³⁵ But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,

⁷ But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again.

²⁷ The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.

¹⁶ But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,

¹⁷ and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

¹³ But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
