TorahVaYikra (Leviticus) 12:1-13:59
12:1The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying, 12:2"Speak to the children of Yisra'el, saying, 'If a woman conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she shall be unclean. 12:3In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. 12:4She shall continue in the blood of purification thirty-three days. She shall not touch any holy thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed. 12:5But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her period; and she shall continue in the blood of purification sixty-six days. 12:6"'When the days of her purification are completed, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring to the kohen at the door of the Tent of Meeting, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering: 12:7and he shall offer it before the LORD, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. "'This is the law for her who bears, whether a male or a female. 12:8If she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the kohen shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.'" 13:1The LORD spoke to Moshe and to Aharon, saying, 13:2"When a man shall have a rising in his body's skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aharon the kohen, or to one of his sons the kohanim: 13:3and the kohen shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body's skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the kohen shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean. 13:4If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and the appearance of it isn't deeper than the skin, and the hair of it hasn't turned white, then the kohen shall isolate the infected person for seven days. 13:5The kohen shall examine him on the seventh day, and, behold, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the kohen shall isolate him for seven more days. [ Top ]
13:6The kohen shall examine him again on the seventh day; and, behold, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the kohen shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean. 13:7But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the kohen for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the kohen again. 13:8The kohen shall examine him; and, behold, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy. 13:9"When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the kohen; 13:10and the kohen shall examine him. Behold, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising, 13:11it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean. 13:12"If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the kohen; 13:13then the kohen shall examine him; and, behold, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean. 13:14But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean. 13:15The kohen shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy. 13:16Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the kohen; 13:17and the kohen shall examine him; and, behold, if the plague has turned white, then the kohen shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean. [ Top ]
13:18"When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed, 13:19and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the kohen; 13:20and the kohen shall examine it; and, behold, if the appearance of it is lower than the skin, and the hair of it has turned white, then the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil. 13:21But if the kohen examines it, and, behold, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the kohen shall isolate him seven days. 13:22If it spreads in the skin, then the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague. 13:23But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the kohen shall pronounce him clean. [ Top ]
13:24"Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white, 13:25then the kohen shall examine it; and, behold, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and the appearance of it is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. 13:26But if the kohen examines it, and, behold, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't lower than the skin, but is faded; then the kohen shall isolate him seven days. 13:27The kohen shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the kohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. 13:28If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the kohen shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn.

13:29"When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard, 13:30then the kohen shall examine the plague; and, behold, if the appearance of it is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the kohen shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard. 13:31If the kohen examines the plague of itching, and, behold, its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the kohen shall isolate him the person infected with itching seven days. 13:32On the seventh day the kohen shall examine the plague; and, behold, if the itch hasn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn't deeper than the skin, 13:33then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the kohen shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days. 13:34On the seventh day, the kohen shall examine the itch; and, behold, if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, then the kohen shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean. 13:35But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing, 13:36then the kohen shall examine him; and, behold, if the itch has spread in the skin, the kohen shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean. 13:37But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The kohen shall pronounce him clean. [ Top ]
13:38"When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots; 13:39then the kohen shall examine them; and, behold, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; he is clean. 13:40"If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean. 13:41If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean. 13:42But if there is in the bald head, or the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague; it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or his bald forehead. 13:43Then the kohen shall examine him; and, behold, if the rising of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh, 13:44he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The kohen shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head. 13:45"The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, 'Unclean! Unclean!' 13:46All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. Outside of the camp shall be his dwelling. 13:47"The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment; 13:48whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin; 13:49if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the kohen. 13:50The kohen shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days. 13:51He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean. 13:52He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is: for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire. 13:53"If the kohen examines it, and, behold, the plague hasn't spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin; 13:54then the kohen shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days. [ Top ]
13:55Then the kohen shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and, behold, if the plague hasn't changed its color, and the plague hasn't spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside. 13:56If the kohen looks, and, behold, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof: [ Top ]
13:57and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is. 13:58The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean." 13:59This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.

He departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing. 5:6He brought the letter to the king of Yisra'el, saying, Now when this letter is come
to you, behold, I have sent Na`aman my servant to you, that you may recover him of his
leprosy. 5:7It happened, when the king of Yisra'el had read the letter, that he tore his
clothes, and said, Am I 5:8It was so, when Elisha the man of 5:11But Na`aman was angry, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely

Loukas (Luke) 7:18-357:18The talmidim of Yochanan told him about all these things. 7:19Yochanan, calling to himself two of his talmidim, sent them to Yeshua, saying, "Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?" 7:20When the men had come to him, they said, "Yochanan the immerser has sent us to you, saying, 'Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?'" 7:21In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight. 7:22Yeshua answered them, "Go and tell Yochanan the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. 7:23Blessed is he who is not offended by me." 7:24When Yochanan's messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about Yochanan, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? 7:25But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings' courts. 7:26But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet. 7:27This is he of whom it is written, 'Behold, I send my messenger before your face, 7:28"For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a
greater prophet than Yochanan the immerser, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of 7:29When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared 7:31But the Lord said, "To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like? 7:32They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, 'We piped to you, and you didn't dance. We mourned, and you didn't weep.' 7:33For Yochanan the immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.' 7:34The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' 7:35Wisdom is justified by all her children."
