46 Any who enter the house while it is locked up will be unclean until evening.
47 Any who lie down or eat in the house must wash their clothes.
48 If, when the priest comes to look, the mildew has not reappeared after the house has been replastered, he shall pronounce the house ritually clean, because the mildew has been completely removed.
49 To purify the house, he shall take two birds, some cedar wood, a red cord, and a sprig of hyssop.
50 He shall kill one of the birds over a clay bowl containing fresh spring water.
51 Then he shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the red cord, and the live bird and shall dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed and in the fresh water. And he shall sprinkle the house seven times.
52 In this way he shall purify the house with the bird's blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the red cord.
