Leviticus 14:38-46 ▼

38 The priest is to leave through the entrance to the house and seal the house for seven days.

39 He is to return after seven days to examine it. If the contagion has spread to the walls of the house,

40 then the priest is to command that they take out the contaminated stones and discard them in an unclean place outside the city.

41 |Now as for the house, they are to scrape off inside and outside the house and then discard the torn out plaster in an unclean place outside the city.

42 They are then to take other stones and bring them to replace those stones. Lastly, they are to replaster the house.|

43 |If the contagion returns and spreads throughout the house after the stones have been removed, after the house has been scraped out, and after it has been re-coated,

44 and the priest comes, undertakes an examination, and determines that the contagion has spread in the house, it's a chronic fungal infection in the house. It's unclean.

45 He is to pull down the house, its stones, its lumber, and all the plaster on the house, and discard them in an unclean place outside the city.

46 Moreover, whoever enters the house during the time it was isolated is to be considered unclean until the evening.
