Alawii 13

1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,

Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me:

2 “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe angĩgĩa na handũ haimbu, kana mũtũnda, kana handũ hakaragacũku ngoothi-inĩ yake, harĩa hangĩtuĩka mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya atwarwo kũrĩ Harũni, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, kana kũrĩ ũmwe wa ariũ ake ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

“When someone has on his skin a swelling or a rash or a shiny/bright spot that may become (contagious/a dreaded skin disease), he must be brought to Aaron or to one of his sons who are also priests.

3 Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai arore kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ ngoothi-inĩ yake, na angĩkorwo njuĩrĩ ya handũ hau harũaru nĩĩgarũrũkĩte ĩkerũha, na kĩronda kĩu kĩonwo kĩrikĩire thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ gũkĩra harĩa ngoothi yakinya-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio. Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai aarĩkia kũmũrora, nĩagacooka atue atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu.

The priest must examine that part of the person’s skin. If the hair in that area has become white and it appears that the sore is deeper than just on the skin, it is a contagious skin disease. When the priest sees that, he must declare that the person must stay away from other people [MTY].

4 Angĩkorwo kĩmeni kĩu arĩ nakĩo ngoothi-inĩ yake nĩkĩerũhĩte na gĩtirikĩire ngoothi-inĩ, nayo njuĩrĩ yaho ndĩerũhĩte-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaiga mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.

If the spot on the person’s skin is white but it does not appear that the sore is deeper than just on the skin, the priest must tell him to stay away from other people for seven days.

5 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora na angĩkoona atĩ kĩronda gĩtigarũrũkĩte na gĩtithegeete-rĩ, nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.

Then the priest must examine the person again. If the priest sees that the sore has not changed and has not spread, he must tell the person to stay away from people for seven more days.

6 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩakamũrora o rĩngĩ, na angĩkorwo kĩronda kĩu nĩkĩrathira na gĩtithegeete ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu; ĩyo no mĩtũnda. Mũndũ ũcio no nginya athambie nguo ciake, nake nĩagathera, athirwo nĩ thaahu.

Then the priest must examine him again. If the sore has faded and has not spread, the priest will allow him to be with other people again; it is only a rash. After the person washes his clothes, he will be allowed to be with other people again.

7 No mũtũnda ũcio ũngĩthegea ngoothi-inĩ yake thuutha wa kwĩonania harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩguo atuĩke ndarĩ na thaahu, no nginya acooke kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai rĩngĩ.

But if the sore spreads after the priest has examined him, he must go to the priest again.

8 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na angĩkorwo mũtũnda ũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ, nĩakamũtua atĩ arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũrĩa ũngĩgwatanio.

The priest will examine him; and if the sore has spread to more of the skin, it is a contagious skin disease, and the priest will declare that he must stay away from other people.

9 “Rĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe angĩgĩa na mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya atwarwo harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

When anyone has a contagious skin disease, he must be brought to the priest.

10 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora, na hangĩkorwo harĩ na handũ haimbu hakeerũha ngoothi-inĩ hagatũma njuĩrĩ yerũhe, na angĩkorwo handũ hau haimbu nĩhatũrĩkĩte hakagĩa kĩronda-rĩ,

The priest must examine him. And if there is a white swelling in the skin that has caused the hair in that swelling to become white, and if the flesh in that area is painful/sensitive,

11 ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũtangĩhona, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Ndakamũiga handũ mwanya, tondũ mũndũ ũcio nĩarĩkĩtie kũgĩa na thaahu.

it is a permanent skin disease, and the priest will declare that he must stay away from other people. The priest does not need to tell that person that he must avoid other people, because other people already are wanting to stay away from him.

12 “No rĩrĩ, mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩhunja ngoothi-inĩ yake yothe, na harĩa hothe mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩhota kuona oone atĩ mũrimũ ũcio ũiyũrĩte ngoothi-inĩ ya mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru kuuma mũtwe nginya magũrũ-rĩ,

‘If the disease spreads all over someone’s body, and the priest examines that person and sees that it is covering his skin from his head to his feet,

13 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na aakorwo mũrimũ ũcio nĩ ũiyũrĩte mwĩrĩ wake wothe, nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu. Kuona atĩ nĩerũhĩte kũndũ guothe-rĩ, ndarĩ na thaahu.

and it has caused all his skin to become white [which will indicate that the disease has ended], the priest will declare that the person does not have to stay away from other people.

14 No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũndũ ũcio angĩonwo arĩ na ironda-rĩ, nĩagatuĩka arĩ na thaahu.

But if the person has open sores and they are very painful/sensitive, he has a contagious skin disease,

15 Rĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩona kĩronda-rĩ, nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu; mũndũ ũcio arĩ na mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio.

and when the priest sees that, he will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

16 No kĩronda kĩu kĩngĩgarũrũka kĩerũhe, no nginya mũndũ ũcio athiĩ harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

But if the person’s flesh changes and becomes white, he must go to the priest again.

17 Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora, na aakorwo ironda nĩcierũhĩte-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru ndarĩ na thaahu, nake nĩagatuĩka ndarĩ na thaahu.

The priest must examine him again; and if the sores have become white, the priest will declare that the person who had been infected is now permitted to be with other people again.

18 “Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩgĩa na ihũha ngoothi-inĩ yake na rĩcooke rĩhone,

‘Then someone has a boil on his skin and it has healed,

19 naho hau ihũha rĩraarĩ haimbe na herũhe, kana hagĩe na kameni gatune-rĩ, no nginya athiĩ akeyonanie kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

but in the place where the boil was a white swelling or a bright/shiny spot appears, he must go to the priest.

20 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora handũ hau, na hangĩoneka nĩ harikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, na njuĩrĩ ciaho ikerũha, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu. Nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio ũtuthũkĩte harĩa ihũha rĩu rĩraarĩ.

The priest must examine it. And if it seems to be deeper than just on the skin, and if the hair in that spot has become white, it is a contagious skin disease that has appeared where the boil had been. And the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

21 No, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora handũ hau one hatirĩ na njuĩrĩ njerũ thĩinĩ waho, na hatirikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, na nĩhahohete-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja.

But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in that spot and it is only on the surface of the skin and has become less bright/shiny, then the priest will order him to stay away from other people for seven days.

22 Kũngĩkorwo kĩronda kĩa ihũha rĩu nĩkĩrathegea ngoothi-inĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio.

But if it is spreading, it is contagious and the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

23 No handũ hau hangĩkorwo hatigarũrũkĩte na hatithegeete, kĩu no kĩrema kĩa ihũha, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.

But if that spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

24 “Mũndũ angĩgĩa na ihĩa ngoothi-inĩ yake, narĩo ihĩa rĩu rĩgĩe na kĩronda gĩtunĩhe kana kĩerũhe-rĩ,

‘Then someone has a burn on his skin and a bright/shiny or white spot appears, and the flesh in that area is sensitive/painful,

25 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora handũ hau, na angĩkorwo njuĩrĩ ciaho nĩcierũhĩte, na hakorwo hakĩoneka harikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio ũtũrĩkĩire ihĩa-inĩ rĩu. Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio.

the priest must examine the spot. If the hair in that spot has turned white and it seems to be deeper than just on the surface of the skin, it is a contagious skin disease that has appeared where the burn was, and that person must stay away from other people.

26 No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩkaarora one atĩ hatirĩ na njuĩrĩ njerũ kĩrema-inĩ kĩu na ti harikĩru gũkĩra ngoothi yake na nĩhahohete-rĩ, thuutha ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.

But when the priest examines it and sees that there is no white hair in that spot and it is only on the surface of the skin, and has faded, the priest will declare that the person must stay away from people for seven days.

27 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora rĩngĩ, naguo mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩkorwo nĩũrathegea ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio.

On the seventh day, the priest will examine him again. If the sore is spreading, it is a contagious skin disease, and the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

28 No handũ hau hangĩkorwo hatigarũrũkĩte, na hatithegeete ngoothi-inĩ, no nĩhahohete, ũcio nĩ ũimbu wa ihĩa rĩu, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu; kĩu no kĩrema kĩa ihĩa.

However, if the spot is not changed and has not spread but has faded, it is only a scar from the burn, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

29 “Mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩkorwo na kĩronda mũtwe kana kĩreru-rĩ,

‘If a man or a woman has a sore on his head or on his chin,

30 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakarora kĩronda kĩu, na kĩngĩoneka kĩrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi, nayo njuĩrĩ yaho ĩkorwo nĩ ya rangi wa ngoikoni, na ĩkorwo ĩrĩ njeke, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; ũcio nĩ ũhere, nĩ mũrimũ wa mangũ ma mũtwe kana ma kĩreru.

the priest must examine it. If it appears to be deeper than [just on the surface of] the skin, and the hair in that spot has thinned out and has become yellowish, it is a contagious skin disease that causes itching. And the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

31 No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩronda kĩa mũthemba ũcio, na gĩkorwo ti kĩrikĩru gũkĩra ngoothi, na hatirĩ njuĩrĩ njirũ thĩinĩ wakĩo, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaiga mũndũ ũcio mũrũaru handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.

But when the priest examines that kind of sore, if it seems to be only on the surface of the skin and there is no healthy hair in it, the priest will tell the person to stay away from other people for seven days.

32 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora kĩronda kĩu rĩngĩ na angĩkorwo ũhere ũcio ndũthegeete na hatirĩ njuĩrĩ cia rangi wa ngoikoni, na gĩtikuoneka kĩrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ,

On the seventh day, the priest will examine the sore again. If it has not spread and if there is no yellow hair in that spot and if it appears to be only on the surface of the skin,

33 no nginya mũndũ ũcio enjwo tiga o harĩa harũaru, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.

the person must shave the hair near the sore but not the hair on the sore. And the priest will tell him to stay away from other people for seven more days.

34 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakarora ũhere ũcio o rĩngĩ, na angĩkorwo ndũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ na ndũkuoneka ũrikĩire gũkĩra ngoothi-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩagatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu. No no nginya athambie nguo ciake, na nĩagatuĩka ndarĩ na thaahu.

On the seventh day, the priest will examine that spot again. If it has not spread and it appears to be only on the surface of the skin, the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with people again. The person must wash his clothes, and then he can be with other people.

35 No, ũhere ũcio, ũngĩthegea ngoothi-inĩ thuutha wa mũndũ ũcio gũtuuo atĩ ndarĩ na thaahu-rĩ,

But if the sore later spreads,

36 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakamũrora na angĩkorwo ũhere ũcio nĩũthegeete ngoothi-inĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio ndakabatario nĩkũrora njuĩrĩ cia rangi wa ngoikoni; mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu.

the priest must examine him again. If the itch/sore has spread, the priest does not need to look for yellow hair, because it is clear that the person has a contagious skin disease.

37 No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩkoona atĩ hatirĩ na ũgarũrũku na nĩhamerete njuĩrĩ njirũ, ũhere ũcio nĩũhonete. Mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu, nake Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũtua ndarĩ na thaahu.

However, if the priest thinks that the spot has not changed, and healthy hair is growing in that area, it is clear that the itch has healed, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

38 “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩgĩa na tũmeni twerũ ngoothi-inĩ-rĩ,

‘Then a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,

39 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatũrora, na tuo tũngĩkorwo ti twerũ mũno-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũtũnda ũtangĩrwaria mũndũ ũtuthũkĩte ngoothi-inĩ; mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.

the priest should examine them. But if the spots are dull white, it is only a rash, and [the priest will declare that] the person is permitted to be with other people.

40 “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ angĩmunyũka njuĩrĩ na agĩe na kĩhara-rĩ, ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.

‘If a man loses the hair on any part of his head, he does not need to stay away from other people.

41 Angĩkorwo amunyũkĩte njuĩrĩ ĩrutĩtie na thiithi akagĩa kĩhara kĩa na mbere, ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu.

42 No angĩkorwo arĩ na kĩronda gĩtune kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ wake-rĩ, ũcio nĩ mũrimũ ũngĩgwatanio ũratuthũka kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ wake.

But if he gets a bright/shiny sore on his bald head or on his forehead, he has a contagious skin disease.

43 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũrora, na angĩkorwo kĩronda kĩu kĩimbĩte kĩhara-inĩ kana thiithi-inĩ nĩ gĩtune gĩkahaana ta mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ,

The priest must examine him. If the swollen sore is a bright spot like [the spot on someone who has] a contagious skin disease,

44 mũndũ ũcio nĩ mũrũaru na arĩ na thaahu. Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũtua arĩ na thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kĩronda kĩu kĩrĩ mũtwe wake.

the priest will declare that the man has a contagious skin disease and must not be with other people.

45 “Mũndũ ũrĩ na mũrimũ ta ũcio ũngĩgwatanio-rĩ, no nginya ehumbe nguo ndarũku, na arekererie njuĩrĩ yake, na ahumbĩre kanua gake, athiĩ akĩanagĩrĩra akiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndĩ na thaahu! Ndĩ na thaahu!’

‘Anyone who has a contagious skin disease must wear torn clothes and not comb his hair. [When he is near other people], he must cover the lower part to his face and call out, “Do not come near me! I have a contagious skin disease!”

46 Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũndũ ũcio arĩ na mũrimũ ũcio, arĩkoragwo arĩ na thaahu. No nginya atũũrage wiki, na no nginya atũũrage nja ya kambĩ.

He is not allowed to be with other people as long as he has the disease. He must live alone, outside the camp.’”

47 “Nguo o na ĩrĩkũ ĩngĩguma, ĩrĩ ya guoya wa ngʼondu kana ya gatani,

“Sometimes a person’s clothing gets mildew on it. It may be clothing that is woven from wool or made from linen or from leather.

48 kana ya taama o wothe ũtumĩtwo na ndigi njogothe kana taama wa gatani, kana guoya wa ngʼondu, kana rũũa o ruothe, kana kĩndũ o gĩothe gĩthondeketwo na rũũa-rĩ,

49 na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio ũrĩ nguo-inĩ, kana rũũa-inĩ, kana taama-inĩ wa ndigi njogothe, kana taama-inĩ o wothe mũtume, kana kĩndũ-inĩ o gĩothe gĩtumĩtwo na rũũa-rĩ, ũgumu ũcio ũngĩkorwo na rangi ta wa nyeki nduru kana mũtune, ũcio nĩ ũgumu ũrathegea, na no nginya wonio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

If the contaminated/mildewed part is greenish or reddish, it is a spreading mildew, and it must be shown to the priest.

50 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakarora ũgumu ũcio, na aige kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na ũgumu handũ mwanya mĩthenya mũgwanja.

The priest will examine it, and then put it in a separate place by itself for seven days.

51 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja nĩakarora kĩndũ kĩu, na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio nĩũthegeete nguo-inĩ, kana ndigi-inĩ njogothe, kana taama-inĩ mũtume, kana rũũa-inĩ, rũrĩ rwa kũrutĩrwo wĩra o na ũrĩkũ, ũcio nĩ ũgumu wa kwananga; kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu.

On the seventh day he must examine it again. If the mildew has spread, it is clear that it is a type of mildew that destroys clothing, and that clothing must not be worn again.

52 No nginya acine nguo ĩyo, kana ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama ũcio mũtume na guoya wa ngʼondu kana gatani, kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ gĩothe kĩa rũũa rũrĩa rũgwatie ũgumu ũcio, nĩ ũndũ ũgumu ũcio nĩ wa kwananga; kĩndũ kĩu no nginya gĩcinwo.

The owner must burn completely the item that has the mildew in it, whatever kind of item it is.

53 “No rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩndũ kĩu, ũgumu ũcio ũkorwo ndũthegeete nguo-inĩ ĩyo, kana ndigi-inĩ icio njogothe kana taama-inĩ ũcio mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa-rĩ,

But when the priest examines it, if the mildew has not spread,

54 nĩagaathana kĩndũ kĩu kĩgwatĩtio ũgumu gĩthambio. Ningĩ nĩagakĩiga handũ mwanya mĩthenya ĩngĩ mũgwanja.

he will tell the person [who owns it] to wash it. Then he must put it in a separate place for another seven days.

55 Thuutha wa kĩndũ kĩu kĩgwatie ũgumu gũthambio-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagakĩrora, na angĩkorwo ũgumu ũcio ndũrĩ ũndũ ũgarũrũkĩte, o na gũtuĩka ndũthegeete-rĩ, kĩndũ kĩu kĩrĩ na thaahu. Nĩgĩcinwo na mwaki, o na aakorwo ũgumu ũnyiitĩte mwena ũmwe kana ũrĩa ũngĩ.

Then the priest will examine it again. If the color of the mildew has not changed, even though it has not spread, that item must not be worn again. It does not matter if the mildew is on the inside of the clothing or on the outside; it must be burned.

56 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩrora kĩndũ kĩu na akore ũgumu ũcio ũnyihanyiihĩte thuutha wa kĩndũ kĩu gũthambio-rĩ, nĩagatembũra nguo ĩyo eherie hau he na ũgumu kuuma nguo-inĩ ĩyo, kana rũũa-inĩ, kana ndigi-inĩ icio njogothe, kana taama-inĩ ũcio mũtume.

But when the priest examines it [after it has been washed], if the mildew has faded, he must tear out that part that had the mildew in it.

57 No ũgumu ũcio ũngĩcooka woneke nguo-inĩ, kana harĩ ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama ũcio mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa, ũgumu ũcio nĩgũthegea ũrathegea, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ na ũgumu ũcio no nginya gĩcinwo na mwaki.

But if the mildew reappears in that item, it is clear that it is spreading, and the whole item must be burned.

58 Nguo ĩyo, kana ndigi icio njogothe, kana taama mũtume, kana kĩndũ kĩa rũũa kĩrĩa gĩthambĩtio gĩkaniinwo ũgumu ũcio no nginya gĩthambio rĩngĩ, na nĩ gĩgaathirwo nĩ thaahu.”

But after the clothing is washed and the mildew disappears, it must be washed again, and then it can be worn again.

59 Macio nĩmo mawatho marĩa makoniĩ indo inyiitĩtwo nĩ ũgumu, irĩ cia guoya wa ngʼondu, kana taama wa gatani, kana ndigi njogothe, kana taama mũtume, kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩa rũũa, nĩmo mawatho ma gũtua kana indo icio irĩ na thaahu kana itirĩ na thaahu.

Those are the regulations concerning mildew on things made of wool or linen or leather, for deciding whether those things can continue to be worn or not.”
