Leviticus 13
1 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Bwana akawaambia Mose na Aroni,
2 "When a man shall have a rising in his body's skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons, the priests:
“Iwapo mtu yeyote atakuwa na uvimbe au upele au alama nyeupe juu ya ngozi yake ambayo yaweza kuwa ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza, ni lazima aletwe kwa Aroni kuhani ama kwa wanawe, kuhani mmojawapo.
3 and the priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body's skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean.
Kuhani atachunguza hicho kidonda kilichopo juu ya ngozi yake, na kama nywele za mahali palipo na kidonda zimebadilika kuwa nyeupe, na ikiwa kidonda kimeingia ndani ya ngozi, basi ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza, yaani ukoma. Kuhani atakapomchunguza, atamtangaza mtu huyo kuwa ni najisi kwa kawaida ya ibada.
4 If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and its hair hasn't turned white, then the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
Kama alama juu ya ngozi yake ni nyeupe, lakini haionekani kuwa imeingia ndani zaidi ya ngozi, na nywele kwenye alama hiyo hazijageuka kuwa nyeupe, kuhani atamtenga mtu huyo mahali pa pekee kwa siku saba.
5 The priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and, look, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall isolate him for seven more days.
Siku ya saba, kuhani atamchunguza, na kama hakuona badiliko kwenye kile kidonda na hakijaenea juu ya ngozi, atamtenga kwa siku nyingine saba.
6 The priest shall examine him again on the seventh day; and look, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
Siku ya saba kuhani atamchunguza tena, na kama kidonda kimepungua na hakijaenea juu ya ngozi, kuhani atamtangaza mtu huyo kuwa ni safi, ni upele tu. Ni lazima mtu huyo afue mavazi yake, naye atakuwa safi.
7 But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again.
Lakini ikiwa ule upele utaenea juu ya ngozi yake baada ya yeye kujionyesha kwa kuhani na kutangazwa kuwa safi, ni lazima aende tena kwa kuhani.
8 The priest shall examine him; and look, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.
Kuhani atamchunguza, na kama upele umeenea kwenye ngozi, atamtangaza kuwa najisi, kwani ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza, yaani ukoma.
9 "When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;
“Wakati mtu yeyote ana ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza, ni lazima aletwe kwa kuhani.
10 and the priest shall examine him. Look, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising,
Kuhani atamchunguza na kama kuna uvimbe mweupe juu ya ngozi ambao umefanya nywele kuwa nyeupe, na kama kuna nyama mbichi ndani ya uvimbe,
11 it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.
ni ugonjwa sugu wa ngozi, na kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Hatamtenga tena kwa sababu ni najisi tayari.
12 "If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest;
“Ikiwa ugonjwa utakuwa umeenea kwenye ngozi yake yote kwa kadiri kuhani atakavyoweza kuona, kwamba umeenea kwenye ngozi yote ya huyo mgonjwa kutoka kichwani mpaka wayo,
13 then the priest shall examine him; and, look, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean.
kuhani atamchunguza, na kama ugonjwa umeenea mwili mzima, atamtangaza huyo mtu kuwa safi. Kwa kuwa mwili wote umekuwa mweupe, yeye ni safi.
14 But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
Lakini itokeapo nyama mbichi kwenye ngozi yake, atakuwa najisi.
15 The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.
Kuhani atakapoiona hiyo nyama mbichi, atamtangaza mtu huyo kuwa najisi. Hiyo nyama mbichi ni najisi, ana ugonjwa wa kuambukiza.
16 Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest;
Hiyo nyama mbichi ikigeuka na kuwa nyeupe, ni lazima amwendee kuhani.
17 and the priest shall examine him; and, look, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.
Kuhani atamchunguza, na kama vidonda vimekuwa vyeupe, kuhani atamtangaza mgonjwa huyo kuwa safi; kisha atakuwa safi.
18 "When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,
“Wakati mtu ana jipu juu ya ngozi yake nalo likapona,
19 and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest;
napo mahali palipokuwa na jipu pakatokea uvimbe mweupe, au alama yenye wekundu na weupe, ni lazima akajionyeshe kwa kuhani.
20 and the priest shall examine it; and look, if its appearance is lower than the skin, and its hair has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil.
Kuhani atapachunguza, na kama uvimbe umezama ndani ya ngozi, na nywele zimegeuka kuwa nyeupe, kuhani atamtangaza mtu huyo kuwa najisi. Ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza uliojitokeza pale jipu lilipokuwa.
21 But if the priest examines it, and look, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.
Lakini ikiwa wakati kuhani anapopachunguza pakawa hapana nywele nyeupe ndani yake, wala hakuna shimo bali pamepungua, basi kuhani atamtenga mtu huyo kwa siku saba.
22 If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.
Kama unaenea kwenye ngozi, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi; ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza.
23 But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
Lakini ikiwa ile alama haijabadilika wala kuenea, ni kovu tu kutokana na jipu, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi.
24 "Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white,
“Wakati mtu ameungua kwenye ngozi yake, pakatokea alama yenye wekundu na weupe, au alama nyeupe ikaonekana penye nyama mbichi pale palipoungua,
25 then the priest shall examine it; and look, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and its appearance is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.
kuhani ataichunguza ile alama, na kama nywele zilizoko juu yake zimegeuka kuwa nyeupe, napo pametokea shimo, basi huo ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza ambao umetokea juu ya jeraha la moto. Kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi; ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza.
26 But if the priest examines it, and look, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't lower than the skin, but is faded; then the priest shall isolate him seven days.
Lakini kama kuhani akichunguza na kuona kwamba hakuna nywele nyeupe kwenye alama ile, wala hakuna shimo napo pameanza kupungua, basi kuhani atamtenga kwa siku saba.
27 The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.
Siku ya saba kuhani atamchunguza tena, na kama unaenea kwenye ngozi, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi; ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza.
28 If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn.
Lakini, kama alama ile haikubadilika na wala haijaenea kwenye ngozi, napo pamepungua, ni uvimbe kutokana na jeraha la moto, na kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi; ni kovu tu kutokana na kuungua.
29 "When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,
“Ikiwa mwanaume au mwanamke ana kidonda juu ya kichwa au juu ya kidevu,
30 then the priest shall examine the plague; and look, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard.
kuhani atakichunguza kile kidonda, na kama ataona kuwa kimeingia ndani, na nywele zilizoko juu yake ni njano na nyembamba, kuhani atamtangaza mtu huyo kuwa najisi, kwani ni upele; ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza wa kichwa au kidevu.
31 If the priest examines the plague of itching, and look, its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall isolate him the person infected with itching seven days.
Lakini kama kuhani akichunguza aina hii ya kidonda, kionekane kuwa hakina shimo na hakuna nywele nyeusi juu yake, basi atamtenga mtu huyo kwa siku saba.
32 On the seventh day the priest shall examine the plague; and look, if the itch hasn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn't deeper than the skin,
Siku ya saba kuhani atachunguza kidonda kile, na kama upele haujaenea, na hakuna nywele za manjano juu yake, wala hakuna shimo lolote,
33 then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the priest shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days.
mtu huyo ni lazima anyolewe, isipokuwa mahali palipo na ugonjwa, naye kuhani atamtenga kwa siku nyingine saba.
34 On the seventh day, the priest shall examine the itch; and look, if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
Siku ya saba kuhani atachunguza tena ule upele; ikiwa haujaenea kwenye ngozi na hakuna shimo mahali pale, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi. Lazima afue nguo zake, naye atakuwa safi.
35 But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,
Lakini ikiwa upele utaenea juu ya ngozi baada ya kutangazwa kuwa safi,
36 then the priest shall examine him; and look, if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean.
kuhani atamchunguza, na kama upele umeenea kwenye ngozi, kuhani hana haja ya kutazama kama kuna nywele za manjano, mtu huyo ni najisi.
37 But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean.
Hata hivyo, katika uchunguzi wake akiona hapajabadilika, na nywele nyeusi zimeota juu yake, upele umepona. Yeye si najisi, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi.
38 "When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots;
“Ikiwa mwanaume au mwanamke ana alama nyeupe juu ya ngozi yake,
39 then the priest shall examine them; and look, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; he is clean.
kuhani atamchunguza, na kama alama hizo zina weupe uliofifia, ni vipele visivyo na madhara vilivyojitokeza kwenye ngozi; mtu huyo ni safi.
40 "If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean.
“Wakati mwanaume hana nywele naye ana upaa, yeye ni safi.
41 If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean.
Ikiwa hana nywele kwenye ngozi ya kichwa chake, na ana upaa tangu kwenye paji, ni safi.
42 But if there is on the bald head, or the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague; it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
Lakini kama ana kidonda chenye wekundu na weupe kwenye kichwa chake chenye upaa, au kwenye paji la uso, ni ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza unaojitokeza kichwani au kwenye paji lake la uso.
43 Then the priest shall examine him; and, look, if the rising of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh,
Kuhani atamchunguza, na kama kidonda kilichovimba juu ya kichwa chake au kwenye paji la uso ni chekundu au cheupe kama ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza,
44 he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.
mtu huyo ni mgonjwa, na ni najisi. Kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi kwa sababu ya kidonda kwenye kichwa chake.
45 "The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, 'Unclean. Unclean.'
“Mtu mwenye ugonjwa kama huo wa kuambukiza ni lazima avae nguo zilizoraruka, awachilie nywele zake bila kuzichana, afunike sehemu ya chini ya uso wake, na apige kelele, ‘Najisi! Najisi!’
46 All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. Outside of the camp shall be his dwelling.
Kwa muda wote atakaokuwa na ugonjwa huo wa kuambukiza atabaki kuwa najisi. Ni lazima aishi peke yake; ni lazima aishi nje ya kambi.
47 "The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
“Kama vazi lolote lina maambukizo ya upele: likiwa ni vazi la sufu au kitani,
48 whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin;
lolote lililofumwa au kusokotwa likiwa la kitani au la sufu, ngozi yoyote au chochote kilichotengenezwa kwa ngozi,
49 if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest.
tena kama maambukizo kwenye vazi, au ngozi, au lililofumwa au kusokotwa, au kifaa chochote cha ngozi, ni rangi ya kijani au nyekundu, huo ni upele unaoenea na ni lazima kuhani aonyeshwe.
50 The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.
Kuhani atachunguza upele huo na kukitenga kifaa hicho kwa siku saba.
51 He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean.
Siku ya saba atakichunguza, na kama upele umeenea kwenye nguo, au kifaa kilichofumwa au kusokotwa, au ngozi, kwa vyovyote vile itumikavyo, ni upele uangamizao, kifaa hicho ni najisi.
52 He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is: for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire.
Ni lazima aichome hiyo nguo, ikiwa ni ya sufu ama kitani iliyofumwa ama kusokotwa, ama chombo chochote cha ngozi chenye maambukizo, kwa kuwa ni upele unaoangamiza; chombo chote ni lazima kichomwe moto.
53 "If the priest examines it, and look, the plague hasn't spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin;
“Lakini wakati kuhani atakapokichunguza na kuona kuwa ule upele haujaenea kwenye nguo iliyofumwa au kusokotwa, au vifaa vya ngozi,
54 then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days.
ataagiza kwamba kifaa chenye maambukizo kisafishwe. Kisha atakitenga kwa siku saba.
55 Then the priest shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and look, if the plague hasn't changed its color, and the plague hasn't spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside.
Baada ya kifaa chenye maambukizo kusafishwa, kuhani atakichunguza, na kama upele haujaonyesha badiliko lolote, hata kama haujaenea, ni najisi. Kichome kwa moto, iwe upele umeenea upande mmoja au mwingine.
56 If the priest looks, and look, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
Kama kuhani ataona kuwa ile alama imefifia baada ya kuoshwa, basi atararua sehemu iliyo ambukizwa ya nguo au ngozi au kifaa kilichofumwa au kusokotwa.
57 and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is.
Lakini kama ikijitokeza tena kwenye nguo au kitu kilichofumwa au kusokotwa, ama kifaa cha ngozi, kwamba ule upele unaenea, chochote chenye upele ni lazima kichomwe kwa moto.
58 The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean."
Nguo, au kitu kilichofumwa au kusokotwa, au kifaa chochote cha ngozi ambacho kimesafishwa na kuondolewa upele, ni lazima kioshwe tena, nacho kitakuwa safi.”
59 This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
Haya ni masharti kuhusu maambukizo ya upele kwenye mavazi ya sufu au kitani, yaliyofumwa ama kusokotwa, ama kifaa chochote cha ngozi, kwa ajili ya kuvitangaza kuwa safi au najisi.
