Leviticus 13:25-37

²⁵the preest schal biholde it, and lo! if it is turned in to whijtnesse, and the place therof is lowere than the tothir skyn, the preest schal defoule the man, for a wounde of lepre is bred in the `signe of wounde.

²⁶That if the colour of heeris is not chaungid, nether the wounde is lowere than the tother fleisch, and thilke spice of lepre is sumdeel derk, the preest schal close the man bi seuene daies;

²⁷and in the seuenthe dai he schal biholde; if the lepre wexith in the fleisch, the preest schal defoule the man;

²⁸ellis if the whijtnesse stondith in his place, and is not cleer ynow, it is a wounde of brennyng, and therfor the man schal be clensid, for it is a signe of brennyng.

²⁹A man ethir womman, in whos heed ether beerd lepre buriounneth, the preest schal se hem;

³⁰and if the place is lowere than the tothir fleisch, and the heer is whijt, `and is sotilere, `ether smallere, than it is wont, the preest schal defoule hem, for it is lepre of the heed, and of the beerd.

³¹Ellis if he seeth the place of wem euene with the nyy fleisch, and seeth the here blak, the preest schal close hem bi seuene daies, and schal se in the seuenthe dai;

³²if the wem waxith not, and the heer is of his colour, and the place of wounde is euene with the tother fleisch,

³³the man schal be schauun, without the place of wem, and he schal be closid eft bi seuene othere daies.

³⁴If in the seuenthe day the wounde is seyn to haue stonde in his place, nether is lowere than the tother fleisch, the preest schal clense the man; and whanne his clothis ben waischun, he schal be cleene.

³⁵Ellis if aftir the clensyng a spotte wexith eft in the skyn,

³⁶the preest schal no more enquere, whether the heer is chaungid in to whijt colour, for apeertli he is vncleene.

³⁷Sotheli if the spotte stondith, and the heeris ben blake, knowe the preest that the man is heelid, and tristili `pronounce he the man cleene.
