Leviticus 13:23-25
New English Translation
23 But if the bright spot stays in its place and has not spread,[a] it is the scar of the boil, so the priest is to pronounce him clean.[b]
A Burn on the Skin
24 “When a body has a burn on its skin[c] and the raw area of the burn becomes a reddish white or white bright spot, 25 the priest must examine it,[d] and if[e] the hair has turned white in the bright spot and it appears to be deeper than the skin,[f] it is a disease that has broken out in the burn.[g] The priest is to pronounce the person unclean.[h] It is a diseased infection.[i]

New International Version
23 But if the spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil, and the priest shall pronounce them clean.(A)
24 “When someone has a burn on their skin and a reddish-white or white spot appears in the raw flesh of the burn, 25 the priest is to examine the spot, and if the hair in it has turned white, and it appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease.(B)
