2. 1ENGWEBBEThe LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,BSBBSB: Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
3. 2ENGWEBBE“When a man shall have a swelling in his body’s skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons, the priests.BSBBSB: “When someone has a swelling or rash or bright spot on his skin that may be an infectious skin disease, he must be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons who is a priest.
4. 3ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body. If the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body’s skin, it is the plague of leprosy; so the priest shall examine him and pronounce him unclean.BSBBSB: The priest is to examine the infection on his skin, and if the hair in the infection has turned white and the sore appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a skin disease. After the priest examines him, he must pronounce him unclean.
5. 4ENGWEBBEIf the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, and its hair hasn’t turned white, then the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.BSBBSB: If, however, the spot on his skin is white and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
6. 5ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine him on the seventh day. Behold, if in his eyes the plague is arrested and the plague hasn’t spread in the skin, then the priest shall isolate him for seven more days.BSBBSB: On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine him, and if he sees that the infection is unchanged and has not spread on the skin, the priest must isolate him for another seven days.
7. 6ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine him again on the seventh day. Behold, if the plague has faded and the plague hasn’t spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.BSBBSB: The priest will examine him again on the seventh day, and if the sore has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is a rash. The person must wash his clothes and be clean.
8. 7ENGWEBBEBut if the scab spreads on the skin after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again.BSBBSB: But if the rash spreads further on his skin after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he must present himself again to the priest.
9. 8ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine him; and behold, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.BSBBSB: The priest will reexamine him, and if the rash has spread on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a skin disease.
10. 9ENGWEBBE“When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;BSBBSB: When anyone develops a skin disease, he must be brought to the priest.
11. 10ENGWEBBEand the priest shall examine him. Behold, if there is a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,BSBBSB: The priest will examine him, and if there is a white swelling on the skin that has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,
12. 11ENGWEBBEit is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is already unclean.BSBBSB: it is a chronic skin disease and the priest must pronounce him unclean. He need not isolate him, for he is unclean.
13. 12ENGWEBBE“If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest,BSBBSB: But if the skin disease breaks out all over his skin so that it covers all the skin of the infected person from head to foot, as far as the priest can see,
14. 13ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall examine him. Behold, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean.BSBBSB: the priest shall examine him, and if the disease has covered his entire body, he is to pronounce the infected person clean. Since it has all turned white, he is clean.
15. 14ENGWEBBEBut whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.BSBBSB: But whenever raw flesh appears on someone, he will be unclean.
16. 15ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.BSBBSB: When the priest sees the raw flesh, he must pronounce him unclean. The raw flesh is unclean; it is a skin disease.
17. 16ENGWEBBEOr if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest.BSBBSB: But if the raw flesh changes and turns white, he must go to the priest.
18. 17ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine him. Behold, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.BSBBSB: The priest will reexamine him, and if the infection has turned white, the priest is to pronounce the infected person clean; then he is clean.
19. 18ENGWEBBE“When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,BSBBSB: When a boil appears on someone’s skin and it heals,
20. 19ENGWEBBEand in the place of the boil there is a white swelling, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest.BSBBSB: and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot develops where the boil was, he must present himself to the priest.
21. 20ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine it. Behold, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and its hair has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil.BSBBSB: The priest shall examine it, and if it appears to be beneath the skin and the hair in it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection that has broken out in the boil.
22. 21ENGWEBBEBut if the priest examines it, and behold, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn’t deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.BSBBSB: But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in it, and it is not beneath the skin and has faded, the priest shall isolate him for seven days.
23. 22ENGWEBBEIf it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.BSBBSB: If it spreads any further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is an infection.
24. 23ENGWEBBEBut if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn’t spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.BSBBSB: But if the spot remains unchanged and does not spread, it is only the scar from the boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
25. 24ENGWEBBE“Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white,BSBBSB: When there is a burn on someone’s skin and the raw area of the burn becomes reddish-white or white,
26. 25ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall examine it; and behold, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and its appearance is deeper than the skin, it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.BSBBSB: the priest must examine it. If the hair in the spot has turned white and the spot appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection.
27. 26ENGWEBBEBut if the priest examines it, and behold, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn’t deeper than the skin, but has faded, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.BSBBSB: But if the priest examines it and there is no white hair in the spot, and it is not beneath the skin but has faded, the priest shall isolate him for seven days.
28. 27ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.BSBBSB: On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine him, and if it has spread further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection.
29. 28ENGWEBBEIf the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn’t spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is the scar from the burn.BSBBSB: But if the spot is unchanged and has not spread on the skin but has faded, it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest is to pronounce him clean; for it is only the scar from the burn.
30. 29ENGWEBBE“When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,BSBBSB: If a man or woman has an infection on the head or chin,
31. 30ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is an itch. It is leprosy of the head or of the beard.BSBBSB: the priest shall examine the infection, and if it appears to be deeper than the skin and the hair in it is yellow and thin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a scaly outbreak, an infectious disease of the head or chin.
32. 31ENGWEBBEIf the priest examines the plague of itching, and behold, its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall isolate the person infected with itching seven days.BSBBSB: But if the priest examines the scaly infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
33. 32ENGWEBBEOn the seventh day the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if the itch hasn’t spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn’t deeper than the skin,BSBBSB: On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine the infection, and if the scaly outbreak has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin,
34. 33ENGWEBBEthen he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch. Then the priest shall isolate the one who has the itch seven more days.BSBBSB: then the person must shave himself except for the scaly area. Then the priest shall isolate him for another seven days.
35. 34ENGWEBBEOn the seventh day, the priest shall examine the itch; and behold, if the itch hasn’t spread in the skin, and its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes and be clean.BSBBSB: On the seventh day the priest shall examine the scaly outbreak, and if it has not spread on the skin and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, the priest is to pronounce him clean. He must wash his clothes, and he will be clean.
36. 35ENGWEBBEBut if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,BSBBSB: If, however, the scaly outbreak spreads further on the skin after his cleansing,
37. 36ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall examine him; and behold, if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean.BSBBSB: the priest is to examine him, and if the scaly outbreak has spread on the skin, the priest need not look for yellow hair; the person is unclean.
38. 37ENGWEBBEBut if in his eyes the itch is arrested and black hair has grown in it, then the itch is healed. He is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean.BSBBSB: If, however, in his sight the scaly outbreak is unchanged and black hair has grown in it, then it has healed. He is clean, and the priest is to pronounce him clean.
39. 38ENGWEBBE“When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots,BSBBSB: When a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,
40. 39ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall examine them. Behold, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash. It has broken out in the skin. He is clean.BSBBSB: the priest shall examine them, and if the spots are dull white, it is a harmless rash that has broken out on the skin; the person is clean.

42. 41ENGWEBBEIf his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, his forehead is bald. He is clean.BSBBSB: Or if his hairline recedes and he is bald on his forehead, he is still clean.
43. 42ENGWEBBEBut if a reddish-white plague is in the bald head or the bald forehead, it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head or his bald forehead.BSBBSB: But if there is a reddish-white sore on the bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease breaking out on it.
44. 43ENGWEBBEThen the priest shall examine him. Behold, if the swelling of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the body,BSBBSB: The priest is to examine him, and if the swelling of the infection on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white like a skin disease,
45. 44ENGWEBBEhe is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.BSBBSB: the man is diseased; he is unclean. The priest must pronounce him unclean because of the infection on his head.

Unclean!’BSBBSB: A diseased person must wear torn clothes and let his hair hang loose, and he must cover his mouth and cry out, ‘Unclean, unclean!’
47. 46ENGWEBBEAll the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. His dwelling shall be outside of the camp.BSBBSB: As long as he has the infection, he remains unclean. He must live alone in a place outside the camp.

48. Laws about Mildew

49. 47ENGWEBBE“The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woollen garment, or a linen garment;BSBBSB: If any fabric is contaminated with mildew—any wool or linen garment,
50. 48ENGWEBBEwhether it is in warp or woof; of linen or of wool; whether in leather, or in anything made of leather;BSBBSB: any weave or knit of linen or wool, or any article of leather—
51. 49ENGWEBBEif the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the leather, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of leather; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest.BSBBSB: and if the mark in the fabric, leather, weave, knit, or leather article is green or red, then it is contaminated with mildew and must be shown to the priest.
52. 50ENGWEBBEThe priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.BSBBSB: And the priest is to examine the mildew and isolate the contaminated fabric for seven days.
53. 51ENGWEBBEHe shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean.BSBBSB: On the seventh day the priest shall reexamine it, and if the mildew has spread in the fabric, weave, knit, or leather, then regardless of how it is used, it is a harmful mildew; the article is unclean.
54. 52ENGWEBBEHe shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of leather, in which the plague is, for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burnt in the fire.BSBBSB: He is to burn the fabric, weave, or knit, whether the contaminated item is wool or linen or leather. Since the mildew is harmful, the article must be burned up.
55. 53ENGWEBBE“If the priest examines it, and behold, the plague hasn’t spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin;BSBBSB: But when the priest reexamines it, if the mildew has not spread in the fabric, weave, knit, or leather article,
56. 54ENGWEBBEthen the priest shall command that they wash the thing that the plague is in, and he shall isolate it seven more days.BSBBSB: the priest is to order the contaminated article to be washed and isolated for another seven days.
57. 55ENGWEBBEThen the priest shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and behold, if the plague hasn’t changed its colour, and the plague hasn’t spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside.BSBBSB: After it has been washed, the priest is to reexamine it, and if the mildewed article has not changed in appearance, it is unclean. Even though the mildew has not spread, you must burn it, whether the rot is on the front or back.
58. 56ENGWEBBEIf the priest looks, and behold, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof;BSBBSB: If the priest examines it and the mildew has faded after it has been washed, he must cut the contaminated section out of the fabric, leather, weave, or knit.
59. 57ENGWEBBEand if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn what the plague is in with fire.BSBBSB: But if it reappears in the fabric, weave, or knit, or on any leather article, it is spreading. You must burn the contaminated article.
60. 58ENGWEBBEThe garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean.”BSBBSB: If the mildew disappears from the fabric, weave, or knit, or any leather article after washing, then it is to be washed again, and it will be clean.
61. 59ENGWEBBEThis is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.BSBBSB: This is the law concerning a mildew contamination in wool or linen fabric, weave, or knit, or any leather article, for pronouncing it clean or unclean.”
