1. The Lord said to Moses:
2. This is the ritual for someone that had a scaly infection at the time of that person’s purification. The individual shall be brought to the priest,
3. who is to go outside the camp. If the priest, upon inspection, finds that the scaly infection has healed in the afflicted person,
4. he shall order that two live, clean birds, as well as some cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop be obtained for the one who is to be purified.
5. The priest shall then order that one of the birds be slaughtered over an earthen vessel with fresh water in it.
6. Taking the living bird with the cedar wood, the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, the priest shall dip them, including the live bird, in the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over the fresh water,
