Then he ¹  is to take two birds, a piece of cedar wood, a scrap of crimson fabric, and some twigs of hyssop ²  to decontaminate ³  the house,

I will give you your rains in their time so that ¹  the land will give its yield and the trees of the field will produce their fruit. ² 

then the priest will command that two live clean birds, a piece of cedar wood, a scrap of crimson fabric, ¹  and some twigs of hyssop ²  be taken up ³  for the one being cleansed. ⁴ 

Your strength will be used up in vain, your land will not give its yield, and the trees of the land ¹  will not produce their fruit.
