And the LORD struck the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a separate house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the house, judging the people of the land.

All the days in which the disease shall be in him he shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone; outside the camp shall his habitation be.

Both male and female shall you put out, outside the camp shall you put them; that they defile not their camps, in the midst of which I dwell.

And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.

And there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
