21 “If he is poor and cannot afford so much, then he should take one male lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, plus one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil for a grain offering, a pint of oil, 22 two turtledoves or two young pigeons, such as he is able to afford. The one should be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

23 “On the eighth day he is to bring them to the kohen for his cleansing, at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting before Adonai. 24 The kohen is to take the lamb of the trespass offering and the pint of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before Adonai. 25 He is to slaughter the lamb of the trespass offering. The kohen is to take some of the blood of the trespass offering and dab it on the tip of the right ear of the one being cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. 26 The kohen should then pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand. 27 He is to sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before Adonai. 28 Then the kohen is to dab some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of the one being cleansed, also on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the place of the blood of the trespass offering. 29 The rest of the oil that is in his hand the kohen is to dab on the head of the one being cleansed, to make atonement for him before Adonai. 30 He is to offer one of the turtledoves or the young pigeons, from what his hand can afford, 31 the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the grain offering. The kohen should make atonement for him being cleansed before Adonai.”

32 This is the Torah for one on who is the mark of tza’arat, who is not able to afford the sacrifice for his cleansing.

21 “If, however, they are poor(A) and cannot afford these,(B) they must take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make atonement for them, together with a tenth of an ephah[a] of the finest flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of oil, 22 and two doves or two young pigeons,(C) such as they can afford, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.(D)

23 “On the eighth day they must bring them for their cleansing to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting,(E) before the Lord.(F) 24 The priest is to take the lamb for the guilt offering,(G) together with the log of oil,(H) and wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.(I) 25 He shall slaughter the lamb for the guilt offering and take some of its blood and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot.(J) 26 The priest is to pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand,(K) 27 and with his right forefinger sprinkle some of the oil from his palm seven times before the Lord. 28 Some of the oil in his palm he is to put on the same places he put the blood of the guilt offering—on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot. 29 The rest of the oil in his palm the priest shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for them before the Lord.(L) 30 Then he shall sacrifice the doves or the young pigeons, such as the person can afford,(M) 31 one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering,(N) together with the grain offering. In this way the priest will make atonement before the Lord on behalf of the one to be cleansed.(O)

32 These are the regulations for anyone who has a defiling skin disease(P) and who cannot afford the regular offerings(Q) for their cleansing.
