When a man shallhave in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or brightspot, and it be in the skin of his fleshlike the plague of leprosy; then he shall be broughtuntoAaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
And the priestshalllook on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turnedwhite, and the plague in sight be deeperthan the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priestshalllook on him, and pronounce him unclean.
If the brightspot be white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight be not deeperthan the skin, and the hairthereof be not turnedwhite; then the priestshallshut up him thathath the plaguesevendays:
And the priestshalllook on him the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plaguespread not in the skin; then the priestshallshut him up sevendaysmore:
And the priestshalllook on him again the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague be somewhatdark, and the plaguespread not in the skin, the priestshallpronounce him clean: it is but a scab: and he shallwash his clothes, and be clean.
And the priestshall see him: and, behold, if the rising be white in the skin, and it haveturned the hairwhite, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising;
And if a leprosybreak out abroad in the skin, and the leprosycover all the skin of him thathath the plaguefrom his headeven to his foot, wheresoever the priestlooketh;
Then the priestshallconsider: and, behold, if the leprosyhavecovered all his flesh, he shallpronounce him cleanthathath the plague: it is all turnedwhite: he is clean.
And if, when the priestseeth it, behold, it be in sightlowerthan the skin, and the hairthereof be turnedwhite; the priestshallpronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosybroken out of the boil.
But if the priestlook on it, and, behold, there be no whitehairstherein, and if it be not lowerthan the skin, but be somewhatdark; then the priestshallshut him up sevendays:
Then the priestshalllookupon it: and, behold, if the hair in the brightspot be turnedwhite, and it be in sightdeeperthan the skin; it is a leprosybroken out of the burning: wherefore the priestshallpronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
But if the priestlook on it, and, behold, there be no whitehair in the brightspot, and it be no lowerthan the otherskin, but be somewhatdark; then the priestshallshut him up sevendays:
And the priestshalllookupon him the seventh day: and if it be spreadmuchabroad in the skin, then the priestshallpronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
And if the brightspotstay in his place, and spread not in the skin, but it be somewhatdark; it is a rising of the burning, and the priestshallpronounce him clean: for it is an inflammation of the burning.
Then the priestshall see the plague: and, behold, if it be in sightdeeperthan the skin; and there be in it a yellowthinhair; then the priestshallpronounce him unclean: it is a dry scall, even a leprosyupon the head or beard.
And if the priestlook on the plague of the scall, and, behold, it be not in sightdeeperthan the skin, and thatthere is no blackhair in it; then the priestshallshut up him thathath the plague of the scallsevendays:
And in the seventh day the priestshalllook on the plague: and, behold, if the scallspread not, and there be in it no yellowhair, and the scall be not in sightdeeperthan the skin;
And in the seventh day the priestshalllook on the scall: and, behold, if the scall be not spread in the skin, nor be in sightdeeperthan the skin; then the priestshallpronounce him clean: and he shallwash his clothes, and be clean.
But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and thatthere is blackhairgrown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean: and the priestshallpronounce him clean.
Then the priestshalllook: and, behold, if the brightspots in the skin of theirflesh be darkishwhite; it is a freckledspotthatgroweth in the skin; he is clean.
Then the priestshalllookupon it: and, behold, if the rising of the sore be whitereddish in his baldhead, or in his baldforehead, as the leprosyappeareth in the skin of the flesh;
And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothesshall be rent, and his headbare, and he shall put a coveringupon his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be shewedunto the priest:
And he shalllook on the plague on the seventh day: if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any workthat is made of skin; the plague is a frettingleprosy; it is unclean.
He shallthereforeburnthatgarment, whetherwarp or woof, in woollen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a frettingleprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
And the priestshalllook on the plague, afterthat it is washed: and, behold, if the plaguehave not changed his colour, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; thoushaltburn it in the fire; it is fretinward, whether it be barewithin or without.
And if the priestlook, and, behold, the plague be somewhatdarkafter the washing of it; then he shallrend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
And if it appearstill in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreadingplague: thoushaltburnthatwherein the plague is withfire.
And the garment, eitherwarp, or woof, or whatsoeverthing of skin it be, whichthoushaltwash, if the plague be departedfromthem, then it shall be washed the secondtime, and shall be clean.
This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
