35the owner of the house is to come and tell the priest: Something like mildew contamination has appeared in my house.35the owner of the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘Something like mildew has appeared in my house.’
36The priest must order them to clear the house before he enters to examine the contamination, so that nothing in the house becomes unclean. Afterward the priest will come to examine the house.36The 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.

44the priest is to come and examine it. If the contamination has spread in the house, it is harmful mildew; the house is unclean.44the priest must come and inspect it. If the mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean.
45It must be torn down with its stones, its beams, and all its plaster, and taken outside the city to an unclean place.45It must be torn down with its stones, its timbers, and all its plaster, and taken outside the city to an unclean place.
