Bible in Basic English
"Then the priest is to give orders to take, for him who is to be made clean, two living clean birds and some cedar wood and red thread and hyssop."
— Leviticus 14:4, Bible in Basic English
“Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:”
And the Lord said to Moses,
This is the law of the leper on the day when he is made clean: he is to be taken to the priest;
And the priest is to go outside the tent-circle; and if, after looking, the priest sees that the mark of the disease has gone from him,
Then the priest is to give orders to take, for him who is to be made clean, two living clean birds and some cedar wood and red thread and hyssop.
And the priest will give orders for one of the birds to be put to death in a vessel made of earth, over flowing water.
And he will take the living bird and the wood and the red thread and the hyssop and put them in the blood of the bird which was put to death over flowing water.
And shaking it seven times over the man who is to be made clean, he will say that he is clean and will let the living bird go free into the open country.
