Leviticus 13:13-15
New English Translation
13 the priest must then examine it,[a] and if[b] the disease covers his whole body, he is to pronounce the person with the infection clean.[c] He has turned all white, so he is clean.[d] 14 But whenever raw flesh appears in it[e] he will be unclean, 15 so the priest is to examine the raw flesh[f] and pronounce him unclean[g]—it is diseased.
