35. then shall the one who owns the house come and inform the priest, saying, ‘It seems to me that there is some plague in the house.’
36. “And the priest shall command, and they shall empty the house, before the priest goes in to look at the plague, so that all that is in the house is not made unclean. And after that the priest goes in to look at the house.
37. “And he shall look at the plague and see, if the plague is on the walls of the house with sunken places, greenish or reddish, which appear to be deep in the wall,
38. then the priest shall go out of the house, to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
39. “And the priest shall come again on the seventh day and look and see, if the plague has spread on the walls of the house,
40. then the priest shall command, and they shall remove the stones with the plague in them, and they shall throw them outside the city, into an unclean place,
41. while he lets the house be scraped inside, all around, and the dust that they scrape off they shall pour out in an unclean place outside the city.
42. “And they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and take other mortar and plaster the house.
43. “And if the plague comes back and breaks out in the house, after he has removed the stones, after he has scraped the house, and after it is plastered,
44. then the priest shall come and look and see, if the plague has spread in the house, it is an active leprosy in the house, it is unclean.
