And if his offering is of the flock, a burned offering of sheep or goats, let him give a male without a mark.

And if his offering is given for a peace-offering; if he gives of the herd, male or female, let him give it without any mark on it, before the Lord.

And if what he gives for a peace-offering to the Lord is of the flock, let him give a male or female, without any mark on it.

If a man has on his skin a growth or a mark or a white place, and it becomes the disease of a leper, let him be taken to Aaron the priest, or to one of the priests, his sons;

And if, when the priest sees the mark on his skin, the hair on the place is turned white and the mark seems to go deeper than the skin, it is the mark of a leper: and the priest, after looking at him, will say that he is unclean.

But if the mark on his skin is white, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is not turned white, then the priest will keep him shut up for seven days;

And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; and if the mark is less bright and is not increased on his skin, then let the priest say that he is clean: it is only a skin-mark, and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

But if the size of the mark on his skin is increased after he has been seen by the priest, let him go to the priest again:

And if, after looking at him, he sees that the mark is increased in his skin, let the priest say that he is unclean; he is a leper.

And on the same place there is a white growth of a bright mark, red and white, then let the priest see it;

But if the bright mark keeps in the same place and gets no greater, it is the mark of the old wound, and the priest will say that he is clean.

And if the bright place keeps the same size and gets no greater on the skin, but is less bright, it is the effect of the burn, and the priest will say that he is clean: it is the mark of the burn.

Then the priest is to see the diseased place: and if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and if there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest will say that he is unclean: he has the mark of the leper's disease on his head or in the hair of his chin.

Then the priest is to see him: and if the mark is increased, the priest, without looking for the yellow hair, will say that he is unclean.

And if a man or a woman has bright marks on the skin of their flesh, that is, bright white marks,

Then the priest is to see them: and if the white marks on their skin are not very bright, it is a skin disease which has come out on the skin; he is clean.

Then if the priest sees that the growth of the disease has become red and white on his head or on his brow where there is no hair, like the mark in the skin of a leper;

And any clothing of wool or of linen in which is the mark of the disease;

If there are red or green marks on the clothing, or on the leather, or in the threads of the cloth, or in anything made of skin, it is the leper's disease: let the priest see it.

Then the priest shall look at the mark and shall quarantine the article with the mark for seven days.

And he is to see the mark on the seventh day; if the mark is increased in the clothing, or in the threads of the material, or in the leather, whatever the leather is used for, it is the disease biting into it: it is unclean.

So he shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or any article of leather in which the mark occurs, for it is a leprous malignancy; it shall be burned in the fire.

And if the priest sees that the mark is not increased in the clothing or in any part of the material or in the leather,

Then the priest will give orders for the thing on which the mark is, to be washed, and to be shut up for seven days more:

And if, after the mark has been washed, the priest sees that the colour of it is not changed and it is not increased, it is to be burned in the fire: the disease is working in it, though the damage may be inside or outside.

And if the priest sees that the mark is less bright after the washing, then let him have it cut out of the clothing or the leather or from the threads of the material:

And if the mark is still seen in the clothing or in the threads of the material or in the leather, it is the disease coming out: the thing in which the disease is will have to be burned with fire.

And the material of the clothing, or anything of skin, which has been washed, if the mark has gone out of it, let it be washed a second time and it will be clean.

This is the law for the mark of leprosy in a garment of wool or linen, whether in the warp or in the woof, or in any article of leather, for pronouncing it clean or unclean.

And the priest is to go outside the tent-circle; and if, after looking, the priest sees that the mark of the disease has gone from him,

When ye enter into the land of Canaan which I am about to give you for a possession, - and I put a plague-mark of leprosy in a house, of the land of your possession,

then shall he that owneth the house come in, and tell the priest, saying, - A kind of plague-mark, appeareth to me in the house;

and the priest shall give command, and they shall empty the house, ere yet the priest cometh in to view the mark, so that he do not pronounce unclean all that is in the house, - and, after this, shall the priest come in to view the house:

then shall he view the mark and lo! if the mark is in the walls of the house, with sunken places greenish yellow or reddish, - and they appear to be lower than the surface of the wall,

And the priest is to come again on the seventh day and have a look and see if the marks on the walls of the house are increased in size;

then shall the priest give command, and they shall pull out the stones, wherein is the mark, - and cast them forth outside the city, into an unclean place;

But if the mark again breaketh out in the house, after the taking out of the stones, - and after the scraping of the house and after the plastering,;

then shall the priest come in, and take a view, and lo! if the mark hath spread in the house, a fretting leprosy, it is in the house unclean, it is,

But, though the priest do come, into the house, and take a view, yet lo! if the plague-mark hath not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then shall the priest pronounce the house clean, for, healed, is the plague.

This, is the law, - for every plague-mark of leprosy and for scall;

And for a growth or a bad place or a bright mark on the skin;
