Leviticus 13:12-20 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. And if the infectious skin disease breaks out all over on the skin and the infectious skin disease covers all of the afflicted person’s skin from his head to his feed, so far as the priest can see,

13. then the priest shall examine it, and if the infectious skin disease covers his whole body, then he shall pronounce the afflicted person clean—all of it has turned white; he is clean.

14. But whenever raw flesh appears on him, he shall become unclean.

15. And the priest shall examine the raw flesh, and he shall pronounce him unclean—the raw flesh is unclean; it is an infectious skin disease.

16. Or, when the raw flesh returns and it has changed to white, then he shall come to the priest,

17. and the priest shall examine him, and if the infection has changed to white, then the priest shall pronounce the afflicted person clean—he is clean.

18. “And when someone’s body has a skin sore on his skin and it is healed

19. and a white swelling or a pinkish spot appears in the skin sore’s place, then he shall show himself to the priest.

20. And the priest shall examine it, and if its appearance is deeper than the skin and its hair has changed to white, then the priest shall declare him unclean—it is an infectious skin disease; it has broken out in the skin sore.
