耶和華曉諭摩西說：「 長大痲瘋得潔淨的日子，其例乃是這樣：要帶他去見祭司； ……這是為各類大痲瘋的災病和頭疥， 並衣服與房子的大痲瘋， 以及癤子、癬、火斑所立的條例， 指明何時為潔淨，何時為不潔淨。這是大痲瘋的條例。 利未記 14:1-2, 54-57
The Lord told Moses to say to the people: After you think you are healed of leprosy, you must ask for a priest to come outside the camp and examine you. And if you are well, ……These are the things you must do if you discover that you are unclean because of an itch or a sore, or that your clothing or house is unclean because of mildew. Leviticus 14:1-3, 54-57
