"If a man's hair has fallen from his scalp, he is bald; but he is clean.
41
If his hair has fallen off the front part of his head, he is forehead-bald; but he is clean.
42
But if on the bald scalp or forehead there is a reddish-white sore, it is tzara'at breaking out on his bald scalp or forehead.
43
Then the cohen is to examine him; if he sees that there is a reddish-white swelling on his bald scalp or forehead, appearing like tzara'at on the rest of the body,
44
he is a person with tzara'at; he is unclean; the cohen must declare him unclean; the sore is on his head.
45
"Everyone who has tzara'at sores is to wear torn clothes and unbound hair, cover his upper lip and cry, 'Unclean! Unclean!'
46
As long as he has sores, he will be unclean; since he is unclean, he must live in isolation; he must live outside the camp.
47
"When tzara'at infects an article of clothing, whether it be a woolen or a linen garment,
48
on the threads or the woven-in parts of either linen or wool, or on a hide or item made of leather;
49
then if the stain on the garment, hide, threads, woven-in parts or leather item is greenish or reddish, it is an infection of tzara'at and is to be shown to the cohen.
50
The cohen is to examine the stain and isolate the article that has the infection for seven days.
