Leviticus 13 : 1 (HCSB)
The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:
Leviticus 13 : 2 (HCSB)
"When a person has a swelling, scab, or spot on the skin of his body, and it becomes a disease on the skin of his body, he is to be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons, the priests.
Leviticus 13 : 3 (HCSB)
The priest will examine the infection on the skin of his body. If the hair in the infection has turned white and the infection appears to be deeper than the skin of his body, it is a skin disease. After the priest examines him, he must pronounce him unclean.
Leviticus 13 : 4 (HCSB)
But if the spot on the skin of his body is white and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest must quarantine the infected person for seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 5 (HCSB)
The priest will then reexamine him on the seventh day. If the infection remains unchanged in his sight and has not spread on the skin, the priest must quarantine him for another seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 6 (HCSB)
The priest will examine him again on the seventh day. If the infection has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest is to pronounce him clean; it is a scab. The person is to wash his clothes and will become clean.
Leviticus 13 : 7 (HCSB)
But if the scab spreads further on his skin after he has presented himself to the priest for his cleansing, he must present himself again to the priest.
Leviticus 13 : 8 (HCSB)
The priest will examine him, and if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest must pronounce him unclean; he has a skin disease.
Leviticus 13 : 9 (HCSB)
"When a skin disease develops on a person, he is to be brought to the priest.
Leviticus 13 : 10 (HCSB)
The priest will examine him. If there is a white swelling on the skin that has turned the hair white, and there is a patch of raw flesh in the swelling,
Leviticus 13 : 11 (HCSB)
it is a chronic disease on the skin of his body, and the priest must pronounce him unclean. He need not quarantine him, for he is unclean.
Leviticus 13 : 12 (HCSB)
But if the skin disease breaks out completely over the skin so that it covers all the skin of the infected person from his head to his feet so far as the priest can see,
Leviticus 13 : 13 (HCSB)
the priest will look, and if the skin disease has covered his entire body, he is to pronounce the infected person clean. Since he has turned totally white, he is clean.
Leviticus 13 : 14 (HCSB)
But whenever raw flesh appears on him, he will be unclean.
Leviticus 13 : 15 (HCSB)
When the priest examines the raw flesh, he must pronounce him unclean. Raw flesh is unclean; it is a skin disease.
Leviticus 13 : 16 (HCSB)
But if the raw flesh changes and turns white, he must go to the priest.
Leviticus 13 : 17 (HCSB)
The priest will examine him, and if the infection has turned white, the priest must pronounce the infected person clean; he is clean.
Leviticus 13 : 18 (HCSB)
"When a boil appears on the skin of one's body and it heals,
Leviticus 13 : 19 (HCSB)
and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot develops where the boil was, the person must present himself to the priest.
Leviticus 13 : 20 (HCSB)
The priest will make an examination, and if the spot seems to be beneath the skin and the hair in it has turned white, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a skin disease that has broken out in the boil.
Leviticus 13 : 21 (HCSB)
But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in it, and it is not beneath the skin but is faded, the priest must quarantine him seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 22 (HCSB)
If it spreads further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is an infection.
Leviticus 13 : 23 (HCSB)
But if the spot remains where it is and does not spread, it is [only] the scar from the boil. The priest is to pronounce him clean.
Leviticus 13 : 24 (HCSB)
"When there is a burn on the skin of one's body produced by fire, and the patch made raw by the burn becomes a reddish-white or white spot,
Leviticus 13 : 25 (HCSB)
the priest is to examine it. If the hair in the spot has turned white and the spot appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a skin disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a skin disease.
Leviticus 13 : 26 (HCSB)
But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in the spot and it is not beneath the skin but is faded, the priest must quarantine him seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 27 (HCSB)
The priest will reexamine him on the seventh day. If it has spread further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a skin disease.
Leviticus 13 : 28 (HCSB)
But if the spot has remained where it was and has not spread on the skin but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn. The priest is to pronounce him clean, for it is [only] the scar from the burn.
Leviticus 13 : 29 (HCSB)
"When a man or woman has an infection on the head or chin,
Leviticus 13 : 30 (HCSB)
the priest must examine the infection. If it appears to be deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and sparse, the priest must pronounce the person unclean. It is a scaly outbreak, a skin disease of the head or chin.
Leviticus 13 : 31 (HCSB)
When the priest examines the scaly infection, if it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, the priest must quarantine the person with the scaly infection for seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 32 (HCSB)
The priest will reexamine the infection on the seventh day. If the scaly outbreak has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin,
Leviticus 13 : 33 (HCSB)
the person must shave himself but not shave the scaly area. Then the priest must quarantine the person who has the scaly outbreak for another seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 34 (HCSB)
The priest will examine the scaly outbreak on the seventh day, and if it has not spread on the skin and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, the priest is to pronounce the person clean. He is to wash his clothes, and he will be clean.
Leviticus 13 : 35 (HCSB)
But if the scaly outbreak spreads further on the skin after his cleansing,
Leviticus 13 : 36 (HCSB)
the priest is to examine the person. If the scaly outbreak has spread on the skin, the priest does not need to look for yellow hair; the person is unclean.
Leviticus 13 : 37 (HCSB)
But if as far as he can see, the scaly outbreak remains unchanged and black hair has grown in it, then it has healed; he is clean. The priest is to pronounce the person clean.
Leviticus 13 : 38 (HCSB)
"When a man or a woman has white spots on the skin of the body,
Leviticus 13 : 39 (HCSB)
the priest is to make an examination. If the spots on the skin of the body are dull white, it is [only] a rash that has broken out on the skin; the person is clean.
Leviticus 13 : 40 (HCSB)
"If a man loses the hair of his head, he is bald, but he is clean.
Leviticus 13 : 41 (HCSB)
Or if he loses the hair at his hairline, he is bald on his forehead, but he is clean.
Leviticus 13 : 42 (HCSB)
But if there is a reddish-white infection on the bald head or forehead, it is a skin disease breaking out on his head or forehead.
Leviticus 13 : 43 (HCSB)
The priest is to examine him, and if the swelling of the infection on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white, like the appearance of a skin disease on his body,
Leviticus 13 : 44 (HCSB)
the man is afflicted with a skin disease; he is unclean. The priest must pronounce him unclean; the infection is on his head.
Leviticus 13 : 45 (HCSB)
"The person afflicted with an infectious skin disease is to have his clothes torn and his hair hanging loose, and he must cover his mouth and cry out, 'Unclean, unclean!'
Leviticus 13 : 46 (HCSB)
He will remain unclean as long as he has the infection; he is unclean. He must live alone in a place outside the camp.
Leviticus 13 : 47 (HCSB)
"If a fabric is contaminated with mildew-- in wool or linen fabric,
Leviticus 13 : 48 (HCSB)
in the warp or woof of linen or wool, or in leather or anything made of leather--
Leviticus 13 : 49 (HCSB)
and if the contamination is green or red in the fabric, the leather, the warp, the woof, or any leather article, it is a mildew contamination and is to be shown to the priest.
Leviticus 13 : 50 (HCSB)
The priest is to examine the contamination and quarantine the contaminated fabric for seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 51 (HCSB)
The priest is to reexamine the contamination on the seventh day. If it has spread in the fabric, the warp, the woof, or the leather, regardless of how it is used, the contamination is harmful mildew; it is unclean.
Leviticus 13 : 52 (HCSB)
He is to burn the fabric, the warp or woof in wool or linen, or any leather article, which is contaminated. Since it is harmful mildew it must be burned up.
Leviticus 13 : 53 (HCSB)
"When the priest examines [it], if the contamination has not spread in the fabric, the warp or woof, or any leather article,
Leviticus 13 : 54 (HCSB)
the priest is to order whatever is contaminated to be washed and quarantined for another seven days.
Leviticus 13 : 55 (HCSB)
After it has been washed, the priest is to reexamine the contamination. If the appearance of the contaminated article has not changed, it is unclean. Even though the contamination has not spread, you must burn up the fabric. It is a fungus on the front or back [of the fabric].
Leviticus 13 : 56 (HCSB)
"If the priest examines [it], and the contamination has faded after it has been washed, he must cut the contaminated section out of the fabric, the leather, or the warp or woof.
Leviticus 13 : 57 (HCSB)
But if it reappears in the fabric, the warp or woof, or any leather article, it has broken out again. You must burn up whatever is contaminated.
Leviticus 13 : 58 (HCSB)
But if the contamination disappears from the fabric, the warp or woof, or any leather article, which have been washed, it is to be washed again, and it will be clean.
Leviticus 13 : 59 (HCSB)
"This is the law concerning a mildew contamination in wool or linen fabric, warp or woof, or any leather article, in order to pronounce it clean or unclean."
