Leviticus 14

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, This is the custom of a leprouse man,

2 “This is the law for the one afflicted with a skin disease on the day of his cleansing, when he is brought to the priest.

whanne he schal be clensid. He schal be brouyt to the preest,

3 The priest is to go outside the camp to examine him, and if the skin disease of the afflicted person has healed,

which preest schal go out of the castels, and whanne he schal fynde that the lepre is clensid,

4 the priest shall order that two live clean birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop be brought for the one to be cleansed.

he schal comaunde to the man which is clensid, that he offre for hym silf twei quyke sparewis, whiche it is leueful to ete, and a `tree of cedre, and vermylyoun, and isope.

5 Then the priest shall command that one of the birds be slaughtered over fresh water in a clay pot.

And the preest schal comaunde that oon of the sparewes be offrid in `a vessel of erthe,

6 And he is to take the live bird together with the cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop, and dip them into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over the fresh water.

on quyke watris; sotheli he schal dippe the tother sparewe quyk with the `tre of cedre, and with a reed threed and ysope, in the blood of the sparewe offrid,

7 Seven times he shall sprinkle the one to be cleansed of the skin disease. Then he shall pronounce him clean and release the live bird into the open field.

with which he schal sprenge seuensithis hym that schal be clensid, that he be purgid riytfuli; and he schal delyuere the quyk sparewe, that it fle in to the feeld.

8 The one being cleansed must wash his clothes, shave off all his hair, and bathe with water; then he will be ceremonially clean. Afterward, he may enter the camp, but he must remain outside his tent for seven days.

And whanne the man hath waische hise clothis, he schal schaue alle the heeris of the bodi, and he schal be waischun in watir, and he schal be clensid, and he schal entre in to the castels; so oneli that he dwelle without his tabernacle bi seuene daies;

9 On the seventh day he must shave off all his hair—his head, his beard, his eyebrows, and the rest of his hair. He must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and he will be clean.

and that in the seuenthe dai he schaue the heeris of the heed, and the beerd, and brewis, and the heeris of al the bodi. And whanne the clothis and bodi ben waischun,

10 On the eighth day he is to bring two unblemished male lambs, an unblemished ewe lamb a year old, a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with olive oil, and one log of olive oil.

eft in the eiyetithe dai he schal take twei lambren without wem, and a scheep of o yeer without wem, and thre dymes of wheete flour, in to sacrifice, which be spreynte with oile, and bi it silf a sextarie of oyle.

11 The priest who performs the cleansing shall present the one to be cleansed, together with these offerings, before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

And whanne the preest, that purgith the man, hath set hym and alle hise thingis bifor the Lord, in the dore of the tabernacle of witnessyng, he schal take a lomb,

12 Then the priest is to take one of the male lambs and present it as a guilt offering, along with the log of olive oil; and he must wave them as a wave offering before the LORD.

and schal offre it for trespas, and schal offre the sextarie of oyle; and whanne alle thingis ben offrid bifor the Lord,

13 Then he is to slaughter the lamb in the sanctuary area where the sin offering and burnt offering are slaughtered. Like the sin offering, the guilt offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

he schal offre the lomb, where the sacrifice for synne and the brent sacrifice is wont to be offrid, that is, in the hooli place; for as for synne so and for trespas the offryng perteyneth to the preest; it is hooli of the noumbre of hooli thingis.

14 The priest is to take some of the blood from the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

And the preest schal take of the blood of sacrifice which is offrid for trespas, and schal putte on the laste part of the riyt eere `of hym which is clensid, and on the thumbis of the riyt hond and foot.

15 Then the priest shall take some of the log of olive oil, pour it into his left palm,

And he schal putte of the sextarie of oyle in to his left hond,

16 dip his right forefinger into the oil in his left palm, and sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD.

and he schal dippe the riyt fyngur therynne, and schal sprynge seuensithis bifor the Lord.

17 And the priest is to put some of the oil remaining in his palm on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.

Sotheli he schal schede that that is residue of the oile in the left hond, on the laste part of the riyt eere `of hym which is clensid, and on the thombis of the riyt hond and foot, and on the blood which is sched for trespas,

18 The rest of the oil in his palm, the priest is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD.

and on the heed `of hym.

19 Then the priest is to sacrifice the sin offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness. After that, the priest shall slaughter the burnt offering

And the preest schal preye for hym bifor the Lord, and schal make sacrifice for synne; thanne he schal offre brent sacrifice,

20 and offer it on the altar, with the grain offering, to make atonement for him, and he will be clean.

and schal putte it in the auter with hise fletynge sacrifices, and the man schal be clensid riytfuli.

21 If, however, the person is poor and cannot afford these offerings, he is to take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make atonement for him, along with a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of olive oil,

That if he is pore, and his hoond may not fynde tho thingis that ben seid, he schal take for trespas a lomb to offryng, that the preest preie for him, and the tenthe part of wheete flour spreynt togidire with oile in to sacrifice, and a sextarie of oile,

22 and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whichever he can afford, one to be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

and twei turtlis, ethir twei `briddis of culueris, of whiche oon be for synne, and the tothir in to brent sacrifice;

23 On the eighth day he is to bring them for his cleansing to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD.

and he schal offre tho in the eiytthe dai of his clensyng to the preest, at the dore of tabernacle of witnessyng bifor the Lord.

24 The priest shall take the lamb for the guilt offering, along with the log of olive oil, and wave them as a wave offering before the LORD.

And the preest schal take the lomb for trespas, and the sextarie of oile, and schal reise togidere;

25 And after he slaughters the lamb for the guilt offering, the priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

and whanne the lomb is offrid, he schal putte of the blood therof on the laste part of the riyt eere `of hym that is clensid, and on the thumbis of his riyt hond and foot.

26 Then the priest is to pour some of the oil into his left palm

Sotheli the preest putte the part of oile in to his left hond,

27 and sprinkle with his right forefinger some of the oil in his left palm seven times before the LORD.

in which he schal dippe the fyngur of the riyt hond, and schal sprynge seuensithes ayens the Lord;

28 The priest shall also put some of the oil in his palm on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot—on the same places as the blood of the guilt offering.

and the preest schal touche the laste part of the riyt eere `of hym that is clensid, and the thombe of the riyt hond and foot, in the place of blood which is sched out for trespas.

29 The rest of the oil in his palm, the priest is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD.

Sotheli he schal putte the tother part of oile, which is in the left hond, on the `heed of the man clensid, that he plese the Lord for hym.

30 Then he must sacrifice the turtledoves or young pigeons, whichever he can afford,

And he schal offre a turtle, ethir a culuer brid,

31 one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, together with the grain offering. In this way the priest will make atonement before the LORD for the one to be cleansed.

oon for trespas, and the tothir in to brent sacrifice, with her fletynge offryngis.

32 This is the law for someone who has a skin disease and cannot afford the cost of his cleansing.”

This is the sacrifice of a leprouse man, that may not haue alle thingis in to the clensyng of hym silf.

33 Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

And the Lord spak to Moises and Aaron, and seide,

34 “When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your possession, and I put a contamination of mildew into a house in that land,

Whanne ye han entrid in to the lond of Canaan, which lond Y schal yyue to you in to possessioun, if the wounde of lepre is in the housis,

35 the owner of the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘Something like mildew has appeared in my house.’

he schal go, whos the hous is, `and schal telle to the preest, and schal seie, It semeth to me, that as a wound of lepre is in myn hous.

36 The priest must order that the house be cleared before he enters it to examine the mildew, so that nothing in the house will become unclean. After this, the priest shall go in to inspect the house.

And the preest schal comaunde, `that thei bere out of the hous alle thingis bifore that he entre in to it, `and me se where it be lepre, lest alle thingis that ben in the hows, be maad vnclene; and the preest schal entre aftirward, that he se the lepre of the hows.

37 He is to examine the house, and if the mildew on the walls consists of green or red depressions that appear to be beneath the surface of the wall,

And whanne he seeth in the wallis therof as litle valeis `foule bi palenesse, ethir bi reednesse, and lowere than the tother hiyere part,

38 the priest shall go outside the doorway of the house and close it up for seven days.

he schal go out at the dore of the hows, and anoon he schal close it bi seuene daies.

39 On the seventh day the priest is to return and inspect the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls,

And he schal turne ayen in the seuenthe day, and schal se it; if he fyndith that the lepre encreesside,

40 he must order that the contaminated stones be pulled out and thrown into an unclean place outside the city.

he schal comaunde that the stoonys be cast out, in whyche the lepre is, and that tho stonys be cast out of the citee in an vncleene place.

41 And he shall have the inside of the house scraped completely and the plaster that is scraped off dumped into an unclean place outside the city.

Sotheli he schal comaunde that thilke hows be rasid with ynne bi cumpas, and that the dust of the rasyng be spreynt without the citee, in an vnclene place,

42 So different stones must be obtained to replace the contaminated ones, as well as additional mortar to replaster the house.

and that othere stoonys be put ayen for these, that ben takun awey, and that the hows be daubid with othir morter.

43 If the mildew reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house has been scraped and replastered,

But if aftir that the stoonus ben takun awey, and the dust is borun out,

44 the priest must come and inspect it. If the mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean.

and othere erthe is daubid, the preest entrith, and seeth the lepre turned ayen, and the wallis spreynt with spottis, the lepre is stidfastly dwellynge, and the hows is vnclene;

45 It must be torn down with its stones, its timbers, and all its plaster, and taken outside the city to an unclean place.

which hows thei schulen destrye anoon, and thei schulen caste out of the citee, in an vnclene place, the stoonys therof, and the trees, and al the dust.

46 Anyone who enters the house during any of the days that it is closed up will be unclean until evening.

He that entrith in to the hous, whanne it is schit, schal be vnclene `til to euentid,

47 And anyone who sleeps in the house or eats in it must wash his clothes.

and he that slepith and etith ony thing therynne, schal waische hise clothis.

48 If, however, the priest comes and inspects it, and the mildew has not spread after the house has been replastered, he shall pronounce the house clean, because the mildew is gone.

That if the preest entrith, and seeth that the lepre encreesside not in the hows, aftir that it was daubid the secounde tyme, he schal clense it; for heelthe is yoldun.

49 He is to take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop to purify the house;

And in the clensyng therof he schal take twey sparewis, and `a tre of cedre, and `a reed threed, and isope.

50 and he shall slaughter one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.

And whanne o sparewe is offrid in a vessel of erthe, on quyk watris,

51 Then he shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn, and the live bird, dip them in the blood of the slaughtered bird and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

he schal take the `tre of cedre, and ysope, and reed threed, and the quyk sparewe, and he schal dippe alle thingis in the blood of the sparewe offrid, and in lyuynge watris;

52 And he shall cleanse the house with the bird’s blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the scarlet yarn.

and he schal sprynge the hows seuen sithis; and he schal clense it as wel in the blood of the sparewe as in lyuynge watris, and in the quyk sparewe, and in the `tre of cedre, and in ysope, and `reed threed.

53 Finally, he is to release the live bird into the open fields outside the city. In this way he will make atonement for the house, and it will be clean.

And whanne he hath left the sparewe to fle in to the feeld frely, he schal preye for the hows, and it schal be clensid riytfuli.

54 This is the law for any infectious skin disease, for a scaly outbreak,

This is the lawe of al lepre,

55 for mildew in clothing or in a house,

and of smytyng, of lepre of clothis, and of housis,

56 and for a swelling, rash, or spot,

of syngne of wounde, and of litle whelkis brekynge out, of spotte schynynge, and in colours chaungid in to dyuerse spices,

57 to determine when something is clean or unclean. This is the law regarding skin diseases and mildew.”

that it may be wist, what is cleene, ether uncleene.
