1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses , and unto Aaron , saying,
2
`When a man hath in the skin of his flesh a rising , or scab, or bright spot, and it hath become in the skin of his flesh a leprous plague, then he hath been brought in unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests ;
3
and the priest hath seen the plague in the skin of the flesh , and the hair in the plague hath turned white , and the appearance of the plague [is] deeper than the skin of his flesh -- it [is] a plague of leprosy , and the priest hath seen him, and hath pronounced him unclean .
4
`And if the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh , and its appearance is not deeper than the skin , and its hair hath not turned white , then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague seven days .
5
`And the priest hath seen him on the seventh day , and lo, the plague hath stood in his eyes , the plague hath not spread in the skin , and the priest hath shut him up a second seven days .
6
`And the priest hath seen him on the second seventh day , and lo, the plague is become weak, and the plague hath not spread in the skin -- and the priest hath pronounced him clean, it [is] a scab, and he hath washed his garments , and hath been clean.
7
`And if the scab spread greatly in the skin , after his being seen by the priest for his cleansing, then he hath been seen a second time by the priest;
8
and the priest hath seen , and lo, the scab hath spread in the skin , and the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; it [is] leprosy .
9
`When a plague of leprosy is in a man, then he hath been brought in unto the priest,
10
and the priest hath seen , and lo, a white rising in the skin , and it hath turned the hair white , and a quickening of raw flesh [is] in the rising , --
11
an old leprosy it [is] in the skin of his flesh , and the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; he doth not shut him up, for he [is] unclean .
12
`And if the leprosy break out greatly in the skin , and the leprosy hath covered all the skin of [him who hath] the plague, from his head even unto his feet , to all that appeareth to the eyes of the priest,
13
then hath the priest seen , and lo, the leprosy hath covered all his flesh , and he hath pronounced [him who hath] the plague clean ; it hath all turned white ; he [is] clean .
14
`And in the day of raw flesh being seen in him he is unclean ;
15
and the priest hath seen the raw flesh , and hath pronounced him unclean ; the raw flesh is unclean , it [is] leprosy .
16
Or when the raw flesh turneth back , and hath been turned to white , then he hath come in unto the priest,
17
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the plague hath been turned to white , and the priest hath pronounced clean [him who hath] the plague; he [is] clean .
18
`And when flesh hath in it, in its skin , an ulcer , and it hath been healed,
19
and there hath been in the place of the ulcer a white rising , or a bright white spot, very red, then it hath been seen by the priest,
20
and the priest hath seen , and lo, its appearance [is] lower than the skin , and its hair hath turned white , and the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; it [is] a plague of leprosy -- in an ulcer it hath broken out.
21
`And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair in it, and it is not lower than the skin , and is become weak, then hath the priest shut him up seven days ;
22
and if it spread greatly in the skin , then hath the priest pronounced him unclean , it [is] a plague;
23
and if in its place the bright spot stay -- it hath not spread -- it [is] an inflammation of the ulcer ; and the priest hath pronounced him clean.
24
`Or when flesh hath in its skin a fiery burning , and the quickening of the burning , the bright white spot, hath been very red or white ,
25
and the priest hath seen it, and lo, the hair hath turned white in the bright spot, and its appearance [is] deeper than the skin ; leprosy it [is], in the burning it hath broken out, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; it [is] a plague of leprosy .
26
`And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair on the bright spot, and it is not lower than the skin , and it is become weak, then the priest hath shut him up seven days ;
27
and the priest hath seen him on the seventh day , if it spread greatly in the skin , then the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; a plague of leprosy it [is].
28
`And if the bright spot stay in its place, it hath not spread in the skin , and is become weak; a rising of the burning it [is], and the priest hath pronounced him clean; for it [is] inflammation of the burning.
29
`And when a man (or a woman ) hath in him a plague in the head or in the beard ,
30
then hath the priest seen the plague, and lo, its appearance is deeper than the skin , and in it a thin shining hair , and the priest hath pronounced him unclean ; it [is] a scall -- it [is] a leprosy of the head or of the beard .
31
`And when the priest seeth the plague of the scall, and lo, its appearance is not deeper than the skin , and there is no black hair in it, then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague of the scall seven days .
32
`And the priest hath seen the plague on the seventh day , and lo, the scall hath not spread, and a shining hair hath not been in it, and the appearance of the scall is not deeper than the skin ,
33
then he hath shaved himself, but the scall he doth not shave ; and the priest hath shut up [him who hath] the scall a second seven days .
34
And the priest hath seen the scall on the seventh day , and lo, the scall hath not spread in the skin , and its appearance is not deeper than the skin , and the priest hath pronounced him clean, and he hath washed his garments , and hath been clean.
35
`And if the scall spread greatly in the skin after his cleansing,
36
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the scall hath spread in the skin , the priest seeketh not for the shining hair , he is unclean ;
37
and if in his eyes the scall hath stayed, and black hair hath sprung up in it, the scall hath been healed -- he [is] clean -- and the priest hath pronounced him clean .
38
`And when a man or woman hath in the skin of their flesh bright spots , white bright spots ,
39
and the priest hath seen , and lo, in the skin of their flesh white weak bright spots , it [is] a freckled spot broken out in the skin ; he [is] clean .
40
`And when a man 's head [is] polished, he [is] bald, he [is] clean ;
41
and if from the corner of his face his head is polished, he [is] bald of the forehead; he [is] clean .
42
`And when there is in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, a very red white plague, it [is] a leprosy breaking out in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead;
43
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the rising of the very red white plague in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, [is] as the appearance of leprosy , in the skin of the flesh ,
44
he [is] a leprous man , he [is] unclean ; the priest doth pronounce him utterly unclean ; his plague [is] in his head .
45
`As to the leper in whom [is] the plague, his garments are rent , and his head is uncovered , and he covereth over the upper lip, and `Unclean ! Unclean !' he calleth ;
46
all the days that the plague [is] in him he is unclean ; he [is] unclean , alone he doth dwell , at the outside of the camp [is] his dwelling .
47
`And when there is in any garment a plague of leprosy , -- in a garment of wool , or in a garment of linen ,
48
or in the warp, or in the woof, of linen or of wool , or in a skin , or in any work of skin ,
49
and the plague hath been very green or very red in the garment , or in the skin , or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin , it [is] a plague of leprosy , and it hath been shewn the priest.
50
`And the priest hath seen the plague, and hath shut up [that which hath] the plague, seven days ;
51
and he hath seen the plague on the seventh day , and the plague hath spread in the garment , or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin , of all that is made of skin for work ; the plague [is] a fretting leprosy , it [is] unclean .
52
`And he hath burnt the garment , or the warp, or the woof, in wool or in linen , or any vessel of skin in which the plague is; for it [is] a fretting leprosy ; with fire it is burnt.
53
`And if the priest see , and lo, the plague hath not spread in the garment , or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin ,
54
then hath the priest commanded , and they have washed that in which the plague [is], and he hath shut it up a second seven days .
55
And the priest hath seen [that which hath] the plague after it hath been washed, and lo, the plague hath not changed its aspect, and the plague hath not spread, -- it [is] unclean ; with fire thou dost burn it; it [is] a fretting in its back-part or in its front-part.
56
`And if the priest hath seen , and lo, the plague [is] become weak after it hath been washed, then he hath rent it out of the garment , or out of the skin , or out of the warp, or out of the woof;
57
and if it still be seen in the garment , or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin , it [is] a fretting; with fire thou dost burn it -- that in which the plague [is].
58
`And the garment , or the warp, or the woof, or any vessel of skin which thou dost wash when the plague hath turned aside from them, then it hath been washed a second time, and hath been clean.
59
`This [is] the law of a plague of leprosy [in] a garment of wool or of linen , or of the warp or of the woof, or of any vessel of skin , to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean .'
