⁴⁴ the man is diseased and is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him unclean because of the sore on his head.

⁴⁵ “Anyone with such a defiling disease must wear torn clothes,^(A) let their hair be unkempt,^[a] cover the lower part of their face^(B) and cry out, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’^{(C) 46} As long as they have the disease they remain unclean. They must live alone; they must live outside the camp.^(D)

⁴ “‘If a descendant of Aaron has a defiling skin disease^[a] or a bodily discharge,^(A) he may not eat the sacred offerings until he is cleansed. He will also be unclean if he touches something defiled by a corpse^(B) or by anyone who has an emission of semen, ⁵ or if he touches any crawling thing^(C) that makes him unclean, or any person^(D) who makes him unclean, whatever the uncleanness may be. ⁶ The one who touches any such thing will be unclean^(E) till evening.^(F) He must not eat any of the sacred offerings unless he has bathed himself with water.^{(G) 7} When the sun goes down, he will be clean, and after that he may eat the sacred offerings, for they are his food.^(H)
