21 "But if he is poor and cannot afford so much, then he shall take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a cereal offering, and a log of oil;

 

22 also two turtledoves or two young pigeons, such as he can afford; the one shall be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

 

23 And on the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the tent of meeting, before YHVH;

 

24 and the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before YHVH.

 

25 And he shall kill the lamb of the guilt offering; and the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering, and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.

 

26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand;

 

27 and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before YHVH;

 

28 and the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and the great toe of his right foot, in the place where the blood of the guilt offering was put;

 

29 and the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before YHVH.

 

30 And he shall offer, of the turtledoves or young pigeons such as he can afford,

 

31 one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, along with a cereal offering; and the priest shall make atonement before YHVH for him who is being cleansed.

 

32 This is the law for him in whom is a leprous disease, who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing."

 

33 YHVH said to Moses and Aaron,

 

34 "When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for a possession, and I put a leprous disease in a house in the land of your possession,

 

35 then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, 'There seems to me to be some sort of disease in my house.'

 

36 Then the priest shall command that they empty the house before the priest goes to examine the disease, lest all that is in the house be declared unclean; and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house.

 

37 And he shall examine the disease; and if the disease is in the walls of the house with greenish or reddish spots, and if it appears to be deeper than the surface,

 

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 on the seventh day, and look; and if the disease has spread in the walls of the house,

 

40 then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the disease and throw them into an unclean place outside the city;

 

41 and he shall cause the inside of the house to be scraped round about, and the plaster that they scrape off they shall pour into an unclean place outside the city;

 

42 then they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and he shall take other plaster and plaster the house.
