Leviticus 14:52-54

New International Reader's Version

⁵² The priest will use the blood and the water to make the house pure. He will use the live bird to make it pure. He will also use the cedar wood, the hyssop plant and the bright red yarn to make it pure. ⁵³ Then he must let the live bird go free in the open fields outside the town. In that way he will make the house pure. It will be ‘clean.’ ”

⁵⁴ These are the rules for skin diseases. They apply to sores.
