< Leviticus 14 >

1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
2 “These are the regulations for anyone who has been healed of a contagious skin disease.
hic est ritus leprosi quando mundandus est adducetur ad sacerdotem
3 The person must be brought to a priest. The priest will take him outside the camp [to where that person has been staying], and examine him. If the skin disease has been healed,
qui egressus e castris cum invenerit lepram esse mundatam
4 the priest will say that someone must bring two living birds that are acceptable to Yahweh, along with some cedar wood, some scarlet/red yarn, and some sprigs of (hyssop/a very leafy plant).
praecipiet ei qui purificatur ut offerat pro se duos passeres vivos quos vesci licitum est et lignum cedrinum vermiculumque et hysopum
5 Then the priest will command that one of the birds be killed while [it is being held] over a clay pot containing water from a spring.
et unum e passeribus immolari iubebit in vase fictili super aquas viventes
6 Then the priest will dip the other bird, along with the cedar wood, the scarlet/red yarn and the hyssop, into the blood of the bird that was killed.
alium autem vivum cum ligno cedrino et cocco et hysopo tinguet in sanguine passeris immolati
7 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood on the person who was healed; he must sprinkle it on him seven times. Then he will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again. And the priest will release the other bird and allow it to fly away.
quo asperget illum qui mundandus est septies ut iure purgetur et dimittet passerem vivum ut in agrum avolet
8 “Then the person who was healed must wash his clothes, shave off all his hair, and bathe. Then he is allowed to return to the camp, but he must stay outside his tent for seven days.
cumque laverit homo vestimenta sua radet omnes pilos corporis et lavabitur aqua purificatusque ingredietur castra ita dumtaxat ut maneat extra tabernaculum suum septem diebus
9 On the seventh day, he must again shave off all his hair, including his beard and his eyebrows. Then he must again wash his clothes and bathe, and then he will be allowed to be with other people again.
et die septimo radat capillos capitis barbamque et supercilia ac totius corporis pilos et lotis rursum vestibus et corpore
10 “The next day that person must bring two male lambs and one female lamb that is one year old, all of them with no defects. He must also bring six quarts/liters of fine flour, mixed with olive oil, to be an offering, and (0.6 pint/0.3 liter) of olive oil.
die octavo adsumet duos agnos inmaculatos et ovem anniculam absque macula et tres decimas similae in sacrificium quae conspersa sit oleo et seorsum olei sextarium
11 The priest who declares that the person’s skin disease is ended must bring that person, and his offerings, to me, Yahweh, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
cumque sacerdos purificans hominem statuerit eum et haec omnia coram Domino in ostio tabernaculi testimonii
12 “Then the priest must take one of the male lambs and lift it up, along with the olive oil, in front of me, to be a guilt offering—[an offering for his being guilty for not giving to me the things that he was required to give me].
tollet agnum et offeret eum pro delicto oleique sextarium et oblatis ante Dominum omnibus
13 Then the priest must slaughter the lamb in the sacred place where the other sacrifices are offered. Like the offering to enable people to be forgiven, this guilt offering is holy, and belongs to the priest.
immolabit agnum ubi immolari solet hostia pro peccato et holocaustum id est in loco sancto sicut enim pro peccato ita et pro delicto ad sacerdotem pertinet hostia sancta sanctorum est
14 The priest must take some of the blood of that animal and pour it on the lobe/tip of the right ear and on the thumb of the right hand and on the big toe of the right foot of the one who has been healed of the skin disease.
adsumensque sacerdos de sanguine hostiae quae immolata est pro delicto ponet super extremum auriculae dextrae eius qui mundatur et super pollices manus dextrae et pedis
15 Then the priest must take some of the olive oil and pour it in the palm of his own left hand.
et de olei sextario mittet in manum suam sinistram
16 Then he must dip the forefinger of his right hand into the oil in his palm, and sprinkle it in front of me seven times.
tinguetque digitum dextrum in eo et asperget septies contra Dominum
17 Then he must put some of the oil that is still in the palm of his hand on the lobe/tip of the right ear and the thumb of the right hand and on the big toe of the right foot of the person who has been healed of the skin disease. He must put it on top of the blood that he has already put on those places.
quod autem reliquum est olei in leva manu fundet super extremum auriculae dextrae eius qui mundatur et super pollices manus ac pedis dextri et super sanguinem qui fusus est pro delicto
18 The remaining oil in his palm must be put on the person’s head, [to indicate that I declare that] the person has been forgiven for having sinned.
et super caput eius
19 “Then the priest must slaughter one of the other two animals, to show that the one who has been healed of the skin disease has been forgiven for having sinned, and that he has become acceptable to Yahweh. Then the priest will slaughter the animal that will be completely burned [on the altar].
rogabitque pro eo coram Domino et faciet sacrificium pro peccato tunc immolabit holocaustum
20 He will also put on the altar the offering of grain, to indicate that the person has been forgiven for having sinned. Then that person will be allowed to be with other people again.
et ponet illud in altari cum libamentis suis et homo rite mundabitur
21 “But if the person who has been healed of a skin disease is poor and cannot afford to bring all those animals, he must take to the priest one male lamb to be lifted up to be an offering for his not giving to me the things that he was required to give me. He must also take two quarts/liters of fine flour mixed with olive oil to be an offering made from grain, (0.6 pint/0.3 liter) of olive oil,
quod si pauper est et non potest manus eius invenire quae dicta sunt adsumet agnum pro delicto ad oblationem ut roget pro eo sacerdos decimamque partem similae conspersae oleo in sacrificium et olei sextarium
22 and two doves or two young pigeons, one for him to be forgiven for the sins he has committed, and one to be completely burned [on the altar].
duosque turtures sive duos pullos columbae quorum sit unus pro peccato et alter in holocaustum
23 “On that same day, that person must take those things to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, to offer them to Yahweh.
offeretque ea die octavo purificationis suae sacerdoti ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino
24 The priest will take the lamb for the offering for that person not giving to me the things that he was required to give me, along with the olive oil, and lift them up in front of me.
qui suscipiens agnum pro delicto et sextarium olei levabit simul
25 Then the priest will slaughter that lamb [and drain some of the blood in a bowl], and take some of that blood and put it on the lobe/tip of the person’s right ear and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.
immolatoque agno de sanguine eius ponet super extremum auriculae dextrae illius qui mundatur et super pollices manus eius ac pedis dextri
26 Then the priest will pour some of the oil into the palm of his left hand,
olei vero partem mittet in manum suam sinistram
27 and with his right forefinger he must sprinkle some of the oil from his palm there in my presence.
in quo tinguens digitum dextrae manus asperget septies contra Dominum
28 He must put some of the oil in his palm on the same places where he put the blood.
tangetque extremum dextrae auriculae illius qui mundatur et pollices manus ac pedis dextri in loco sanguinis qui effusus est pro delicto
29 He must put the rest of the oil that is in his hand on the head of the person who has been healed of a skin disease, to indicate that I have forgiven him for having sinned.
reliquam autem partem olei quae est in sinistra manu mittet super caput purificati ut placet pro eo Dominum
30 Then the priest must sacrifice the doves or the pigeons, whichever that person has brought.
et turturem sive pullum columbae offeret
31 One will be an offering for sin and the other will be completely burned on the altar, along with the offering of grain. By doing that, the priest will declare that the person is no longer guilty for having sinned.
unum pro delicto et alterum in holocaustum cum libamentis suis
32 “Those are the regulations for anyone who has a contagious skin disease and who is poor and cannot afford the usual offerings, in order that he can be with people again.”
hoc est sacrificium leprosi qui habere non potest omnia in emundationem sui
33 Yahweh also said to Aaron and Moses/me,
locutus est Dominus ad Mosen et Aaron dicens
34 “I am about to give you Canaan land to belong to your people permanently. When you enter that land, there will be times when I cause/allow mildew to appear inside one of your houses.
cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan quam ego dabo vobis in possessionem si fuerit plaga leprae in aedibus
35 If that happens, the owner of that house must go to the priest and tell him, ‘There is something in my house that looks like mildew.’
ibit cuius est domus nuntians sacerdoti et dicet quasi plaga leprae videtur mihi esse in domo mea
36 “Then the priest will say to him, ‘Take everything out of the house before I enter the house to examine the mildew. If you do not do that, I will declare that everything in the house is contaminated.’
at ille praecipiet ut efferant universa de domo priusquam ingrediatur eam et videat utrum lepra sit ne inmunda fiant omnia quae in domo sunt intrabitque postea ut consideret domus lepram
37 [After the owner takes everything outside of his house], the priest will go in and inspect the house. If the mildew has caused greenish or reddish spots/depressions on the walls that seem to be deeper than only on the surface of the walls,
et cum viderit in parietibus illius quasi valliculas pallore sive rubore deformes et humiliores superficie reliqua
38 the priest will go outside the house and lock it up for seven days.
egredietur ostium domus et statim claudet eam septem diebus
39 On the seventh day, he must go into the house and inspect it again. If the mildew on the walls has spread,
reversusque die septimo considerabit eam si invenerit crevisse lepram
40 the priest will tell someone to tear out and throw in the dump outside the town all the stones in the walls that have mildew on them.
iubebit erui lapides in quibus lepra est et proici eos extra civitatem in loco inmundo
41 Then the owner must scrape all the walls inside the house, and everything that is scraped off must be thrown into a dump outside the town.
domum autem ipsam radi intrinsecus per circuitum et spargi pulverem rasurae extra urbem in loco inmundo
42 Then the owner must get new/other stones to replace the ones that had mildew on them, and take new clay and plaster [to cover the stones in the walls of] the house.
lapidesque alios reponi pro his qui ablati fuerint et luto alio liniri domum
43 “If the mildew appears again in the house after that is done,
sin autem postquam eruti sunt lapides et pulvis elatus et alia terra lita
44 the priest must go and examine the house again. If the mildew has spread inside the house, it will be clear that the mildew is the kind that destroys [houses], and no one will be allowed to live in it.
ingressus sacerdos viderit reversam lepram et parietes aspersos maculis lepra est perseverans et inmunda domus
45 It must be completely torn down—the stones, the timber and the plaster—and all those things must be thrown into a dump outside the town.
quam statim destruent et lapides eius ac ligna atque universum pulverem proicient extra oppidum in loco inmundo
46 “Anyone who goes into that house while it is locked up will not be allowed to be with other people until sunset of that day.
qui intraverit domum quando clausa est inmundus erit usque ad vesperum
47 Anyone who sleeps in that house or eats in that house [during that time] must wash his clothes.
et qui dormierit in ea et comederit quippiam lavabit vestimenta sua
48 “But when the priest comes to examine the house after it has been plastered, if the mildew has not spread, he shall declare that people may live in it, because the mildew is gone.
quod si introiens sacerdos viderit lepram non crevisse in domo postquam denuo lita est purificabit eam reddita sanitate
49 But before people are allowed to live in it, the priest must take two small birds and some cedar wood and some red/scarlet yarn and some hyssop.
et in purificationem eius sumet duos passeres lignumque cedrinum et vermiculum atque hysopum
50 He must kill one of the birds while [holding it] over a clay pot containing water from a spring.
et immolato uno passere in vase fictili super aquas vivas
51 Then he must take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the red/scarlet yarn, and the other/living bird, and dip them into the blood of the dead bird, and sprinkle some of that blood on the house seven times.
tollet lignum cedrinum et hysopum et coccum et passerem vivum et intinguet omnia in sanguine passeris immolati atque in aquis viventibus et asperget domum septies
52 By doing all those things he will cause the house to be acceptable to be lived in again.
purificabitque eam tam in sanguine passeris quam in aquis viventibus et in passere vivo lignoque cedrino et hysopo atque vermiculo
53 Then he must release the other bird and allow it to fly away. By doing that, he will [finish the ritual for] causing the house to be acceptable for people to live in it again.
cumque dimiserit passerem avolare in agrum libere orabit pro domo et iure mundabitur
54 “Those are the regulations for contagious diseases, for itching sores,
ista est lex omnis leprae et percussurae
55 for mildew [DOU] on clothes or in a house,
leprae vestium et domorum
56 and for swellings, rashes, or bright spots [on sores],
cicatricis et erumpentium papularum lucentis maculae et in varias species coloribus inmutatis
57 to find out whether a person has a contagious disease or not, and whether people will still be permitted to touch their clothing or their house, or not.”
ut possit sciri quo tempore mundum quid vel inmundum sit
