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.
• Lev 14:1-9 : 1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 This shall be the law of the leper on the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the priest: 3 And the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall examine him, and behold, if the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper; 4 Then the priest shall command to take for the one who is to be cleansed two living and clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop: 5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water: 6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water: 7 And he shall sprinkle upon him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field. 8 And he who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be clean: and after that he shall come into the camp, and shall stay outside of his tent seven days. 9 But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash his clothes, he shall also wash his flesh in water, and he shall be clean. 10 And on the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil, and one log of oil. 11 And the priest who makes him clean shall present the man who is to be made clean, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: 12 And the priest shall take one male lamb, and offer it for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: 13 And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he kills the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for, as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the trespass offering: it is most holy: 14 And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot: 15 And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand: 16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD: 17 And the rest of the oil that is in his hand, the priest shall put on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the blood of the trespass offering: 18 And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall pour on the head of him who is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD. 19 And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering: 20 And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the grain offering upon the altar: and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean. 21 And if he is poor and cannot afford so much, then he shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and a log of oil; 22 And two turtledoves or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get, and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering. 23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the LORD. 24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: 25 And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot: 26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand: 27 And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD: 28 And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass offering: 29 And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD. 30 And he shall offer one of the turtledoves or of the young pigeons, such as he can afford; 31 Even what he is able to get, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the grain offering: and the priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before the LORD. 32 This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy, whose hand is not able to get that which pertains to his cleansing.
