1
If anyone should have in the skin of their flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it be in the skin of their flesh like the plague of tzara’ata, then they shall be brought unto the Priest or the Priestess;
2
When the plague is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the Priest; and when the plague is in a woman, then she shall be brought unto the Priestess;
3
And the Priest or Priestess shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh; and when the hair in the plague is turned white and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of their flesh, it is a plague of tzara’at; and the Priest or Priestess shall look on them and pronounce them uncleana.
4
If the bright spot be white in the skin of their flesh, and in sight be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white, then the Priest or Priestess shall shut them up in quarantinea thy that hath the plague seven days;
5
And the Priest or Priestess shall look on them the seventh day; and behold, if the plague in their sight be at a stay and the plague hath spread not in the skin, then the Priest or Priestess shall shut them up seven days more;
6
And the Priest or Priestess shall look on them again the seventh day; and behold, if the plague be somewhat dark and the plague spread not in the skin, the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them cleana; it is but a rash or a scab or a boil; and they shall wash their clothes and be clean.
7
But if the rash spread much abroad in the skin after they hath been seen of the Priest or Priestess for their cleansing, they shall be seen of the Priest or Priestess again;
8
And if the Priest or Priestess see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin, then the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them unclean; it is tzara’at.
9
When the plague of tzara’at is in someone, then they shall be brought unto the High Priest or High Priestessa;
10
And the High Priest or High Priestess shall see them; and behold, if the rising be white in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and there be quick, raw flesh in the rising, it is a chronic disease in the skin of their flesh;
11
And the High Priest or High Priestess shall pronounce them unclean and shall not shut them up; for they are unclean.
12
¶ And if a tzara’at break out abroad in the skin and the tzara’at cover all the skin of they that hath the plague, from their head even to their foot, wheresoever the High Priest or High Priestess looketh,
13
Then the High Priest or High Priestess shall consider; and behold, if the tzara’at have covered all their flesh, they shall pronounce them clean that hath the plague; it is all turned white; they are clean.
14
But when raw flesh appeareth in them, they shall be unclean:
15
And the Priest or Priestess shall see the raw flesh and pronounce them to be unclean; for the raw flesh is unclean; it is tzara’at.
16
Or if the raw flesh turn again and be changed unto white, they shall come unto the Priest or Priestess;
17
And the Priest or Priestess shall see them; and behold, if the plague be turned into white, then the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them clean that hath the plague; they are clean.
18
The flesh also in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil and is healed, and in the place of the boil there be a white rising or a bright spot, white and somewhat reddish, and it be showed to the Priest or Priestess,
19
And if, when the Priest or Priestess seeth it, behold, it be in sight lower than the skin and the hair thereof be turned white, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a plague of tzara’at broken out of the boil.
20
But if the Priest or Priestess look on it and, behold, there be no white hairs therein, and if it be not lower than the skin, but be somewhat dark, then the Priest or Priestess shall shut them upa seven days;
21
And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them unclean; it is a plague.
22
¶ If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard, then the Priest or Priestess shall see the plague;
23
And behold, if it be in sight deeper than the skin and there be in it a yellow thin hair, then the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them unclean; it is an outbreak, even tzara’at upon the head or beard.
24
And if the Priest or Priestess look on the plague and, behold, it be not in sight deeper than the skin, and that there is no black hair in it, then the Priest or Priestess shall shut them up that hath the plague seven days;
25
And in the seventh day the Priest or Priestess shall look on the plague; and behold, if the outbreak spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the outbreak be not in sight deeper than the skin, they shall be shaven;
26
But the outbreak shall they not shave; and the Priest or Priestess shall shut them upa that hath the outbreak seven days more.
27
And in the seventh day the Priest or Priestess shall look on the outbreak;
28
And behold, if the outbreak be not spread in the skin nor be in sight deeper than the skin, then the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them cleana; and they shall wash their clothesb and be clean.
29
But if the outbreak spread much in the skin after their cleansing, then the Priest or Priestess shall look on them;
30
And behold, if the outbreak be spread in the skin, the Priest or Priestess shall not seek for yellow hair; they are unclean.
31
But if the outbreak be in their sight at a staya and that there is black hair grown up therein, the outbreak is healed; they are clean, and the Priest or Priestess shall pronounce them clean.
32
¶ If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spotsa, even white bright spots, then the Priest and Priestess shall look;
33
And behold, if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be darkish white, it is a freckled spot that groweth in the skin; they are clean.
34
¶ And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet he is clean.
35
And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald; yet he is clean.
36
And if there be in the bald head or bald forehead a white reddish sore, it is a tzara’ata sprung up in his bald head or his bald forehead.
37
Then the Priest shall look upon it; and behold, if the rising of the sore be white reddish in his bald head or in his bald forehead, as the tzara’at appeareth in the skin of the flesh, he or she is unclean; the Priest shall pronounce them utterly unclean; their plague is in their head.
38
¶ And the tzara’at in whom the plague is, their clothes shall be rent, and their head bare, and they shall put a covering upon their moutha, and shall cry: Unclean, unclean.
39
All the days wherein the plague shall be in them they shall be defiled; they are unclean; they shall dwell alone; without the camp shall their habitation be.
40
¶ The garment also that the plague of tzara’at is in, whether it be a woolen garment or a linen garment, whether it be in the warp or woofa, of linen or of woolen, whether in a skinb or in anything made of skin,
41
And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment or in the skin, either in the warp or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a plague of tzara’at and shall be showed unto the Priest or the Priestess.
42
And the Priest or Priestess shall look upon the plague and shut up it that hath the plague seven days;
43
And they shall look on the plague on the seventh day; if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any work that is made of skin, the plague is a fretting tzara’at; it is unclean.
44
They shall, therefore, burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woolen or in linen, or anything of skin wherein the plague is; for it is a fretting tzara’at; it shall be burnt in the fire.
45
And if the Priest or Priestess shall look and, behold, the plague be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, then the Priest or Priestess shall command that they wash the thing wherein the plague is, and they shall be shut up seven days more;
46
And the Priest or Priestess shall look on the plague after that it is washed; and behold, if the plague has not changed its color and the plague be not spread, it is unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bare within or without.
47
And if the Priest or Priestess look and, behold, the plague be somewhat dark after the washing of it, then they shall rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof;
48
And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a spreading plague; thou shalt burn that wherein the plague is with fire.
49
And the garment, either warp, or 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.
50
¶ This is the Toraha of the plague of tzara’at in a garment of woolen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or anything of skins, to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean.
51
These are the instructions and the judgments which YHVH commanded, by the hand of Moses, unto Israel.
