Leviticus 14:37-48 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

37. And he shall examine the infection, and if the infection on the house’s wall has yellowish-green or reddish spots and its appearance is deeper than the surface of the wall,

38. then the priest shall go out from the house to the house’s entrance, and he shall confine the house for seven days.

39. And the priest shall return on the seventh day, and he shall examine the infection, and if the infection has spread on the house’s wall,

40. the priest shall issue a command and they shall remove the stones on which is the infection, and they shall throw them outside the city on an unclean place.

41. Then they shall scrape off the plaster from all around the house, and they shall pour out the plaster, which they scraped off, outside the city on an unclean place.

42. And they shall take other stones, and they shall put them in place of those stones, and they shall take other plaster, and they shall replaster the house.

43. “But if the infection should return and it breaks out in the house after they have removed the stones and after scraping off the plaster of the house and after it has been replastered,

44. then the priest shall come, and he shall examine the infection, and if the infection has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew in the house—it is unclean.

45. So he shall break down the house, its stones and its wood and all of the house’s plaster, and he shall bring it all outside the city to an unclean place.

46. And the person who enters into the house during all the days that he confined it shall become unclean until the evening.

47. And the person who sleeps in the house must wash his garments, and the person who eats in the house shall wash his garments.

48. “And if the priest comes again and examines the house and if the infection has not spread in the house after being replastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the infection is healed.
