2 This is the rite for a leper, when he is to be cleansed. He shall be brought to the priest,
3 who, departing from the camp, when he has found the leprosy to be cleansed,
4 shall instruct him who is to be purified to offer for himself two living sparrows, which it is lawful to eat, and cedar wood, and vermillion, and hyssop.
5 And he shall order that one of the sparrows be immolated in an earthen vessel over living waters.
6 But the other living one, with the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, he shall dip in the blood of the immolated sparrow.
