Leviticus 13
1 YHWH spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Yahweh akazungumza na Musa na Aroni, akasema,
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:
Mtu yeyote anayeonekana na uvimbe au pele au doa ling'aalo juu ya ngozi ya mwili wake, na likawa limeambukizwa ugonjwa wa ngozi mwilini mwake, ni lazima aletwe kwa Aroni kuhani mkuu au kwa mmoja wa wanawe makuhani.
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.
Naye kuhanai atachunguza ugonjwa huo kwenye ngozi ya mwili wake. Iwapo malaika zilizopo eneo lenye ugonjwa zimegeuka kuwa nyeupe, na iwapo ugonjwa umejitokeza juu ya ngozi, huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza. Baada cha kuhani kumchunguza, atamtangaza kuwa ni najisi.
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.
Iwapo lile doa ling'aalo katika ngozi yake ni jeupe, na kuonekana kwake halikwenda chini zaidi ya ngozi, na iwapo malaika za eneo lenye ugonjwa hazijabadilika kuwa nyeupe, naye kuhani atamtenga mgonjwa 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.
Katika siku ya saba, huyo kuhani itambidi kumchunguza tena ili kuona kama katika maamzi yake huo ugonjwa siyo mbaya, na kama haujaenea kwenye ngozi. Iwapo haujaenea, basi, kuhani atamtenga kwa siku saba zaidi.
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.
Naye kuhani atamchunga tena katika siku ya saba ili kuona kama ugonjwa ubepona na haujasambaa zaidi kwenye ngozi. kama haujasambaa, basi, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa yeye ni safi. Ni upele tu. Naye atafua nguo zake, na kisha yeye yu 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 endapo ule upele utakuwa umishasambaa kwenye ngozi baada ya kuwa amejionyesha kwa kuhani kwa ajili kusafishwa kwake, itambidi kujionyesha 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.
Naye kuhani atamchunguza ilikuona kama huo upele umsambaa zaidi ndani ya ngozi. Na endapo utakuwa umesambaa, kisha kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza.
9 "When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;
Iwapo ugonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza umo kwa mtu fulani, naye mtu huyo yapasa aletwe kwa kuhan.
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 ili kuona kama kunauvimbe mweupe katika ngozi yake, endapo malaika zitakuwa zimebadilika kuwa nyeupe, au kumekuwa na nyama mbichi kwenye 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.
Kama ipo, basi, huo ni ugonjwa sugu wa ngozi, naye kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Hatamtenga kwa kuwa yeye tayari ni najisi.
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;
Iwapo huo ugonjwa unajitokeza na kupanuka zaidi kwenye ngozi, na kuifunika ngozi ya mtu kwa ugonjwa tangu kichwani pake hata miguuni, maadamu anajitokeza kwa kuhani,
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.
naye kuhani atamchunguza ili kuona kama huo ugonjwa umeshaenea mwili wake wote. Ikiwa imetokeo hivyo, kuhani atamtangaza mtu huyo aliye na ugonjwa kuwa ni safi. Ikiwa amebadilika kuwa mweupe, huyo ni safi.
14 But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
Lakini ikiwa nyama mbichi imeonekana juu yake, atakuwa najisi.
15 The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.
Kuhani ataiangalia hiyo nyama mbichi na kumtanga kuwa najisi kwa sababu hiyo nyama mbichi ni najisi. Huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza.
16 Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest;
Lakini endapo hiyo nyama mbichi inageuka kuwa nyeupe tena, naye huyo mtu hana budi kwenda kwa 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 ili kuona kama hiyo nyama imebadilika kuwa nyeupe. Kama imekuwa hivyo naye kuhani atatangaza kwamba mtu huyo kuwa ni safi.
18 "When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,
Mtu anapokuwa na jipu juu yangozi yake na limishapona,
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;
na mahali pa jipu pamekuwa na uvimbe au doa lenye kung'aa, wekundu unaochanganyikana na weupe, yapasa kuonyeshwa 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.
Naye kuhani atalichunguza ili kuona kama linaonekana limekwenda chini ya ngozi, na kama hizo malaika zimebadilika kuwa nyeupe, kama ni hivyo, kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza, endapo utakuwa umezalishwa mahali lilipokuwa jipu hilo.
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 endapo kuhani atakuwa amelichunguza na haoni malaika nyeupe ndani yake, na kwamba iliko chini ya ngozi bali limefifia, kisha kuhani atamtenga kwa siku saba.
22 If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.
Kama linaenea kwa kupanuka kwenye ngozi, kisha kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni ugonjwa 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 kama hilo doa lenye kung'ara linabaki mahali pake na halijasambaa, basi hilo ni kovu la jipu, naye 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,
Ngozi inapoungua na nyama mbichi ya inamekuwa na wekundu uliochanganyika na weupe au doa jeupe,
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.
kisha kuhani ataichunguza kuona kama malaika zilizoko kwenye doa hilo zimebadilika na kuwa nyeupe, na kama limeonekana kwenda chini zaidi ya ngozi, kama limekuwa hivyo, basi huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza. Umejitokeza kwenye jeraha la moto, naye kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni ugonjwa 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 endapo kuahani analichunguza na naona kwamba hakuna malaika nyeupe kwenye doa, na kwamba halikuenda chini ya ngozi bali linafifia, basi, kuhani atamtenga mtu huyo 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.
Kisha yapasa kuahani kumchunguza tena katika siku ya saba. Iwapo litakuwa limesambaa kwa upana kwenye ngozi, naye kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni ugojwa 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.
Iwapo hilo doa lisalia mahali pake na halitakuwa limesambaa kwenye ngozi bali limefifia, ni uvimbe tu kutokana na kuungua moto, naye kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi, kwa kuwa siyo zaidi ya jeraha la kuungua.
29 "When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,
Iwapo mwanaume au mwanamke ana ugonjwa wa kuambukiza kichwani au kidevuni pake,
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.
kisha kuhani atamchunguza mtu huyo kwa ajili ya ugonjwa wa kuambukiza ili kuona kama unakwenda ndani zaidi ya ngozi, na kama kuna nywele za manjano, nyembamba ndani yake. endapo zinaonekana, kisha kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi. Huo ni mwasho, ugonjwa wa kuambukiza kichwani au kidevuni.
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.
Iwapo kuhani anachunguza ugonjwa wa mwasho na anagundu kuwa hauko chini ya ngozi, na kama hakuna nywele nyeusi ndani yake, kisha kuhani atamtenga mtu huyo mwenye ugonjwa wa mwasho 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,
Katika siku ya saba kuhani atauchunguza tena huo ugonjwa ili kuona kama umesambaa, Endapo hakuna malaika za manjano, na iwapo ugonjwa uko usawa ngozi tu,
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.
basi, yapasa mtu huyo kunyolewa., lakini sehemu yenye ugonjwa haitanyolewa, naye kuhani atamtenga mtu huyo mwenye ugonjwa wa mwasho kwa siku 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.
Katika siku ya saba kuhani atauchunguza tena ugonjwa ili kuona kama umacha kusambaa ndani ya ngozi. Iwapo unaonekana kuwa hukwenda chini zaidi ya ngozi, kisha kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi. Mtu huyo yapasa kufua nguo zake, na kisha atakuwa safi.
35 But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,
Lakini ikiwa ugonjwa wa mwasho umeenea kwa sehemu kubwa kwenye ngozi baada ya kuhani kutangaza kuwa alikuwa 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.
naye kuhani itabidi amchunguze tena. Iwapo ugonjwa utakuwa umesambaa katika ngozi, kuhani hahitajiki kutafuta 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.
Lakini iwapo katika mtazamo wa kuhani inaonekana kuwa huo ugonjwa wa mwasho umekoma kusambaa, basi huo ugonjwa umekwisha pona. Yeye ni safi, naye kuhani atamtangaza kuwa safi.
38 "When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots;
Iwapo mwanume au mwanamke ana madoa juu ya ngozi,
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.
kisha kuhani atamchunguza mtu huyo ili kuona kama hayo madoa ni meupe kwa kufiifia, ambalo ni kovu tu lililojitokeza kwenye ngozi. Yeye yu safi.
40 "If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean.
Iwapo nywele za mtu zimenyonyoka kichwani, yeye ni kipara lakini yu safi.
41 If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean.
Na iwapo nywele zake zimenyonyoka upande wa mbele wa kichwa chake, na iwapo paji lake la uso lina kipara, yeye yu 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 endapo kuna kidonda chenye wekundu uliochanganyika na weupe, juu ya kipara chake au paji lake la uso, huo ni ugonjwa wa kuambukiza uliojitokeza.
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,
Naye kuhani atamchunguza ili kuona iwapo uvimbe wa eneo linaugua juu ya upara wake au paji lake la uso lina wekundu uliochanganyika na weupe, kama kuonekana kwa ugonjwa wa kuambukiza kwenye ngozi.
44 he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.
Ikionekana hivyo, basi huyo ana ugonjwa wa kuambukiza naye ni najisi. Hakika kuhani atamtangaza kuwa najisi kwa sababu ya ugonjwa wake kichwani pake.
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 aliye na ugojwa wa kuambukiza atavaa nguo zilizochanika, ni lazima nywele zake ziachwe wazi, na yampasa kufunika uso wake mpaka puani na kupiga 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.
Naye atakuwa najisi siku zote za ugonjwa wake wa kuambukiza. Kwa sababu anao ugonjwa unaosambaa, yapasa kuishi peke yake nje ya kambi.
47 "The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
Kuna wakati fulani vazi la mtu hupata ukungu juu yake. Laweza kuwa vazi, ama 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;
au kitu chochote kilichosukwa au kufumwa kutokana na sufu au kitani, au ngozi au kitu 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.
Iwapo sehemu iliyochafuliwa ina rangi ya kijani au nyekundu katika vazi, ngozi, kifaa kilichosukwa au kufumwa, basi huo ni ukungu uanasambaa, ni lazima uonyeshwe kwa kuhani.
50 The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.
Yapasa kuhani akichunguze hicho kifaa kwa ajili ya ukungu; ni lazima akitenge kitu chochote kilicho na ukungu 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.
Naye atauchunguza tena huo ukungu katika siku ya saba. Endapo utakuwa umesambaa katika kifaa hicho, basi ni wazi kwamba huo ni ukungu wenye kuangamiza, na hicho kifaa 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.
Na mwenye kukimiliki atalazimika kukichoma na kukiteketeza kabisa hicho kifaa kilichoonekana na ukungu ndani yake, haijalishi kiwe ni kifaa cha aina gani, kwani huo ukungu unaweza kusababisha ugonjwa.
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;
Iwapo kuhani anakichunguza hicho kifaa na kuona kwamba ukungu haujaenea kwenye vazi au chombo kilichosukwa au kusokotwa kutokana na sufu, kitani au 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.
basi atawaagiza wakisafishe hicho kifaa kilichopatikana na ukungu, naye yampasa kukitenga kwa siku saba zaidi.
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.
Kisha kuhani atakichunguza tena hicho kifaa chenye ukungu baada ya kuwa kimesafinshwa. Kama ukungu haukubadilika rangi yake, hata kama haukusambaa, kifaa hicho ni najisi. Yapasa kichomwe, haijalishi ni wapi ukungu huo utakuwa umekichafua.
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:
Iwapo kuhani anakichunguza hicho kifaa, na kama ukungu umefifia baada ya kuwa umeoshwa, basi atakirarua kile kipande kilichochaufuliwa kutoka kwenye vazi au kutoka kwenye ngozi, au kutoka kwenye chombo kilichosukwa 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.
Ikiwa ukungu unazidi kuonekana katika vazi, ama katika chombo kilichosukwa au kufumwa, au katika kitu chochote kilichotengenezwa kwa ngozi, basi, ukungu utakuwa unasambaa. Kifaa chochote kilicho na ukungu ni lazima kichomwe.
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."
Vazi au kitu chochote kilichosukwa au kufumwa kutokana na sufu, au kitani, au ngozi au kitu chochote kilichotengenezwa kwa ngozi—iwapo unakisafisha kifaa nao ukungu ukawa umetoka, nacho kifaa lazima kisafishwe mara ya pili, kisha 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.
Hii ndiyo sheria ihusuyo ukungu katika vazi la sufu au kitani, au kwenye kitu chochote kilichosukwa au kufumwa kutokana na sufu, au kitani, au kitu chochote kilichotengenewa kwa ngozi, ili kwamba mweze kuvitangaza kuwa safi au najisi.
