Leviticus:13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron ,
saying :
* "
When a man has on the skin of his body a swelling ,
a scab ,
or a bright spot ,
and it becomes on the skin of his body like a leprous sore ,
then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons the priests .
*
The priest shall examine the sore on the skin of the body ;
and if the hair on the sore has turned white ,
and the sore appears to be deeper than the skin of his body ,
it is a leprous sore .
Then the priest shall examine him ,
and pronounce him unclean .
*
But if the bright spot is white on the skin of his body ,
and does not appear to be deeper than the skin ,
and its hair has not turned white ,
then the priest shall isolate the one who has the sore seven days .
*
And the priest shall examine him on the seventh day ;
and indeed if the sore appears to be as it was ,
and the sore has not spread on the skin ,
then the priest shall isolate him another seven days .
*
Then the priest shall examine him again on the seventh day ;
and indeed if the sore has faded ,
and the sore has not spread on the skin ,
then the priest shall pronounce him clean ;
it is only a scab ,
and he shall wash his clothes and be clean .
*
But if the scab should at all spread over the skin ,
after he has been seen by the priest for his cleansing ,
he shall be seen by the priest again .
*
And if the priest sees that the scab has indeed spread on the skin ,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is leprosy .
* "
When the leprous sore is on a person ,
then he shall be brought to the priest .
*
And the priest shall examine him ;
and indeed if the swelling on the skin is white ,
and it has turned the hair white ,
and there is a spot of raw flesh in the swelling ,
*
it is an old leprosy on the skin of his body .
The priest shall pronounce him unclean ,
and shall not isolate him ,
for he is unclean .
* "
And if leprosy breaks out all over the skin ,
and the leprosy covers all the skin of the one who has the sore ,
from his head to his foot ,
wherever the priest looks ,
*
then the priest shall consider ;
and indeed if the leprosy has covered all his body ,
he shall pronounce him clean who has the sore .
It has all turned white .
He is clean .
*
But when raw flesh appears on him ,
he shall be unclean .
*
And the priest shall examine the raw flesh and pronounce him to be unclean ;
for the raw flesh is unclean .
It is leprosy .
*
Or if the raw flesh changes and turns white again ,
he shall come to the priest .
*
And the priest shall examine him ;
and indeed if the sore has turned white ,
then the priest shall pronounce him clean who has the sore .
He is clean .
* "
If the body develops a boil in the skin ,
and it is healed ,
*
and in the place of the boil there comes a white swelling or a bright spot ,
reddish-white ,
then it shall be shown to the priest ;
*
and if ,
when the priest sees it ,
it indeed appears deeper than the skin ,
and its hair has turned white ,
the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is a leprous sore which has broken out of the boil .
*
But if the priest examines it ,
and indeed there are no white hairs in it ,
and it is not deeper than the skin ,
but has faded ,
then the priest shall isolate him seven days ;
*
and if it should at all spread over the skin ,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is a leprous sore .
*
But if the bright spot stays in one place ,
and has not spread ,
it is the scar of the boil ;
and the priest shall pronounce him clean .
* "
Or if the body receives a burn on its skin by fire ,
and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot ,
reddish-white or white ,
*
then the priest shall examine it ;
and indeed if the hair of the bright spot has turned white ,
and it appears deeper than the skin ,
it is leprosy broken out in the burn .
Therefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is a leprous sore .
*
But if the priest examines it ,
and indeed there are no white hairs in the bright spot ,
and it is not deeper than the skin ,
but has faded ,
then the priest shall isolate him seven days .
*
And the priest shall examine him on the seventh day .
If it has at all spread over the skin ,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is a leprous sore .
*
But if the bright spot stays in one place ,
and has not spread on the skin ,
but has faded ,
it is a swelling from the burn .
The priest shall pronounce him clean ,
for it is the scar from the burn .
* "
If a man or woman has a sore on the head or the beard ,
*
then the priest shall examine the sore ;
and indeed if it appears deeper than the skin ,
and there is in it thin yellow hair ,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean .
It is a scaly leprosy of the head or beard .
*
But if the priest examines the scaly sore ,
and indeed it does not appear deeper than the skin ,
and there is no black hair in it ,
then the priest shall isolate the one who has the scale seven days .
*
And on the seventh day the priest shall examine the sore ;
and indeed if the scale has not spread ,
and there is no yellow hair in it ,
and the scale does not appear deeper than the skin ,
*
he shall shave himself ,
but the scale he shall not shave .
And the priest shall isolate the one who has the scale another seven days .
*
On the seventh day the priest shall examine the scale ;
and indeed if the scale has not spread over the skin ,
and does not appear deeper than the skin ,
then the priest shall pronounce him clean .
He shall wash his clothes and be clean .
*
But if the scale should at all spread over the skin after his cleansing ,
*
then the priest shall examine him ;
and indeed if the scale has spread over the skin ,
the priest need not seek for yellow hair .
He is unclean .
*
But if the scale appears to be at a standstill ,
and there is black hair grown up in it ,
the scale has healed .
He is clean ,
and the priest shall pronounce him clean .
* "
If a man or a woman has bright spots on the skin of the body ,
specifically white bright spots ,
*
then the priest shall look ;
and indeed if the bright spots on the skin of the body are dull white ,
it is a white spot that grows on the skin .
He is clean .
* "
As for the man whose hair has fallen from his head ,
he is bald ,
but he is clean .
*
He whose hair has fallen from his forehead ,
he is bald on the forehead ,
but he is clean .
*
And if there is on the bald head or bald forehead a reddish-white sore ,
it is leprosy breaking out on his bald head or his bald forehead .
*
Then the priest shall examine it ;
and indeed if the swelling of the sore is reddish-white on his bald head or on his bald forehead ,
as the appearance of leprosy on the skin of the body ,
*
he is a leprous man .
He is unclean .
The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean ;
his sore is on his head .
* "
Now the leper on whom the sore is ,
his clothes shall be torn and his head bare ;
and he shall cover his mustache ,
and cry , "
Unclean !
Unclean !'
*
He shall be unclean .
All the days he has the sore he shall be unclean .
He is unclean ,
and he shall dwell alone ;
his dwelling shall be outside the camp .
* "
Also ,
if a garment has a leprous plague in it ,
whether it is a woolen garment or a linen garment ,
*
whether it is in the warp or woof of linen or wool ,
whether in leather or in anything made of leather ,
*
and if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment or in the leather ,
whether in the warp or in the woof ,
or in anything made of leather ,
it is a leprous plague and shall be shown to the priest .
*
The priest shall examine the plague and isolate that which has the plague seven days .
*
And he shall examine the plague on the seventh day .
If the plague has spread in the garment ,
either in the warp or in the woof ,
in the leather or in anything made of leather ,
the plague is an active leprosy .
It is unclean .
*
He shall therefore burn that garment in which is the plague ,
whether warp or woof ,
in wool or in linen ,
or anything of leather ,
for it is an active leprosy ;
the garment shall be burned in the fire .
* "
But if the priest examines it ,
and indeed the plague has not spread in the garment ,
either in the warp or in the woof ,
or in anything made of leather ,
*
then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which is the plague ;
and he shall isolate it another seven days .
*
Then the priest shall examine the plague after it has been washed ;
and indeed if the plague has not changed its color ,
though the plague has not spread ,
it is unclean ,
and you shall burn it in the fire ;
it continues eating away ,
whether the damage is outside or inside .
*
If the priest examines it ,
and indeed the plague has faded after washing it ,
then he shall tear it out of the garment ,
whether out of the warp or out of the woof ,
or out of the leather .
*
But if it appears again in the garment ,
either in the warp or in the woof ,
or in anything made of leather ,
it is a spreading plague ;
you shall burn with fire that in which is the plague .
*
And if you wash the garment ,
either warp or woof ,
or whatever is made of leather ,
if the plague has disappeared from it ,
then it shall be washed a second time ,
and shall be clean .
* "
This is the law of the leprous plague in a garment of wool or linen ,
either in the warp or woof ,
or in anything made of leather ,
to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean ."
