Leviticus 14:37-49

³⁷After the owner takes everything outside of his house, the priest will go in and inspect the house. If the mildew has caused greenish or reddish spots/depressions on the walls that seem to be deeper than only on the surface of the walls,

³⁸the priest will go outside the house and lock it up for seven days.

³⁹On the seventh day, he must go into the house and inspect it again. If the mildew on the walls has spread,

⁴⁰the priest will tell someone to tear out and throw in the dump outside the town all the stones in the walls that have mildew on them.

⁴¹Then the owner must scrape all the walls inside the house, and everything that is scraped off must be thrown into a dump outside the town.

⁴²Then the owner must get new/other stones to replace the ones that had mildew on them, and take new clay and plaster to cover the stones in the walls of the house.

⁴³If the mildew appears again in the house after that is done,

⁴⁴the priest must go and examine the house again. If the mildew has spread inside the house, it will be clear that the mildew is the kind that destroys houses, and no one will be allowed to live in it.

⁴⁵It must be completely torn down—the stones, the timber and the plaster—and all those things must be thrown into a dump outside the town.

⁴⁶Anyone who goes into that house while it is locked up will not be allowed to be with other people until sunset of that day.

⁴⁷Anyone who sleeps in that house or eats in that house during that time must wash his clothes.

⁴⁸But when the priest comes to examine the house after it has been plastered, if the mildew has not spread, he shall declare that people may live in it, because the mildew is gone.

⁴⁹But before people are allowed to live in it, the priest must take two small birds and some cedar wood and some red/scarlet yarn and some hyssop.
