Leviticus 13 — TOE
13Verse 1And the Lord spake with Mosheh and with Aharon, saying:Verse 2A man, in the skin of whose flesh there may be an abscess, or pustule, or brightness, and it be in the skin of his flesh like a stroke of the leprosy, shall be brought unto Aharon the priest, or to one of his sons the priests.Verse 3And the priest shall see the plague in the skin of the flesh, and if the hair in the affected spot be turned white, and the appearance of the plague be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall inspect him and make (pronounce) him to be unclean.Verse 4But if a bright spot be in the skin of his flesh, and the appearance be not deeper than the skin, and the hair be not turned white, the priest shall shut up the stricken (man) seven days.Verse 5And on the seventh day the priest shall inspect him, and if the plague stands as it did, if the plague hath not increases in the skin, let the priest shut him up a second seven days.Verse 6And the priest shall look upon him on the second seventh day; and, behold, if the plague hath become obscure, and the plague hath not spread in the skin, the priest shall make him to be clean; it is a sore, and he shall wash his clothes and be clean.Verse 7But if the diseased spot increase again in the skin after having been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be brought a second time to the priest.Verse 8And the priest inspecting, and, behold, the soreness hath increased in the skin, the priest shall make him to be unclean; it is the leprosy.Verse 9When the plague of leprosy is in a man, let him be brought to the priest.Verse 10And the priest shall inspect him, and, behold, if the abscess is white in the skin, and it hath turned the hair white, and the sign of quick flesh be in the abscess,Verse 11It is an old leprosy in the skin of the flesh, and the priest shall make him unclean, but shall not shut him up (to ascertain his uncleanness), for he is unclean.Verse 12And if the leprosy increasing shall increase in the skin, and the leprosy cover the whole skin of the plague (struck man) from his head unto his feet, wherever the eyes of the priest may look,Verse 13the priest shall observe, and, behold, (if) the leprosy covereth all his flesh, the plagued shall be (considered) clean; the whole of him is turned white, he is clean.Verse 14But in the day that quick flesh appeareth in him he shall be unclean;Verse 15And the priest shall observe the quick flesh, and make him to be unclean. The quick flesh is unclean, it is the leprosy.Verse 16But if the quick flesh turn to be white, he shall come to the priest;Verse 17And the priest shall observe, and, behold, if the plague is turned white, the priest shall make the plagued to be clean; he is clean.Verse 18And if a man have in him, in his skin, an ulcer, and it hath healed,Verse 19but in the place of the ulcer there come a white abscess, or a bright spot, reddish-white, let him show it to the priest,Verse 20And the priest shall inspect, and, behold, if the appearance of it be deeper than the skin, and the hair be turned white, the priest shall make him to be unclean; it is the plague of leprosy increasing in the ulcer.Verse 21But if the priest look on it, and, behold, the hair is not white, nor (the depth) lower than the skin, and it hath become obscure, the priest shall seclude him seven days;Verse 22And if increasing it increaseth in the skin, the priest shall make him to be unclean; it is the plague.Verse 23But if the spot abideth in its place, and increaseth not, it is a description of an ulcer, and the priest shall make him clean.Verse 24Or, if a man hath in his skin a burning wound, and there be the sign of a glowing wound whitish-red or (altogether) white,Verse 25the priest shall look upon it, and, behold, if the hair be white in the bright spot, and the appearance be deeper than the skin, it is leprosy increasing in the wound, and the priest shall make him unclean; it is the plague of leprosy.Verse 26But if the priest see it, and, behold, the hair is not white in the spot, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is becoming obscure, the priest shall seclude him seven days.Verse 27And the priest shall look upon him on the seventh day; if, increasing, it increaseth in the skin, the priest shall make him to be unclean; it is the plague of leprosy.Verse 28But if the spot abideth in its place, and doth not increase in the skin, but hath become obscure, it is (only) a burning sore, and the priest shall make him to be clean, for it is the sign of an inflammation.Verse 29And if a man or a woman have a plague on the head, or in the beard,Verse 30the priest shall inspect the plague, and, behold, if the appearance is deeper than the skin, and there is in it a thin reddish hair, the priest shall make him unclean; it is a scar (or scurvy), it is leprosy in the head or the beard.Verse 31And if the priest observe the plague of the scurvy, and, behold, its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is not black, the priest shall seclude him who hath the plague of the scurvy seven days.Verse 32And the priest shall inspect the plague on the seventh day; and, behold, if the scurf hath not increased, and there is no reddish hair in it, and the appearance of the scurf be not deeper than the skin,Verse 33He must shave around the scurfed spot; but the spot itself he must not shave; and the priest shall shut him up (who hath) the scurf a second seven days.Verse 34And the priest shall look upon the scurf on the seventh day, and, behold, if the scurf is not increased in the skin, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, the priest shall make him clean; and he shall wash his clothes and be clean.Verse 35But if the scurf increase in the skin after that he hath been (pronounced) clean,Verse 36The priest shall inspect him, and, behold, if the scurf be increased in the skin, the priest need not seek for the reddish hair; he is unclean.Verse 37But if the scurf abide as it was, and black hair have sprung up in it, the scurf hath healed, he is clean, and the priest shall make him to be clean.Verse 38And if a man or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright white spots,Verse 39Then the priest shall look, and, behold, if the spots in the skin of their flesh be dim white, it is a freckle growing in the skin; he is clean.Verse 40And if a man’s hair fall off from his head, he is bald, but he is clean.Verse 41And if the hair of his head fall off toward his face, he is partly bald, but is clean.Verse 42But if in the baldness or partial baldness there be a whitish-red scar, it is leprosy growing in the baldness or partial baldness.Verse 43Then the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague spot be whitish-red in the baldness or the partial baldness, as the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh,Verse 44The man is a leper, he is unclean; and the priest shall verily make him to be unclean; his plague is in his head.Verse 45And the leper in whom is the plague, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bared; and, like the mourner, he shall be covered unto his lip, and shall cry: Be not made unclean! Be not made unclean!Verse 46All the days that the plague is upon him shall he be unclean; he is unclean; he shall dwell apart, his habitation shall be without the camp.Verse 47The garment which hath the plague of leprosy in it, whether it be in a garment of woollen or of linen,Verse 48Whether in the warp or in the woof of linen or of woolen, or in leather, or anything made of skin:Verse 49If the plague be green or red in the garment or in the skin, whether in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a plague of leprosy, and must be showed to the priest.Verse 50And the priest shall look at the plague, and shut it up seven days.Verse 51And he shall look at the plague on the seventh day; if the plague hath increased in the garment, whether in the warp or in the woof, or in a skin, or anything made of skin for work, it is a plague of consuming leprosy, it is unclean.Verse 52And he shall burn the garment, whether it be in warp or woof, of wool, or of linen, or anything (made) of skin, which hath the plague in it; for it is a consuming leprosy; he shall burn it in fire.Verse 53But if the priest look, and, behold, the plague hath not increased in the garment, whether in warp or woof, or in anything of skin;Verse 54Then the priest shall direct, and they shall wash that wherein is the plague, and he shall shut it up a second seven days.Verse 55And the priest shall look after that they have washed the plague, and, behold, if (the state of) the plague hath not increased, it is (nevertheless) unclean; thou shalt burn it with fire, it is a fretting leprosy, whether in its smoothness or its roughness (i.e., its right or wrong side).Verse 56And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague hath become obscure after they have washed it, he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or of the woof.Verse 57And if it reappear in the garment, in warp or woof, or increase in any vessel of skin, thou shalt burn in fire that which hath the plague in it.Verse 58And the garment, or warp, or woof, or anything of skin which hath been washed, and the plague hath gone form it, shall be dipped the second time, and shall be clean.Verse 59This is the law for the plague of leprosy in a garment of woolen or linen, in the warp or the woof, or anything of skin, to make it to be clean or unclean.
