< Leviticus 14 >
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying—
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis, sị,
2 This, shall be the law of the leper, in the day when he is declared clean, —he shall be brought in unto the priest;
“Ndị a bụ usoro iwu gbasara onye ọrịa ekpenta nʼoge a na-eme mmemme ịdị ọcha ya, mgbe e dutere ya bịakwute onye nchụaja.
3 then shall the priest go forth unto the outside of the camp, —and the priest shall take a view, and lo! if the plague of leprosy hath been healed out of the leper;
Onye nchụaja ga-apụ gaa nʼazụ ebe obibi nọdụ nʼebe ahụ lee ya ahụ, ịchọpụta ma ọrịa ekpenta ya ọ laala nʼezie. Ọ bụrụ na ọrịa ya alaala,
4 then shall the priest give command, —and there shall be taken—for him that is to be cleansed—two living clean birds, —and cedar wood, and crimson am hyssop;
onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e weta nnụnụ abụọ dị ndụ, na ụfọdụ osisi sida, na eriri ogho uhie, na hisọp, maka onye ahụ a ga-emere mmemme ịdị ọcha.
5 and the priest shall give command, and one bird shall be slain, —within an earthen vessel over living water:
Onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e gbuo otu nʼime nnụnụ abụọ ahụ nʼelu mmiri e si nʼọdọ mmiri na-asọ asọ kute nke dị nʼime ite aja.
6 as for the living bird, he shall take, it, and the cedar wood and the crimson, and the hyssop, —and shall dip them and the living bird, in the blood of the bird that hath been slain over the living water;
Ọ ga-ewere nnụnụ nke ọzọ dị ndụ, ya na osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na hisọp ahụ, denye ha nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ e gburu nʼelu mmiri ahụ.
7 and shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy, seven times, —and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let go the living bird over the face of the field.
Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-efe ọbara ahụ ugboro asaa nʼahụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site nʼọrịa ekpenta. Ọ ga-ekwupụtakwa na a gwọọla onye ahụ. Emesịa, ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ ka o felaa nʼọhịa.
8 And he that is to be declared clean shall wash his clothes and shave off all his hair, and bathe in water, and be clean, and, afterwards, shall he come into the camp, —and dwell outside his tent, seven days;
“Onye ahụ e mere ka ọ dị ọcha ga-asacha uwe ya, kpụchaa ntutu isi ya, saakwa ahụ ya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-adị ọcha. Emesịa, ọ ga-esoro ndị mmadụ biri nʼobodo. Ma ọ gaghị abanye nʼụlọ nke aka ya tutu ụbọchị asaa agafee.
9 and it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave off all the hair of his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, even all his hair, shall he shave off, —and shall wash his clothes and bathe his flesh in water so shall he be clean.
Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, ọ ga-akpụchapụ ntutu isi ya, na afụọnụ ya, na ikuanya ya, na ajị ndị ọzọ dị ya nʼahụ. Ọ ga-asa uwe ya na ahụ ya niile. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ ya nʼonye dị ọcha.
10 And, on the eighth day, he shall take two he-lambs, without defect, and one ewe-lamb, the choice of its year without defect, —and three-tenths of fine meal for a meal-offering, overflowed with oil, and one log of oil.
“Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ, ọ ga-ewere ebule abụọ na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nne atụrụ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ gbara otu afọ, ya na iri iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma a gwakọtara mmanụ oliv maka aja mkpụrụ ọka, na otu iko mmanụ.
11 And the priest that is cleansing him shall cause the man that is to be cleansed, and those things to stand before Yahweh, at the opening of the tent of meeting.
Onye nchụaja ahụ lere ya ahụ sị na ha dị ọcha, ga-ewere aja ndị a, ha na onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha chee nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
12 And the priest shall take one he-lamb, and bring him near as a guilt-bearer and the log of oil, —and shall wave them as a wave-offering, before Yahweh;
“Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere otu nʼime ụmụ ebule ahụ, na otu iko mmanụ chụọ ya dịka onyinye aja ikpe ọmụma. Ọ ga-efufe ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe.
13 and shall slay the lamb in the place where the sin-bearer and the ascending-sacrifice are slain, in the holy place, —for like the sin-bearer, the guilt-bearer, is the priest’s, most holy, it is.
Ọ ga-egbu nwa ebule ahụ nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ, nʼebe a na-anọ egbu anụ aja mmehie na aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ bụ onye nchụaja ga-ewere anụ aja ikpe ọmụma a, dịka o were nke aja mmehie. Ọ bụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ.
14 Then shall the priest take of the blood of the guilt-bearer, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, —and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot;
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼime ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Ọ ga-etekwa ya nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼelu isi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke ụkwụ aka nri ya.
15 and the priest shall take of the log of oil, —and shall pour it upon the palm of the priest’s left hand,
Emesịa onye nchụaja ga-awụnyetụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
16 and the priest shall dip his right finger [and take] of the oil that is on the palm of his left hand, —and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before Yahweh:
ọ ga-arụnye otu mkpịsịaka nri ya nʼime mmanụ dị nʼọbụaka ya, ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka ya fesa ụfọdụ nʼime ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
17 and of the remainder of the oil which is on the palm of his hand, shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, —upon the blood of the guilt-bearer;
Onye nchụaja ga-ewere mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼọbụaka ya tee ya onye ahụ nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya, nʼelu ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ mee.
18 and that which remaineth of the oil that is on the palm of the priest’s hand, he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him, before Yahweh.
Ọ ga-ete mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼaka ya, nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
19 Then shall the priest offer the sin-bearer, and shall put a propitiatory-covering over him that is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness, —and, afterwards, shall he slay the ascending-sacrifice.
“Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-achụ aja mmehie, kpuchiere onye ahụ a ga-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site na-adịghị ọcha ha mmehie ya. Emesịa, onye nchụaja ga-egbu aja nsure ọkụ ahụ,
20 And the priest shall cause the ascending-sacrifice, and the meal-offering to ascend at the altar, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him, and he shall be clean.
were ya na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka chụọrọ onye ahụ aja, maka ikpuchiri ya mmehie ya. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ onye ahụ nʼonye dị ọcha.
21 But if he be poor and his hand hath not enough, then shall he take one he-lamb as a guilt-bearer to be waved to put a propitiatory-covering over him, —and one-tenth of fine meal, overflowed with oil for a meal-offering, and a log of oil,
“Ọ bụrụ na ọ bụ ogbenye onye na-enweghị ike iweta ihe ndị a, ha aghaghị iwere otu nwa ebule dịka aja ikpe ọmụma nke a ga-efufe nʼihi aja ikpuchi mmehie ha, Ọ ga-ewetakwa iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma asaa maọbụ ihe ọtụtụ efaa a gwara mmanụ oliv dịka aja mkpụrụ ọka, ya na otu iko mmanụ.
22 and two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, for which his hand hath enough, —so shall one be a sin-bearer, and the other an ascending-sacrifice.
Ọ ga-ewetakwa nduru abụọ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta. Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ.
23 And he shall bring them in on the eighth day, for his cleansing, unto the priest, —unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, before Yahweh.
“Ọ ga-ewere ha nye onye nchụaja nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ya, maka ime ka ha dị ọcha.
24 Then shall the priest take the guilt-bearing lamb and the log of oil, —and the priest shall wave them as a wave-offering, before Yahweh.
Onye nchụaja ga-ewerekwa nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, ya na otu iko mmanụ oliv ahụ, fufee ha nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị.
25 Then shall the guilt-bearing lamb be slain, and the priest shall take of the blood of the guilt-bearer, and put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, —and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot;
Ọ ga-egbu nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, were ụfọdụ ọbara ya tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
26 also of the oil, shall the priest pour out, —on the palm of his own left hand;
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-awụnye ụfọdụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
27 and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger, of the oil that is on the palm of his left hand, —seven times, before Yahweh;
ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka nri ya fesa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ nke dị nʼọbụaka ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
28 then shall the priest put, of the oil that is on the palm of his hand, upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, —upon the place of the blood of the guilt-offering;
Ọ ga-etekwa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ dị nʼaka ya nʼebe ndị ahụ o tere ọbara ikpe ọmụma ahụ, nke bụ nʼọnụ ntị onye ahụ nke a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
29 and that which remaineth of the oil which is on the palm of the priest’s hand, shall he put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, —to put a propitiatory-covering over him before Yahweh.
Mmanụ nke fọdụrụ nʼaka ya ka onye nchụaja ga-ete nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, ikpuchi mmehie ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
30 Then shall he offer one of the turtle-doves, or of the young pigeons, —of that for which his hand hath enough;
Emesịa, ọ ga-eji nduru abụọ ahụ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ ahụ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta, chụọ aja.
31 even that for which his hand hath enough, —the one as a sin-bearer and the other as an ascending-sacrifice, upon the meal-offering, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him that is to be cleansed before Yahweh.
Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ, ha na aja mkpụrụ ọka. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchiri ya mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, bụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha.”
32 This is the law for him in whom hath been the plague of leprosy, whose hand hath not enough for that which pertaineth to his cleansing.
Ndị a bụ usoro iwu dịrị onye ọbụla e sitere nʼọrịa ekpenta mee ka ọ dị ọcha, onye aka ya na-erughị iweta ihe o kwesiri iweta, bụ nke e ji eme ka ọ dị ọcha.
33 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying:
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,
34 When ye enter into the land of Canaan which I am about to give you for a possession, —and I put a plague-mark of leprosy in a house, of the land of your possession,
“Mgbe unu banyere ala Kenan, bụ ala ahụ m na-enye unu, ọ bụrụ na o nwee ụlọ ọbụla m webatara ọrịa na-efe efe,
35 then shall he that owneth the house come in, and tell the priest, saying, —A kind of plague-mark, appeareth to me in the house;
onyenwe ụlọ ahụ ga-ejekwuru onye nchụaja sị ya, ‘Ahụla m ihe yiri ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ m.’
36 and the priest shall give command, and they shall empty the house, ere yet the priest cometh in to view the mark, so that he do not pronounce unclean all that is in the house, —and, after this, shall the priest come in to view the house:
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-enye iwu ka a kwapụsịa ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ tupu ọ gaa lezie ụlọ ahụ anya, ka ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ ghara ịbụ ihe rụrụ arụ, ma ọ bụrụ na achọpụta ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ ahụ. Mgbe a kwapụtasịrị ihe dị nʼụlọ ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-aga lee ụlọ ahụ.
37 then shall he view the mark and lo! if the mark is in the walls of the house, with sunken places greenish yellow or reddish, —and they appear to be lower than the [surface of the] wall,
Ọ ga-ele ntụpọ dị nʼahụ ụlọ ahụ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ na-acha ahịhịa ndụ ahịhịa ndụ, maọbụ ọbara ọbara, ọ bụrụkwa na ha miri emi karịa aja ụlọ ahụ nʼile anya,
38 then shall the priest come forth out of the house, unto the entrance of the house, —and shall shut up the house seven days;
onye nchụaja ga-esi nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ahụ pụọ, kpọchie ụlọ ahụ ụbọchị asaa.
39 and the priest shall return on the seventh day, —and take a view, and lo! if the mark hath spread in the walls of the house,
Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-alọghachi bịa lee ụlọ ahụ ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala nʼaja ụlọ ahụ,
40 then shall the priest give command, and they shall pull out the stones, wherein is the mark, —and cast them forth outside the city, into an unclean place;
onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e tida akụkụ aja ụlọ ahụ bufuo ya nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
41 and, the house itself, shall he cause to be scraped on the inside round about, —and they shall pour out the mortar which they have scraped off, outside the city, into an unclean place;
Ọ ga-enyekwa iwu ka a kpụchaa aja ụlọ niile dị nʼime ụlọ ahụ, bufukwaa aja niile a kpụchapụtara nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
42 and shall take other stones, and put in the place of the stones, —and, other mortar, shall he take and plaster the house.
A ga-ebute nkume ọzọ jiri ha dochie ndị ahụ e bupụsịrị. A ga-ejikwa ụrọ ọhụrụ tee ụlọ ahụ ọzọ.
43 But if the mark again breaketh out in the house, after the taking out of the stones, —and after the scraping of the house and after the plastering;
“Ma ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ apụta ọzọ, mgbe e bupụsịrị nkume ndị ahụ, ma mgbe a kpuchasịrị aja ụlọ ma techikwaa ya,
44 then shall the priest come in, and take a view, and lo! if the mark hath spread in the house, a fretting leprosy, it is in the house unclean, it is,
onye nchụaja ga-abịa lee ya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ hụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala ọzọ, ọ ga-agụ ụlọ ahụ dịka ihe rụrụ arụ, nʼihi na ntụpọ ahụ bụ ọrịa na-efe efe.
45 and he shall pull down the house, —the stones thereof, and the timber thereof and all the mortar of the house, —and shall carry them forth outside the city, into an unclean place.
Ọ ga-enye iwu ka a kwatuo ụlọ ahụ bufukwaa ihe niile e jiri rụọ ya, nkume niile, osisi niile na ụrọ niile, nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
46 And as for him that entereth into the house, all the days it is shut up, he shall be unclean until the evening;
“Onye ọbụla banyere nʼụlọ ahụ nʼoge e mechiri ya, ga-abụ onye rụrụ arụ ruo nʼoge uhuruchi.
47 And, he that lieth in the house, shall wash his clothes, and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
Onye ọbụla dinara ala maọbụ rie nri nʼime ya, ga-asacha uwe ya.
48 But, though the priest do come, into the house, and take a view, yet lo! if the plague-mark hath not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then shall the priest pronounce the house clean, for, healed, is the plague.
“Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja abịa hụ na ntụpọ ahụ apụtaghị ọzọ, mgbe e techara ụlọ ahụ ụrọ nke ugboro abụọ, ọ ga-agụ ya nʼụlọ dị ọcha, nʼihi na ọrịa ahụ na-efe efe alaala.
49 Then shall he take to cleanse, the house, two birds, —and cedar wood, and crimson, and hyssop;
Ọ ga-ejikwa nnụnụ abụọ, na osisi sida, na ogho uhie, na osisi hisọp mee mmemme ido ihe ọcha.
50 and shall kill one bird, —within an earthen vessel over living water;
Ọ ga-egbu otu nʼime nnụnụ ndị ahụ nʼelu mmiri e si nʼiyi na-asọ asọ kute, nke dị nʼime ite aja.
51 and take the cedar wood and the hyssop, and the crimson and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the living water, —and sprinkle the house seven times;
Ọ ga-edenye osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na osisi hisọp ahụ, nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ na mmiri ahụ. Ọ ga-efesa ọbara ahụ nʼụlọ ahụ ugboro asaa.
52 and so cleanse the house, with the blood of the bird and with the living water, —and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood and with the hyssop, and with the crimson;
Ọ bụ ọbara nnụnụ ahụ, na mmiri ahụ, na nnụnụ nke ọzọ ahụ dị ndụ, na osisi sida ahụ na hisọp ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ ka ọ ga-eji mee ka ụlọ ahụ dị ọcha.
53 and shall let go the living bird unto the outside of the city, unto the face of the field, —so shall he put a propitiatory-covering over the house and it shall be clean.
Ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ dị ndụ ka o fepụ felaa nʼọhịa dị nʼazụ obodo. Nke a ga-abụ otu e si kpuchiere ụlọ ahụ mmehie ya. Ọ ga-adịkwa ọcha.”
54 This, is the law, —for every plague-mark of leprosy and for scall;
Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ọrịa ekpenta, na ọkọ,
55 and for garment leprosy, and for house [leprosy];
na ọrịa na-efe efe dị nʼuwe maọbụ nʼụlọ,
56 and for rising, and for scab and for a bright spot;
maọbụ etuto, maọbụ ntụpọ, maọbụ ọnya.
57 to give instruction, on the day of declaring unclean, and on the day of declaring clean, —This is the law of leprosy.
Iwu ndị a ga-enye aka ịmata ihe rụrụ arụ maọbụ ihe na-adịghị ọcha. Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ọrịa ekpenta na ọrịa na-efe efe.
