New Testament

Leviticus 13:6-22 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. And the priest shall examine him again on the seventh day, and if the mark has faded and not spread into the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is only a scab, and he shall wash his clothes and be clean.

7. But if the scab spreads in the skin after he has been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen by the priest again.

8. And if the priest sees that the scab has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.

9. When a person has leprosy, then it shall be reported to the priest.

10. And the priest shall examine him, and if there is a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,

11. it is a recurring leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, but he shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.

12. If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the disease covers all the skin of the person who has the disease from his head to his feet, wherever the priest looks,

13. then the priest shall examine, and if the leprosy has covered all his body, he shall pronounce him clean from the disease. It has all turned white, and he is clean.

14. But when raw flesh appears on him, he shall be unclean.

15. The priest shall see the raw flesh and pronounce him to be unclean, for the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.

16. Or if the raw flesh turns again, and it is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest.

17. And the priest shall see him, and if the disease is changed to white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean who has the disease. He is clean.

18. And when the skin has a boil, and it is healed,

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.
