Leviticus 14
1 And the Lord said to Moses,
El Señor le dijo a Moisés,
2 This is the law of the leper on the day when he is made clean: he is to be taken to the priest;
“Estas son las normas relativas a los que han tenido una enfermedad de la piel cuando se declaran limpios habiendo sido llevados al sacerdote.
3 And the priest is to go outside the tent-circle; and if, after looking, the priest sees that the mark of the disease has gone from him,
El sacerdote debe salir del campamento e inspeccionar a la persona. Si la enfermedad de la piel se ha curado,
4 Then the priest is to give orders to take, for him who is to be made clean, two living clean birds and some cedar wood and red thread and hyssop.
el sacerdote hará que le traigan dos pájaros ceremoniales limpios, también algo de madera de cedro, hilo carmesí e hisopo, en nombre de la persona que se va a limpiar.
5 And the priest will give orders for one of the birds to be put to death in a vessel made of earth, over flowing water.
“El sacerdote ordenará que se mate a uno de los pájaros sobre una vasija de arcilla llena de agua fresca.
6 And he will take the living bird and the wood and the red thread and the hyssop and put them in the blood of the bird which was put to death over flowing water.
Tomarás el pájaro vivo junto con la madera de cedro, el hilo carmesí y el hisopo, y los mojará en la sangre del pájaro que fue matado sobre el agua fresca.
7 And shaking it seven times over the man who is to be made clean, he will say that he is clean and will let the living bird go free into the open country.
Usará la sangre para rociar siete veces a la persona que está siendo limpiada de la enfermedad de la piel. Luego el sacerdote los declarará limpios y dejará que el pájaro vivo se vaya volando.
8 And he who is to be made clean will have his clothing washed and his hair cut and have a bath, and he will be clean. And after that he will come back to the tent-circle; but he is to keep outside his tent for seven days.
“El que se limpia debe lavar su ropa, afeitarse todo el pelo y lavarse con agua; entonces se limpiará ceremonialmente. Después de eso pueden entrar en el campamento, pero deben permanecer fuera de su tienda durante siete días.
9 And on the seventh day he is to have all the hair cut off his head and his chin and over his eyes — all his hair is to be cut off — and he will have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and he will be clean.
El séptimo día se afeitarán todo el pelo: la cabeza, la barba, las cejas y el resto del cabello. Deben lavar su ropa y lavarse con agua, y estarán limpios.
10 And on the eighth day let him take two male lambs, without any marks on them, and one female lamb of the first year, without a mark, and three tenth parts of an ephah of the best meal, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.
“El octavo día traerán dos corderos machos y una hembra, todos de un año de edad y sin defectos; una ofrenda de grano que consiste en tres décimos de una efa de la mejor harina mezclada con aceite de oliva, y un ‘tronco’ de aceite de oliva.
11 And the priest who is making him clean will put the man who is being made clean, together with these things, before the door of the Tent of meeting.
El sacerdote que dirige la ceremonia presentará al Señor la persona a ser limpiada, junto con estas ofrendas, a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.
12 And the priest is to take one of the male lambs and give it as an offering for wrongdoing, and the log of oil, waving them for a wave offering before the Lord;
El sacerdote tomará uno de los corderos machos y lo presentará como ofrenda por la culpa, junto con el tronco de aceite de oliva; y lo agitará ante el Señor como ofrenda mecida.
13 And he is to put the male lamb to death in the place where they put to death the sin-offering and the burned offering, in the holy place; for as the sin-offering is the property of the priest, so is the offering for wrongdoing: it is most holy.
“Luego degollará el cordero cerca del santuario donde se degüella la ofrenda por el pecado y el holocausto. La ofrenda por el pecado y la ofrenda por la culpa pertenecen al sacerdote; es muy sagrada.
14 And let the priest take some of the blood of the offering for wrongdoing and put it on the point of the right ear of him who is to be made clean, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot;
El sacerdote pondrá parte de la sangre de la ofrenda por la culpa en el lóbulo de la oreja derecha, en el pulgar derecho y en el dedo gordo del pie derecho de la persona que se está limpiando.
15 And take some of the oil and put it in the hollow of his left hand;
El sacerdote echará un poco del tronco de aceite de oliva en su palma izquierda,
16 And let the priest put his right finger in the oil which is in his left hand, shaking it out with his finger seven times before the Lord;
mojará su dedo índice derecho en él, y con su dedo rociará un poco de aceite de oliva siete veces ante el Señor.
17 And of the rest of the oil which is in his hand, the priest will put some on the point of the right ear of the man who is to be made clean, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot, over the blood of the offering for wrongdoing;
El sacerdote usará entonces parte del resto del aceite de oliva que queda en su palma sobre la persona que se está limpiando, y lo pondrá sobre la sangre de la ofrenda de culpa. Esto estará en el lóbulo de su oreja derecha, en su pulgar derecho y en el dedo gordo de su pie derecho, sobre la sangre de la ofrenda de culpa.
18 And the rest of the oil in the priest's hand he will put on the head of him who is to be made clean; and so the priest will make him free from sin before the Lord.
Lo que quede del aceite de oliva en su palma, el sacerdote lo pondrá sobre la cabeza de la persona que se está limpiando y luego lo hará justo ante el Señor.
19 And the priest will give the sin-offering, and take away the sin of him who is to be made clean from his unclean condition; and after that he will put the burned offering to death.
El sacerdote sacrificará la ofrenda por el pecado para hacer a la persona correcta, de modo que ahora esté limpia de su impureza. Después de eso, el sacerdote matará el holocausto
20 And the priest is to have the burned offering and the meal offering burned on the altar; and the priest will take away his sin and he will be clean.
y lo ofrecerá en el altar, junto con la ofrenda de grano, para enderezarlos, y estarán limpios.
21 And if he is poor and not able to get so much, then he may take one male lamb as an offering for wrongdoing, to be waved to take away his sin, and one tenth part of an ephah of the best meal mixed with oil for a meal offering, and a log of oil;
“Pero los que son pobres y no pueden pagar estas ofrendas deben traer un cordero macho como ofrenda de culpa para ser agitado para hacerlos rectos, junto con una décima parte de la mejor harina mezclada con aceite de oliva para una ofrenda de grano, un tronco de aceite de oliva,
22 And two doves or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get; and one will be for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering.
y dos tórtolas o dos pichones de paloma, lo que puedan pagar. Una se usará como ofrenda por el pecado y la otra como holocausto.
23 And on the eighth day he will take them to the priest, to the door of the Tent of meeting before the Lord, so that he may be made clean.
“Al octavo día deben llevarlos al sacerdote a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión ante el Señor para que los limpie.
24 And the priest will take the lamb of the offering for wrongdoing and the oil, waving them for a wave offering before the Lord;
El sacerdote tomará el cordero para la ofrenda por la culpa, junto con el tronco de aceite de oliva, y los agitará como ofrenda mecida ante el Señor.
25 And he will put to death the lamb of the offering for wrongdoing and the priest will take some of the blood of the offering for wrongdoing and put it on the point of the right ear of him who is to be made clean, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot;
Después de matar el cordero para la ofrenda por la culpa, el sacerdote tomará un poco de la sangre de la ofrenda por la culpa y la pondrá en el lóbulo de la oreja derecha del que se está limpiando, en el pulgar derecho y en el dedo gordo del pie derecho.
26 And the priest will put out some of the oil in the hollow of his left hand,
“Entonces el sacerdote verterá un poco de aceite de oliva en su palma izquierda
27 Shaking out drops of oil with his right finger before the Lord seven times:
y con su dedo índice derecho, rociará un poco de aceite de su palma izquierda siete veces ante el Señor.
28 And the priest will put some of the oil which is in his hand on the point of the ear of the man who is to be made clean and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place where the blood of the offering for wrongdoing was put;
El sacerdote pondrá también un poco de aceite de oliva en su palma, en el lóbulo de la oreja derecha de la persona que se está limpiando, en el pulgar derecho y en el dedo gordo del pie derecho, en los mismos lugares que la sangre de la ofrenda de culpa.
29 And the rest of the oil which is in the priest's hand he will put on the head of him who is to be made clean, to take away his sin before the Lord.
Lo que quede del aceite de oliva en su palma, el sacerdote lo pondrá en la cabeza de la persona que se está limpiando y luego lo pondrá delante del Señor.
30 And he will make an offering of one of the doves or the young pigeons, such as he is able to get;
Luego deberán sacrificar una de las tórtolas o palomas jóvenes, según sus posibilidades,
31 And of these, he will give one for a sin-offering and one for a burned offering, with the meal offering; and the priest will take away the sin of him who is to be made clean before the Lord.
una como ofrenda por el pecado y la otra como holocausto, junto con la ofrenda de grano. Así es como el sacerdote hará a la persona correcta y limpia ante el Señor.
32 This is the law for the man who has the disease of the leper on him, and who is not able to get that which is necessary for making himself clean.
Estas son las normas para aquellos que tienen una enfermedad de la piel y no pueden permitirse las ofrendas habituales para hacer a la gente limpia”.
33 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
Entonces el Señor les dijo a Moisés y a Aarón:
34 When you have come into the land of Canaan which I will give you for your heritage, if I put the leper's disease on a house in the land of your heritage,
“Cuando lleguen a Canaán, la tierra que yo les doy, si pongo un poco de moho en una casa y la contamino,
35 Then let the owner of the house come and say to the priest, It seems to me that there is a sort of leper's disease in the house.
el dueño de la casa debe venir y decirle al sacerdote: ‘Parece que mi casa tiene moho’.
36 And the priest will give orders for everything to be taken out of the house, before he goes in to see the disease, so that the things in the house may not become unclean; and then the priest is to go in to see the house;
El sacerdote debe ordenar que se vacíe la casa antes de entrar a inspeccionar el moho, para que nada en la casa sea declarado impuro. Una vez hecho esto, el sacerdote debe entrar e inspeccionar la casa.
37 And if he sees that the walls of the house are marked with hollows of green and red, and if it seems to go deeper than the face of the wall;
Examinará la casa y verá si el moho de las paredes está hecho de hendiduras verdes o rojas que van bajo la superficie,
38 Then the priest will go out of the door of the house, and keep the house shut up for seven days:
el sacerdote saldrá a la puerta y sellará la casa durante siete días.
39 And the priest is to come again on the seventh day and have a look and see if the marks on the walls of the house are increased in size;
Al séptimo día el sacerdote volverá e inspeccionará la casa de nuevo. Si el moho se ha extendido en las paredes,
40 Then the priest will give orders to them to take out the stones in which the disease is seen, and put them out into an unclean place outside the town:
ordenará que las piedras afectadas se retiren y se eliminen en un área impura fuera de la ciudad.
41 And he will have the house rubbed all over inside, and the paste which is rubbed off will be put out into an unclean place outside the town:
Luego ordenará que todo el yeso del interior de la casa sea raspado y arrojado en una zona impura fuera de la ciudad.
42 And they will take other stones and put them in place of those stones, and he will take other paste and put it on the walls of the house.
Se deben usar diferentes piedras para reemplazar las que se han quitado, y se necesitará un nuevo yeso para volver a enlucir la casa.
43 And if the disease comes out again in the house after he has taken out the stones and after the walls have been rubbed and the new paste put on,
Si el moho vuelve y afecta de nuevo a la casa, incluso después de haber quitado las piedras y de haber raspado y vuelto a enlucir la casa,
44 Then the priest will come and see it; and if the disease in the house is increased in size, it is the leper's disease working out in the house: it is unclean.
el sacerdote debe venir a inspeccionarla. Si ve que el moho se ha extendido en la casa, es un moho dañino; la casa está sucia.
45 And the house will have to be pulled down, the stones of it and the wood and the paste; and everything is to be taken out to an unclean place outside the town.
Debe ser demolida, y todas sus piedras, maderas y yeso deben ser tomadas y arrojadas en un área impura fuera de la ciudad.
46 And, in addition, anyone who goes into the house at any time, while it is shut up, will be unclean till evening.
Cualquiera que entre en la casa durante cualquier tiempo que esté sellada será impuro hasta la noche.
47 And anyone who has been sleeping in the house will have to have his clothing washed; and anyone who takes food in that house will have to have his clothing washed.
Quien duerma o coma en la casa debe lavar su ropa.
48 And if the priest comes in, and sees that the disease is not increased after the new paste has been put on the house, then the priest will say that the house is clean, because the disease is gone.
“Sin embargo, si cuando el sacerdote venga a inspeccionarla y encuentra que el moho no ha reaparecido después de que la casa haya sido tapizada, declarará la casa limpia porque el moho ha desaparecido.
49 And in order to make the house clean, let him take two birds and cedar-wood and red thread and hyssop;
Traerá dos pájaros, madera de cedro, hilo carmesí e hisopo para limpiar la casa.
50 And put one of the birds to death in a vessel of earth over flowing water;
Matará a uno de los pájaros sobre una vasija de arcilla llena de agua fresca.
51 And take the cedar-wood and the hyssop and the red thread and the living bird and put them in the blood of the dead bird and in the flowing water, shaking it over the house seven times.
Sumergirá el pájaro vivo, la madera de cedro, el hilo carmesí y el hisopo en la sangre del pájaro muerto y en el agua fresca, y rociará la casa siete veces.
52 And he will make the house clean with the blood of the bird and the flowing water and with the living bird and with the cedar-wood and the hyssop and the red thread.
Limpiará la casa con la sangre del pájaro, el agua fresca, el pájaro vivo, la madera de cedro, el hisopo y el hilo carmesí.
53 But he will let the living bird go out of the town into the open country; so he will take away sin from the house and it will be clean.
Luego dejará que el pájaro vivo se vaya volando fuera de la ciudad. Así es como hará la casa bien, y estará limpia.
54 This is the law for all signs of the leper's disease and for skin diseases;
“Estas son las regulaciones para cualquier enfermedad infecciosa de la piel, para una infección de costra,
55 And for signs of disease in clothing, or in a house;
para el moho en la ropa y en una casa,
56 And for a growth or a bad place or a bright mark on the skin;
así como para una hinchazón, sarpullido o mancha.
57 To make clear when it is unclean and when it is clean: this is the law about the disease of the leper.
Se utilizan para decidir si algo está limpio o sucio. Estas son las normas relativas a las enfermedades de la piel y el moho”.
