38 he must go out of the house and lock the house for seven days.
39 “On the seventh day the priest must come back and check the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls of the house,
40 then he must order the people to tear out the stones with the mildew on them and throw them away. They must put these stones at a special unclean place outside the city.
41 Then the priest must have the entire house scraped inside. The people must throw away the plaster that was scraped off the walls. They must put that plaster at a special unclean place outside the city.
42 Then new stones must be put in the walls, and the walls must be covered with new plaster.
43 “Maybe someone took away the old stones and plaster and put in new stones and plaster. And maybe mildew again appears in that house.
44 Then the priest must come in and check the house. If the infection has spread in the house, it is a disease that spreads quickly to other places. So the house is unclean.
