³“Then the priest shall look at the mark on the skin of the ¹body, and if the hair in the infection has turned white and the infection appears to be deeper than the skin of his ²body, it is an infection of leprosy; when the priest has looked at him, he shall pronounce him unclean.

⁴“But if the bright spot is white on the skin of his ¹body, and ²it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and the hair on it has not turned white, then the priest shall ³isolate him who has the infection for seven days.
