This is the law for someone who has a skin disease and cannot afford the cost of his cleansing.”

“When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your possession, and I put a contamination of mildew into a house in that land,

…the owner of the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘Something like mildew has appeared in my house.’

The priest must order that the house be cleared before he enters it to examine the mildew, so that nothing in the house will become unclean. After this, the priest shall go in to inspect the house.

He is to examine the house, and if the mildew on the walls consists of green or red depressions that appear to be beneath the surface of the wall,

On the seventh day the priest is to return and inspect the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls,

…he must order that the contaminated stones be pulled out and thrown into an unclean place outside the city.

If the mildew reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house has been scraped and replastered,

…the priest must come and inspect it. If the mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean.

If, however, the priest comes and inspects it, and the mildew has not spread after the house has been replastered, he shall pronounce the house clean, because the mildew is gone.

This is the law for any infectious skin disease, for a scaly outbreak,

If a case is too difficult for you to judge, whether the controversy within your gates is regarding bloodshed, lawsuits, or assaults, you must go up to the place the LORD your God will choose.

And the priests, the sons of Levi, shall come forward, for the LORD your God has chosen them to serve Him and pronounce blessings in His name and to give a ruling in every dispute and case of assault.

In cases of infectious skin diseases, be careful to diligently follow everything the Levitical priests instruct you. Be careful to do as I have commanded them.

I will be his Father, and he will be My son. When he does wrong, I will discipline him with the rod of men and with the blows of the sons of men.

When famine or plague comes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemy besieges them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may come,

…then may whatever prayer or petition Your people Israel make—each knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—

When famine or plague comes upon the land, or blight or mildew or locusts or grasshoppers, or when their enemies besiege them in their cities, whatever plague or sickness may come,

…then may whatever prayer or plea Your people Israel make—each knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—

My beloved and friends shun my disease, and my kinsmen stand at a distance.

Remove Your scourge from me; I am perishing by the force of Your hand.

I will attend to their transgression with the rod, and to their iniquity with stripes.

…no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.

Wounds and dishonor will befall him, and his reproach will never be wiped away.

By oppression and judgment He was taken away, and who can recount His descendants? For He was cut off from the land of the living; He was stricken for the transgression of My people.
