Leviticus 13:16-26

Listen to Leviticus 13:16-26
16 But if the raw flesh turns white again, he must go to the priest.
17 The priest will examine him again, and if the diseased area has turned white, the priest must declare the diseased person clean. He is clean.
18 "If a boil on the skin has healed
19 and in its place there is a white sore or a pink area, it must be shown to the priest.
20 The priest will examine it. If it looks deeper than the rest of the skin and its hair has turned white, the priest must declare the person unclean. An infectious skin disease has developed in the boil.
21 But if the priest examines the affected area and the hair in it is not white or the affected area is not deeper than the rest of the skin but has faded, the priest must put him in isolation for seven days.
22 If the area has spread, the priest must declare him unclean. It is a skin disease.
23 But if the irritated area has not spread, it is a scar caused by the boil. The priest must declare him clean.
24 "If anyone has a burn on his skin and the raw flesh of the burn turns into a pink or bright white area,
25 the priest will examine it. If the hair on the affected area has turned white and the affected area looks deeper than the rest of the skin, an infectious skin disease has developed in the burn. The priest must declare him unclean. It is an infectious skin disease.
26 But if the priest examines it and the hair in it is not white and the affected area is not deeper than the rest of the skin but has faded, the priest must put him in isolation for seven days.
