Leviticus 13:3-46
3And the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on the plagueH5061 in the skinH5785 of the fleshH1320: and when the hairH8181 in the plagueH5061 is turnedH2015 whiteH3836, and the plagueH5061 in sightH4758 be deeperH6013 than the skinH5785 of his fleshH1320, it is a plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883: and the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on him, and pronounce him uncleanH2930. 4If the bright spotH934 be whiteH3836 in the skinH5785 of his fleshH1320, and in sightH4758 be not deeperH6013 than the skinH5785, and the hairH8181 thereof be not turnedH2015 whiteH3836; then the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 up him that hath the plagueH5061 sevenH7651 daysH3117: 5And the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on him the seventhH7637 dayH3117: and, behold, if the plagueH5061 in his sightH5869 be at a stayH5975, and the plagueH5061 spreadH6581 not in the skinH5785; then the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 him up sevenH7651 daysH3117 moreH8145: 6And the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on him againH8145 the seventhH7637 dayH3117: and, behold, if the plagueH5061 be somewhat darkH3544, and the plagueH5061 spreadH6581 not in the skinH5785, the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891: it is but a scabH4556: and he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be cleanH2891. 7But if the scabH4556 spread muchH6581 abroadH6581 in the skinH5785, afterH310 that he hath been seenH7200 of the priestH3548 for his cleansingH2893, he shall be seenH7200 of the priestH3548 againH8145: 8And if the priestH3548 seeH7200 that, behold, the scabH4556 spreadethH6581 in the skinH5785, then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is a leprosyH6883.
9When the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883 is in a manH120, then he shall be broughtH935 unto the priestH3548; 10And the priestH3548 shall seeH7200 him: and, behold, if the risingH7613 be whiteH3836 in the skinH5785, and it have turnedH2015 the hairH8181 whiteH3836, and there be quickH4241 rawH2416 fleshH1320 in the risingH7613;1 11It is an oldH3462 leprosyH6883 in the skinH5785 of his fleshH1320, and the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930, and shall not shutH5462 him up: for he is uncleanH2931. 12And if a leprosyH6883 break outH6524 abroadH6524 in the skinH5785, and the leprosyH6883 coverH3680 all the skinH5785 of him that hath the plagueH5061 from his headH7218 even to his footH7272, wheresoever the priestH3548 lookethH5869H4758; 13Then the priestH3548 shall considerH7200: and, behold, if the leprosyH6883 have coveredH3680 all his fleshH1320, he shall pronounce him cleanH2891 that hath the plagueH5061: it is all turnedH2015 whiteH3836: he is cleanH2889. 14But whenH3117 rawH2416 fleshH1320 appearethH7200 in him, he shall be uncleanH2930. 15And the priestH3548 shall seeH7200 the rawH2416 fleshH1320, and pronounce him to be uncleanH2930: for the rawH2416 fleshH1320 is uncleanH2931: it is a leprosyH6883. 16Or if the rawH2416 fleshH1320 turn againH7725, and be changedH2015 unto whiteH3836, he shall comeH935 unto the priestH3548; 17And the priestH3548 shall seeH7200 him: and, behold, if the plagueH5061 be turnedH2015 into whiteH3836; then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891 that hath the plagueH5061: he is cleanH2889.
18The fleshH1320 also, in whichH3588, even in the skinH5785 thereof, was a boilH7822, and is healedH7495, 19And in the placeH4725 of the boilH7822 there be a whiteH3836 risingH7613, or a bright spotH934, whiteH3836, and somewhat reddishH125, and it be shewedH7200 to the priestH3548; 20And if, when the priestH3548 seethH7200 it, behold, it be in sightH4758 lowerH8217 than the skinH5785, and the hairH8181 thereof be turnedH2015 whiteH3836; the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is a plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883 brokenH6524 out of the boilH7822. 21But if the priestH3548 lookH7200 on it, and, behold, there be no whiteH3836 hairsH8181 therein, and if it be not lowerH8217 than the skinH5785, but be somewhat darkH3544; then the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 him up sevenH7651 daysH3117: 22And if it spread muchH6581 abroadH6581 in the skinH5785, then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is a plagueH5061. 23But if the bright spotH934 stayH5975 in his place, and spreadH6581 not, it is a burningH6867 boilH7822; and the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891.
24Or if there be any fleshH1320, in the skinH5785 whereof there is a hotH784 burningH4348, and the quickH4241 flesh that burnethH4348 have a whiteH3836 bright spotH934, somewhat reddishH125, or whiteH3836;2 25Then the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 upon it: and, behold, if the hairH8181 in the bright spotH934 be turnedH2015 whiteH3836, and it be in sightH4758 deeperH6013 than the skinH5785; it is a leprosyH6883 brokenH6524 out of the burningH4348: wherefore the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883. 26But if the priestH3548 lookH7200 on it, and, behold, there be no whiteH3836 hairH8181 in the bright spotH934, and it be no lowerH8217 than the other skinH5785, but be somewhat darkH3544; then the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 him up sevenH7651 daysH3117: 27And the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 upon him the seventhH7637 dayH3117: and if it be spread muchH6581 abroadH6581 in the skinH5785, then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883. 28And if the brightH934 spotH934 stayH5975 in his place, and spreadH6581 not in the skinH5785, but it be somewhat darkH3544; it is a risingH7613 of the burningH4348, and the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891: for it is an inflammationH6867 of the burningH4348.
29If a manH376 or womanH802 have a plagueH5061 upon the headH7218 or the beardH2206; 30Then the priestH3548 shall seeH7200 the plagueH5061: and, behold, if it be in sightH4758 deeperH6013 than the skinH5785; and there be in it a yellowH6669 thinH1851 hairH8181; then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him uncleanH2930: it is a dry scallH5424, even a leprosyH6883 upon the headH7218 or beardH2206. 31And if the priestH3548 lookH7200 on the plagueH5061 of the scallH5424, and, behold, it be not in sightH4758 deeperH6013 than the skinH5785, and that there is no blackH7838 hairH8181 in it; then the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 up him that hath the plagueH5061 of the scallH5424 sevenH7651 daysH3117: 32And in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on the plagueH5061: and, behold, if the scallH5424 spreadH6581 not, and there be in it no yellowH6669 hairH8181, and the scallH5424 be not in sightH4758 deeperH6013 than the skinH5785; 33He shall be shavenH1548, but the scallH5424 shall he not shaveH1548; and the priestH3548 shall shutH5462 up him that hath the scallH5424 sevenH7651 daysH3117 moreH8145: 34And in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on the scallH5424: and, behold, if the scallH5424 be not spreadH6581 in the skinH5785, nor be in sightH4758 deeperH6013 than the skinH5785; then the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891: and he shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be cleanH2891. 35But if the scallH5424 spreadH6581 muchH6581 in the skinH5785 afterH310 his cleansingH2893; 36Then the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 on him: and, behold, if the scallH5424 be spreadH6581 in the skinH5785, the priestH3548 shall not seekH1239 for yellowH6669 hairH8181; he is uncleanH2931. 37But if the scallH5424 be in his sightH5869 at a stayH5975, and that there is blackH7838 hairH8181 grownH6779 up therein; the scallH5424 is healedH7495, he is cleanH2889: and the priestH3548 shall pronounce him cleanH2891.
38If a manH376 also or a womanH802 have in the skinH5785 of their fleshH1320 bright spotsH934, even whiteH3836 bright spotsH934; 39Then the priestH3548 shall lookH7200: and, behold, if the bright spotsH934 in the skinH5785 of their fleshH1320 be darkishH3544 whiteH3836; it is a freckled spotH933 that growethH6524 in the skinH5785; he is cleanH2889. 40And the manH3588H376 whose hair is fallenH4803 off his headH7218, he is baldH7142; yet is he cleanH2889.3 41And he that hath his hair fallenH4803 off from the partH6285 of his headH7218 toward his faceH6440, he is forehead baldH1371: yet is he cleanH2889. 42And if there be in the bald headH7146, or bald foreheadH1372, a whiteH3836 reddishH125 soreH5061; it is a leprosyH6883 sprungH6524 up in his bald headH7146, or his bald foreheadH1372. 43Then the priestH3548 shall lookH7200 upon it: and, behold, if the risingH7613 of the soreH5061 be whiteH3836 reddishH125 in his bald headH7146, or in his bald foreheadH1372, as the leprosyH6883 appearethH4758 in the skinH5785 of the fleshH1320; 44He is a leprousH6879 manH376, he is uncleanH2931: the priestH3548 shall pronounce him utterlyH2930 uncleanH2930; his plagueH5061 is in his headH7218. 45And the leperH6879 in whom the plagueH5061 is, his clothesH899 shall be rentH6533, and his headH7218 bareH6544, and he shall put a coveringH5844 upon his upper lipH8222, and shall cryH7121, UncleanH2931, uncleanH2931. 46All the daysH3117 wherein the plagueH5061 shall be in him he shall be defiledH2930; he is uncleanH2931: he shall dwellH3427 aloneH910; withoutH2351 the campH4264 shall his habitationH4186 be.
