Leviticus 14:14-28 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

14. The priest is to take some of the blood from the restitution offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

15. Then the priest will take some of the one-third quart of olive oil and pour it into his left palm.

16. The priest will dip his right finger into the oil in his left palm and sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord.

17. From the oil remaining in his palm the priest will put some on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the restitution offering.

18. What is left of the oil in the priest’s palm he is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed. In this way the priest will make atonement for him before the Lord.

19. The priest must sacrifice the sin offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness. Afterward he will slaughter the burnt offering.

20. The priest is to offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. The priest will make atonement for him, and he will be clean.

21. “But if he is poor and cannot afford these, he is to take one male lamb for a restitution offering to be waved in order to make atonement for him, along with two quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, one-third of a quart of olive oil,

22. and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whatever he can afford, one to be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

23. On the eighth day he is to bring these things for his cleansing to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting before the Lord.

24. The priest will take the male lamb for the restitution offering and the one-third quart of olive oil, and wave them as a presentation offering before the Lord.

25. After he slaughters the male lamb for the restitution offering, the priest is to take some of the blood of the restitution offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

26. Then the priest will pour some of the oil into his left palm.

27. With his right finger the priest will sprinkle some of the oil in his left palm seven times before the Lord.

28. The priest will also put some of the oil in his palm on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the same place as the blood of the restitution offering.
