Leviticus 13:47-59
1599 Geneva Bible
47 ¶ Also the garment that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it be a woolen garment or a linen garment,
48 Whether it be in the warp or in the woof of linen or of woolen, either in a skin, or in anything made of skin,
49 And if the sore be green or somewhat reddish in the garment or in the skin, or in the warp or in the woof, or in anything that is made of [a]skin, it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be showed unto the Priest.
50 Then the Priest shall see the plague, and shut up it that hath the plague, seven days,
51 And shall look on the plague the seventh day: if the plague grow in the garment or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, or in anything that is made of skin, that plague is a fretting leprosy and unclean.
52 And he shall burn the garment, or the warp, or the woof, whether it be woolen or linen, or anything that is made of skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a fretting leprosy, therefore it shall be burnt in the fire.
53 If the Priest yet see that the plague [b]grow not in the garment, or in the woof, or in whatsoever thing of skin it be,
54 Then the Priest shall command them to wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more.
55 Again the Priest shall look on the plague, after it is washed: and if the plague have not changed his [c]color, though the plague spread no further, it is unclean: thou shalt burn it in the fire, for it is a fret inward, [d]whether the spot be in the bare place of the whole, or in part thereof.
56 And if the Priest see that the plague be darker, after that it is washed, he shall cut 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 or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin, it is a spreading leprosy: thou shalt burn the thing wherein the plague is, in the fire.
58 If thou hast washed the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or whatsoever thing of skin it be, if the plague be departed therefrom, then shall it be washed [e]the second time, and be clean.
59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woolen or linen, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, to make it clean or unclean.
