Leviticus 13
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
2 The man in whose skin or flesh shalt arise a different colour or a blister, or as it were something shining, that is, the stroke of the leprosy, shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or any one of his sons.
“Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe angĩgĩa na handũ haimbu, kana mũtũnda, kana handũ hakaragacũku ngoothi-inĩ yake, harĩa hangĩtuĩka mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya atwarwo kũrĩ Harũni, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, kana kũrĩ ũmwe wa ariũ ake ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
3 And if he see the leprosy in his skin, and the hair turned white, and the place where the leprosy appears lower than the skin and the rest of the flesh: it is the stroke of the leprosy, and upon his judgment he shall be separated.
Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai arore kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ ngoothi-inĩ yake, na angĩkorwo njuĩrĩ ya handũ hau harũaru nĩĩgarũrũkĩte ĩkerũha, na kĩronda kĩu kĩonwo kĩrikĩire thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ gũkĩra harĩa ngoothi yakinya-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio. Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai aarĩkia kũmũrora, nĩagacooka atue atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu.
4 But if there be a shining whiteness in the skin, and not lower than the other flesh, and the hair be of the former colour, the priest shall shut him up seven days.
Angĩkorwo kĩmeni kĩu arĩ nakĩo ngoothi-inĩ yake nĩkĩerũhĩte na gĩtirikĩire ngoothi-inĩ, nayo njuĩrĩ yaho ndĩerũhĩte-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaiga mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.
5 And the seventh day he shall look on him: and if the leprosy be grown no farther, and hath not spread itself in the skin, he shall shut him up again other seven days.
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora na angĩkoona atĩ kĩronda gĩtigarũrũkĩte na gĩtithegeete-rĩ, nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.
6 And on the seventh day, he shall look on him: if the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall be clean.
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩakamũrora o rĩngĩ, na angĩkorwo kĩronda kĩu nĩkĩrathira na gĩtithegeete ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu; ĩyo no mĩtũnda. Mũndũ ũcio no nginya athambie nguo ciake, nake nĩagathera, athirwo nĩ thaahu.
7 But if the leprosy grow again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him,
No mũtũnda ũcio ũngĩthegea ngoothi-inĩ yake thuutha wa kwĩonania harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩguo atuĩke ndarĩ na thaahu, no nginya acooke kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai rĩngĩ.
8 And shall be condemned of uncleanness.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na angĩkorwo mũtũnda ũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ, nĩakamũtua atĩ arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũrĩa ũngĩgwatanio.
9 If the stroke of the leprosy be in a man, he shall be brought to the priest,
“Rĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe angĩgĩa na mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya atwarwo harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
10 And he shall view him. And when there shall be a white colour in the skin, and it shall have changed the look of the hair, and the living flesh itself shall appear:
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora, na hangĩkorwo harĩ na handũ haimbu hakeerũha ngoothi-inĩ hagatũma njuĩrĩ yerũhe, na angĩkorwo handũ hau haimbu nĩhatũrĩkĩte hakagĩa kĩronda-rĩ,
11 It shall be judged an inveterate leprosy, and grown into the skin. The priest therefore shall declare him unclean, and shall not shut him up, because he is evidently unclean.
ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũtangĩhona, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Ndakamũiga handũ mwanya, tondũ mũndũ ũcio nĩarĩkĩtie kũgĩa na thaahu.
12 But if the leprosy spring out running about in the skin, and cover all the skin from the head to the feet, whatsoever falleth under the sight of the eyes,
“No rĩrĩ, mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩhunja ngoothi-inĩ yake yothe, na harĩa hothe mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩhota kuona oone atĩ mũrimũ ũcio ũiyũrĩte ngoothi-inĩ ya mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru kuuma mũtwe nginya magũrũ-rĩ,
13 The priest shall view him, and shall judge that the leprosy which he has is very clean: because it is all turned into whiteness, and therefore the man shall be clean.
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na aakorwo mũrimũ ũcio nĩ ũiyũrĩte mwĩrĩ wake wothe, nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu. Kuona atĩ nĩerũhĩte kũndũ guothe-rĩ, ndarĩ na thaahu.
14 But when the live flesh shall appear in him,
No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũndũ ũcio angĩonwo arĩ na ironda-rĩ, nĩagatuĩka arĩ na thaahu.
15 Then by the judgment of the priest he shall be defiled, and shall be reckoned among the unclean: for live flesh, if it be spotted with leprosy, is unclean.
Rĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩona kĩronda-rĩ, nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu; mũndũ ũcio arĩ na mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio.
16 And if again it be turned into whiteness, and cover all the man,
No kĩronda kĩu kĩngĩgarũrũka kĩerũhe, no nginya mũndũ ũcio athiĩ harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
17 The priest shall view him, and shall judge him to be clean.
Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na aakorwo ironda nĩcierũhĩte-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru ndarĩ na thaahu, nake nĩagatuĩka ndarĩ na thaahu.
18 When also there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has been healed,
“Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩgĩa na ihũha ngoothi-inĩ yake na rĩcooke rĩhone,
19 And in the place of the ulcer, there appeareth a white scar, or somewhat red, the man shall be brought to the priest:
naho hau ihũha rĩraarĩ haimbe na herũhe, kana hagĩe na kameni gatune-rĩ, no nginya athiĩ akeyonanie kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
20 And when he shall see the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hair turned white, he shall declare him unclean, for the plague of leprosy is broken out in the ulcer.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora handũ hau, na hangĩoneka nĩ harikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, na njuĩrĩ ciaho ikerũha, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio ũtuthũkĩte harĩa ihũha rĩu rĩraarĩ.
21 But if the hair be of the former colour, and the scar somewhat obscure, and be not lower than the flesh that is near it, he shall shut him up seven days.
No, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora handũ hau one hatirĩ na njuĩrĩ njerũ thĩinĩ waho, na hatirikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, na nĩhahohete-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja.
22 And if it spread, he shall judge him to have the leprosy:
Kũngĩkorwo kĩronda kĩa ihũha rĩu nĩkĩrathegea ngoothi-inĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio.
23 But if it stay in its place, it is but the scar of an ulcer, and the man shall be clean.
No handũ hau hangĩkorwo hatigarũrũkĩte na hatithegeete, kĩu no kĩrema kĩa ihũha, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.
24 The flesh also and skin that hath been burnt, and after it is healed hath a white or a red scar,
“Mũndũ angĩgĩa na ihĩa ngoothi-inĩ yake, narĩo ihĩa rĩu rĩgĩe na kĩronda gĩtunĩhe kana kĩerũhe-rĩ,
25 The priest shall view it, and if he see it turned white, and the place thereof is lower than the other skin: he shall declare him unclean, because the evil of leprosy is broken out in the scar.
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora handũ hau, na angĩkorwo njuĩrĩ ciaho nĩcierũhĩte, na hakorwo hakĩoneka harikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio ũtũrĩkĩire ihĩa-inĩ rĩu. Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio.
26 But if the colour of the hair be not changed, nor the blemish lower than the other flesh, and the appearance of the leprosy be somewhat obscure, he shall shut him up seven days,
No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩkaarora one atĩ hatirĩ na njuĩrĩ njerũ kĩrema-inĩ kĩu na ti harikĩru gũkĩra ngoothi yake na nĩhahohete-rĩ, thuutha ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.
27 And on the seventh day he shall view him: if the leprosy be grown farther in the skin, he shall declare him unclean.
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora rĩngĩ, naguo mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩkorwo nĩũrathegea ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio.
28 But if the whiteness stay in its place, and be not very clear, it is the sore of a burning, and therefore he shall be cleansed, because it is only the scar of a burning.
No handũ hau hangĩkorwo hatigarũrũkĩte, na hatithegeete ngoothi-inĩ, no nĩhahohete, ũcio nĩ ũimbu wa ihĩa rĩu, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu; kĩu no kĩrema kĩa ihĩa.
29 If the leprosy break out in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the Priest shall see them,
“Mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩkorwo na kĩronda mũtwe kana kĩreru-rĩ,
30 And if the place be lower than the other flesh, and the hair yellow, and thinner than usual: he shall declare them unclean, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard;
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakarora kĩronda kĩu, na kĩngĩoneka kĩrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, nayo njuĩrĩ yaho ĩkorwo nĩ ya rangi wa ngoikoni, na ĩkorwo ĩrĩ njeke, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ ũhere, nĩ mũrimũ wa mangũ ma mũtwe kana ma kĩreru.
31 But if he perceive the place of the spot is equal with the flesh that is near it, and the hair black: he shall shut him up seven days,
No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩronda kĩa mũthemba ũcio, na gĩkorwo ti kĩrikĩru gũkĩra ngoothi, na hatirĩ njuĩrĩ njirũ thĩinĩ wakĩo, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaiga mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.
32 And on the seventh day he shall look upon it. If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora kĩronda kĩu rĩngĩ na angĩkorwo ũhere ũcio ndũthegeete na hatirĩ njuĩrĩ cia rangi wa ngoikoni, na gĩtikuoneka kĩrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ,
33 The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot, and he shall be shut up other seven days:
no nginya mũndũ ũcio enjwo tiga o harĩa harũaru, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.
34 If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him, and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora ũhere ũcio o rĩngĩ, na angĩkorwo ndũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ na ndũkuoneka ũrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu. No no nginya athambie nguo ciake, na nĩagatuĩka ndarĩ na thaahu.
35 But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin,
No, ũhere ũcio, ũngĩthegea ngoothi-inĩ thuutha wa mũndũ ũcio gũtuuo atĩ ndarĩ na thaahu-rĩ,
36 He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently unclean.
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora na angĩkorwo ũhere ũcio nĩũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio ndakabatario nĩkũrora njuĩrĩ cia rangi wa ngoikoni; mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu.
37 But if the spot be stayed, and the hair be black, let him know that the man is healed, and let him confidently pronounce him clean.
No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩkoona atĩ hatirĩ na ũgarũrũku na nĩhamerete njuĩrĩ njirũ, ũhere ũcio nĩũhonete. Mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu, nake Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũtua ndarĩ na thaahu.
38 If a whiteness appear in the skin of a man or a woman,
“Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩgĩa na tũmeni twerũ ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ,
39 The priest shall view them. If he find that a darkish whiteness shineth in the skin, let him know that it is not the leprosy, but a white blemish, and that the man is clean.
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatũrora, na tuo tũngĩkorwo ti twerũ mũno-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũtũnda ũtangĩrwaria mũndũ ũtuthũkĩte ngoothi-inĩ; mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.
40 The man whose hair falleth off from his head, he is bald and clean:
“Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ angĩmunyũka njuĩrĩ na agĩe na kĩhara-rĩ, ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.
41 And if the hair fall from his forehead, he is bald before and clean.
Angĩkorwo amunyũkĩte njuĩrĩ ĩrutĩtie na thiithi akagĩa kĩhara kĩa na mbere, ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.
42 But if in the bald head or in the bald forehead there be risen a white or reddish colour,
No angĩkorwo arĩ na kĩronda gĩtune kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ wake-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio ũratuthũka kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ wake.
43 And the priest perceive this, he shall condemn him undoubtedly of leprosy which is risen in the bald part.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora, na angĩkorwo kĩronda kĩu kĩimbĩte kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ nĩ gĩtune gĩkahaana ta mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ,
44 Now whosoever shall be defiled with the leprosy, and is separated by the judgment of the priest,
mũndũ ũcio nĩ mũrũaru na arĩ na thaahu. Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũtua arĩ na thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ mũtwe wake.
45 Shall have his clothes hanging loose, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth, and he shall cry out that he is defiled and unclean.
“Mũndũ ũrĩ na mũrimũ ta ũcio ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya ehumbe nguo ndarũku, na arekererie njuĩrĩ yake, na ahumbĩre kanua gake, athiĩ akĩanagĩrĩra akiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndĩ na thaahu! Ndĩ na thaahu!’
46 All the time that he is a leper and unclean, he shall dwell alone without the camp.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũndũ ũcio arĩ na mũrimũ ũcio, arĩkoragwo arĩ na thaahu. No nginya atũũrage wiki, na no nginya atũũrage nja ya kambĩ.
47 A woollen or linen garment that shall have the leprosy
“Nguo o na ĩrĩkũ ĩngĩguma, ĩrĩ ya guoya wa ngʼondu kana ya gatani,
48 In the warp, and the woof, or a skin. or whatsoever is made of a skin,
kana ya taama o wothe ũtumĩtwo na ndigi njogothe kana taama wa gatani, kana guoya wa ngʼondu, kana rũũa o ruothe, kana kĩndũ o gĩothe gĩthondeketwo na rũũa-rĩ,
49 If it be infected with a white or red spot, it shall be accounted the leprosy, and shall be shewn to the priest.
na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio ũrĩ nguo-inĩ, kana rũũa-inĩ, kana taama-inĩ wa ndigi njogothe, kana taama-inĩ o wothe mũtume, kana kĩndũ-inĩ o gĩothe gĩtumĩtwo na rũũa-rĩ, ũgumu ũcio ũngĩkorwo na rangi ta wa nyeki nduru kana mũtune, ũcio nĩ ũgumu ũrathegea, na no nginya wonio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
50 And he shall look upon it and shall shut it up seven days:
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakarora ũgumu ũcio, na aige kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na ũgumu handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.
51 And on the seventh day when he looketh on it again, if he find that it if grown, it is a Axed leprosy: he shall judge the garment unclean, and every thing wherein it shall be found:
Mũthenya wa mũgwanja nĩakarora kĩndũ kĩu, na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio nĩũthegeete nguo-inĩ, kana ndigi-inĩ njogothe, kana taama-inĩ mũtume, kana rũũa-inĩ, rũrĩ rwa kũrutĩrwo wĩra o na ũrĩkũ, ũcio nĩ ũgumu wa kwananga; kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu.
52 And therefore it shall be burnt with fire.
No nginya acine nguo ĩyo, kana ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama ũcio mũtume na guoya wa ngʼondu kana gatani, kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ gĩothe kĩa rũũa rũrĩa rũgwatie ũgumu ũcio, nĩ ũndũ ũgumu ũcio nĩ wa kwananga; kĩndũ kĩu no nginya gĩcinwo.
53 But if he see that it is not grown,
“No rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩndũ kĩu, ũgumu ũcio ũkorwo ndũthegeete nguo-inĩ ĩyo, kana ndigi-inĩ icio njogothe kana taama-inĩ ũcio mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa-rĩ,
54 He shall give orders, and they shall wash that part wherein the leprosy is, and he shall shut it up other seven days.
nĩagaathana kĩndũ kĩu kĩgwatĩtio ũgumu gĩthambio. Ningĩ nĩagakĩiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.
55 And when he shall see that the former colour is not returned, nor yet the leprosy spread, he shall judge it unclean, and shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has taken hold of the outside of the garment, or through the whole.
Thuutha wa kĩndũ kĩu kĩgwatie ũgumu gũthambio-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagakĩrora, na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio ndũrĩ ũndũ ũgarũrũkĩte, o na gũtuĩka ndũthegeete-rĩ, kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu. Nĩgĩcinwo na mwaki, o na aakorwo ũgumu ũnyiitĩte mwena ũmwe kana ũrĩa ũngĩ.
56 But if the place of the leprosy be somewhat dark, after the garment is washed, he shall tear it off, and divide it from that which is sound.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩndũ kĩu na akore ũgumu ũcio ũnyihanyiihĩte thuutha wa kĩndũ kĩu gũthambio-rĩ, nĩagatembũra nguo ĩyo eherie hau he na ũgumu kuuma nguo-inĩ ĩyo, kana rũũa-inĩ, kana ndigi-inĩ icio njogothe, kana taama-inĩ ũcio mũtume.
57 And if after this there appear in those places that before were without spot, a flying and wandering leprosy: it must be burnt with fire.
No ũgumu ũcio ũngĩcooka woneke nguo-inĩ, kana harĩ ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama ũcio mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa, ũgumu ũcio nĩgũthegea ũrathegea, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ na ũgumu ũcio no nginya gĩcinwo na mwaki.
58 If it cease, he shall wash with water the parts that are pure, the second time, and they shall be clean.
Nguo ĩyo, kana ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa kĩrĩa gĩthambĩtio gĩkaniinwo ũgumu ũcio no nginya gĩthambio rĩngĩ, na nĩ gĩgaathirwo nĩ thaahu.”
59 This is the law touching the leprosy of any woollen or linen garment, either in the warp or woof, or any thing of skins, how it ought to be cleansed, or pronounced unclean.
Macio nĩmo mawatho marĩa makoniĩ indo inyiitĩtwo nĩ ũgumu, irĩ cia guoya wa ngʼondu, kana taama wa gatani, kana ndigi njogothe, kana taama mũtume, kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩa rũũa, nĩmo mawatho ma gũtua kana indo icio irĩ na thaahu kana itirĩ na thaahu.
