< Leviticus 14 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be,
2 This is the law of the leper: in whatever day he shall have been cleansed, then shall he be brought to the priest.
“Esiawoe nye ɖoɖowo na ame si dze dɔ le ameŋukɔɣi ne wokplɔe va nunɔla gbɔe.
3 And the priest shall come forth out of the camp, and the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague of the leprosy is removed from the leper.
Nunɔla la atso asaɖa la me ayi aɖadoe kpɔ. Ne nunɔla la kpɔ be kpodɔléla la ƒe lãme sẽ la,
4 And the priest shall give directions, and they shall take for him that is cleansed two clean live birds, and cedar wood, and spun scarlet, and hyssop.
ana amea nana xevi eve siwo ŋu se ɖe mɔ le be woaɖu, hekpe ɖe sedati, ka dzĩ kple kakle ŋu be wòawɔ wo ŋu dɔ hena kpodɔléla si haya la ŋutikɔkɔ ƒe kɔnuwo wɔwɔ.
5 And the priest shall give direction, and they shall kill one bird over an earthen vessel over running water.
Nunɔla la ana woawu xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka ɖe ze si me tsi nyui le la me.
6 And as for the living bird he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the spun scarlet, and the hyssop, and he shall dip them and the living bird into the blood of the bird that was slain over running water.
Woanyrɔ xevi evelia si le agbe la kple sedati, ka dzẽ kpakple kakle la ɖe xeviʋu la me le zea me.
7 And he shall sprinkle seven times upon him that was cleansed of his leprosy, and he shall be clean; and he shall let go the living bird into the field.
Ekema nunɔla la ahlẽ ʋu la ɖe ame si ŋu kpodɔ la vɔ le la ŋu zi adre. Nunɔla la aɖe gbeƒã be amea ŋu kɔ azɔ, eye wòaɖe asi le xevi gbagbe la ŋu wòadzo adzo.
8 and the man that has been cleansed shall wash his garments, and shall shave off all his hair, and shall wash himself in water, and shall be clean; and after that he shall go into the camp, and shall remain out of his house seven days.
“Ame si ŋu wokɔ la, anya eƒe awuwo, aƒlɔ eƒe taɖa katã ɖa, ale tsi, eye wòayi aɖanɔ asaɖa la me azɔ. Ke anɔ eƒe agbadɔ godo ŋkeke adre.
9 And it shall come to pass on the seventh day, he shall shave off all his hair, his head and his beard, and his eye-brows, even all his hair shall he shave; and he shall wash his garments, and wash his body with water, and shall be clean.
Le ŋkeke adrea gbe la, agaƒlɔ eƒe taɖa ƒioƒioƒio, alũ eƒe ge kple eƒe adzugo, anya eƒe awuwo, ale tsi, ekema woabui be kpodɔ la vɔ le eŋu azɔ keŋkeŋ.
10 And on the eighth day he shall take two lambs without spot of a year old, and one ewe lamp without spot of a year old, and three-tenths of fine flour for sacrifice kneaded with oil, and one small cup of oil.
“Ne ŋu ke si anye ŋkeke enyia gbe la, amea ana alẽvi eve siwo de blibo, alẽnɔe ɖeka si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye wòde blibo, wɔ memee kilogram atɔ̃ si dzi wokɔ ami ɖo kple ami lita ɖeka ƒe akpa etɔ̃lia.
11 And the priest that cleanses shall present the man under purification, and these [offerings] before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of witness.
Nunɔla si doe kpɔ la atsɔ amea kple eƒe nunana aɖo Yehowa ŋkume le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
12 And the priest shall take one lamb, and offer him for a trespass-offering, and the cup of oil, and set them apart for a special offering before the Lord.
Nunɔla la atsɔ alẽawo dometɔ ɖeka kple ami lita ɖeka ƒe akpa etɔ̃lia la, eye wòatsɔ wo ana Yehowa abe fɔɖivɔsa ene to wo nyenye le yame le vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ me.
13 and they shall kill the lamb in the place where they kill the whole burnt offerings, and the sin-offerings, in the holy places; for it is a sin-offering: as the trespass-offering, it belongs to the priest, it is most holy.
Awu alẽ la le afi si wowua nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsalãwo kple numevɔsalãwo le, le Agbadɔ la me. Woatsɔ fɔɖivɔsa sia ana nunɔla la abe eƒe nuɖuɖu ene, abe ale si wowɔna le nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa me ene. Enye vɔsa kɔkɔe ƒe vɔsa kɔkɔe.
14 And the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass-offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of the person under cleansing, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.
Nunɔla la asisi fɔɖivɔsalã la ƒe ʋu ƒe ɖe ɖe ame si ŋuti kɔm wòle la ƒe ɖusito ŋu, ɖe eƒe ɖusisi ƒe degblefetsu ŋu kple eƒe ɖusifɔ ƒe degblefetsu ŋu.
15 And the priest shall take of the cup of oil, and shall pour it upon his own left hand.
Emegbe nunɔla la akɔ ami la ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe miasiƒome.
16 And he shall dip with the finger of his right hand [into] some of the oil that is in his left hand, and he shall sprinkle with his finger seven times before the Lord.
Nunɔla la atsɔ eƒe nuɖusi ƒe asibidɛ ɖeka ade ami la me, eye wòahlẽe kple eƒe asibidɛ zi adre le Yehowa ŋkume.
17 And the remaining oil that is in his hand, the priest shall put on the tip of the right ear of him that is under cleansing, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass-offering.
Nunɔla la asisi ami si susɔ ɖe eƒe miasiƒome la ɖe amea ƒe ɖusito kple eƒe ɖusisi ƒe adegblefetsu kple eƒe ɖusifɔ ƒe adegblefetsu ŋu, abe ale si wòwɔ kple fɔɖivɔsalã la ƒe ʋu ene.
18 And the remaining oil that is on the hand of the priest, the priest shall put on the head of the cleansed [leper], and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.
Atsɔ ami si gasusɔ ɖe eƒe miasiƒome la asi ɖe ta nɛ. Ale nunɔla la alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume.
19 And the priest shall sacrifice the sin-offering, and the priest shall make atonement for the person under purification [to cleanse him] from his sin, and afterwards the priest shall kill the whole burnt offering.
“Le esia megbe la, nunɔla la asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa la, eye wòagalé avu le ame si ŋu kɔm wòle tso kpodɔ si me la nu. Nunɔla la awu numevɔsalã la,
20 And the priest shall offer the whole burnt offering, and the sacrifice upon the altar before the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be cleansed.
eye wòatsɔ nuɖuvɔsa akpe ɖe eŋu atsɔ sa vɔe le vɔsamlekpui la dzi, alé avu ɖe amea nu, ekema woagblɔ be amea ŋuti kɔ keŋkeŋ azɔ.
21 And if he should be poor, and can’t afford so much, he shall take one lamb for his transgression for a separate-offering, so as to make propitiation for him, and a tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a sacrifice, and one cup of oil,
“Ne amea da ahe ale gbegbe be mate ŋu ana alẽvi eve o la, ekema ana agbovi ɖeka ko na fɔɖivɔsa la be woatsɔ ana Yehowa hena avuléle to enyenye le yame le vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ me. Nu siwo agakpe ɖe esia ŋu koe nye wɔ memee kilogram ɖeka si dzi wokɔ ami ɖo hena nuɖuvɔsa la kple amitimi lita ɖeka ƒe akpa etɔ̃lia.
22 and two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, as he can afford; and the one shall be for a sin-offering, and the other for a whole burnt offering.
“Ele be wòagana akpakpa eve alo ahɔnɛvi eve, wo dometɔ si wòate ŋu ana ko. Woatsɔ xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa, eye woatsɔ evelia asa numevɔ.
23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day, to purify him, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of witness before the Lord.
Amea atsɔ wo vɛ na nunɔla la le Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu le ŋkeke enyia gbe hena eŋutikɔkɔ le Yehowa ŋkume.
24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass-offering, and the cup of oil, and place them for a set-offering before the Lord.
Nunɔla la atsɔ alẽvi kple amitimi lita ɖeka ƒe akpa etɔ̃lia la asa fɔɖivɔ, eye wòanye wo le vɔsamlekpui la ŋgɔ abe wo tsɔtsɔ na Yehowa ƒe dzesi ene.
25 And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass-offering; and the priest shall take of the blood of the trespass-offering, and put it on the tip of the right ear of him that is under purification, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.
Emegbe la, awu alẽvi la na fɔɖivɔsa la, eye wòasi ʋu la ƒe ɖe ɖe ame si ŋu kɔm wòle la ƒe ɖusito ŋu kple eƒe ɖusisi ƒe degblefetsu dzi kple eƒe ɖusifɔ ƒe degblefetsu dzi.
26 And the priest shall pour of the oil on his own left hand.
Azɔ la, nunɔla la atrɔ ami la akɔ ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe miasiƒome,
27 And the priest shall sprinkle with the finger of his right hand some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord.
eye wòatsɔ eƒe ɖusi ƒe asibidɛ ɖeka ahlẽ ami la ƒe ɖe zi adre le Yehowa ŋkume.
28 And the priest shall put of the oil that is on his hand on the tip of the right ear of him that is under purification, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass-offering.
Ekema asi ami si le eƒe asiƒome la ƒe ɖe ɖe eƒe ɖusito ŋu kple eƒe ɖusisi ƒe adegblefetsu kple eƒe ɖusifɔ ƒe adegblefetsu dzi, abe ale si wòwɔ kple nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa la ƒe ʋu ene.
29 And that which is left of the oil which is on the hand of the priest he shall put on the head of him that is purged, and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.
Nunɔla la atsɔ ami si susɔ ɖe eƒe asiƒome la asi na ame si ŋu kɔm wòle la ƒe ta, atsɔ alé avu ɖe enu le Yehowa ŋkume.
30 And he shall offer one of the turtledoves or of the young pigeons, as he can afford it,
Azɔ la, ana akpakpa eveawo alo ahɔnɛvi eveawo, wo dometɔ si wòate ŋui ko.
31 the one for a sin-offering, the other for a whole burnt offering with the meat-offering, and the priest shall make an atonement before the Lord for him that is under purification.
Woatsɔ xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka asa nu vɔ̃ vɔsa, eye woatsɔ evelia asa numevɔ kpe ɖe nuɖuvɔ ŋu. Nunɔla la alé avu ɖe amea nu le Yehowa ŋkume.”
32 This is the law for him in whom is the plague of leprosy, and who can’t afford the offerings for his purification.
Esiawoe nye se siwo ku ɖe ŋutigbalẽdɔléla siwo mate ŋu axe fe ɖe vɔsasa siwo woɖo hena wo ŋutikɔkɔ o la ŋu.
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be,
34 Whenever you shall enter into the land of the Chananites, which I give you for a possession, and I shall put the plague of leprosy in the houses of the land of your possession;
“Ne mieɖo Kanaanyigba, afi si mele tsɔtsɔm na mi be wòanye mia tɔ dzi, eye meda kpodɔ ɖe aƒe aɖe me le anyigba la dzi la,
35 then the owner of the house shall come and report to the priest, saying, I have seen as it were a plague in the house.
ekema ele be aƒea tɔ nava gblɔ na nunɔla la be, ‘Edze nam abe ɖe kpodɔ le nye aƒe me ene!’
36 And the priest shall give orders to remove the furniture of the house, before the priest comes in to see the plague, and [thus] none of the things in the house shall become unclean; and afterwards the priest shall go in to examine the house.
Nunɔla la ana woafɔ nu sia nu ado goe le aƒea me hafi wòalé ŋku ɖe aƒea ŋu, ale be nu siwo le aƒea me la dometɔ aɖeke magazu nu makɔmakɔ ne ekpɔ be kpodɔ le aƒea me o.
37 And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, [if] the plague is in the walls of the house, [he will see] greenish or reddish cavities, and the appearance of them [will be] beneath the surface of the walls.
Ne ekpɔ aŋgbamu ƒe teƒe kple teƒe dzĩ aɖewo le aƒea me ƒe gliwo ŋu, eye teƒe mawo dze abe ɖe wonye ɖe eme vie ene la,
38 And the priest shall come out of the house to the door of the house, and the priest shall separate the house seven days.
ele be nunɔla la natu aƒe la ŋkeke adre,
39 And the priest shall return on the seventh day and view the house; and, behold, [if] the plague is spread in the walls of the house,
eye wòatrɔ ava le ŋkeke adrea gbe be wòagalé ŋku ɖe aƒea ŋu. Ne teƒeawo keke ɖe edzi le gliawo ŋu la,
40 then the priest shall give orders, and they shall take away the stones in which the plague is, and shall cast them out of the city into an unclean place.
ekema nunɔla la ana woadza teƒe mawo ɖa le gliawo ŋu, eye woalɔ gli kakawo aɖakɔ ɖe teƒe makɔmakɔ aɖe le dua godo.
41 And they shall scrape the house within round about, and shall pour out the dust scraped off outside the city into an unclean place.
Le esia megbe la, ana woaka xɔa me ƒe gliwo ŋu nyuie, eye woalɔ gli kakawo aɖakɔ ɖe teƒe makɔmakɔ aɖe le dua godo.
42 And they shall take other scraped stones, and put them in the place of the [former] stones, and they shall take other plaster and plaster the house.
Woatsɔ kpe yeyewo aɖɔli kpe xoxo siwo woho le gliawo me, eye woagbugbɔ gliawo ŋu azrɔ̃.
43 And if the plague should return again, and break out in the house after they have taken away the stones and after the house is scraped, and after it has been plastered,
“Ne aŋgbamu teƒe kple teƒe dzĩawo gadze la,
44 then the priest shall go in and see if the plague is spread in the house: it is a confirmed leprosy in the house, it is unclean.
nunɔla la agava alé ŋku ɖe wo ŋu, eye ne ekpɔ be wokeke ɖe edzi la, ekema atso nya me be kpodɔe, eye aƒea ŋu mekɔ o.
45 And they shall take down the house, and its timbers and its stones, and they shall carry out all the mortar without the city into an unclean place.
Ana woagbã xɔ la, eye woalɔ kpeawo, atiawo kple anyi la aɖakɔ ɖe teƒe makɔmakɔ aɖe le dua godo.
46 And he that goes into the house at any time, during its separation, shall be unclean until evening.
“Ame sia ame si ge ɖe aƒea me le esime wotui la, ŋu mekɔ o va se ɖe fiẽ.
47 And he that sleeps in the house shall wash his garments, and be unclean until evening; and he that eats in the house shall wash his garments, and be unclean until evening.
Ele na ame sia ame si mlɔ aƒea me alo ɖu nu le eme la be wòanya eƒe awuwo.
48 and if the priest shall arrive and enter and see, and behold the plague be not at all spread in the house after the house has been plastered, then the priest shall declare the house clean, because the plague is healed.
“Ke ne nunɔla la va zi evelia be yealé ŋku ɖe aƒea ŋu, eye teƒeawo megadze le gliawo ŋu zɔzrɔ̃ megbe o la, ekema atso nya me be aƒea ŋu kɔ, eye kpodɔ la megali o.
49 And he shall take to purify the house two clean living birds, and cedar wood, and spun scarlet, and hyssop.
Atsɔ xevi eve, sedati, ka dzĩ kple kakle awɔ nuŋukɔkɔ ƒe wɔnawoe.
50 And he shall kill one bird in an earthen vessel over running water.
Awu xeviawo dometɔ ɖeka ɖe ze si me tsi nyui le la me.
51 And he shall take the cedar wood, and the spun scarlet, and the hyssop, and the living bird; and shall dip it into the blood of the bird slain over running water, and with them he shall sprinkle the house seven times.
Ekema atsɔ sedati la, kakle la, ka dzĩ la kple xevi gbagbe la ade xevi si wowu la ƒe ʋu kple tsi nyui me, eye wòahlẽe ɖe aƒea ŋu zi adre.
52 and he shall purify the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the spun scarlet.
Akɔ aƒea ŋu kple xevi la ƒe ʋu, tsi nyui la, xevi gbagbe la, sedati la kple kakle kple ka dzĩ la.
53 And he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the field, and shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.
Aɖe asi le xevi gbagbe la ŋu wòadzo ayi gbe me le du la godo. Mɔ sia dzie wòato aɖe vɔ̃ ɖa le aƒe la ŋu, eye wòakɔ eŋuti.”
54 This [is] the law concerning every plague of leprosy and scurf,
Esiawoe nye se siwo ku ɖe teƒe vovovo siwo kpodɔ ado ɖo la ŋu,
55 and of the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,

56 and of a sore, and of a clear spot, and of a shining one,
le nutete teƒe, dzobi teƒe loo alo teƒe dzĩ aɖe le ame ƒe ŋutilã ŋu.
57 and of declaring in what day it is unclean, and in what day it shall be purged: this [is] the law of the leprosy.
