Leviticus - Chapter 13 | King James Version (KJV)

  • 1. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
  • 2. When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh {cf15I like} the plague of leprosy; then he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
  • 3. And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and {cf15I when} the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight {cf15I be} deeper than the skin of his flesh, it {cf15I is} a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.
  • 4. If the bright spot {cf15I be} white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight {cf15I be} not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white; then the priest shall shut up {cf15I him that hath} the plague seven days:
  • 5. And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold, {cf15I if} the plague in his sight be at a stay, {cf15I and} the plague spread not in the skin; then the priest shall shut him up seven days more:
  • 6. And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold, {cf15I if} the plague {cf15I be} somewhat dark, {cf15I and} the plague spread not in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean: it {cf15I is but} a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
  • 7. But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again:
  • 8. And {cf15I if} the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} a leprosy.
  • 9. When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest;
  • 10. And the priest shall see {cf15I him}: and, behold, {cf15I if} the rising {cf15I be} white in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and {cf15I there be} quick raw flesh in the rising;
  • 11. It {cf15I is} an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up: for he {cf15I is} unclean.
  • 12. And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of {cf15I him that hath} the plague from his head even to his foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;
  • 13. Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, {cf15I if} the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce {cf15I him} clean {cf15I that hath} the plague: it is all turned white: he {cf15I is} clean.
  • 14. But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
  • 15. And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean: {cf15I for} the raw flesh {cf15I is} unclean: it {cf15I is} a leprosy.
  • 16. Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto white, he shall come unto the priest;
  • 17. And the priest shall see him: and, behold, {cf15I if} the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce {cf15I him} clean {cf15I that hath} the plague: he {cf15I is} clean.
  • 18. The flesh also, in which, {cf15I even} in the skin thereof, was a boil, and is healed,
  • 19. And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be shewed to the priest;
  • 20. And if, when the priest seeth it, behold, it {cf15I be} in sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil.
  • 21. But if the priest look on it, and, behold, {cf15I there be} no white hairs therein, and {cf15I if} it {cf15I be} not lower than the skin, but {cf15I be} somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
  • 22. And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} a plague.
  • 23. But if the bright spot stay in his place, {cf15I and} spread not, it {cf15I is} a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
  • 24. Or if there be {cf15I any} flesh, in the skin whereof {cf15I there is} a hot burning, and the quick {cf15I flesh} that burneth have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;
  • 25. Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, {cf15I if} the hair in the bright spot be turned white, and it {cf15I be in} sight deeper than the skin; it {cf15I is} a leprosy broken out of the burning: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} the plague of leprosy.
  • 26. But if the priest look on it, and, behold, {cf15I there be} no white hair in the bright spot, and it {cf15I be} no lower than the {cf15I other} skin, but {cf15I be} somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
  • 27. And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day: {cf15I and} if it be spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} the plague of leprosy.
  • 28. And if the bright spot stay in his place, {cf15I and} spread not in the skin, but it {cf15I be} somewhat dark; it {cf15I is} a rising of the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean: for it {cf15I is} an inflammation of the burning.
  • 29. If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard;
  • 30. Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold, if it {cf15I be} in sight deeper than the skin; {cf15I and there be} in it a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it {cf15I is} a dry scall, {cf15I even} a leprosy upon the head or beard.
  • 31. And if the priest look on the plague of the scall, and, behold, it {cf15I be} not in sight deeper than the skin, and {cf15I that there is} no black hair in it; then the priest shall shut up {cf15I him that hath} the plague of the scall seven days:
  • 32. And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and, behold, {cf15I if} the scall spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall {cf15I be} not in sight deeper than the skin;
  • 33. He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut up {cf15I him that hath} the scall seven days more:
  • 34. And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and, behold, {cf15I if} the scall be not spread in the skin, nor {cf15I be} in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
  • 35. But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleansing;
  • 36. Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he {cf15I is} unclean.
  • 37. But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and {cf15I that} there is black hair grown up therein; the scall is healed, he {cf15I is} clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
  • 38. If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spots, {cf15I even} white bright spots;
  • 39. Then the priest shall look: and, behold, {cf15I if} the bright spots in the skin of their flesh {cf15I be} darkish white; it {cf15I is} a freckled spot {cf15I that} groweth in the skin; he {cf15I is} clean.
  • 40. And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he {cf15I is} bald; {cf15I yet is} he clean.
  • 41. And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he {cf15I is} forehead bald: {cf15I yet is} he clean.
  • 42. And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore; it {cf15I is} a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
  • 43. Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, {cf15I if} the rising of the sore {cf15I be} white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
  • 44. He is a leprous man, he {cf15I is} unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague {cf15I is} in his head.
  • 45. And the leper in whom the plague {cf15I is}, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
  • 46. All the days wherein the plague {cf15I shall be} in him he shall be defiled; he {cf15I is} unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp {cf15I shall} his habitation {cf15I be}.
  • 47. The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, {cf15I whether it be} a woollen garment, or a linen garment;
  • 48. Whether {cf15I it be} in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of woollen; whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
  • 49. 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 any thing of skin; it {cf15I is} a plague of leprosy, and shall be shewed unto the priest:
  • 50. And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut up {cf15I it that hath} the plague seven days:
  • 51. And he 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, {cf15I or} in any work that is made of skin; the plague {cf15I is} a fretting leprosy; it {cf15I is} unclean.
  • 52. He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woollen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for it {cf15I is} a fretting leprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
  • 53. And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin;
  • 54. Then the priest shall command that they wash {cf15I the thing} wherein the plague {cf15I is}, and he shall shut it up seven days more:
  • 55. And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold, {cf15I if} the plague have not changed his colour, and the plague be not spread; it {cf15I is} unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it {cf15I is} fret inward, {cf15I whether} it {cf15I be} bare within or without.
  • 56. And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague {cf15I be} somewhat dark after the washing of it; then he shall rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
  • 57. And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it {cf15I is} a spreading {cf15I plague}: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague {cf15I is} with fire.
  • 58. And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of skin {cf15I 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.
  • 59. This {cf15I is} the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
