33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
34 When ye come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a leprous plague in a house of the land of your possession,
Whenever you shall enter into the land of the Chananites, which I give you for a possession, and I shall put the plague of leprosy in the houses of the land of your possession;
35 then he whose house it is shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me like a plague in the house;
then the owner of the house shall come and report to the priest, saying, I have seen as it were a plague in the house.
36 and 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 afterwards the priest shall go in to see the house.
And the priest shall give orders to remove the furniture of the house, before the priest comes in to see the plague, and [thus] none of the things in the house shall become unclean; and afterwards the priest shall go in to examine the house.
37 And when he looketh on the plague, and behold, the plague is in the walls of the house, greenish or reddish hollows, and their look is deeper than the surface of the wall,
And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, [if] the plague is in the walls of the house, [he will see] greenish or reddish cavities, and the appearance of them [will be] beneath the surface of the walls.
38 then the priest shall go out of the house to the entrance of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
And the priest shall come out of the house to the door of the house, and the priest shall separate the house seven days.
39 And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and when he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the walls of the house,
And the priest shall return on the seventh day and view the house; and, behold, [if] the plague is 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 out of the city, in an unclean place.
then the priest shall give orders, and they shall take away the stones in which the plague is, and shall cast them out of the city into an unclean place.
41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall pour out the mortar that they have scraped off, out of the city in an unclean place.
And they shall scrape the house within round about, and shall pour out the dust scraped off outside the city into an unclean place.
42 And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and they shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.
And they shall take other scraped stones, and put them in the place of the [former] stones, and they shall take other plaster and plaster the house.
43 And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plastered,
And if the plague should return again, and break out in the house after they have taken away the stones and after the house is scraped, and after it has been plastered,
44 then the priest shall come, and when he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the house, it is a corroding leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
then the priest shall go in and see if the plague is spread in the house: it is a confirmed leprosy in the house, it is unclean.
45 And they shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber thereof, and all the mortar of the house, and shall carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
And they shall take down the house, and its timbers and its stones, and they shall carry out all the mortar without the city into an unclean place.
46 And he that goeth into the house as long as it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.

47 And he that sleepeth in the house shall wash his garments, and he that eateth in the house shall wash his garments.
And he that sleeps in the house shall wash his garments, and be unclean until evening; and he that eats in the house shall wash his garments, and be unclean until evening.
48 But if the priest shall come in and look, and behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house hath been plastered, the priest shall pronounce the house clean; for the plague is healed.
and if the priest shall arrive and enter and see, and behold the plague be not at all spread in the house after the house has been plastered, then the priest shall declare the house clean, because the plague is healed.
49 And he shall take, to purge the house from the defilement, two birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop;
And he shall take to purify the house two clean living birds, and cedar wood, and spun scarlet, and hyssop.
50 and he shall kill one bird in an earthen vessel over running water;
And he shall kill one bird 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 bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times;
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 slain over running water, and with them he shall sprinkle the house seven times.
52 and he shall purge the house from the defilement 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;
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.
53 and he shall let the living bird loose out of the city into the open field; and he shall make atonement for the house, and it is clean.
And he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the field, and shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.
54 This is the law for every sore of leprosy, and for the scall,
This [is] the law concerning every plague of leprosy and scurf,
55 and for the leprosy of garments, and of houses,
and of the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
56 and for the rising, and for the scab, and for the bright spot,
and of a sore, and of a clear spot, and of a shining one,
57 to teach when there is uncleanness, and when it is purified: this is the law of leprosy.
and of declaring in what day it is unclean, and in what day it shall be purged: this [is] the law of the leprosy.
