Leviticus 13:37-47

37 But if the scall shall be in his sight at a stay, and there is black hair grown in it; the scall is healed, he [is] clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a man also or a woman shall have in the skin of their flesh bright spots, [even] white bright spots;
39 Then the priest shall look: and behold, [if] the bright spots in the skin of their flesh [are] darkish white; it [is] a freckled spot [that] groweth in the skin; he [is] clean.
40 And the man whose hair hath fallen off his head, he [is] bald; [yet is] he clean.
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head towards his face, he [is] forehead-bald; [yet is] he clean.
42 And if there is in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore; [it is] a leprosy sprung up on his bald head, or his bald forehead.
43 Then the priest shall look upon it: and behold, [if] the rising of the sore is white reddish on his bald head, or on his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
44 He is a leprous man, he [is] unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague [is] in his head.
45 And the leper in whom the plague [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 in which the plague [shall be] in him he shall be defiled; he [is] unclean: he shall dwell alone, without the camp [shall] his habitation [be].
47 The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, [whether] a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
