Leviticus 14:29-45 Amplified Bible (AMP)

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

30. And he shall offer one of the turtledoves or of the young pigeons, such as he is able to get,

31. As he can afford, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, together with the cereal offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before the Lord.

32. This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy, who is not able to get what is required for his cleansing.

33. And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

34. When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put the disease of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession,

35. Then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, It seems to me there is some sort of disease in my house.

36. Then the priest shall command that they empty the house before [he] goes in to examine the disease, so that all that is in the house may not be declared unclean; afterward [he] shall go in to see the house.

37. He shall examine the disease, and if it is in the walls of the house with depressed spots of dark green or dark red appearing beneath [the surface of] the wall,

38. Then the priest shall go out of the door and shut up the house seven days.

39. The priest shall come again on the seventh day and shall look; and if the disease has spread in the walls of the house,

40. He shall command that they take out the diseased stones and cast them into an unclean place outside the city.

41. He shall cause the house to be scraped within round about and the plaster or mortar that is scraped off to be emptied out in an unclean place outside the city.

42. And they shall put other stones in the place of those stones, and he shall plaster the house with fresh mortar.

43. If the disease returns, breaking out in the house after he has removed the stones and has scraped and plastered the house,

44. Then the priest shall come and look, and if the disease is spreading in the house, it is a rotting or corroding leprosy in the house; it is unclean.

45. He shall tear down the house–its stones and its timber and all the plaster or mortar of the house–and shall carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
