And the priest shall look upon the plague The green or red spot in the garment
and shut up [it that hath] the plague seven days; the woollen or linen garment, the warp or the woof, or skins, and those things that were made of them.

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.
51
On the seventh day he is to examine the stain; if the stain has spread on the garment, threads, woven-in parts or leather, whatever its use, the infection is a contagious tzara'at; the garment is unclean.
52
He is to burn the garment, threads, woven-in parts of either wool or linen, or item of leather having the infection; for it is a contagious tzara'at; it must be burned up completely.
