it is just a scab, and he shall wash his clothes and be clean. 7 But if the scab spreads over the skin after he has been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen by the priest again. 8 And if the priest sees that the scab has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is leprosy. 9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest. 10 And the priest shall examine him, and if the swelling is white in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling, 11 it is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean and shall not shut him up, for he is unclean. 12 And if leprosy breaks out all over the skin and covers all the skin of the one with the plague from his head to his foot, wherever the priest looks, 13 then the priest shall consider, and if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean who has the plague; it has all turned white; he is clean. 14 But when raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean. 15 And the priest shall examine the raw flesh and pronounce him unclean, for the raw flesh is unclean; it is leprosy. 16 Or if the raw flesh turns again and is changed to white, he shall come to the priest. 17 And the priest shall examine him, and if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean who has the plague; he is clean. 18 The flesh also in which there was a boil and it is healed, 19 and in the place of the boil there is a white swelling or a bright spot, reddish-white, it shall be shown to the priest. 20 And if, when the priest examines it, it looks deeper than the skin and the hair in it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a plague of leprosy that has broken out of the boil. 21 But if the priest looks on it and there are no white hairs in it and it is not deeper than the skin but is somewhat dark, then the priest shall shut him up for seven days. 22 And if it spreads much on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a plague. 23 But if the bright spot stays in its place and does not spread, it is the scar of the boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean. 24 Or if there is any flesh in the skin where there is a burn and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white, 25 then the priest shall examine it, and if the hair in the bright spot has turned white and it appears deeper than the skin, it is leprosy that has broken out from the burn; therefore, the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is the plague of leprosy. 26 But if the priest examines it and there is no white hair in the bright spot and it is not lower than the other skin but is somewhat dark, then the priest shall shut him up seven days. 27 And the priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and if it has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is the plague of leprosy. 28 And if the bright spot stays in its place and has not spread in the skin but is somewhat dark, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is an inflammation from the burn. 29 If a man or woman has a plague on the head or the beard, 30 then the priest shall examine the plague, and if it appears deeper than the skin and there is thin yellow hair, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a scaly leprosy on the head or beard. 31 And if the priest examines the plague of the scaly disease and it does not appear deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall shut up the one who has the plague of the scaly disease for seven days. 32 And on the seventh day, the priest shall examine the plague, and if the scaly disease has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it and it does not appear deeper than the skin, 33 he shall be shaved, but the scaly disease shall not be shaved, and the priest shall shut up the one who has the scaly disease seven more days. 34 And on the seventh day, the priest shall examine the scaly disease, and if it has not spread in the skin and does not appear deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean, and he shall wash his clothes and be clean. 35 But if the scaly disease spreads much in the skin after his cleansing, 36 then the priest shall examine him, and if the scaly disease has spread in the skin, the priest need not look for yellow hair; he is unclean. 37 But if the scaly disease appears at a standstill and black hair has grown in it, the scaly disease is healed, he is clean, and the priest shall pronounce him clean. 38 If a man or woman has bright spots in the skin of their flesh, even white bright spots, 39 then the priest shall examine them, and if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh are darkish white, it is a freckled spot that grows in the skin; he is clean. 40 And the man whose hair has fallen from his head, he is bald, yet he is clean. 41 And if his hair has fallen from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald, yet he is clean. 42 And if there is on the bald head or bald forehead a white reddish sore, it is leprosy that has sprung up on his bald head or bald forehead. 43 Then the priest shall examine it, and if the swelling of the sore is white reddish on his bald head or bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh, 44 he is a leprous man; he is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is on his head. 45 And the leper who has the plague, his clothes shall be torn and his head bare, he shall cover his upper lip and cry, 'Unclean, unclean.' 46 All the days that the plague is in him, he shall be defiled; he is unclean. He shall dwell alone; his dwelling shall be outside the camp.
