Leviticus 13
1 The Lord told Moses and Aaron,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se,
2 “Anyone who has a swelling, a rash, or a spot on the skin that may be an infectious skin disease must be taken to Aaron the priest or to one of his descendants.
“Sɛ obi hu sɛ biribi ahon ne honam ani, anaa pɔmpɔ anaa atape asi no na adidi akɔ ne honam mu a, onhu sɛ ɛyɛ kwata. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa onipa no kɔma ɔsɔfo Aaron anaa ne mmabarima no mu baako
3 The priest will inspect whatever is on the skin. If the hair there has turned white and if the issue seems to be more than something on the surface, it is a serious skin disease, and the priest who inspects it will declare the person unclean.
na ɔhwɛ kuru no. Sɛ nwi a esi kuru no hɔ dan yɛ fitaa na kuru no atu atɔ ɔhonam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no da no adi sɛ ɔyarefo no yɛ ɔkwatani.
4 But if the spot is only a white discoloration and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and if the hair on the spot has not turned white, the priest will place the person in isolation for seven days.
Na sɛ kuru no ntɔɔ ɔhonam no mu na sɛ kuru no hɔ nwi no nso nyɛɛ fitaa a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no yi ɔyarefo no fi nnipa mu nnanson.
5 On the seventh day the priest will conduct another inspection, and if he discovers that the spot hasn't changed and hasn't spread on the skin, the priest must place the person in isolation for another seven days.
Nnanson no du a, ɔsɔfo no bɛhwɛ no bio na sɛ kuru no nsakrae na ɛntrɛwee wɔ ɔhonam no ani a, ɔsɔfo no bɛsan atwa no asu nnanson bio.
6 On the seventh day after this the priest will inspect it again. If the spot has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest will declare the person clean since it was a rash. They must wash their clothes and will be clean.
Afei ne nnanson so no, ɔsɔfo no bɛhwɛ ne honam ani bio, na sɛ ohu sɛ ɔyare no ano abrɛ ase a ɛntrɛwee a, ɔsɔfo no bɛka ato gua sɛ, ɔyarefo no ho atɔ no; ɔbɛkyerɛ mu sɛ ɛyɛ ntwom bi na eguu no bere tiaa bi mu. Enti sɛ ɔyarefo no horo ne ntama a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ wanya ayaresa awie.
7 However, if the rash does spread after the person has been inspected by the priest and has been declared clean, the person must go back to be inspected again.
Na sɛ nso ɔyarefo no ba ɔsɔfo no nkyɛn ma ɔhwɛ no na ɔyare no atrɛtrɛw a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsan ba ɔsɔfo no nkyɛn bio
8 If the priest discovers that the rash has spread, he must declare the person unclean because it is certainly a skin disease.
na ɔhwɛ no na sɛ ɔyare no atrɛtrɛw wɔ ɔhonam no ani a, afei, ɔbɛpae mu aka sɛ amanne kwan so no, ne ho ntew na ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsanyare.
9 Anyone who develops an infectious skin disease must be taken to the priest.
“Sɛ obi nya ɔhonam ani nsanyare a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfo na ɔhwɛ no.
10 The priest will inspect them, and if there is a white swelling on the skin and the hair there has turned white, and there is an open wound in the swelling,
Sɛ ɔsɔfo no hu sɛ nwi no bi ayɛ fitaa na kuru atɔ saa beae hɔ a,
11 it is a serious skin disease and the priest must declare them unclean. He doesn't need to place the person in isolation because they are unclean.
na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsanyare, na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no de to gua sɛ amanne kwan so no, onipa no ho ntew. Ɛba saa a, wɔnhwehwɛ ɔyare no mu bio, efisɛ ɛda adi pefee sɛ ɔhonam no ayɛ kwata.
12 However, if the skin disease affects all their skin so that it covers their skin from head to toe, everywhere the priest can see,
“Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfo no hu sɛ kwata no adidi ne honam nyinaa fi ne ti so kosi ne nan ase nyinaa a,
13 the priest shall inspect them, and if the disease has covered their entire body, he will declare the person clean. As it has all turned white, they are clean.
ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka se ne ho tew, efisɛ ne honam nyinaa adan ayɛ fitaa.
14 But if when someone's inspected an open wound is found, they will be unclean.
Na sɛ akuru no bi pue ne honam no baabi foforo a, wɔbɛpae mu aka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.
15 When the priest discovers an open wound, he must declare the person unclean. The open wound is unclean; it is an infectious skin disease.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no pae mu ka ntɛm ara a ohu kuru wɔ honam no fa baabi, efisɛ akuru no kyerɛ sɛ kwata wɔ ɔhonam no mu.
16 But if the open wound heals and becomes white, the person must go back to the priest.
Na sɛ akuru no wu na ɛdan yɛ fitaa sɛ ɔhonam a aka no a, ɔkwatani no bɛkɔ ɔsɔfo no hɔ bio.
17 The priest will inspect them again, and if the wound has turned white, the priest is to declare the person clean; then they are clean.
Ɔsɔfo no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ ɔhonam no fa hɔ ayɛ fitaa de a, ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ne ho atɔ no.
18 When a boil comes up on someone's skin and then it heals,
“Sɛ pɔmpɔ si obi na agyae
19 and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot appears in its place, they must show themselves to the priest.
na sɛ baabi a pɔmpɔ no sii no biribi hyerɛnn bi, anaa nea ɛbere kakra hon wɔ hɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfo.
20 The priest shall inspect it, and if it seems to be more than something on the surface, and if the hair there has turned white, the priest shall declare him unclean. It is a serious skin disease that has infected the boil.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ na ɔyare no adidi kɔ ne honam mu na nwi a ɛwɔ ɔhonam no hɔ no ayɛ fitaa a, ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka se ɔyarefo no ho ntew, efisɛ kwata apue afi pɔmpɔ no mu.
21 However, if when the priest inspects it, it doesn't have white hair in it and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and has faded, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ na ohu sɛ nwi fitaa biara nni baabi a ɔyare no wɔ hɔ no, na ɔyare no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na ahosu no yɛ nsonso a ɔsɔfo no beyi no afi nnipa mu nnanson.
22 If then the spot has spread further on the skin, the priest will declare them unclean; it is a disease.
Saa bere no mu sɛ beae hɔ no trɛtrɛw a, ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka se, onipa no yare kwata.
23 But if the spot stays the same and doesn't spread, it's just the scar from the boil, and the priest will declare them clean.
Na sɛ beae a ɛhɔ ayɛ hyerɛnn no anhon bio na antrɛtrɛw a, na ɛyɛ pɔmpɔ no twa kɛkɛ enti ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka se ne ho tew.
24 If someone has a burn on their skin and where it's raw changes into a reddish-white or white spot,
“Sɛ obi hyehyew na sɛ ɔhyehyew no mu yɛ kɔkɔɔ ne fitaa anaa fitaa a,
25 the priest must inspect it. If the hair in the spot has turned white and the spot seems to be more than something on the surface, it is a serious skin disease that has infected the burn, and the priest who inspects it will declare the person unclean. It is an infectious skin disease.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ faako a ɔhyehyew no wɔ. Sɛ nwi a ɛwɔ beae a ɛhɔ nnii dɛm biara no dan yɛ fitaa na sɛ ɛyɛ ade a adidi kɔ ɔhonam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata na apue afi ɔhyehyew no mu, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no pae mu ka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.
26 However, if when the priest inspects it, it doesn't have white hair in it and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and has faded, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ hu sɛ nwi fitaa nni beae a ɛhɔ yɛ hyerɛnn no, na sɛ hyerɛnn no nnidi nkɔɔ ɔhonam no mu, na ɔyare no regyae a, ɔsɔfo no beyi no afi nnipa mu nnanson
27 On the seventh day the priest will inspect the person again. If then the spot has spread further on the skin, the priest will declare them unclean; it is a serious skin disease.
na wahwɛ no ne nnanson so bio. Sɛ ɔyare no trɛw fa ɔhonam no ani a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no pae mu ka se kwata ayɛ onipa no.
28 But if the spot stays the same and hasn't spread on the skin, but has faded, it's the swelling from the burn, and the priest will declare them clean because it's just the scar from the burn.
Nanso sɛ ɔhonam no fa hɔ a ayɛ hyerɛnn no antrɛtrɛw ɔhonam no ani, na sɛ ɛyɛ sɛ nea ɛhɔ retwintwam no a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhyehyew twa bi, enti ɔsɔfo no bɛda no adi sɛ ɔnyare kwata.
29 If someone, man or woman, has a sore on the head or chin,
“Sɛ kuru da ɔbarima anaa ɔbea bi tirim anaa nʼafono ho a,
30 the priest shall inspect it, and if it appears to be more than superficial and the hair in it has become pale and thin, the priest must declare them unclean; it is an infection producing scabs, a serious disease of the head or chin.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ; sɛ ɔhwɛ na ohu sɛ ɔyare no adidi kɔ ɔhonam no mu na ɔsan hu nwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsrade wɔ kuru no mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔpae mu ka se onipa no yare kwata.
31 However, if the priest inspects the scabby infection and it doesn't seem to be more than superficial and has no pale hair in it, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ na ohu sɛ ɔyare no nnidi nkɔɔ ɔhonam no mu, na mmom, ɛwɔ ɔhonam no ani a nwi tuntum wɔ mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ woyi onipa no fi nnipa mu nnanson,
32 On the seventh day the priest will inspect the person again and if the scabby infection has not spread and there is no pale hair in it, and it doesn't seem to be more than superficial,
na ne nnanson so no, wɔsan hwɛ no bio. Sɛ ɔyare no ntrɛtrɛwee, na nwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsrade nnaa ne ho adi wɔ mu na ennidi nkɔɔ ɔhonam no mu a,
33 then the person must shave themselves except for the scaly area. The priest is to place the person in isolation for another seven days.
ɔbɛtwerɛw nwi a atwa kuru no ho ahyia nyinaa (na mmom ɛnyɛ kuru no mu ankasa) na ɔsɔfo no ayi no afi nnipa mu nnanson bio.
34 On the seventh day the priest will inspect the scabby infection, and if it has not spread on the skin and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, the priest is to pronounce the person clean. They must wash their clothes and will be clean.
Ne nnanson so no, ɔbɛsan ahwɛ no, na sɛ ɔyare no ntrɛtrɛw nnidi nkɔɔ ɔhonam no mu a, ɔsɔfo no bɛpae mu aka se onipa no ho atew na sɛ ɔhoro ne ntama wie a, na afei wadi mu.
35 However, if the scabby infection has spread on the skin after been declared clean,
Na sɛ akyiri no saa ɔyare no trɛtrɛw a,
36 the priest must inspect them, and if the scabby infection has indeed spread on the skin, the priest doesn't need to check for pale hair; the person is unclean.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no hwɛ no bio a ɔhwɛ sɛ nwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsrade fra ɔyare no mu na ɔpae mu ka se, onipa no yare kwata.
37 But if the priest sees that the scabby infection hasn't changed, and black hair has grown in it, then it has healed. The person is clean, and the priest must declare it.
Na sɛ ɔyare no trɛw a ɛtrɛtrɛw no gyae na sɛ nwi tuntum fuw wɔ beae hɔ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ne ho atɔ no a kwata biara nni ne ho enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no pae mu ka se ne ho atew.
38 If someone, man or woman, has white spots on the skin,
“Sɛ ɔbarima anaa ɔbea bi honam ani yɛ fitaa hanahana,
39 the priest shall inspect them, and if the spots appear a dull white, it's just a rash that has developed on the skin; the person is clean.
na akyiri no ɔhonam no ani dum ara na ɛredum a, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ kwata ayɛ onipa no, na mmom, ɛyɛ ɔyare foforo bi.
40 If a man loses his hair and goes bald, he is still clean.
“Sɛ obi ti so pa a, ɛwɔ mu sɛ ne ti so apa de, nanso ɛno nkyerɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔkwatani!
41 If he has a receding hairline and he goes bald on his forehead, he is still clean.
Sɛ obi ti so pa fi ne moma so a, na ne moma so ara na apa, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ kwata.
42 But if a reddish-white sore appears on his bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease developing.
Na mmom, sɛ nsisii akɔkɔɔ a fitaa frafra mu wɔ tipae no so a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ebia kwata pɛ sɛ ɛyɛ saa onipa no.
43 The priest must inspect him, and if the swelling of the sore on his bald head or forehead looks reddish-white like a skin disease,
Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsɔfo no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ biribi kɔkɔɔ aboa ne ho baabi te sɛ kwata a,
44 then he is has an infectious disease; he is unclean. The priest must declare him unclean because of the infection on his head.
na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, kwata ayɛ no, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfo no pae mu ka se, onipa no yare kwata.
45 Anyone who has such diseases must wear clothes that are torn and let their hair remain uncombed. They must cover their faces and shout out, ‘Unclean, unclean!’
“Onipa biara a wobehu sɛ ɔyare kwata no, ɛsɛ sɛ ofura ntama a atetew na ɔma ne tinwi fuw, twa mpɛsɛmpɛsɛ na ɔkata nʼanim fa na ɔnam a ɔteɛteɛ mu se, ‘Me ho ntew! Me ho ntew!’
46 They remain unclean as long as the infection lasts. They have to live alone somewhere outside the camp.
Na nna dodow a ɔyare no nkɔe no de, wɔbɛfa ɔyarefo no sɛ ne ho ntew enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena kurow no akyi baabi.
47 The following regulations relate to any material that becomes affected by mold, such as wool or linen clothing,
“Sɛ kwata ho nsɛnkyerɛnne bi ka atade,
48 anything woven or knitted made from linen or wool, or anything made of leather:
kuntutam anaa nweratam, aboa nhoma anaa biribiara a wɔde aboa nwoma ayɛ mu,
49 If the spot is green or red on the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted or some other leather item, then it is infected with mold and must be shown to the priest.
na sɛ nsisii ahabammono anaa kɔkɔɔ wɔ mu a, ebia na ɛyɛ kwata, enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde kɔma ɔsɔfo na ɔhwɛ.
50 The priest must inspect the mold and place the item in isolation for seven days.
Ɔsɔfo no de bɛkɔ akosie nnanson.
51 On the seventh day the priest shall inspect it again, and if the patch of mold has spread in the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted or some other leather item, then it is a harmful mold; the article is unclean, whatever it is being used for.
Nnanson so no, wasan ahwɛ bio. Na sɛ ohu sɛ nsisii no atrɛtrɛw a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɛyɛ kwata a etumi san nnipa.
52 The priest is to burn it, whether the affected item is wool or linen or leather. Because the mold is harmful, the article must be burned.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ogya hyew ntama, kuntu ne ntadetam ne aboa nwoma no nyinaa, efisɛ, ɛnam eyinom so betumi ama ɔyare no asan nnipa.
53 However, if when the priest inspects it again it, the patch mold has not spread,
“Na sɛ ne nnanson so no ɔhwɛ na sɛ nsisii no ntrɛtrɛwee a,
54 the priest shall order that the affected item is washed and placed in isolation for another seven days.
ɔsɔfo no bɛhyɛ ama wɔahoro nneɛma a wodwen sɛ ɔyare no bi wɔ mu no no nyinaa na wɔakora no baabi bio nnanson.
55 Once it has been washed, the priest is to inspect again it, and if the item with the mold hasn't changed how it looks, it is unclean. Though the mold hasn't spread, you must burn the item, whether the mold damage is on the inside or the outside.
Sɛ nnanson bio akyi faako a ɔyare no wɔ hɔ no nsesaa nʼahosu na ɛntrɛwee a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ kwata nti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyew ade no, efisɛ ɔyare no adidi kɔ mu ara yiye.
56 If the priest inspects it and the patch of mold has faded after it has been washed, he is to cut out the affected part the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfo no hu sɛ nneɛmahoro no akyi, nsisii no ano abrɛ ase a, obetwa hɔ afi ntama anaa aboa nwoma a wɔde adi dwuma bi no mu.
57 However, if the mold comes back then it is spreading. In that case you must burn the affected item.
Na sɛ ɛsan ba bio de a, na ɛyɛ kwata enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyew no.
58 If the mold disappears after washing, then have it washed again, and it will be clean.
Sɛ wɔhoro na asɛm biara amma ho a, wotumi de di dwuma biara bere a wɔasan ahoro no.”
59 These are the regulations regarding what needs to be done when mold contaminates wool or linen material, whether woven or knitted, or any leather item, as to declaring it clean or unclean.”
Eyinom ne mmara a ɛfa kwata a ɛwɔ ntama anaa biribiara a wɔde aboa nhoma ayɛ a wɔnam so da no adi sɛ kwata wɔ dekode no mu anaa bi nni mu no ho.
