9When an infection of leprosy is in a person, then he shall be brought to the priest.

10and the priest examines him, and behold, there is a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,

11it is a chronic skin disease in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean; he shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.
