AND the LORD
spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a
scab, or bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh like the plague of
leprosy; then he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his
sons the priests:
3 And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the
flesh: and when the hair in the
plague is turned white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of
his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy:
and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.
4 If the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh, and in
sight be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white;
then the priest shall shut up him that hath the plague seven days:
5 And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold,
if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plague spread not in the
skin; then the priest shall shut him up seven days more:
6 And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague spread not in
the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean: it is but a scab: and
he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
7 But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he
hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the
priest again:
8 And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the
skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy.
9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be
brought unto the priest;
10 And the priest shall see him:
and, behold, if the rising be white in the skin, and it have turned
the hair white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising;
11 It is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest
shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up: for he is unclean.
12 And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy
cover all the skin of him that hath the plague from his head even to his
foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;
13 Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he
shall pronounce him clean that hath the plague: it is all turned white:
he is clean.
14 But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be
unclean: for the raw flesh is
unclean: it is a leprosy.
16 Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto white, he
shall come unto the priest:
17 And the priest shall see him:
and, behold, if the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall
pronounce him clean that hath the plague: he is clean
18 The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil,
and is healed,
19 And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a
bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be showed to the priest;
20 And if, when the priest seeth it, behold, it be in sight lower
than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is a plague
of leprosy broken out of the boil.
21 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white
hairs therein, and if it be not lower than the skin, but be somewhat dark;
then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
22 And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
23 But if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not, it is
a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
24 Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there is a hot
burning, and the quick flesh that burneth have a white bright spot, somewhat
reddish, or white;
25 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the hair in the bright spot be turned white,
and it be sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out of the
burning: wherefore the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is the
plague of leprosy.
26 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white
hair in the bright spot, and it be no lower than the other skin, but be somewhat
dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
27 And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day: and if it be spread much abroad in the skin,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it is the plague of leprosy.
28 And if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not in the
skin, but it be somewhat dark; it is a rising of the burning, and the priest
shall pronounce him clean: for it is
an inflammation of the burning.
29 If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard;
30 Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold, if it be in sight deeper than the skin, and there
be in it a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is a dry scall, even a
leprosy upon the head or beard.
31 And if the priest look on the plague of the scall, and, behold,
it be not in sight deeper than the skin, and that there is no black hair in
it; then the priest shall shut up him that hath the plague of the scall seven
days:
32 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the
plague: and, behold, if the scall
spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall be not in sight
deeper than the skin;
33 He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the
priest shall shut up him that hath the scall seven days more:
34 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and, behold, if the scall be not spread in
the skin, nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall
pronounce him clean: and he shall
wash his clothes, and be clean.
35 But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleaning;
36 Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the priest
shall not seek for yellow hair; he is unclean.
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and that there is
black hair grown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright
spots, even white bright spots;
39 Then the priest shall look:
and, behold, if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be darkish
white, it is a freckled spot that groweth in the skin: he is clean.
40 And the man whose hair if fallen off his head, he is bald; yet
he is clean.
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head
toward his face, he is forehead bald; yet is he clean.
42 And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white
reddish sore; it is a leprosy spring up in his bald head, or his bald
forehead.
43 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the rising of the sore be white reddish in his
bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of
the flesh;
44 He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is
in his head.
45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be rent,
and his head bare, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall
cry, Unclean, unclean.
46 All the days wherein the plague shall be in him shall be
defiled; he is unclean: he shall
dwell alone; without the camp shall his habitation be.
47 The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it
be a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
48 Whether it be in the warp, or woof, of linen, or of woolen;
whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
49 And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment, or in
the skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is
a plague of leprosy, and shall be showed unto the priest:
50 And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut up it that
hath the plague seven days:
51 And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day: if the plague be spread in the garment,
either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, or in any work that is
made of skin; the plague is a fretting leprosy; it is unclean
52 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in
woolen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a fretting leprosy; it shall be
burnt in the fire.
53 And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague be not
spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of
skin;
54 Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing wherein
the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more:
55 And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not
changed his color, and the plague be not spread, it is unclean; thou shalt
burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bare within or without.
56 And if he priest look, and, behold, the plague be somewhat dark
after the washing of it; then he shall rend it out of the garment, or out of
the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
57 And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or
in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreading plague: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague is
with fire.
58 And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of
skin it be, which thou shalt wash, if the plague be departed from them, then
it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean.
59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woolen
or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it
clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
