Cleansing a Leprous House

Lev 14:33And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Lev 14:34When ye shall have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession;
Lev 14:35And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, it seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in the house:
Lev 14:36Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest shall enter to see the plague, that all that is in the house may not be made unclean; and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:
Lev 14:37And he shall look on the plague, and behold, if the plague is in the walls of the house, with hollow streaks, greenish, or reddish, which in sight are lower than the wall;
Lev 14:38Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days:
Lev 14:39And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look; and behold, if the plague is spread in the walls of the house;
Lev 14:40Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the city:
Lev 14:41And he shall cause the house to be scraped within on all sides, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an unclean place:
Lev 14:42And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.
Lev 14:43And if the plague shall return, and break out in the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plastered;
Lev 14:44Then the priest shall come and look; and behold, if the plague is spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
Lev 14:45And he shall break down the house, its stones, and its timber, and all the mortar of the house: and he shall carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
Lev 14:46Moreover, he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut up, shall be unclean until the evening.
Lev 14:47And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes: and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
Lev 14:48And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plastered: then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
Lev 14:49And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
Lev 14:50And he shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel, over running water:
Lev 14:51And he shall take the cedar-wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times:
Lev 14:52And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet:
Lev 14:53But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.
Lev 14:54This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,
Lev 14:55And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
Lev 14:56And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot:
Lev 14:57To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean: this is the law of leprosy.
