1 The Lord spoke to Moses. He told him to say to the people, 2 "Here are the rules for making someone 'clean' if he has had a skin disease. They apply when he is brought to the priest. 3 "The priest must go outside the camp. He must look the person over carefully. Suppose he has been healed of his skin disease. 4 Then the priest will order someone to bring him two live 'clean' birds. He will also order someone to bring him some cedar wood, bright red yarn and branches of a hyssop plant. All of those things will be used to make the person 'clean.' 5 "The priest will order someone to kill one of the birds. It must be killed over fresh water in a clay pot. 6 Then the priest must take the live bird. He must dip it into the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water. He must dip it into the blood together with the cedar wood, the bright red yarn and the hyssop plant. 7 "The priest will sprinkle the blood on the person who had the skin disease. That will make him 'clean.' The priest must sprinkle him seven times. Then the priest must announce that he is 'clean.' After that, the priest must let the live bird go free in the open fields.
