Leviticus 13:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 The man that shall have in the skin of his flesh a swelling or a scab, or a white spot, so that in the skin of his flesh [a]it be like the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought unto Aaron the Priest, or unto one of his sons the Priests,
3 And the Priest shall look on the sore in the skin of his flesh: if the hair in the sore be turned into white, and the sore seen to be [b]lower than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: therefore the Priest shall look on him, and [c]pronounce him unclean.
4 But if the white spot be in the skin of his flesh, and seem not to be lower than the skin, nor the hair thereof be turned unto white, then the Priest shall shut up him that hath the plague, seven days.

Leviticus 13:2-4
New International Version
2 “When anyone has a swelling(A) or a rash or a shiny spot(B) on their skin that may be a defiling skin disease,[a](C) they must be brought to Aaron the priest(D) or to one of his sons[b] who is a priest. 3 The priest is to examine the sore on the skin, and if the hair in the sore has turned white and the sore appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling skin disease. When the priest examines that person, he shall pronounce them ceremonially unclean.(E) 4 If the shiny spot(F) on the skin is white but does not appear to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.(G)
