Luther Bible 1545 (English)
unclean.
And if the scab stand still before the eyes, and the hair of the scab come up there, then the scab is healed, and he is clean. Therefore the priest shall pronounce him clean.
If a man or woman have any pus white in the skin of their flesh, 39. And the priest saw there that the white of the pus was gone out, which was a white scab in the skin, and he was clean.
If the hair of a man’s head fall out, and he be bald, he is clean.
If they fall out of the front of his head, and become bald, he is clean.
But if there be a white or a reddish mark on his bald head, or if he be bald, then there be leprosy on his bald head, or on his bald head.
Therefore the priest shall examine him. If he finds a white or reddish mark on his bald head or on his bald head, he shall see it, as if it were a leprosy on the skin, 44. And he shall be a leper, and unclean: and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, because of that plague upon his head.
Whosoever therefore is a leper, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and his lips covered with veils; and he shall be called unclean in all things: 46. And as long as the mark is upon him, he shall be unclean, dwelling alone, and his habitation
shall be without the camp.
If a leper’s garment be marked, whether it be woollen or linen, 48. in the yard or in the concord, whether it be linen or wool, or in a skin, or in anything made of skins;
And if the plague be pale, or reddish, in the garment, or in the skin, or in the woof, or in the woof, or in any thing made of skins, it is surely a plague of leprosy: therefore the priest shall see it.
And when he seeth the mark, he shall shut it up seven days.
And if he see on the seventh day that the plague hath eaten away at the garment, or at the woof, or at the concord, or at the skin, or at any thing that is made of skins, it is a plague of leprosy, and is unclean.
And he shall burn the garment, or the woof, or the concord, whether it be woollen, or linen, or any skin that hath such a plague in it: for it is a plague of leprosy: and he shall burn it with fire.
And the priest shall see that the plague hath not spread upon the garment, or upon the woof, or upon the concord, or upon all manner of skins,
And he shall command that it be washed, wherein the plague is: and he shall shut it up seven days more.
And if the priest shall see, after the plague is washed, that the plague is not changed in his sight, neither hath it eaten any more: it is unclean, and thou shalt burn it with fire: for it is eaten deep, and hath made it scabby.
And if the priest see that the plague be gone after he hath washed it, then he shall pluck it off the garment, or off the skin, or off the woof, or off the concord.
And if it be yet seen in the garment, or in the woof, or in the concord, or in any thing of the skin, it is a stain; and thou shalt burn it with fire, wherein is such a stain.
But the garment, or the woof, or the concord, or any skin that is washed, and hath the stain left upon it, let it be washed again, and it shall be clean.
This is the law concerning the marks of leprosy upon garments, whether they be woollen or linen, upon the woof, and upon the concord, and upon all manner of furs, to speak clean or unclean.
(Leviticus)
Chapter 14
Cleansing the leprosy.
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
This is the law concerning the leper, when he shall be cleansed. He shall come to the priest, 3. And the priest shall come out of the camp, and see how the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper;
And he shall command him that is to be cleansed to take two live fowls that are clean, and cedar wood, and the wool of brass, and hyssop.
And he shall command that one bird be slain in an earthen vessel by running water.
And he shall take the living bird, and the cedar wood, and the wool of raisin, and the hyssop, and dip it in the blood of the slain bird, by the running water.
And sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from leprosy seven times; and so cleanse him, and let the living bird fly into the open field.
And he that is cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water; and he shall be clean. After that he shall go into the camp: but he shall tarry out of his tent seven days.
And on the seventh day he shall shave off all the hair of his head, and of his beard, and of his eyebrows, and all his hair shall be shaven off: and he shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and he shall be clean.
And on the eighth day he shall take two lambs without change, and one ewe lamb of the first year without change, and three tenths of fine flour for a meat offering mingled with oil, and one log of oil.
And the priest shall present the same cleansed, and these things, before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
And he shall take one lamb, and offer it for a trespass offering with the log oil, and shall wave it before the LORD;
And afterward they shall kill the lamb, when they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, even in the holy place: for as the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering of the priest: for it is the most holy.
And the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
And afterward he shall take of the oil out of the log, and pour it into his (the priest’s) left hand,
And he shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and sprinkle the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD.
And the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall he put upon the cartilage of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon his right thumb, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering.
And the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall he put upon the head of him that is cleansed, and make an atonement for him before the LORD.
And he shall make a sin offering, and make an atonement for him that is clean for his uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering.
And he shall offer it upon the altar with the meat offering, and make an atonement for him; and he shall be clean.
But if he be poor, and have not so much as this in his hand, let him take a lamb for a trespass offering, to make an atonement for him; and a tithe of fine flour mingled with oil, for a meat offering, and a log of oil.
And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, which he may purchase with his hand: the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering;
And on the eighth day of his cleansing bring them unto the priest at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the LORD.
And the priest shall take the lamb for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and shall wave it all before the LORD;
And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and take of the blood of the same trespass offering, and put it upon the cartilage of his right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot;
And pour the oil into his (the priest’s) left hand.
And with his right finger shall he sprinkle the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD.
And the rest of the blood that is in his hand shall he put upon the cartilage of his right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering.
And the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall he put upon the head of him that is cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the LORD,
and afterward out of the one turtledove, or young pigeon, as his hand hath pleased to acquire, 31. One sin offering, and the other a burnt offering with the meat offering. And the priest shall make an atonement for him that is clean before the LORD.
Let this be the law for the leper, who cannot acquire with his hand what belongs to his cleansing.
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
And it shall come to pass, when ye are come into the land of Canaan, which I will give you for a possession, that there shall be a plague of leprosy
