LEVITICU S. 14--7 14-32 cedar wood, and the scarlet wool, and the hysop, and sprinkle them and the living bird in the blood of the slain bird and the living water, and also upon the man cleansed from the infection, seven times, and declare him clean, and send the living bird out into the open field. Afterwards the cleansed man shall wash his clothes, and shave his head, and bathe in water, and be clean, and after that go into the camp. He shall however keep out of his tent-for seven days. But on the seventh day he shall shave the whole of his head, both the head and his beard, and his eyebrows; he shall also shave the whole of his hair, and wash his clothes and bathe his

10 body in water, and be clean. Upon the eighth day he shall also take two perfect he lambs,·and a perfect ewe lamb of one year, and three tenths 11 16 18 of Hour mixed with oil as a food—offer— ing, and one log of oil, and the priest shall station the cleansed man, or the cleansed woman, before the presence of the EvER—L1vxNG, at the door of the Hall of Assembly. ‘ Then the priest shall take one of

the he lambs and present it as a tres- pass-offering, with the log of oil, and wave them before the Evamuvxmo, and slay the lamb in the place where they slay the simoffering, and the burnt·offeri11gs, in the Holy Place; for, as a sin—ol“fering, the trespassoffering shall be Holy of Holies to the priest. The priest shall also take some of the blood of the trespassoffering and place upon the tip of the right ear of the recovered man, and upon the thumb, of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot. Then let the priest take some of the log of oil and pour it into the palm of the priest’s left hand, and dip the right hand of the priest in the oil that is in his left hand palm, and sprinkle the oil seven times with his finger before the Even-mvruo, and from the rest of the oil that is in his palm, the priest shall put some upon the tip of the right ear, of the restored person, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, with some of the blood of the trespass·offering. And the rest of the oilithat is. in the palm of the priest, he shall put upon the head of the recovered persian.-—'I`hus shall the priest expiate for him before the Evsx—r.1vmo. 1`he priest shall also make a xg sin-odering, and expiate for the re- covered man for his sins, and slay a burnt-offering for him. Thus 20 the priest shall oder up the burnt- olfering, and the food-offering on the altar, and expiate for him. The priest shall afterwards declare him clean. ‘ But if he is poor, and has no pro-

perty, then he shall take a single he lamb for a trespass-odering to wave, to expiate for himself, and a tenth of flour mixed with oil for a foocl~offerin g, and a. log of oil ; or two turtle·doves or two young pigeons, whichever he may possess, and one shall be for a sinéoffering, and the other for a burnt- 2I 22

offering. He shall bring them upon 23 the eighth day after his recovery to the priest, at the door of the Hall of Assembly, to present to the EVER- Lxvmo. Then the priest shall take the lamb for a trespassoffering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them before the EVER-LIVING, and slay the lamb for a trespass-offers ing. Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass~offering and put it upon the tip of the right ear of the recovered person, and upon the thumb of the right hand, and upon the great toe of the right foot. The priest shall also pour some of the `oil into the priest’s left hand palm, andthe priest shall sprinkle with his right foreiinger some of the oil which is in his left palm, seven times before the EvER—L1V1NG. Then the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his left palm upon the tip of the right ear of the recovered per- son, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, on the place for the blood of the trespass—offering. But the rest of the oil that is in the palm. of the priest he shall put upon the head of the recovered person, to expiate for him before the EvER—1.1vxNG. Or he shall take one of the turtle-doves, or young pigeons, which he possesses; which he holds in his hand ;-—-the

one for a sinsoffering, and the other for a burnt·offering, with the food- offering.—Thus the priest shall ex- piate for the recovered person before the EvBR·L1V1NG. ‘These are the laws about those

attacked by contagious disease, who do not possess enough for the regular purification. 108 26
