New Testament

Leviticus 13:19-28 Modern English Version (MEV)

19. and in the place of the boil there is a white swelling or a reddish-white spot, then it will be shown to the priest.

20. And if the priest sees it, and it is deeper than the skin, and the hair has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a leprous sore that has broken out in the boil.

21. But if the priest looks at it, and there are no white hairs in it, and if it is not deeper than the skin but has faded, then the priest shall isolate the person for seven days.

22. If it spreads around the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a leprous sore.

23. But if the spot stays in its place and does not spread, then it is the scar of a boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.

24. Or if there is some of the skin on the body where there is a burn, and the raw flesh that has a burn becomes a reddish or white spot,

25. then the priest shall examine it, and if the hair in the spot has turned white, and it is deeper than the skin, then it is a leprous disease broken out from the burn. Therefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a leprous sore.

26. But if the priest looks at it, and there is no white hair in the spot, and it is no deeper than the other skin and is faded, then the priest shall isolate him for seven days.

27. And the priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and if it has spread around the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a leprous sore.

28. If the spot stays in its place and it does not spread in the skin, but is faded, then it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is a scar from the burn.
