< Leviticus 13 >

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,
Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron bena,
2 'When a man hath in the skin of his flesh a rising, or scab, or bright spot, and it hath become in the skin of his flesh a leprous plague, then he hath been brought in unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests;
“Ne ame aɖe kpɔ nutete alo dzi alo teƒe aɖe si fu le eƒe ŋutilã ŋu si ate ŋu azu ŋutilã ƒe dɔxɔleameŋu la, woakplɔe ayi nunɔla Aron alo Via ŋutsu siwo nye nunɔlawo la dometɔ ɖeka gbɔ.
3 and the priest hath seen the plague in the skin of the flesh, and the hair in the plague hath turned white, and the appearance of the plague [is] deeper than the skin of his flesh — it [is] a plague of leprosy, and the priest hath seen him, and hath pronounced him unclean.
Nunɔla la alé ŋku ɖe abi si le eƒe ŋutigbalẽ ŋu la ŋu. Ne ŋutifu si le teƒea fu, eye teƒea nye ɖe eme vie la, ekema anyie. Nunɔla la atso nya me be anyidzela la ŋu mekɔ o.
4 'And if the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and its hair hath not turned white, then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague seven days.
Ke ne teƒe si fu kpii la menye ɖe eme vie o, eye fu si le teƒea mefu o la, ekema nunɔla la aɖee ɖe aga ŋkeke adre.
5 'And the priest hath seen him on the seventh day, and lo, the plague hath stood in his eyes, the plague hath not spread in the skin, and the priest hath shut him up a second seven days.
Le ŋkeke adrea gbe la, nunɔla la agadoe akpɔ. Ne teƒea metrɔ o, eye megakeke ɖe edzi hã o la, ekema nunɔla la aɖee ɖe aga ŋkeke adre bubu.
6 'And the priest hath seen him on the second seventh day, and lo, the plague is become weak, and the plague hath not spread in the skin — and the priest hath pronounced him clean, it [is] a scab, and he hath washed his garments, and hath been clean.
Nunɔla la agadoe akpɔ le ŋkeke adre evelia gbe. Ne dɔléle la dzi ka ɖe, eye teƒea megakeke ɖe edzi o la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be amea ŋuti kɔ, dzi koe ƒo ɖe eŋu. Nu si amea awɔ la koe nye wòanya eƒe awuwo, eye eƒe ŋuti akɔ,
7 'And if the scab spread greatly in the skin, after his being seen by the priest for his cleansing, then he hath been seen a second time by the priest;
gake nenye be dzi la keke ɖe edzi le eƒe ŋutigbalẽ ŋu esi wòtsɔ eɖokui fia nunɔla la be wòagblɔ be eŋuti kɔ vɔ megbe la, ele nɛ be wòagbugbɔ ayi nunɔla la gbɔ.
8 and the priest hath seen, and lo, the scab hath spread in the skin, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] leprosy.
Eye nunɔla la agadoe kpɔ. Ne teƒea keke ɖe edzi la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋuti mekɔ o, kpodɔe wòdze.
9 'When a plague of leprosy is in a man, then he hath been brought in unto the priest,
“Ne ame aɖe dze ŋutigbalẽdɔ si woate ŋu axɔ le ame ŋu la, woakplɔe ayi nunɔla gbɔe.
10 and the priest hath seen, and lo, a white rising in the skin, and it hath turned the hair white, and a quickening of raw flesh [is] in the rising, —
Nunɔla la alé ŋku ɖe eŋu eye ne nutete ɣi aɖe le eƒe ŋutilã ŋu la,
11 an old leprosy it [is] in the skin of his flesh, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; he doth not shut him up, for he [is] unclean.
ekema eme kɔ ƒãa be anyie, eye nunɔla la naɖe gbeƒã be eŋu mekɔ o. Mele be woagatu amea ɖe xɔ me be woagalé ŋku ɖe eŋu o, elabena eme kɔ ƒãa be edze dɔ la.
12 'And if the leprosy break out greatly in the skin, and the leprosy hath covered all the skin of [him who hath] the plague, from his head even unto his feet, to all that appeareth to the eyes of the priest,
“Ke ne nunɔla la kpɔ be kpodɔ la xɔ ŋuti katã na amea, tso eƒe tame yi eƒe afɔ gbɔ,
13 then hath the priest seen, and lo, the leprosy hath covered all his flesh, and he hath pronounced [him who hath] the plague clean; it hath all turned white; he [is] clean.
kple afi sia afi si wòakpɔ ɖa le la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋuti kɔ, nenye be eŋuti katã fu kpii la, ekema eŋuti kɔ le se la nu.
14 'And in the day of raw flesh being seen in him he is unclean;
Ke ne eƒe ŋutilã ƒe teƒe aɖe ƒlɔ la, ekema efia be edze kpodɔ.
15 and the priest hath seen the raw flesh, and hath pronounced him unclean; the raw flesh is unclean, it [is] leprosy.
Nunɔla la agalé ŋku ɖe eŋu, eye ne ekpɔ be eƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa aɖe ƒlɔ la, ekema aɖe gbeƒã be ame la dze kpodɔ. Ŋutilã ƒe ƒɔƒlɔ fia be amea le kpodɔ lém, eya ta eŋuti mekɔ o.
16 Or when the raw flesh turneth back, and hath been turned to white, then he hath come in unto the priest,
Gake ne ŋutilã ƒe akpa si ƒlɔ la ɖɔ ɖo, eye wòle abe ŋutilãa ƒe akpa bubuawo ene la, ame la atrɔ ayi ɖe nunɔla la gbɔ,
17 and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the plague hath been turned to white, and the priest hath pronounced clean [him who hath] the plague; he [is] clean.
eye nunɔla la agadoe akpɔ. Nenye be teƒe ƒɔƒlɔ la ɖɔ ɖo abe ŋutilãa ƒe akpa bubuwo ene la, ekema eŋuti kɔ le se la nu, eye nunɔla la aɖe gbeƒã be eŋuti kɔ.
18 'And when flesh hath in it, in its skin, an ulcer, and it hath been healed,
“Ne ƒoƒoe ƒo ame aɖe ƒe ŋutigbalẽ, wòɖi tsi vɔ,
19 and there hath been in the place of the ulcer a white rising, or a bright white spot, very red, then it hath been seen by the priest,
eye le teƒe si ƒoƒoe la ƒo nɛ nu ƒoƒoe wuliwuli aɖewo ƒo ɖi esiwo le ɣie alo le nu dzĩ kple nu ɣi dome la, ele nɛ be wòatsɔ eɖokui afia nunɔlaa.
20 and the priest hath seen, and lo, its appearance [is] lower than the skin, and its hair hath turned white, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy — in an ulcer it hath broken out.
Ne nunɔla la doe kpɔ, eye wòkpɔ be dɔléle la tso keke eƒe lãme, ke eye fu si le teƒea fu kpii la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be, eŋuti mekɔ o, elabena edze kpodɔ to ƒoƒoe la teƒe.
21 'And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair in it, and it is not lower than the skin, and is become weak, then hath the priest shut him up seven days;
Ke ne nunɔla la kpɔ be fu ɣi aɖeke mele teƒea o, eye teƒea hã menye ɖe eme o, ke teƒea le fufu kple nyɔnyɔ dome la, ekema nunɔla la aɖee ɖe aga ŋkeke adre.
22 and if it spread greatly in the skin, then hath the priest pronounced him unclean, it [is] a plague;
Ne teƒea keke ɖe edzi le ŋkeke adre mawo me la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋuti mekɔ o, ezu kpodɔléla.
23 and if in its place the bright spot stay — it hath not spread — it [is] an inflammation of the ulcer; and the priest hath pronounced him clean.
Ke ne teƒea mekeke ɖe edzi o la, ekema ƒoƒoe la ƒe abiteƒe koe. Nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋuti kɔ.
24 'Or when flesh hath in its skin a fiery burning, and the quickening of the burning, the bright white spot, hath been very red or white,
“Ne dzo me ame aɖe ƒe ŋutigbalẽ, eye emegbe teƒea biã loo alo le biabiã kple fufu dome alo fu kpii le teƒe si dzoa me na amea la,
25 and the priest hath seen it, and lo, the hair hath turned white in the bright spot, and its appearance [is] deeper than the skin; leprosy it [is], in the burning it hath broken out, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy.
ele be nunɔla la nalé ŋku ɖe teƒea ŋu. Ne fu si le teƒea fu, eye wòdze abe dɔléle la tso amea ƒe lãme ke ene la, ekema woanya be amea dze kpodɔ to dzobi la teƒe, eye nunɔla la aɖe gbeƒã be eŋuti mekɔ o, edze anyi.
26 'And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair on the bright spot, and it is not lower than the skin, and it is become weak, then the priest hath shut him up seven days;
Ke ne nunɔla la kpɔ be fu ɣi aɖeke mele teƒea o, teƒea ƒe biabia metso amea ƒe lãme ke o, eye eƒe amadede dzi nɔ ɖeɖem kpɔtɔ la, ekema nunɔla la atui ɖe xɔ me ŋkeke adre,
27 and the priest hath seen him on the seventh day, if it spread greatly in the skin, then the priest hath pronounced him unclean; a plague of leprosy it [is].
eye wòagadoe kpɔ le ŋkeke adrea gbe. Ne teƒea keke ɖe edzi la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋu mekɔ o, edze kpodɔ.
28 'And if the bright spot stay in its place, it hath not spread in the skin, and is become weak; a rising of the burning it [is], and the priest hath pronounced him clean; for it [is] inflammation of the burning.
Ke ne teƒe biabiã la medze le teƒe bubu aɖeke loo alo keke ɖe edzi o, eye eƒe biabiã dzi ɖe kpɔtɔ la, ekema wòanya be dzobi la ƒe abiteƒe koe. Ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be eŋuti kɔ, dzobi la teƒe koe ɖi atse.
29 'And when a man (or a woman) hath in him a plague in the head or in the beard,
“Ne ŋutsu alo nyɔnu aɖe dze abi ɖe ta alo glã la,
30 then hath the priest seen the plague, and lo, its appearance is deeper than the skin, and in it a thin shining hair, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a scall — it [is] a leprosy of the head or of the beard.
nunɔla alé ŋku ɖe abi la ŋu. Ne abi la teƒe dze abe ɖe wòde eme wu amea ƒe ŋutilã, ɖa si le afi ma ƒe amadede le abe aŋutiɖiɖi ene, eye wòle belie la, nunɔla la aɖe gbeƒã be amea ŋuti mekɔ o; enye ta alo glã ƒe dɔléle.
31 'And when the priest seeth the plague of the scall, and lo, its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague of the scall seven days.
Ke ne nunɔla la kpɔ be ŋutigbalẽ la ŋuti ko abi la dzɔ tso, eye ɖa yibɔ le abia me la, ekema atui ɖe xɔ me ŋkeke adre,
32 'And the priest hath seen the plague on the seventh day, and lo, the scall hath not spread, and a shining hair hath not been in it, and the appearance of the scall is not deeper than the skin,
eye wòagadoe kpɔ le ŋkeke adrea gbe. Ne teƒe la mekeke ɖe edzi o, ne fu si le afi ma ƒe amadede meɖi aŋuti ɖiɖi tɔ o, eye ne medze be dɔléle aɖee tso eƒe lãme ke o la,
33 then he hath shaved himself, but the scall he doth not shave; and the priest hath shut up [him who hath] the scall a second seven days.
ekema nunɔla la aƒlɔ ɖa, aƒo xlã teƒe la, ke menye le teƒea ŋutɔ o. Nunɔla la agatui ɖe xɔ me ŋkeke adre bubu,
34 And the priest hath seen the scall on the seventh day, and lo, the scall hath not spread in the skin, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and the priest hath pronounced him clean, and he hath washed his garments, and hath been clean.
eye wòagadoe kpɔ le ŋkeke adrea gbe. Ne teƒe la mekeke ɖe edzi o, eye medze abe dɔléle la tso ŋutigbalẽ la te o ene la, ekema nunɔla la atso nya me be medze kpodɔ o. Ekema ne enya eƒe awuwo ko la, eŋuti kɔ.
35 'And if the scall spread greatly in the skin after his cleansing,
Ke ne teƒe la de asi keke me ɖe edzi emegbe la,
36 and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the scall hath spread in the skin, the priest seeketh not for the shining hair, he is unclean;
ekema nunɔla la agadoe kpɔ, eye magalala be yeakpɔ be ɖa ƒe amadede trɔ ɖi aŋuti ɖiɖi hafi wòatso nya me be amea dze kpodɔ o.
37 and if in his eyes the scall hath stayed, and black hair hath sprung up in it, the scall hath been healed — he [is] clean — and the priest hath pronounced him clean.
Gake ne edze be teƒe la megale kekem ɖe edzi o, eye ɖa yibɔ le teƒea la, ekema dɔléle la nu tso, amea menye kpodɔléla o, eya ta nunɔla la atso nya me be eƒe ŋuti kɔ.
38 'And when a man or woman hath in the skin of their flesh bright spots, white bright spots,
“Ne ŋutsu aɖe alo nyɔnu aɖe ƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa aɖewo fu kpii,
39 and the priest hath seen, and lo, in the skin of their flesh white weak bright spots, it [is] a freckled spot broken out in the skin; he [is] clean.
eye teƒe la ƒe fufu dzi le ɖeɖem kpɔtɔ la, ekema amea medze anyi o, ke boŋ dɔléle aɖe koe ƒo ɖe eŋu.
40 'And when a man's head [is] polished, he [is] bald, he [is] clean;
“Womatsɔ ame aɖeke ƒe ɖa ƒe bebe le ta nɛ abe anyidzedze ene o!
41 and if from the corner of his face his head is polished, he [is] bald of the forehead; he [is] clean.
Ne ɖa vɔ le ame aɖe ƒe ŋgonu la, ekema amea ƒe ŋgoe kpã: esia menye anyidzedze o.
42 'And when there is in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, a very red white plague, it [is] a leprosy breaking out in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead;
Ke ne teƒe aɖe le biabiã kple fufu dome le ta kpakpã la teƒe la, ekema anye kpodɔ dzem wòle.
43 and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the rising of the very red white plague in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, [is] as the appearance of leprosy, in the skin of the flesh,
Ekema nunɔla la adoe akpɔ. Ne teƒe la le kpokploo, mebiã tututu o, eye mefu tututu abe kpodɔ ƒe dzesi ene o hã la,
44 he [is] a leprous man, he [is] unclean; the priest doth pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague [is] in his head.

45 'As to the leper in whom [is] the plague, his garments are rent, and his head is uncovered, and he covereth over the upper lip, and 'Unclean! unclean!' he calleth;
“Ele na ame si wokpɔ be edze kpodɔ la be wòadze eƒe awuwo, ana eƒe taɖa nato ʋutuu, wòatsyɔ nu eƒe nuyi dziƒotɔ dzi, eye wòanɔ yiyim anɔ ɣli dom be, ‘Nye ŋuti mekɔ o, nye ŋuti mekɔ o!’
46 all the days that the plague [is] in him he is unclean; he [is] unclean, alone he doth dwell, at the outside of the camp [is] his dwelling.
Ŋkeke ale si dɔléle la le eŋu ko la, eŋuti mekɔ o. Ele be wòanɔ asaɖa la godo.”
47 'And when there is in any garment a plague of leprosy, — in a garment of wool, or in a garment of linen,
“Ne nane dze le nudodo alo nutata aɖe me, eɖanye lãfu tɔ alo ɖeti tɔ,
48 or in the warp, or in the woof, of linen or of wool, or in a skin, or in any work of skin,

49 and the plague hath been very green or very red in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin, it [is] a plague of leprosy, and it hath been shewn the priest.
eye aŋgbamu alo ama dzĩ teƒe aɖe le eme la, anye kpodɔ. Ekema woatsɔ nu la ayi na nunɔla wòadoe akpɔ.
50 'And the priest hath seen the plague, and hath shut up [that which hath] the plague, seven days;
Nunɔla la atsɔ nu la adzra ɖo ŋkeke adre,
51 and he hath seen the plague on the seventh day, and the plague hath spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, of all that is made of skin for work; the plague [is] a fretting leprosy, it [is] unclean.
eye wòagalé ŋku ɖe eŋu le ŋkeke adrea gbe. Ne teƒe la keke ɖe edzi la, ekema kpodɔ si woate ŋu axɔ lae.
52 'And he hath burnt the garment, or the warp, or the woof, in wool or in linen, or any vessel of skin in which the plague is; for it [is] a fretting leprosy; with fire it is burnt.
Ekema ele be nunɔla la natɔ dzo awu la, avɔ la alo nu si wolɔ̃ kple lãfu, ɖeti alo lãgbalẽ la, elabena woate ŋu axɔ kpodɔ la, eya ta ele be woatɔ dzoe.
53 'And if the priest see, and lo, the plague hath not spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin,
“Ke ne nunɔla la lé ŋku ɖe eŋu le ŋkeke adrea gbe, eye wòkpɔ be teƒe la mekeke ɖe edzi o la,
54 then hath the priest commanded, and they have washed that in which the plague [is], and he hath shut it up a second seven days.
ekema ana woanya alo aklɔ nu la, eye wòatsɔe adzra ɖo ŋkeke adre.
55 And the priest hath seen [that which hath] the plague after it hath been washed, and lo, the plague hath not changed its aspect, and the plague hath not spread, — it [is] unclean; with fire thou dost burn it; it [is] a fretting in its back-part or in its front-part.
Le ŋkeke adrea megbe, ne teƒe la ƒe amadede metrɔ o, togbɔ be teƒe la mekeke ɖe edzi o hã la, efia be kpodɔe, eya ta ele be woatɔ dzoe, elabena kpodɔ le eme.
56 'And if the priest hath seen, and lo, the plague [is] become weak after it hath been washed, then he hath rent it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof;
Ne nunɔla la kpɔ be teƒe la ƒe amadede klo le nua nyanya megbe la, ekema alã teƒe la ɖa le avɔ la, lãgbalẽnu alo nu lɔlɔ̃ la me.
57 and if it still be seen in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin, it [is] a fretting; with fire thou dost burn it — that in which the plague [is].
Ke ne wogakpɔ dzesi ma le nu lɔlɔ̃a me la, ekema kpodɔe: ele be nunɔla la natɔ dzoe.
58 'And the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or any vessel of skin which thou dost wash when the plague hath turned aside from them, then it hath been washed a second time, and hath been clean.
Ke ne dzesi ma megadze le nu lɔlɔ̃a nyanya vɔ megbe o la, woaganyae, eye woagate ŋu awɔ eŋu dɔ azɔ.”
59 'This [is] the law of a plague of leprosy [in] a garment of wool or of linen, or of the warp or of the woof, or of any vessel of skin, to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean.'
