New Living Translation (NLT)
Leviticus 14
51 He will take the cedar stick, the hyssop branch, the scarlet yarn, and the live bird, and dip them into the blood of the slaughtered bird and into the fresh water. Then he will sprinkle the house seven times.
52 When the priest has purified the house in exactly this way,
53 he will release the live bird in the open fields outside the town. Through this process, the priest will purify the house, and it will be ceremonially clean.
54 “These are the instructions for dealing with serious skin diseases, including scabby sores;
55 and mildew, whether on clothing or in a house;
56 and a swelling on the skin, a rash, or discolored skin.
57 This procedure will determine whether a person or object is ceremonially clean or unclean. “These are the instructions regarding skin diseases and mildew.”
Leviticus 15
1 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
2 “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. “Any man who has a bodily discharge is ceremonially unclean.
3 This defilement is caused by his discharge, whether the discharge continues or stops. In either case the man is unclean.
4 Any bed on which the man with the discharge lies and anything on which he sits will be ceremonially unclean.
