Leviticus 13
1 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
El Señor le dijo a Moisés y a Aarón:
2 If a man has on his skin a growth or a mark or a white place, and it becomes the disease of a leper, let him be taken to Aaron the priest, or to one of the priests, his sons;
“Cualquiera que tenga una hinchazón, un sarpullido o una mancha en la piel que pueda ser una enfermedad infecciosa de la piel debe ser llevado a Aarón el sacerdote o a uno de sus descendientes.
3 And if, when the priest sees the mark on his skin, the hair on the place is turned white and the mark seems to go deeper than the skin, it is the mark of a leper: and the priest, after looking at him, will say that he is unclean.
El sacerdote inspeccionará lo que sea que esté en la piel. Si el pelo se ha vuelto blanco y si el problema parece ser más que algo en la superficie, es una enfermedad grave de la piel, y el sacerdote que lo inspeccione declarará a la persona impura.
4 But if the mark on his skin is white, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is not turned white, then the priest will keep him shut up for seven days;
“Pero si la mancha es sólo una decoloración blanca y no parece ser más que superficial, y si el pelo de la mancha no se ha vuelto blanco, el sacerdote pondrá a la persona en aislamiento durante siete días.
5 And the priest is to see him on the seventh day; and if, in his opinion, the place on his skin has not become worse and is not increased in size, then the priest will keep him shut up for seven days more:
Al séptimo día el sacerdote realizará otra inspección, y si descubre que la mancha no ha cambiado y no se ha extendido sobre la piel, el sacerdote debe poner a la persona en aislamiento durante otros siete días.
6 And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; and if the mark is less bright and is not increased on his skin, then let the priest say that he is clean: it is only a skin-mark, and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.
Al séptimo día después de esto el sacerdote lo inspeccionará de nuevo. Si la mancha se ha desvanecido y no se ha extendido sobre la piel, el sacerdote declarará a la persona limpia ya que era un sarpullido. Deben lavar su ropa y estarán limpios.
7 But if the size of the mark on his skin is increased after he has been seen by the priest, let him go to the priest again:
Sin embargo, si el sarpullido se extiende después de que la persona ha sido inspeccionada por el sacerdote y ha sido declarada limpia, la persona debe volver para ser inspeccionada de nuevo.
8 And if, after looking at him, he sees that the mark is increased in his skin, let the priest say that he is unclean; he is a leper.
Si el sacerdote descubre que el sarpullido se ha propagado, debe declarar a la persona impura porque es ciertamente una enfermedad de la piel.
9 When the disease of a leper is seen on a man, let him be taken to the priest;
“Cualquier persona que desarrolle una enfermedad infecciosa de la piel debe ser llevada al sacerdote.
10 And if the priest sees that there is a white growth on the skin, and the hair is turned white, and there is diseased flesh in the growth,
El sacerdote los inspeccionará, y si hay una hinchazón blanca en la piel y el pelo se ha vuelto blanco, y hay una herida abierta en la hinchazón,
11 It is an old disease in the skin of his flesh, and the priest will say that he is unclean; he will not have to be shut up, for he is clearly unclean.
es una enfermedad grave de la piel y el sacerdote debe declararlos inmundos. No necesita poner a la persona en aislamiento porque sea impura.
12 And if the disease comes out all over his skin, from his head to his feet, as far as the priest is able to see,
“Sin embargo, si la enfermedad de la piel afecta a toda su piel de manera que cubre su piel de la cabeza a los pies, en todos los lugares que el sacerdote pueda ver,
13 And if the priest sees that all his flesh is covered with the leper's disease, the priest will say that he is clean: it is all turned white, he is clean.
el sacerdote los inspeccionará, y si la enfermedad ha cubierto todo su cuerpo, declarará a la persona limpia. Como todo se ha vuelto blanco, están limpios.
14 But whenever diseased flesh is seen on him, he will be unclean.
Pero si al inspeccionar a alguien se encuentra una herida abierta, serán inmundos.
15 And when the priest sees the diseased flesh he will say that he is unclean; the diseased flesh is unclean, he is a leper.
Cuando el sacerdote descubre una herida abierta, debe declarar a la persona impura. La herida abierta es impura; es una enfermedad infecciosa de la piel.
16 Or if the diseased flesh is turned again and changed to white then he is to come to the priest,
Pero si la herida abierta se cura y se vuelve blanca, la persona debe volver al sacerdote.
17 And the priest will see him: and if the place is turned white, then the priest will say that he is free from the disease.
El sacerdote los inspeccionará de nuevo, y si la herida se ha vuelto blanca, el sacerdote debe declarar a la persona limpia; entonces están limpios.
18 And if a bad place has come out on the skin and is well again,
“Cuando un forúnculo aparece en la piel de una persona y luego se cura,
19 And on the same place there is a white growth of a bright mark, red and white, then let the priest see it;
y en su lugar aparece una hinchazón blanca o una mancha blanca-rojiza, debe mostrarse al sacerdote.
20 And after looking at it, if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is turned white, then the priest will say that the man is unclean: it is the leper's disease, it has come out in the bad place.
El sacerdote lo inspeccionará, y si parece ser más que algo en la superficie, y si el pelo allí se ha vuelto blanco, el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Es una enfermedad grave de la piel que ha infectado el furúnculo.
21 But if, after looking at it, he sees that there are no white hairs on it, and it is not deeper than the skin, and it is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:
Sin embargo, si cuando el sacerdote lo inspeccione, no tiene pelo blanco en él y no parece ser más que superficial, y se ha desvanecido, el sacerdote deberá poner a la persona en aislamiento durante siete días.
22 And if it is increasing on the skin, the priest will say that he is unclean: it is a disease.
Si entonces la mancha se ha extendido más en la piel, el sacerdote las declarará impuras; es una enfermedad.
23 But if the bright mark keeps in the same place and gets no greater, it is the mark of the old wound, and the priest will say that he is clean.
Pero si la mancha permanece igual y no se extiende, es sólo la cicatriz del furúnculo, y el sacerdote las declarará limpias.
24 Or if there is a burn on the skin of the flesh, and if the diseased flesh in the burn becomes a bright place, red and white or white,
“Si alguien tiene una quemadura en la piel y donde está abierta se convierte en una mancha blanca o rojiza,
25 The priest is to see it: and if the hair on the bright place is turned white and it seems to go deeper than the skin, he is a leper: it has come out in the burn, and the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.
el sacerdote debe revisarla. Si el vello que crecesobre la mancha se ha vuelto blanco y la mancha parece ser más profunda, es una enfermedad grave de la piel que ha infectado la quemadura, y el sacerdote que la inspeccione declarará a la persona impura. Es una enfermedad infecciosa de la piel.
26 But if, after looking at it, the priest sees that there is no white hair on the bright place, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:
Sin embargo, si cuando el sacerdote la inspeccione, no tiene pelo blanco en ella y no parece ser más que superficial, y se ha desvanecido, el sacerdote deberá poner a la persona en aislamiento durante siete días.
27 And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; if it is increased in the skin, then the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.
Al séptimo día el sacerdote examinará a la persona de nuevo. Si entonces la mancha se ha extendido más en la piel, el sacerdote la declarará impura; es una enfermedad grave de la piel.
28 And if the bright place keeps the same size and gets no greater on the skin, but is less bright, it is the effect of the burn, and the priest will say that he is clean: it is the mark of the burn.
Pero si la mancha permanece igual y no se ha extendido sobre la piel, sino que se ha desvanecido, es la hinchazón de la quemadura, y el sacerdote los declarará limpios porque es sólo la cicatriz de la quemadura.
29 And when a man or a woman has a disease on the head, or in the hair of the chin,
“Si alguien, hombre o mujer, tiene una llaga en la cabeza o en el mentón,
30 Then the priest is to see the diseased place: and if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and if there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest will say that he is unclean: he has the mark of the leper's disease on his head or in the hair of his chin.
el sacerdote la inspeccionará, y si parece ser más que superficial y el pelo en ella se ha vuelto pálido y fino, el sacerdote debe declararlos inmundos; es una infección que produce costras, una enfermedad grave de la cabeza o del mentón.
31 And after looking at the diseased place, if it does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest will have him shut up for seven days:
Sin embargo, si el sacerdote inspecciona la infección de la costra y no parece ser más que superficial y no tiene vello pálido, el sacerdote debe poner a la persona en aislamiento durante siete días.
32 And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not seem to go deeper than the skin,
El séptimo día el sacerdote inspeccionará a la persona de nuevo y si la infección de la costra no se ha extendido y no hay pelo pálido en ella, y no parece ser más que superficial,
33 Then his hair is to be cut off, but not on the diseased place, and he is to be shut up for seven days more:
entonces la persona debe afeitarse excepto en la zona escamosa. El sacerdote debe poner a la persona en aislamiento por otros siete días.
34 And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, the priest will say that he is clean: and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.
Al séptimo día el sacerdote inspeccionará la infección de la costra, y si no se ha extendido en la piel y no parece ser más que superficial, el sacerdote debe declarar a la persona limpia. Deben lavar su ropa y estarán limpios.
35 But if the disease in his skin becomes worse after he has been made clean,
Sin embargo, si la infección de la costra se ha propagado en la piel después de haber sido declarada limpia,
36 Then the priest is to see him: and if the mark is increased, the priest, without looking for the yellow hair, will say that he is unclean.
el sacerdote debe inspeccionarlos, y si la infección de la costra se ha propagado efectivamente en la piel, el sacerdote no necesita comprobar si hay pelo pálido; la persona está impura.
37 But if, in his opinion, the growth is stopped, and black hair has come up on it, the disease has gone; he is clean and the priest will say that he is clean.
Pero si el sacerdote ve que la infección de la costra no ha cambiado, y le ha crecido pelo negro, entonces se ha curado. La persona está limpia, y el sacerdote debe declararlo.
38 And if a man or a woman has bright marks on the skin of their flesh, that is, bright white marks,
Si alguien, hombre o mujer, tiene manchas blancas en la piel,
39 Then the priest is to see them: and if the white marks on their skin are not very bright, it is a skin disease which has come out on the skin; he is clean.
el sacerdote las inspeccionará, y si las manchas aparecen de un blanco apagado, es sólo un sarpullido que se ha desarrollado en la piel; la persona está limpia.
40 And if a man's hair has come out and he has no hair, still he is clean.
“Si un hombre pierde el pelo y se queda calvo, sigue estando limpio.
41 And if the hair has gone from the front part of his head, so that he has no hair there, still he is clean.
Si tiene un retroceso del cabello y se queda calvo en la frente, sigue estando limpio.
42 But if, on his head or on his brow, where he has no hair, there is a red and white place, it is the disease of the leper coming out on his head or on his brow.
Pero si aparece una llaga rojiblanca en su cabeza o frente calva, es una enfermedad infecciosa que se está desarrollando.
43 Then if the priest sees that the growth of the disease has become red and white on his head or on his brow where there is no hair, like the mark in the skin of a leper;
El sacerdote debe inspeccionarlo, y si la hinchazón de la llaga en su calva o frente se ve rojiblanca como una enfermedad de la piel,
44 He is a leper and unclean; the priest is to say that he is most certainly unclean: the disease is in his head.
entonces tiene una enfermedad infecciosa; está sucio. El sacerdote debe declararlo impuro por la infección en su cabeza.
45 And the leper who has the disease on him is to go about with signs of grief, with his hair loose and his mouth covered, crying, Unclean, unclean.
“Cualquiera que tenga tales enfermedades debe usar desgarrada y dejar que su cabello permanezca despeinado. Debe cubrirse la cara y gritar: ‘¡Inmundo, inmundo!’
46 While the disease is on him, he will be unclean. He is unclean: let him keep by himself, living outside the tent-circle.
Permanecen inmundos mientras dure la infección. Tienen que vivir solos en algún lugar fuera del campamento.
47 And any clothing of wool or of linen in which is the mark of the disease;
“Las siguientes reglamentaciones se refieren a cualquier material que se vea afectado por el moho, como la ropa de lana o lino,
48 If it is in the threads of the linen or of the wool, or in leather, or in anything made of skin;
cualquier cosa tejida o de punto hecha de lino o lana, o cualquier cosa hecha de cuero:
49 If there are red or green marks on the clothing, or on the leather, or in the threads of the cloth, or in anything made of skin, it is the leper's disease: let the priest see it.
Si la mancha es verde o roja en el material, ya sea cuero, tejido o tejido de punto o algún otro artículo de cuero, entonces está infectado con moho y debe ser mostrado al sacerdote.
50 And after it has been seen by the priest, the thing which is so marked is to be shut up for seven days:
El sacerdote debe inspeccionar el moho y poner el artículo en aislamiento durante siete días.
51 And he is to see the mark on the seventh day; if the mark is increased in the clothing, or in the threads of the material, or in the leather, whatever the leather is used for, it is the disease biting into it: it is unclean.
Al séptimo día el sacerdote deberá inspeccionarlo de nuevo, y si la mancha de moho se ha extendido en el material, ya sea cuero, tejido o tejido de punto o algún otro artículo de cuero, entonces es un moho dañino; el artículo está sucio, sea cual sea el uso que se le dé.
52 And the clothing, or the wool or linen material, or anything of leather in which is the disease, is to be burned: for the disease is biting into it; let it be burned in the fire.
El sacerdote debe quemarlo, ya sea que el artículo afectado sea de lana, lino o cuero. Debido a que el moho es dañino, el artículo debe ser quemado.
53 And if the priest sees that the mark is not increased in the clothing or in any part of the material or in the leather,
Sin embargo, si cuando el sacerdote lo inspeccione de nuevo, el moho no se ha extendido,
54 Then the priest will give orders for the thing on which the mark is, to be washed, and to be shut up for seven days more:
el sacerdote ordenará que el artículo afectado se lave y se ponga en aislamiento durante otros siete días.
55 And if, after the mark has been washed, the priest sees that the colour of it is not changed and it is not increased, it is to be burned in the fire: the disease is working in it, though the damage may be inside or outside.
Una vez lavado, el sacerdote debe inspeccionarlo de nuevo, y si el objeto con el molde no ha cambiado su aspecto, está sucio. Aunque el moho no se haya extendido, debe quemar el artículo, tanto si el daño del moho está en el interior como en el exterior.
56 And if the priest sees that the mark is less bright after the washing, then let him have it cut out of the clothing or the leather or from the threads of the material:
Si el sacerdote lo inspecciona y la mancha de moho se ha desvanecido después de lavarlo, debe cortar la parte afectada el material, ya sea cuero, tejido o tejido de punto.
57 And if the mark is still seen in the clothing or in the threads of the material or in the leather, it is the disease coming out: the thing in which the disease is will have to be burned with fire.
Sin embargo, si el moho regresa, entonces se está extendiendo. En ese caso debe quemar la parte afectada.
58 And the material of the clothing, or anything of skin, which has been washed, if the mark has gone out of it, let it be washed a second time and it will be clean.
Si el moho desaparece después de lavarlo, entonces hay que lavarlo de nuevo, y estará limpio.
59 This is the law about the leper's disease in the thread of wool or linen material, in clothing or in anything of skin, saying how it is to be judged clean or unclean.
“Estas son las normas sobre lo que hay que hacer cuando el moho contamina la lana o el lino, ya sea tejido o tejido de punto, o cualquier artículo de cuero, para declararlo limpio o sucio”.
