16. then, dipping his right finger in the oil on his left palm, he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the Lord.
17. Of the oil left in his hand the priest shall put some on the lobe of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand, and the big toe of the right foot of the person being purified, over the blood of the reparation offering.
18. The rest of the oil in his hand the priest shall put on the head of the one being purified. Thus shall the priest make atonement for the individual before the Lord.
19. The priest shall next offer the purification offering, thus making atonement on behalf of the one being purified from the uncleanness. After this the burnt offering shall be slaughtered.
20. The priest shall offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar before the Lord. Thus shall the priest make atonement for the person, and the individual will become clean.
21. If a person is poor and cannot afford so much, that person shall take one male lamb for a reparation offering, to be used as an elevated offering in atonement, one tenth of an ephah of bran flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, a log of oil,
22. and two turtledoves or pigeons, which the individual can more easily afford, the one as a purification offering and the other as a burnt offering.
23. On the eighth day of purification the person shall bring them to the priest, at the entrance of the tent of meeting before the Lord.
24. Taking the lamb of the reparation offering, along with the log of oil, the priest shall raise them as an elevated offering before the Lord.
25. When the lamb of the reparation offering has been slaughtered, the priest shall take some of its blood, and put it on the lobe of the right ear, on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of the right foot of the person being purified.
26. The priest shall then pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand
27. and with his right finger sprinkle some of the oil in his left palm seven times before the Lord.
