Exegesis
The conjunction wə·hinnêh {וְהִנֵּה֙ | wə·hinnêh} ‘and behold’ introduces focused observation, and the conditional protasis centers on two Qal perfect verbs (kê·hāh and wə·lō·pā·säh) describing the appearance and non-spread of han·né·ga‘ {הַנֶּ֔גַע | han·né·ga‘} ‘the plague spot’.

In context — Leviticus 13:6
And the priest shall examine him again on the seventh day, and behold, if the infection has faded and has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is a rash. He shall wash his clothes, and he will be clean.
