Leviticus 13:18-36

¹⁸When also there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has been healed,

¹⁹And in the place of the ulcer, there appeareth a white scar, or somewhat red, the man shall be brought to the priest:

²⁰And when he shall see the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hair turned white, he shall declare him unclean, for the plague of leprosy is broken out in the ulcer.

²¹But if the hair be of the former colour, and the scar somewhat obscure, and be not lower than the flesh that is near it, he shall shut him up seven days.

²²And if it spread, he shall judge him to have the leprosy:

²³But if it stay in its place, it is but the scar of an ulcer, and the man shall be clean.

²⁴The flesh also and skin that hath been burnt, and after it is healed hath a white or a red scar,

²⁵The priest shall view it, and if he see it turned white, and the place thereof is lower than the other skin: he shall declare him unclean, because the evil of leprosy is broken out in the scar.

²⁶But if the colour of the hair be not changed, nor the blemish lower than the other flesh, and the appearance of the leprosy be somewhat obscure, he shall shut him up seven days,

²⁷And on the seventh day he shall view him: if the leprosy be grown farther in the skin, he shall declare him unclean.

²⁸But if the whiteness stay in its place, and be not very clear, it is the sore of a burning, and therefore he shall be cleansed, because it is only the scar of a burning.

²⁹If the leprosy break out in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the Priest shall see them,

³⁰And if the place be lower than the other flesh, and the hair yellow, and thinner than usual: he shall declare them unclean, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard;

³¹But if he perceive the place of the spot is equal with the flesh that is near it, and the hair black: he shall shut him up seven days,

³²And on the seventh day he shall look upon it. If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:

³³The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot, and he shall be shut up other seven days:

³⁴If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him, and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.

³⁵But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin,

³⁶He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently unclean.
