New Testament

Leviticus 13:45-51 Common English Bible (CEB)

45. Anyone with an infection of skin disease must wear torn clothes, dishevel their hair, cover their upper lip, and shout out, "Unclean! Unclean!"

46. They will be unclean as long as they are infected. They are unclean. They must live alone outside the camp.

47. Whenever there is an infection of skin disease on clothing—on wool or linen clothing,

48. in the weaving of the linen or wool, or on a skin or skin item—

49. and the infection is greenish or reddish on the clothing, the weaving, or the skin or skin item, it is an infection of skin disease. It must be shown to the priest.

50. The priest will examine the infection and quarantine the infected item seven days.

51. On the seventh day he will examine the infection again. If the infection has spread in the clothing, the weaving, or the skin, whatever it is used for, the infection is a case of infectious skin disease; the item is unclean.
