Leviticus 13:47

Infections in Garments, Cloth, or Leather

13:47 “When a garment has a diseased infection in it, ¹  whether a wool or linen garment, ² 

Leviticus 13:53

13:53 But if the priest examines it and ³  the infection has not spread in the garment or in the warp or in the woof or in any article of leather,

Leviticus 13:49

13:49 if the infection ⁴  in the garment or leather or warp or woof or any article of leather is yellowish green or reddish, it is a diseased infection and it must be shown to the priest.

Leviticus 13:51

13:51 He must then examine the infection on the seventh day. If the infection has spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the leather – whatever the article into which the leather was made ⁵  – the infection is a malignant disease. It is unclean.

Leviticus 13:57

13:57 Then if ⁶  it still appears again in the garment or the warp or the woof, or in any article of leather, it is an outbreak. Whatever has the infection in it you must burn up in the fire.
