Leviticus 13:18-28

¹⁸The flesh and the skin, in which a botch is bred, and is healed,

¹⁹and the place of the botch, or a fell sore, appeareth white, either red, the man shall be brought to the priest;

²⁰and when the priest seeth the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hairs turned into whiteness, the priest shall defoul him, that is, deem him foul; for the wound or the plague of leprosy is bred or sprung in the botch.

²¹That if the hair is of the former colour, and the sign of the wound is some-deal dark, and is not lower than the flesh beside, the priest shall enclose the man seven days;

²²and soothly, if his sore waxeth, the priest shall deem the man to be a leper;

²³forsooth if it standeth in his place, it is a sign of a botch, and the man shall be clean.

²⁴Flesh, and skin, which the fire hath burnt, and is healed, and hath a white, either red, sign of wound, the priest shall behold it,

²⁵and lo! if it is turned into white-ness, and the place thereof is lower than the tother skin, the priest shall defoul the man, for a wound or the plague of leprosy is bred or sprung in the sign of wound.

²⁶That if the colour of the hairs is not changed, neither the wound, or soreness, is lower than the tother flesh, and that species of leprosy is some-deal dark, the priest shall enclose the man seven days;

²⁷and in the seventh day he shall behold him; if the leprosy waxeth in the flesh, the priest shall defoul the man;

²⁸else if the whiteness standeth in his place, and is not clear enough, it is a wound, or soreness, of burning, and therefore the man shall be cleansed, for it is a sign of burning.
