the oil that is on his left hand, and shall sprinkle with his finger seven times before the Lord.

And the remaining oil that is in his hand the priest shall put on the lobe of the right ear of the one being cleansed, and on the tip of the right hand, and on the tip of the right foot, upon the place of the blood of the guilt offering.

And the remaining oil that is on the priest's hand the priest shall put on the head of the one who has been cleansed; and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.

And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for the unclean one being cleansed, from his sin; and after this the priest shall slaughter the whole burnt offering.

And the priest shall offer up the whole burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar before the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be cleansed.

But if he is poor and his hand does not find enough, he shall take one lamb for that in which he trespassed, as a portion taken off, so as to make atonement for him; and a tenth of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and one cup of oil;

and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whatever his hand finds; and the one shall be for a sin offering and the one for a whole burnt offering.

And he shall bring them on the eighth day, for his cleansing, to the priest at the door of the tent of witness before the Lord.

And the priest, taking the lamb of the guilt offering and the cup of oil, shall set them as a placed offering before the Lord.

And he shall slaughter the lamb of the guilt offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering and shall put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one being cleansed, and on the tip of the right hand, and on the tip of the right foot.

And the priest shall pour some of the oil on his own left hand.

And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is on his left hand, seven times before the Lord.

And the priest shall put some of the oil that is on his hand on the lobe of the right ear of the one being cleansed, and on the tip of his right hand, and on the tip of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the guilt offering.

And the remainder of the oil that is on the priest's hand he shall put on the head of the one who has been cleansed; and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.

And he shall offer one of the turtledoves, or one of the young pigeons, according to what his hand found;

the one for a sin offering and the one for a whole burnt offering, together with the grain offering; and the priest shall make atonement for the one being cleansed before the Lord.

This is the law for the one in whom is the mark of leprosy and whose hand does not find enough for his cleansing.

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:

When you come into the land of the Canaanites, which I give you as a possession, and I put a mark of leprosy in the houses of the land acquired by you,

then the one whose house it is shall come and report to the priest, saying, Something like a mark has appeared to me in my house.

And the priest shall give orders to clear out the house before the priest goes in to see the mark, so that whatever is in the house may not become unclean; and after this the priest shall go in to examine the house.

And he shall look at the mark, and behold, if the mark is in the walls of the house as greenish or reddish hollows, and their appearance is lower than the walls,

then the priest shall come out of the house to the door of the house, and the priest shall shut up the house for seven days.

And the priest shall return on the seventh day and shall look at the house, and behold, the mark has not spread in the walls of the house.

And the priest shall give orders, and they shall take out the stones in which the mark is, and shall throw them outside the city into an unclean place.

And they shall scrape the house inside all around, and shall pour out the dust outside the city into an unclean place.

And they shall take other scraped stones and shall put them in place of the stones, and they shall take other dust and shall plaster the house.

But if the mark comes again and breaks out in the house after the stones have been taken out and after the house has been scraped and after it has been plastered,

then the priest shall go in and look; if the mark has spread in the house, it is a persistent leprosy in the house; it is unclean.

And they shall pull down the house, and its timbers and its stones and all the dust they shall carry outside the city into an unclean place.

And the one who goes into the house all the days that it is shut up shall be unclean until evening.

And the one who sleeps in the house shall wash his garments and shall be unclean until evening; and the one who eats in the house shall wash his garments and shall be unclean until evening.

But if the priest arrives and goes in and looks, and behold, the mark has certainly not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the mark has been healed.

And to purify the house he shall take two living clean small birds, and cedar wood, and spun scarlet, and hyssop.

And he shall slaughter the one small bird into an earthenware vessel over running water.

And he shall take the cedar wood, and the spun scarlet, and the hyssop, and the living bird, and shall dip it into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over running water, and shall sprinkle the house with them seven times.

And he shall purify the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the spun scarlet.

And he shall send away the living bird outside the city into the open field, and he shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.

This is the law concerning every mark of leprosy and of scall,

and concerning the leprosy of a garment and of a house,

and concerning a scar, and a marking, and a bright spot,

and for declaring on what day it is unclean and on what day it shall be cleansed. This is the law of leprosy.
