letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.

leprosy broken out of the burning: wherefore the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of
leprosy.

sore be white reddish in his
bald head, or in his
bald forehead, as the
leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;

warp, or in the
woof, or in any thing of skin;

mildew has not spread in the
fabric,
weave,
knit, or leather article,

behold, if the plague have not changed his colour, 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.

rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the
warp, or out of the
woof:

leprosy be
healed in the
leper;

afflicted person has
healed,

inspect the house. If the
mildew has spread on the walls,
Then the priest shall come and look, and,
behold, if the plague be spread in the house, it is a
fretting leprosy in the house: it is unclean.

inspect it. If the
mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive
mildew; the house is unclean.

behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then the priest shall
pronounce the house clean, because the plague is
healed.

mildew has not spread after the house has been replastered, he shall
pronounce the house clean, because the
mildew is gone.

reckoning themselves among the nations.
