8:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the
anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and two rams, and a
basket of unleavened bread;
3 And gather thou all the congregation together unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation.
4 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him; and the assembly was
gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
5 And Moses said unto the congregation, This is the thing which the
LORD commanded to be done.
6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.
7 And he put upon him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and
clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon him, and he girded
him with the curious girdle of the ephod, and bound it unto him
therewith.
8 And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate
the Urim and the Thummim.
9 And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon
his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the holy crown; as the
LORD commanded Moses.
10 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and
all that was therein, and sanctified them.
11 And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times, and anointed
the altar and all his vessels, both the laver and his foot, to
sanctify them.
12 And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron's head, and anointed
him, to sanctify him.
13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them, and girded
them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the LORD commanded
Moses.
14 And he brought the bullock for the sin offering: and Aaron and his
sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock for the sin
offering.
15 And he slew it; and Moses took the blood, and put it upon the horns
of the altar round about with his finger, and purified the altar, and
poured the blood at the bottom of the altar, and sanctified it, to
make reconciliation upon it.
16 And he took all the fat that was upon the inwards, and caul above
the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses burned it
upon the altar.
17 But the bullock, and his hide, his flesh, and his dung, he burnt
with fire without the camp; as the LORD commanded Moses.
18 And he brought the ram for the burnt offering: and Aaron and his
sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
19 And he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar
round about.
20 And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burnt the head, and the
pieces, and the fat.
21 And he washed the inwards and the legs in water; and Moses burnt
the whole ram upon the altar: it was a burnt sacrifice for a sweet
savour, and an offering made by fire unto the LORD; as the LORD
commanded Moses.
22 And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron
and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
23 And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and put it upon
the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand,
and upon the great toe of his right foot.
24 And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the
tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and
upon the great toes of their right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood
upon the altar round about.
25 And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that was upon
the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and
their fat, and the right shoulder:
26 And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before the
LORD, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread, and one
wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon the right shoulder:
27 And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and
waved them for a wave offering before the LORD.
28 And Moses took them from off their hands, and burnt them on the
altar upon the burnt offering: they were consecrations for a sweet
savour: it is an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before
the LORD: for of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part; as the
LORD commanded Moses.
30 And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood which was
upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron, and upon his garments,
and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments with him; and
sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons'
garments with him.
31 And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons, Boil the flesh at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and there eat it with the
bread that is in the basket of consecrations, as I commanded, saying,
Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
32 And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread shall ye
burn with fire.
33 And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation in seven days, until the days of your consecration be at
an end: for seven days shall he consecrate you.
34 As he hath done this day, so the LORD hath commanded to do, to make
an atonement for you.
35 Therefore shall ye abide at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation day and night seven days, and keep the charge of the
LORD, that ye die not: for so I am commanded.
36 So Aaron and his sons did all things which the LORD commanded by
the hand of Moses. |

9:1 And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and
his sons, and the elders of Israel;
2 And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering,
and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before
the LORD.
3 And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a
kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of
the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;
4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before
the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD
will appear unto you.
5 And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of
the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before
the LORD.
6 And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commanded that ye
should do: and the glory of the LORD shall appear unto you.
7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin
offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself,
and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an
atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.
8 Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin
offering, which was for himself.
9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped his
finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and
poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:
10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the
sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the LORD commanded Moses.
11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
12 And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented unto him
the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.
13 And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces
thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
14 And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the
burnt offering on the altar.
15 And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which was
the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin,
as the first.
16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the
manner.
17 And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof, and
burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.
18 He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace
offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented unto
him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which
covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:
20 And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon
the altar:
21 And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave
offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.
22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them,
and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt
offering, and peace offerings.
23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation,
and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD
appeared unto all the people.
24 And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon
the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people
saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces. |

10:1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his
censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered
strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.
2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they
died before the LORD.
3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying,
I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the
people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.
4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle
of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from
before the sanctuary out of the camp.
5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp;
as Moses had said.
6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his
sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die,
and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the
whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled.
7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon
you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying,
9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee,
when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it
shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations:
10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between
unclean and clean;
11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which
the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
12 And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his
sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the
offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside
the altar: for it is most holy:
13 And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy due, and
thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the LORD made by fire: for so I am
commanded.
14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean
place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be
thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given out of the sacrifices of
peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the
offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering
before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a
statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded.
16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and,
behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the
sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying,
17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place,
seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity
of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?
18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place:
ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded.
19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their
sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and such things
have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should
it have been accepted in the sight of the LORD?
20 And when Moses heard that, he was content. |

11:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts
which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the
cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of
them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud,
but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the
hoof; he is unclean unto you.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof;
he is unclean unto you.
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet
he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not
touch; they are unclean to you.
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath
fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them
shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the
rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which
is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of
their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an
abomination unto you.
13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the
fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle,
and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 Every raven after his kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after
his kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the
bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination
unto you.
21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon
all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the
earth;
22 Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the
bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the
grasshopper after his kind.
23 But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall
be an abomination unto you.
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase
of them shall be unclean until the even.
25 And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his
clothes, and be unclean until the even.
26 The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not
clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one
that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that
go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their
carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and
be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.
29 These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that
creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise
after his kind,
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail,
and the mole.
31 These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch
them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it
shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or
skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it
must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it
shall be cleansed.
33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever
is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh
shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel
shall be unclean.
35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcase falleth shall
be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be
broken down: for they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein there is plenty of water,
shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be
unclean.
37 And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is
to be sown, it shall be clean.
38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their
carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the
carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and
be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an
abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all
four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that
creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an
abomination.
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing
that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them,
that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves,
and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile
yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth.
45 For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to
be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living
creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that
creepeth upon the earth:
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between
the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten. |

unclean.
3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be
circumcised.

purifying threescore and six days.

offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering,

and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law
for her that hath born a male or a female.

turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the
other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for

13:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or
a bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh like the plague of
leprosy; then he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one
of his sons the priests:
3 And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh:
and when the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in
sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy:
and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.
4 If the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight
be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white;
then the priest shall shut up him that hath the plague seven days:
5 And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold, if
the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plague spread not in the
skin; then the priest shall shut him up seven days more:
6 And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold,
if the plague be somewhat dark, and the plague spread not in the skin,
the priest shall pronounce him clean: it is but a scab: and he shall
wash his clothes, and be clean.
7 But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he hath
been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the
priest again:
8 And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy.
9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought
unto the priest;
10 And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the rising be white
in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and there be quick raw
flesh in the rising;
11 It is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall
pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up: for he is unclean.
12 And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy
cover all the skin of him that hath the plague from his head even to
his foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;
13 Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the leprosy have
covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean that hath the
plague: it is all turned white: he is clean.
14 But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be
unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy.
16 Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto white, he shall
come unto the priest;
17 And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the plague be turned
into white; then the priest shall pronounce him clean that hath the
plague: he is clean.
18 The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil, and
is healed,
19 And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a bright
spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be shewed to the priest;
20 And if, when the priest seeth it, behold, it be in sight lower than
the skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosy broken out of the
boil.
21 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white hairs
therein, and if it be not lower than the skin, but be somewhat dark;
then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
22 And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
23 But if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not, it is a
burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
24 Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there is a hot
burning, and the quick flesh that burneth have a white bright spot,
somewhat reddish, or white;
25 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the hair in the
bright spot be turned white, and it be in sight deeper than the skin;
it is a leprosy broken out of the burning: wherefore the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
26 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white hair
in the bright spot, and it be no lower than the other skin, but be
somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
27 And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day: and if it be
spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
28 And if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not in the
skin, but it be somewhat dark; it is a rising of the burning, and the
priest shall pronounce him clean: for it is an inflammation of the
burning.
29 If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard;
30 Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold, if it be in
sight deeper than the skin; and there be in it a yellow thin hair;
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a dry scall, even a
leprosy upon the head or beard.
31 And if the priest look on the plague of the scall, and, behold, it
be not in sight deeper than the skin, and that there is no black hair
in it; then the priest shall shut up him that hath the plague of the
scall seven days:
32 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and,
behold, if the scall spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair,
and the scall be not in sight deeper than the skin;
33 He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the
priest shall shut up him that hath the scall seven days more:
34 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and,
behold, if the scall be not spread in the skin, nor be in sight deeper
than the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall
wash his clothes, and be clean.
35 But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleansing;
36 Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be
spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he is
unclean.
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and that there is black
hair grown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean: and the
priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright
spots, even white bright spots;
39 Then the priest shall look: and, behold, if the bright spots in the
skin of their flesh be darkish white; it is a freckled spot that
groweth in the skin; he is clean.
40 And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is
he clean.
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head
toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he clean.
42 And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish
sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald
forehead.
43 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the rising of
the sore be white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead,
as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
44 He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him
utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be rent, and
his head bare, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and
shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
46 All the days wherein the plague shall be in him he shall be
defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp shall
his habitation be.
47 The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it be a
woollen garment, or a linen garment;
48 Whether it be in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of woollen;
whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
49 And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the
skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it
is a plague of leprosy, and shall be shewed unto the priest:
50 And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut up it that hath
the plague seven days:
51 And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day: if the plague
be spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a
skin, or in any work that is made of skin; the plague is a fretting
leprosy; it is unclean.
52 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in
woollen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for
it is a fretting leprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
53 And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague be not spread
in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of
skin;
54 Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing wherein the
plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more:
55 And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed:
and, behold, if the plague have not changed his colour, and the plague
be not spread; it is unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it is
fret inward, whether it be bare within or without.
56 And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague be somewhat dark
after the washing of it; then he shall rend it out of the garment, or
out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
57 And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in
the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreading plague: thou
shalt burn that wherein the plague is with fire.
58 And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of skin
it be, which thou shalt wash, if the plague be departed from them,
then it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean.
59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woollen or
linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to
pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean. |

14:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He
shall be brought unto the priest:
3 And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall
look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper;
4 Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed
two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an
earthen vessel over running water:
6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and
the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in
the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water:
7 And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the
leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the
living bird loose into the open field.
8 And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off
all his hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be clean: and
after that he shall come into the camp, and shall tarry abroad out of
his tent seven days.
9 But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair
off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he
shall shave off: and he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his
flesh in water, and he shall be clean.
10 And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish,
and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth
deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and one log
of oil.
11 And the priest that maketh him clean shall present the man that is
to be made clean, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation:
12 And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass
offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before
the LORD:
13 And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin
offering and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for as the sin
offering is the priest's, so is the trespass offering: it is most
holy:
14 And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass
offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip 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:
15 And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into
the palm of his own left hand:
16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his
left hand, and shall 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 tip 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,
upon the blood of the trespass offering:
18 And 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: and the priest shall
make an atonement for him before the LORD.
19 And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make an atonement
for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he
shall kill the burnt offering:
20 And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering
upon the altar: and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and he
shall be clean.
21 And if he be poor, and cannot get so much; then he shall take one
lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make an atonement for
him, and one tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat
offering, and a log of oil;
22 And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to
get; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt
offering.
23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing unto
the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
before the LORD.
24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and
the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering
before the LORD:
25 And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest
shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it upon
the tip 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:
26 And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left
hand:
27 And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil
that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD:
28 And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the
tip 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, upon the
place of the blood of the trespass offering:
29 And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put
upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for
him before the LORD.
30 And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of the young
pigeons, such as he can get;
31 Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin offering, and the
other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering: and the priest
shall make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the
LORD.
32 This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy, whose hand
is not able to get that which pertaineth to his cleansing.
33 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
34 When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a
possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of
your possession;
35 And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest,
saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in the house:
36 Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the
priest go into it to see the plague, that all that is in the house be
not made unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the
house:
37 And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, if the plague be in
the walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish or reddish, which
in sight are lower than the wall;
38 Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house,
and shut up the house seven days:
39 And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look:
and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house;
40 Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in
which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place
without the city:
41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and
they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city
into an unclean place:
42 And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of
those stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the
house.
43 And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after
that he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the
house, and after it is plaistered;
44 Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if the plague be
spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house: it is
unclean.
45 And he shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber
thereof, and all the morter of the house; and he shall carry them
forth out of the city into an unclean place.
46 Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut
up shall be unclean until the even.
47 And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes; and he that
eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
48 And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and, behold, the
plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered:
then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is
healed.
49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood,
and scarlet, and hyssop:
50 And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over
running water:
51 And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet,
and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and
in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times:
52 And he shall cleanse 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 scarlet:
53 But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open
fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.
54 This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,
55 And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
56 And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot:
57 To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean: this is the law
of leprosy. |
