> 12:1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 12:2 Speak unto the children
of Israel, saying: If a woman be delivered, and bear a man-child,
then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity
of her sickness shall she be unclean. 12:3 And in the eighth day the
flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. 12:4 And she shall
continue in the blood of purification three and thirty days; she
shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the
days of her purification be fulfilled. 12:5 But if she bear a
maid-child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her impurity;
and she shall continue in the blood of purification threescore and
six days. 12:6 And when the days of her purification are fulfilled,
for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first
year for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove, for
a sin-offering, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the
priest. 12:7 And he shall offer it before the LORD, and make
atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her
blood. This is the law for her that beareth, whether a male or a
female. 12:8 And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall
take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons: the one for a
burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest
shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
> 13:1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying: 13:2 When a man
shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, or a scab, or a bright
spot, and it become in the skin of his flesh the plague of leprosy,
then he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his
sons the priests. 13:3 And the priest shall look upon the plague in
the skin of the flesh; and if the hair in the plague be turned white,
and the appearance of the plague be deeper than the skin of his
flesh, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall look on him,
and pronounce him unclean. 13:4 And if the bright spot be white in
the skin of his flesh, and the appearance thereof be not deeper than
the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white, then the priest
shall shut up him that hath the plague seven days. 13:5 And the
priest shall look on him the seventh day; and, behold, if the plague
stay in its appearance, and the plague be not spread in the skin,
then the priest shall shut him up seven days more. 13:6 And the
priest shall look on him again the seventh day; and, behold, if the
plague be dim, and the plague be not spread in the skin, then the
priest shall pronounce him clean: it is a scab; and he shall wash his
clothes, and be clean. 13:7 But if the scab spread abroad in the
skin, after that he hath shown himself to the priest for his
cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again. 13:8 And the
priest shall look, and, behold, if the scab be spread in the skin,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is leprosy.
>
13:9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought
unto the priest. 13:10 And the priest shall look, and, behold, if
there be a white rising in the skin, and it have turned the hair
white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising, 13:11 it is an old
leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him
unclean; he shall not shut him up; for he is unclean. 13:12 And if
the leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all
the skin of him that hath the plague from his head even to his feet,
as far as appeareth to the priest; 13:13 then the priest shall look;
and, behold, if the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall
pronounce him clean that hath the plague; it is all turned white: he
is clean. 13:14 But whensoever raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall
be unclean. 13:15 And the priest shall look on the raw flesh, and
pronounce him unclean; the raw flesh is unclean: it is leprosy. 13:16
But if the raw flesh again be turned into white, then he shall come
unto the priest; 13:17 and the priest shall look on him; and, behold,
if the plague be turned into white, then the priest shall pronounce
him clean that hath the plague: he is clean.
> 13:18 And when
the flesh hath in the skin thereof a boil, and it is healed, 13:19
and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright
spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest. 13:20 And
the priest shall look; and, behold, if the appearance thereof be
lower than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned white, then the
priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy, it
hath broken out in the boil. 13:21 But if the priest look on it, and,
behold, there be no white hairs therein, and it be not lower than the
skin, but be dim, then the priest shall shut him up seven days. 13:22
And if it spread abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce
him unclean: it is a plague. 13:23 But if the bright spot stay in its
place, and be not spread, it is the scar of the boil; and the priest
shall pronounce him clean.
> 13:24 Or when the flesh hath in
the skin thereof a burning by fire, and the quick flesh of the
burning become a bright spot, reddish-white, or white; 13:25 then the
priest shall look upon it; and, behold, if the hair in the bright
spot be turned white, and the appearance thereof be deeper than the
skin, it is leprosy, it hath broken out in the burning; and the
priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
13:26 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white
hair in the bright spot, and it be no lower than the skin, but be
dim; then the priest shall shut him up seven days. 13:27 And the
priest shall look upon him the seventh day; if it spread abroad in
the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the
plague of leprosy. 13:28 And if the bright spot stay in its place,
and be not spread in the skin, but be dim, it is the rising of the
burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar
of the burning.
> 13:29 And when a man or woman hath a plague
upon the head or upon the beard, 13:30 then the priest shall look on
the plague; and, behold, if the appearance thereof be deeper than the
skin, and there be in it yellow thin hair, then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is a scall, it is leprosy of the head or of
the beard. 13:31 And if the priest look on the plague of the scall,
and, behold, the appearance thereof be not deeper than the skin, and
there be no black hair in it, then the priest shall shut up him that
hath the plague of the scall seven days. 13:32 And in the seventh day
the priest shall look on the plague; and, behold, if the scall be not
spread, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the appearance of the
scall be not deeper than the skin, 13:33 then he shall be shaven, but
the scall shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut up him that
hath the scall seven days more. 13:34 And in the seventh day the
priest shall look on the scall; and, behold, if the scall be not
spread in the skin, and the appearance thereof be not deeper than the
skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; and he shall wash
his clothes, and be clean. 13:35 But if the scall spread abroad in
the skin after his cleansing, 13:36 then the priest shall look on
him; and, behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the priest
shall not seek for the yellow hair: he is unclean. 13:37 But if the
scall stay in its appearance, and black hair be grown up therein; the
scall is healed, he is clean; and the priest shall pronounce him
clean. 13:38 And if a man or a woman have in the skin of their flesh
bright spots, even white bright spots; 13:39 then the priest shall
look; and, behold, if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be
of a dull white, it is a tetter, it hath broken out in the skin: he
is clean.
> 13:40 And if a man's hair be fallen off his head,
he is bald; yet is he clean. 13:41 And if his hair be fallen off from
the front part of his head, he is forehead-bald; yet is he clean.
13:42 But if there be in the bald head, or the bald forehead, a
reddish-white plague, it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or
his bald forehead. 13:43 Then the priest shall look upon him; and,
behold, if the rising of the plague be reddish-white in his bald
head, or in his bald forehead, as the appearance of leprosy in the
skin of the flesh, 13:44 he is a leprous man, he is unclean; the
priest shall surely pronounce him unclean: his plague is in his head.
> 13:45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall
be rent, and the hair of his head shall go loose, and he shall cover
his upper lip, and shall cry: 'Unclean, unclean.' 13:46 All the days
wherein the plague is in him he shall be unclean; he is unclean; he
shall dwell alone; without the camp shall his dwelling be. 13:47 And
when the plague of leprosy is in a garment, whether it be a woolen
garment, or a linen garment; 13:48 or in the warp, or in the woof,
whether they be of linen, or of wool; or in a skin, or in any thing
made of skin. 13:49 If the plague be greenish or reddish in the
garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any
thing of skin, it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown unto
the priest. 13:50 And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut
up that which hath the plague seven days. 13:51 And he shall look on
the plague on the seventh day: if the plague be spread in the
garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever
service skin is used for, the plague is a malignant leprosy: it is
unclean. 13:52 And he shall burn the garment, or the warp, or the
woof, whether it be of wool or of linen, or any thing of skin,
wherein the plague is; for it is a malignant leprosy; it shall be
burnt in the fire. 13:53 And if the priest shall look, and, behold,
the plague be not spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the
woof, or in any thing of skin; 13:54 then the priest shall command
that they wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it
up seven days more. 13:55 And the priest shall look, after that the
plague is washed; and, behold, if the plague have not changed its
colour, and the plague be not spread, it is unclean; thou shalt burn
it in the fire; it is a fret, whether the bareness be within or
without. 13:56 And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague be dim
after the washing thereof, then he shall rend it out of the garment,
or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof. 13:57 And
if it appear still in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or
in any thing of skin, it is breaking out, thou shalt burn that
wherein the plague is with fire. 13:58 And the garment, or the warp,
or the woof, or whatsoever thing of skin it be, which thou shalt
wash, if the plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed
the second time, and shall be clean. 13:59 This is the law of the
plague of leprosy in a garment of wool or linen, or in the warp, or
in the woof, or in any thing of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to
pronounce it unclean.
