Levitiko 13
1 Yehova anawuza Mose ndi Aaroni kuti,
Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 “Munthu akakhala ndi chithupsa, kapena mʼbuko, kapena chikanga pa thupi lake chimene chitha kusanduka nthenda ya khate, abwere naye munthuyo kwa Aaroni wansembe kapena kwa mmodzi mwa ana ake amene ndi ansembe.
“When anyone has on the skin of his body a swelling or scab or a bright spot, and it becomes infected and there is a skin disease in his body, then he must be brought to Aaron the high priest, or to one of his sons the priests.
3 Tsono wansembe ayangʼanitsitse nthendayo pa khungupo, ndipo ngati ubweya wa pamalo pamene pali nthendapo wasanduka woyera, komanso kuti nthendayo yazama mʼkati kupitirira khungu, ndiye kuti nthendayo ndi khate. Wansembe akamuonetsetsa alengeze kuti ndi wodetsedwa.
Then the priest will examine the disease in the skin of his body. If the hair in the diseased area has turned white, and if the disease appears to be deeper than just on the skin, then it is an infectious disease. After the priest examines him, he must pronounce him unclean.
4 Ngati chikanga cha pa khungulo chikuoneka choyera, ndipo kuya kwake sikukuonekera kuti kwapitirira khungu ndi ubweya wake pamalopo sunasanduke woyera, wansembe amuyike wodwalayo padera kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
If the bright spot in his skin is white, and the appearance of it is no deeper than the skin, and if the hair in the diseased area has not turned white, then the priest must isolate the one with the disease for seven days.
5 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembe amuonenso bwino wodwalayo. Ndipo ngati waona kuti nthendayo sinasinthe ndipo sinafalikire pa khungu, amuyikenso wodwalayo padera kwa masiku ena asanu ndi awiri.
On the seventh day, the priest must examine him to see if in his opinion the disease is not any worse, and if it has not spread in the skin. If it has not, then the priest must isolate him seven days more.
6 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembeyo amuonenso bwino munthuyo, ndipo ngati nthendayo yazima ndi kusafalikira pa khungu, wansembe amutchule munthuyo kuti ndi woyera. Umenewo unali mʼbuko chabe. Choncho munthuyo achape zovala zake ndipo adzakhala woyera.
The priest will examine him again on the seventh day to see if the disease is better and has not spread farther in the skin. If it has not, then the priest will pronounce him clean. It is a rash. He must wash his clothes, and then he is clean.
7 Koma ngati mʼbukowo ufalikira pakhungu atakadzionetsa kale kwa wansembe ndipo wansembeyo nʼkulengeza kuti munthuyo ndi woyeretsedwa, ndiye kuti apitenso kukadzionetsa kwa wansembeyo.
But if the rash has spread in the skin after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he must then show himself to the priest again.
8 Wansembe amuonetsetsenso munthuyo, ndipo ngati mʼbukowo wafalikira pa khungu, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa ndi kuti nthendayo ndi khate.
The priest will examine him to see if the rash has spread farther in the skin. If it has spread, then the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious disease.
9 “Ngati munthu aliyense ali ndi nthenda ya pakhungu yoyipitsa thupi, wodwalayo abwere naye kwa wansembe.
When an infectious skin disease is in someone, then he must be brought to the priest.
10 Wansembe amuonetsetse munthuyo, ndipo ngati ali ndi chithupsa chamaonekedwe woyera pa khungupo chimene chasandutsa ubweya wa pamalopo kukhala woyera, ndipo ngati pali zilonda pa chotupacho,
The priest will examine him to see if there is a white swelling in the skin, if the hair has turned white, or if there is raw flesh in the swelling.
11 limenelo ndi khate lachikhalire la pa khungu, ndipo wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Asamutsekere munthu woteroyo pakuti ndi wodetsedwa kale.
If there is, then it is a chronic skin disease, and the priest must pronounce him unclean. He will not isolate him, because he is already unclean.
12 “Ndipo ngati, mʼkuona kwa wansembe, khate lija lafalikira pa khungu lonse moti lamugwira thupi lonse kuyambira kumutu mpaka kumapazi,
If the disease breaks out widely in the skin and covers all the skin of the person with the disease from his head to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest,
13 wansembe amuonetsetse munthuyo, ndipo ngati khatero lagwira thupi lake lonse, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi woyera. Popeza kuti thupi lonse lasanduka loyera, munthuyo ndi woyeretsedwa.
then the priest must examine him to see if the disease has covered all his body. If it has, then the priest must pronounce the person who has the disease as clean. If it has all turned white, then he is clean.
14 Koma pa tsiku limene zilonda zidzaoneka pa iye, munthuyo adzakhala wodetsedwa.
But if raw flesh appears on him, he will be unclean.
15 Wansembe aonetsetse zilondazo ndipo alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Zilondazo ndi zodetsedwa ndipo ili ndi khate.
The priest must look at the raw flesh and pronounce him unclean because the raw flesh is unclean. It is an infectious disease.
16 Koma zilondazo zikasinthika ndi kusanduka zoyera, munthuyo ayenera kupita kwa wansembe.
But if the raw flesh turns white again, then the person must go to the priest.
17 Wansembe amuonetsetse ndipo ngati zilondazo zasanduka zoyera, wansembe amutchule wodwalayo kuti ndi woyera ndipo adzakhala woyera ndithu.
The priest will examine him to see if the flesh has turned white. If it has then the priest will pronounce that person to be clean.
18 “Ngati pa khungu la munthu wodwalayo pali chithupsa chimene chinapola kale,
When a person has a boil on the skin and it has healed,
19 ndipo pamalo pamene panali chithupsacho pakatuluka chotupa choyera kapena banga loyera mofiirira, munthuyo ayenera kukadzionetsa kwa wansembe.
and in place of the boil there is white swelling or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it must be shown to the priest.
20 Wansembe aonetsetse bwino ndipo ngati chikuoneka kuti chazama, ndipo ubweya wa pamalopo wasanduka woyera, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Imeneyo ndi nthenda ya khate imene yatuluka mʼchithupsacho.
The priest will examine it to see if it appears deeper under the skin, and if the hair there has turned white. If so, then the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious disease, if it has developed in the place where the boil was.
21 Koma ngati wansembe waonetsetsa napeza kuti palibe ubweya woyera ndipo chithupsacho sichinazame, koma chazimirira, wansembeyo amuyike padera wodwalayo kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
But if the priest examines it and sees that there is no white hair in it, and that it is not under the skin but has faded, then the priest must isolate him for seven days.
22 Ngati nthendayo ikufalikira pa khungu, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Limeneli ndi khate.
If it spreads widely in the skin, then the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious disease.
23 Koma bangalo likakhala malo amodzi, wosafalikira, chimenecho ndi chipsera cha chithupsacho, ndipo wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi woyera.
But if the bright spot stays in its place and has not spread, then it is the scar of the boil, and the priest must pronounce him clean.
24 “Munthu akakhala ndi bala lamoto pa khungu lake, ndipo chilonda cha balalo chikasanduka banga loyera mofiirira kapena loyera,
When the skin has a burn and the raw flesh of the burn has become a reddish-white or white spot,
25 wansembe aonetsetse bangalo, ndipo ngati ubweya wa pa bangapo usanduka woyera, ndipo balalo lioneka kuti ndi lozama, limenelo ndi khate lomwe latuluka pa balalo. Wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Limenelo ndi khate la pa khungu.
then the priest will examine it to see if the hair in that spot has turned white, and if it appears to be deeper than the skin. If it has, then it is an infectious disease. It has broken out in the burn, and the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious disease.
26 Koma ngati wansembe waonetsetsa balalo ndipo palibe ubweya woyera, ndipo ngati balalo silinazame ndi kuti lazirala, wansembe amuyike padera wodwalayo kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
But if the priest examines it and finds that there is no white hair in the spot, and it is not under the skin but has faded, then the priest must isolate him for seven days.
27 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembe amuonenso wodwalayo, ndipo ngati bangalo lafalikira pa khungu, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Limenelo ndi khate.
Then the priest must examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread widely in the skin, then the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious disease.
28 Koma ngati bangalo likhala pa malo amodzi wosafalikira pa khungu, ndipo lazimirira, limenelo ndi thuza la bala lamoto, ndipo wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi woyera. Chimenecho ndi chipsera chamoto.
If the spot stays in its place and has not spread in the skin but has faded, then it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest must pronounce him clean, for it is nothing more than the scar of the burn.
29 “Mwamuna kapena mkazi akakhala ndi nthenda kumutu kapena ku chibwano,
If a man or woman has an infectious disease on the head or chin,
30 wansembe aonetsetse balalo ndipo likaoneka kuti lazama, ndipo ubweya wa pamalopo wasanduka wachikasu ndi wonyololoka, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa. Zimenezo ndi mfundu zonyerenyetsa, khate lakumutu kapena ku chibwano.
then the priest must examine the person for an infectious disease to see if it appears to be deeper than the skin, and if there is yellow, thin hair in it. If there is, then the priest must pronounce him unclean. It is an itch, an infectious disease on the head or the chin.
31 Koma wansembe akaonetsetsa mfundu zonyerenyetsazo, ndipo zikaoneka kuti sizinazame ndi kuti palibe ubweya wakuda, wansembe amuyike padera munthuyo kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
If the priest examines the itching disease and sees that it is not under the skin, and if there is no black hair in it, then the priest will isolate the person with the itching disease for seven days.
32 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembe aonetsetsenso mfundu zonyerenyetsazo, ndipo ngati sizinafalikire ndipo palibe ubweya wachikasu pamalopo ndiponso sizinazame,
On the seventh day the priest will examine the disease to see if it has spread. If there is no yellow hair, and if the disease appears to be only skin deep,
33 wodwalayo ametedwe, koma pamene pali mfunduyo pasametedwe. Wansembe amuyike padera munthuyo kwa masiku enanso asanu ndi awiri.
then he must be shaved, but the diseased area must not be shaved, and the priest must isolate the person with the itching disease for seven more days.
34 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembe aonetsetsenso mfundu zonyerenyetsazo ndipo ngati sizinafalikire pa khungu ndi kuti sizinazame, wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi woyera. Tsono achape zovala zake, ndipo adzakhala woyera.
On the seventh day the priest will examine the disease to see if it has stopped spreading in the skin. If it appears to be no deeper than the skin, then the priest must pronounce him clean. The person must wash his clothes, and then he will be clean.
35 Koma mfundu zonyerenyetsazo zikafalikira pa khungu, wansembe atalengeza kuti ndi woyera,
But if the itching disease has spread widely in the skin after the priest said he was clean,
36 wansembe amuonetsetsenso wodwalayo ndipo ngati mfunduzo zafalikira pa khungu, iye asalabadirenso zoyangʼana ngati ubweya uli wachikasu. Munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa.
then the priest must examine him again. If the disease has spread in the skin, the priest does not need to seek for yellow hair. The person is unclean.
37 Koma ngati wansembe waonetsetsa kuti mfunduzo sizinasinthe ndipo ubweya wakuda wamera pa mfundupo, ndiye kuti wodwalayo wachira. Tsono wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi woyeretsedwa.
But if in the priest's view the itching disease has stopped spreading and black hair has grown in the area, then the disease has healed. He is clean, and the priest must pronounce him clean.
38 “Mwamuna kapena mkazi akakhala ndi mawanga woyera pa khungu,
If a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,
39 wansembe aonetsetse mawangawo, ndipo ngati ali otuwa, ndiye kuti ndi mibuko chabe yotuluka pa khungu. Munthuyo ndi woyera.
then the priest must examine the person to see if the spots are a dull white, which is only a rash that has broken out in the skin. He is clean.
40 “Tsitsi la munthu likayoyoka kumutu ndiye kuti ndi dazi limenelo koma munthuyo ndi woyeretsedwa.
If a man's hair has fallen out of his head, he is bald, but he is clean.
41 Ngati tsitsi lake layoyoka chapamphumi ndiye kuti ndi dazi la pa chipumi limenelo koma munthuyo ndi woyera.
If his hair has fallen out of the front part of his head, and if his forehead is bald, he is clean.
42 Koma ngati pa dazi la pamutu kapena la pa chipumi pakhala chithupsa choyera mofiirira, ndiye kuti ndi khate limenelo lochokera mu dazi la pamutu lija kapena pa chipumi lija.
But if there is a reddish-white sore on his bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease that has broken out.
43 Tsono wansembe amuonetsetse wodwalayo ndipo ngati chithupsa cha pa dazi lapankhongo kapena pa dazi lapachipumicho ndi choyera mofiirira monga nthenda ya khate imaonekera,
Then the priest must examine him to see if the swelling of the diseased area on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white, like the appearance of an infectious disease in the skin.
44 ndiye kuti munthuyo ali ndi khate, motero ndi wodetsedwa. Wansembe alengeze kuti munthuyo ndi wodetsedwa chifukwa cha chithupsa cha pamutu pakepo.
If it is, then he has an infectious disease and he is unclean. The priest must surely pronounce him unclean because of his disease on his head.
45 “Munthu wa khate lotere avale sanza, tsitsi lake alilekerere, aphimbe mlomo wake wapamwamba ndipo azifuwula kuti, ‘Ndine wodetsedwa, ndine wodetsedwa!’
The person who has an infectious disease must wear torn clothes, his hair must hang loosely, and he must cover his face up to his nose and call out, 'Unclean, unclean.'
46 Munthu wodwalayo adzakhala wodetsedwa kwa nthawi yonse imene ali ndi nthendayo. Iye ayenera kumakhala payekha kunja kwa msasa.
All the days that he has the infectious disease he will be unclean. Because he is unclean with a disease that can spread, he must live alone. He must live outside the camp.
47 “Nsalu iliyonse ikakhala ndi nguwi,
A garment that is contaminated with mildew, whether it is a wool or linen garment,
48 kaya ndi chovala chopangidwa ndi nsalu yathonje kapena yaubweya, yoluka ndi thonje kapena ubweya, yachikopa kapena yopangidwa ndi chikopa,
or anything woven or knitted from wool or linen, or leather or anything made with leather—
49 ndipo ngati pamalo pamene pachita nguwiyo pali ndi maonekedwe obiriwira kapena ofiirira imeneyo ndi nguwi yoyipitsa chovala ndipo chovalacho chikaonetsedwe kwa wansembe.
if there is a greenish or reddish contamination in the garment, the leather, the woven or knitted material, or anything made of leather, then it is a mildew that spreads; it must be shown to the priest.
50 Wansembeyo ayionetsetse nguwiyo ndipo chovalacho achiyike padera kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
The priest must examine the item for mildew; he must isolate anything that has mildew for seven days.
51 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri ayionetsetsenso nguwiyo ndipo ngati nguwiyo yafalikira pa chovalacho, chathonje kapena chaubweya, kapena pa chikopacho, kaya ndi cha ntchito ya mtundu wanji, imeneyo ndi nguwi yoopsa ndipo chovalacho ndi chodetsedwa.
He must examine the mildew again on the seventh day. If it has spread in the garment or anything woven or knitted from wool or linen material, or leather or anything in which leather is used, then it is harmful mildew, and the item is unclean.
52 Wansembe atenthe chovala chathonje kapena chaubweya chija, ngakhalenso chinthu chachikopa chija popeza nguwiyo yachidetsa. Nguwiyo ndi yoopsa choncho chinthucho achitenthe.
He must burn the garment, or anything woven or knitted from wool or linen material, or leather or anything made with leather, anything in which the harmful mildew is found, for it can lead to disease. The item must be completely burned up.
53 “Koma ngati wansembe akayangʼanitsitsa nguwiyo apeza kuti sinafalikire pa chovalacho kapena pa chinthu chilichonse chachikopa,
If the priest examines the item and sees that the mildew has not spread in the garment or material woven or knitted from wool or linen, or leather goods,
54 iye alamulire kuti chinthu choyipitsidwacho achichape. Akatero achiyike padera kwa masiku enanso asanu ndi awiri.
then he will command them to wash the item in which the mildew was found, and he must isolate it for seven more days.
55 Chovalacho chitachapidwa, wansembe achionenso ndipo ngati nguwiyo sinasinthe maonekedwe ake, ngakhale kuti sinafalikire, chovalacho ndi chodetsedwa ndithu. Muchitenthe, ngakhale kuti nguwiyo ili kumbuyo kapena kumaso kwa chinthucho.
Then the priest will examine the item after the mildewed item was washed. If the mildew has not changed its color, even though it has not spread, it is unclean. You must burn the item, no matter where the mildew has contaminated it.
56 Koma ngati wansembe aonetsetsa nʼkupeza kuti nguwi ija yathimbirira pa chovala chija kapena pa chinthu chachikopa chija atachichapa, ndiye angʼambeko chinthucho pa banga la nguwiyo.
If the priest examines the item, and if the mildew has faded after it was washed, then he must tear out the contaminated part from the garment or from the leather, or from the woven or knitted material.
57 Koma ngati nguwiyo iwonekanso pa chovala chathonje kapena chaubweya ndiye kuti nguwiyo ikufalikira. Chilichonse chimene chili ndi nguwi chiyenera kutenthedwa.
If the mildew still appears in the garment, either in the woven or knitted material, or in anything made of leather, it is spreading. You must burn any item that has the mildew.
58 Chovala chathonje kapena chaubweya, ngakhale chinthu china chilichonse chopangidwa ndi chikopa, mukachichapa nguwi yake nʼkuchoka muchichapenso kawiri ndipo chidzakhala choyeretsedwa.”
The garment or anything woven or knitted from wool or linen material, or leather or anything made with leather—if you wash the item and the mildew is gone, then the item must be washed a second time, and it will be clean.
59 Amenewa ndiwo malamulo a nguwi yokhala pa chovala chaubweya kapena pa chovala chathonje, kapenanso pa chinthu chilichonse chopangidwa ndi chikopa kuti muzitha kulekanitsa choyeretsedwa ndi chodetsedwa.
This is the law about mildew in a garment of wool or linen, or anything woven or knitted from wool or linen material, or leather or anything made with leather, so that you may pronounce it clean or unclean.”
