Leviticus 13
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ,
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;
“Sɛ obi hunu sɛ biribi ahono ne honam ani, anaa pɔmpɔ anaa sowanini asi no na adidi kɔ ne honam mu a, ɔnhunu sɛ ɛyɛ kwata. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa onipa no kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron anaa ne mmammarima no mu baako
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.
na ɔhwɛ ahonoeɛ no. Sɛ enwi a ɛsi ahonoeɛ hɔ dane yɛ fitaa na ahonoeɛ no atɔ honam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no da no adi sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no yɛ ɔkwatani.
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.
Na sɛ ahonoeɛ no ntɔɔ honam no mu na sɛ ahonoeɛ hɔ nwi no nso nyɛɛ fitaa a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no yi ɔyarefoɔ no firi nnipa mu nnanson.
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.
Nnanson no duru a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no bio na sɛ ahonoeɛ no nsesaeɛ na ɛntrɛtrɛɛ honam no ani a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsane atwa no asuo nnanson bio.
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.
Afei ne nnanson so no, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ ne honam ani bio, na sɛ ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no ano abrɛ ase a ɛntrɛtrɛɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛka ato dwa sɛ, ɔyarefoɔ no ho atɔ no; ɔbɛkyerɛ mu sɛ ɛyɛ nsawa bi na ɛguu no berɛ tiawa bi mu. Enti sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no si ne ntoma a wɔbɛfa no sɛ wanya ayaresa awie.
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;
Na sɛ nso ɔyarefoɔ no ba ɔsɔfoɔ no nkyɛn ma ɔhwɛ no na yadeɛ no atrɛtrɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsane ba ɔsɔfoɔ no nkyɛn bio
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.
na ɔhwɛ no na sɛ yadeɛ no atrɛtrɛ ɔhonam no ani a, afei, ɔbɛpae mu aka sɛ amanneɛ kwan so no, ne ho nte na ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ.
9 'When a plague of leprosy is in a man, then he hath been brought in unto the priest,
“Sɛ obi nya ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔhwɛ no.
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, —
Sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ nwi no bi ayɛ fitaa na ekuro atɔ saa beaeɛ hɔ a,
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.
na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ, na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no de to dwa sɛ amanneɛ kwan so no, onipa no ho nte. Ɛba saa a, wɔnhwehwɛ yadeɛ no mu bio, ɛfiri sɛ ɛda adi pefee sɛ honam no ayɛ kwata.
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,
“Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ kwata no adidi ne honam nyinaa firi ne tiri so kɔsi ne nan ase nyinaa a,
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.
ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ne ho te, ɛfiri sɛ, ne honam nyinaa adane ayɛ fitaa.
14 'And in the day of raw flesh being seen in him he is unclean;
Na sɛ akuro no bi pue ne honam no baabi foforɔ a, wɔbɛpae mu ka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.
15 and the priest hath seen the raw flesh, and hath pronounced him unclean; the raw flesh is unclean, it [is] leprosy.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka ntɛm ara a ɔhunu ekuro wɔ honam no fa baabi, ɛfiri sɛ akuro no kyerɛ sɛ kwata wɔ honam no mu.
16 Or when the raw flesh turneth back, and hath been turned to white, then he hath come in unto the priest,
Na sɛ akuro no wu na ɛdane yɛ fitaa sɛ honam a aka no a, ɔkwatani no bɛkɔ ɔsɔfoɔ no hɔ bio.
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.
Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ honam no fa hɔ ayɛ fitaa deɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ne ho atɔ no.
18 'And when flesh hath in it, in its skin, an ulcer, and it hath been healed,
“Sɛ pɔmpɔ si obi na ɛgyae
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,
na sɛ baabi a pɔmpɔ no siiɛ no biribi hyɛnn, bi anaa deɛ ɛbere kakra hono wɔ hɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.
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.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na yadeɛ no adidi kɔ ne honam mu na enwi a ɛwɔ honam no hɔ no ayɛ fitaa a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no ho nte, ɛfiri sɛ, kwata apue afiri pɔmpɔ no mu.
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;
Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ enwi fitaa biara nni baabi a yadeɛ no wɔ hɔ no, na yadeɛ no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na ahosuo no yɛ nsonso a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson.
22 and if it spread greatly in the skin, then hath the priest pronounced him unclean, it [is] a plague;
Saa ɛberɛ no mu sɛ beaeɛ hɔ no trɛtrɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.
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.
Na sɛ beaeɛ a ɛhɔ ayɛ hyɛnn no anhono bio na antrɛtrɛ a, na ɛyɛ pɔmpɔ no twa kɛkɛ enti ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ, ne ho te.
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,
“Sɛ obi hyehye na sɛ nhyehyeeɛ no mu yɛ kɔkɔɔ ne fitaa anaa fitaa a,
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.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ nhyehyeeɛ hɔ. Sɛ nwi a ɛwɔ beaeɛ a ɛhɔ nnii dɛm biara no dane yɛ fitaa na sɛ ɛyɛ adeɛ a adidi kɔ honam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata na apue afiri nhyehyeeɛ no mu, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.
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;
Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ hunu sɛ nwi fitaa nni beaeɛ a ɛhɔ yɛ hyɛnn no, na sɛ hyɛnn no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na yadeɛ no regyae a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson
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].
na wahwɛ no bio ne nnanson so. Sɛ yadeɛ no trɛ fa ɔhonam no ani a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ kwata ayɛ onipa no.
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.
Nanso sɛ honam no fa hɔ a ayɛ hyɛnn no antrɛtrɛ honam no ani, na sɛ ɛyɛ sɛ deɛ ɛhɔ retwintwam no a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ nhyehyeeɛ twa bi, enti ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛda no adi sɛ ɔnyare kwata.
29 'And when a man (or a woman) hath in him a plague in the head or in the beard,
“Sɛ ekuro da ɔbarima anaa ɔbaa bi tirim anaa nʼafono ho a,
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.
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ; sɛ ɔhwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no adidi kɔ honam no mu na ɔsane hunu enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ wɔ ekuro no mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔpae mu ka sɛ onipa no yare kwata.
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.
Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na mmom, ɛwɔ honam no ani a enwi tuntum wɔ mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi onipa no firi nnipa mu nnanson,
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,
na ne nnanson so no, wɔsane hwɛ no bio. Sɛ yadeɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ na enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ nnaa ne ho adi wɔ mu na ɛnnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu a,
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.
ɔbɛwerɛ enwi a atwa ekuro no ho ahyia nyinaa (na mmom ɛnyɛ ekuro no mu ankasa) na ɔsɔfoɔ no ayi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson bio.
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.
Ne nnanson so, ɔbɛsane ahwɛ no bio na sɛ yadeɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ, nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ onipa no ho ate na sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma wie a, na afei wadi mu.
35 'And if the scall spread greatly in the skin after his cleansing,
Na sɛ akyire no saa yadeɛ no trɛtrɛ a,
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;
ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ no bio a ɔnhwɛ sɛ enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ fra yadeɛ no mu na ɔpae mu ka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.
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.
Na sɛ yadeɛ no trɛ a ɛretrɛtrɛ no gyae na sɛ enwi tuntum fu wɔ beaeɛ hɔ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ne ho atɔ no a kwata biara nni ne ho enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ, ne ho ate.
38 'And when a man or woman hath in the skin of their flesh bright spots, white bright spots,
“Sɛ ɔbarima anaa ɔbaa bi honam ani yɛ fitaa nahanaha,
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.
na akyire no, honam no ani dum ara na ɛredum a, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ kwata ayɛ onipa no, na mmom, ɛyɛ yare foforɔ bi.
40 'And when a man's head [is] polished, he [is] bald, he [is] clean;
“Sɛ obi tiri so pa a, ɛwom sɛ ne tiri so apa deɛ, nanso ɛno nkyerɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔkwatani!
41 and if from the corner of his face his head is polished, he [is] bald of the forehead; he [is] clean.
Sɛ obi tiri so pa firi ne moma so a, na ne moma so ara na apa, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ kwata.
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;
Na mmom, sɛ nsisiiɛ nkɔkɔɔ a fitaa frafra mu wɔ atipa no so a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ebia, kwata pɛ sɛ ɛyɛ saa onipa no.
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,
Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ biribi kɔkɔɔ aboa ne ho baabi te sɛ kwata a,
44 he [is] a leprous man, he [is] unclean; the priest doth pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague [is] in his head.
na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, kwata ayɛ no, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.
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;
“Onipa biara a wɔbɛhunu sɛ ɔyare kwata no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔfira ntoma a atete na ɔma ne tirinwi fu, twa mpɛsɛmpɛsɛ na ɔkata nʼanim fa na ɔnam a ɔteateam sɛ, ‘Me ho nte! Me ho nte!’
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.
Na nna dodoɔ a yadeɛ no nkɔeɛ no deɛ, wɔbɛfa ɔyarefoɔ no sɛ ne ho nte enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena kuro no akyi baabi.
47 'And when there is in any garment a plague of leprosy, — in a garment of wool, or in a garment of linen,
“Sɛ kwata ho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi ka atadeɛ mu
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.
na sɛ nsisiiɛ ahahammono anaa kɔkɔɔ wɔ mu a, ebia na ɛyɛ kwata, enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔhwɛ.
50 'And the priest hath seen the plague, and hath shut up [that which hath] the plague, seven days;
Ɔsɔfoɔ no de bɛkɔ akɔsie nnanson
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.
na nnanson so no, wasane ahwɛ bio. Na sɛ ɔhunu sɛ nsisiiɛ no atrɛtrɛ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɛyɛ kwata a ɛtumi sane nnipa,
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.
enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ogya hye ntoma, kuntu ne ntadetam ne aboa nhoma no nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnam yeinom so bɛtumi ama yadeɛ no asane nnipa.
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,
“Na sɛ ne nnanson so no ɔhwɛ na sɛ nsisiiɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ a,
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.
ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhyɛ ama wɔasi nneɛma a wɔdwene sɛ yadeɛ no bi wɔ mu no no nyinaa na wɔakora no baabi bio nnanson.
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.
Sɛ nnanson bio akyi faako a yadeɛ no wɔ hɔ no nsesaa nʼahosuo na ɛntrɛtrɛɛ a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ kwata enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye adeɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ, yadeɛ no adidi kɔ mu ara yie.
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;
Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ nneɛmasie no akyi, nsisiiɛ no ano abrɛ ase a, ɔbɛtwa hɔ afiri ntoma anaa aboa nhoma a wɔde adi dwuma bi no mu.

Na sɛ ɛsane ba bio deɛ a, na ɛyɛ kwata enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye no.
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.
Sɛ wɔsi na asɛm biara amma ho a, wɔtumi de di dwuma biara ɛberɛ a wɔasane asi bio no.”
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.'
