31. as the sin offering and the other as the burnt offering with the grain offering. In this way the priest shall perform the ritual of purification.

32. This is the law for the one who has a dreaded skin disease but who cannot afford the normal offerings required for his purification.

33. The Lord gave Moses and Aaron

34-35. the following regulations about houses affected by spreading mildew. (These were to apply after the people of Israel entered the land of Canaan, which the Lord was going to give them as their possession.) If someone finds that the Lord has sent mildew on his house, then he must go and tell the priest about it.

36. The priest shall order everything to be moved out of the house before he goes to examine the mildew; otherwise everything in the house will be declared unclean. Then he shall go to the house

37. and examine the mildew. If there are greenish or reddish spots that appear to be eating into the wall,

38. he shall leave the house and lock it up for seven days.
