39. And returning on the seventh day, he shall examine it. If he finds that the leprosy has spread,
40. he shall order the stones in which the leprosy is, to be dug out and cast outside the city in an unclean place,
41. and that the house be scraped on the inside all around, and that the dust of the scrapings be scattered outside the city in an unclean place,
42. and that other stones be put back, in place of those which had been taken away, and that the house be plastered with other mortar.
43. But if, after the stones have been dug out, and the dust wiped away, and it is plastered with other clay,
44. the priest, upon entering, will have seen that the leprosy has returned, and that the walls are sprinkled with spots, then it is a persistent leprosy and the house is unclean.
45. And so they shall promptly destroy it, and shall cast its stones and timber, and also all the dust, outside the town in an unclean place.
46. Whoever enters into the house when it is closed up shall be unclean until evening.
47. And whoever will have slept in it, or eaten anything, shall wash his clothes.
