But if the scab spreads much abroad in the skin, after that he has been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again: read more.
And if the priest sees that, behold, the scab spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy. When the disease of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest; And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the swelling is white in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is a spot of raw flesh in the swelling; 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. And if a leprosy breaks out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of him that has the disease from his head even to his foot, wherever the priest looks; Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean that has the disease: it is all turned white: he is clean. But when raw flesh appears on him, he shall be unclean. And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy. Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, he shall come unto the priest; And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the disease is turned to white; then the priest shall pronounce him clean that has the disease: he is clean. The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil, and is healed, And in the place of the boil there be a white swelling, or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be shown to the priest; And if, when the priest sees it, behold, it is in sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof is turned white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a disease of leprosy broken out of the boil. But if the priest looks on it, and, behold, there is no white hairs therein, and if it is not lower than the skin, but is somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days: And if it spreads much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a disease. But if the bright spot stays in its place, and spreads not, it is a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean. Or if there be any flesh, in the skin of which there is a burned spot, and the raw flesh that is burned has a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white; Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the hair in the bright spot is turned white, and it is in sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out in the burn: therefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the disease of leprosy. But if the priest looks on it, and, behold, there be no white hair in the bright spot, and it is no lower than the other skin, but is somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days: And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day: and if it is spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the disease of leprosy.

If a man or woman has a disease upon the head or the beard; Then the priest shall see the disease: and, behold, if it is in sight deeper than the skin; and there is in it yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a scaly eruption, even a leprosy upon the head or beard. And if the priest looks on the disease of the scaly eruption, and, behold, it is not in sight deeper than the skin, and that there is no black hair in it; then the priest shall shut him up that has the disease of the scaly eruption seven days: And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the disease: and, behold, if the scaly eruption spreads not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scaly eruption is not in sight deeper than the skin; He shall be shaven, but the scaly eruption shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut him up that has the scaly eruption seven days more: And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scaly eruption: and, behold, if the scaly eruption is 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. But if the scaly eruption spreads much in the skin after his cleansing; Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scaly eruption is spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he is unclean. But if the scaly eruption is in his sight unchanged, and that there is black hair grown up therein; the scaly eruption is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean. If a man also or a woman has in the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots; 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 grows in the skin; he is clean. And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is he clean. And he that has his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he clean. And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead. Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the swelling of the sore be white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appears in the skin of the flesh; He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his disease is in his head.
