«وَإِذَا كَانَ رَجُلٌ أَوِ امْرَأَةٌ فِي جِلْدِ جَسَدِهِ لُمَعٌ، لُمَعٌ بِيضٌ،If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots;Leviticus 13:38, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَتَكُونَ أَنْوَارًا فِي جَلَدِ السَّمَاءِ لِتُنِيرَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». وَكَانَ كَذلِكَ.And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.Genesis 1:15, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
