Levitikọs 13

1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị ha,

And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

2 “Mgbe mmadụ hụrụ etuto, maọbụ ọnya, maọbụ ntụpọ na-eko eko nʼakpụkpọ anụ ahụ ya nke dị ka ihe ọrịa ekpenta na-eweta, a ga-eduru onye ahụ bịa nʼihu Erọn onye nchụaja maọbụ ụmụ ya ndị ikom, bụ ndị nchụaja.

If a man has on his skin a growth or a mark or a white place, and it becomes the disease of a leper, let him be taken to Aaron the priest, or to one of the priests, his sons;

3 Onye nchụaja ga-eleru ọrịa ahụ dị ya nʼahụ anya. Ọ bụrụ na ajị dị gburugburu ebe ahụ ebidola ịcha ọcha, ọ bụrụkwa na ebe ahụ mibara ime, ọ bụ ọrịa ekpenta. Mgbe onye nchụaja leruchara ya anya, ọ ga-ekwupụta na onye ahụ bụ onye rụrụ arụ.

And if, when the priest sees the mark on his skin, the hair on the place is turned white and the mark seems to go deeper than the skin, it is the mark of a leper: and the priest, after looking at him, will say that he is unclean.

4 Ọ bụrụkwanụ na ajị dị gburugburu ebe ahụ dị ọcha, ma na ebe ahụ emighị emi karịa akụkụ ahụ ya ndị ọzọ, onye nchụaja ga-edebe onye ahụ ebe ọ ga-anọ naanị ya abalị asaa.

But if the mark on his skin is white, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is not turned white, then the priest will keep him shut up for seven days;

5 Mgbe ụbọchị asaa gasịrị, onye nchụaja ga-ele ya ahụ ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ alabeghị, na ọ nwekwaghị mgbanwe ọbụla, a ga-edebekwa ya abalị asaa ọzọ.

And the priest is to see him on the seventh day; and if, in his opinion, the place on his skin has not become worse and is not increased in size, then the priest will keep him shut up for seven days more:

6 Mgbe abalị asaa nke a gafekwara, onye nchụaja ga-elekwa ya ahụ ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ọ dịtụla ya mma, na ọnya ahụ agbasaghị nʼanụ ahụ ya, onye nchụaja ga-asị na ọ dị ọcha, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị ọnya efu. Onye ahụ ga-asakwa uwe ya mmiri, mgbe ahụ dị ọcha.

And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; and if the mark is less bright and is not increased on his skin, then let the priest say that he is clean: it is only a skin-mark, and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

7 Ma ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ agbasaa nʼahụ ya mgbe o gosicharala onye nchụaja onwe ya maka nsacha ịdị ọcha, ọ ga-alaghachikwa azụ ga hụ onye nchụaja ahụ ọzọ.

But if the size of the mark on his skin is increased after he has been seen by the priest, let him go to the priest again:

8 Onye nchụaja ga-eleru ya anya, ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja achọpụta na ọnya ahụ na-agbasa, ọ ga-agụ onye ahụ dịka onye rụrụ arụ, ọ bụ ọrịa na-efe efe.

And if, after looking at him, he sees that the mark is increased in his skin, let the priest say that he is unclean; he is a leper.

9 “Mgbe ọbụla mmadụ nwere ihe dị ka ọrịa na-efe efe nʼahụ ya, a ghaghị ịkpọtara ya onye nchụaja.

When the disease of a leper is seen on a man, let him be taken to the priest;

10 Onye nchụaja ga-ele anya nʼakụkụ anụ ahụ ya zara aza ịchọpụta ma ọ dị ọcha, ma ajị dị gburugburu ebe ahụ ọ na-acha ọcha, na ịhụkwa ma ọ nwere ọnya dị gburugburu ebe ahụ.

And if the priest sees that there is a white growth on the skin, and the hair is turned white, and there is diseased flesh in the growth,

11 Ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja ahụ ihe ndị a, ọ bụ ọrịa ekpenta nʼezie. Ọ ga-agụkwa onye ahụ dịka onye rụrụ arụ. A gaghị edebekwa ya ile ya ahụ, nʼihi na ọ bụrụlarị onye rụrụ arụ.

It is an old disease in the skin of his flesh, and the priest will say that he is unclean; he will not have to be shut up, for he is clearly unclean.

12 “Ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja elee onye ahụ anya hụ na ọrịa ọcha ahụ enupụtala nʼakụkụ ahụ ya niile, site nʼụkwụ ya ruo nʼisi ya,

And if the disease comes out all over his skin, from his head to his feet, as far as the priest is able to see,

13 onye nchụaja a ga-eleru ya anya, ọ bụrụ na ọrịa ahụ enupụtala nʼahụ ya niile, ọ ga-ekwupụta na onye ahụ dị ọcha, ebe ọ bụ na ọrịa ahụ enupụtala mee ka anụ ahụ ya chawa ọcha.

And if the priest sees that all his flesh is covered with the leper's disease, the priest will say that he is clean: it is all turned white, he is clean.

14 Ma ọ bụrụ na e nwere akụkụ ahụ ya ọnya ọ hụrụ pụtara, ọ ga-agụ ya dịka onye na-adịghị ọcha.

But whenever diseased flesh is seen on him, he will be unclean.

15 Onye nchụaja ga-enyocha ọnya ahụ. Kwupụta na onye ahụ rụrụ arụ. Ọnya ahụ rụrụ arụ nʼihi na ọrịa ekpenta ka ọ bụ.

And when the priest sees the diseased flesh he will say that he is unclean; the diseased flesh is unclean, he is a leper.

16 Ọ bụrụ nʼọnya ahụ agbanwe na-acha ọcha, ha ga-agakwuru onye nchụaja.

Or if the diseased flesh is turned again and changed to white then he is to come to the priest,

17 Onye nchụaja ga-ele ya ahụ. Ọ bụrụ na ọnya niile ahụ na-acha ezi ọcha, onye nchụaja ga-agụ ya dịka onye na-enweghị ntụpọ. Ndị dị ọcha ka ha ga-abụ.

And the priest will see him: and if the place is turned white, then the priest will say that he is free from the disease.

18 “Ọ bụrụ na etuto toro mmadụ nʼahụ alaa,

And if a bad place has come out on the skin and is well again,

19 ma akpụkpọ anụ ahụ ya anọgide na-acha ọcha, maọbụ na-acha ọbara ọbara, a ga-ejekwuru onye nchụaja ka o lee ya anya nʼahụ.

And on the same place there is a white growth of a bright mark, red and white, then let the priest see it;

20 Ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja achọpụta na e nwere ọrịa dị nʼokpuru akpụkpọ ahụ ya, chọpụtakwa na ajị ya na-acha ọcha, onye nchụaja ga-agụ mmadụ ahụ dịka onye rụrụ arụ, nʼihi na ekpenta esitela nʼetuto ahụ pụta.

And after looking at it, if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and the hair on it is turned white, then the priest will say that the man is unclean: it is the leper's disease, it has come out in the bad place.

21 Ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja achọpụta na ajị ọcha adịghị nʼakpụkpọ ahụ ya, chọpụtakwa na ọnya ahụ abanyeghị nʼime, onye nchụaja ga-edebe onye ahụ ụbọchị asaa.

But if, after looking at it, he sees that there are no white hairs on it, and it is not deeper than the skin, and it is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:

22 Nʼime ụbọchị asaa ahụ, ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ abaa ụba karịa ka ọ dị na mbụ, onye nchụaja ga-agụ mmadụ ahụ dịka onye na-adịghị ọcha. Ọ bụ ọrịa na-emerụ emerụ ka ọ bụ.

And if it is increasing on the skin, the priest will say that he is unclean: it is a disease.

23 Ma ọ bụrụ na ọ baghị ụba karịa, onye nchụaja ga-agụ mmadụ ahụ dịka onye dị ọcha, nʼihi na ihe a bụ etuto lara ala.

But if the bright mark keeps in the same place and gets no greater, it is the mark of the old wound, and the priest will say that he is clean.

24 “Ọ bụrụ na ọkụ agbaa mmadụ, mee ka ọnya pụta ya nʼahụ: ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ ebido na-acha ọbara ọbara, maọbụ na-acha ezigbo ọcha,

Or if there is a burn on the skin of the flesh, and if the diseased flesh in the burn becomes a bright place, red and white or white,

25 onye nchụaja ga-elezi onye dị otu a anya. Ọ bụrụ na ajị dị gburugburu ebe ọnya ahụ dị na-acha ọcha, maọbụ na ọnya ahụ mibara ime karịa, ọ ghọọla ekpenta nke si nʼọnya ahụ nupụta. Onye nchụaja ga-agụ mmadụ ahụ dịka onye na-adịghị ọcha. Ọ bụ ọrịa ekpenta.

The priest is to see it: and if the hair on the bright place is turned white and it seems to go deeper than the skin, he is a leper: it has come out in the burn, and the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.

26 Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja elee ya hụ na ajị dị gburugburu ebe ahụ adịghị ọcha, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ dịghị ala karịa akpụkpọ ahụ, na ọ na-aṅacha, mgbe ahụ onye nchụaja ga-edebe onye ahụ iche ụbọchị asaa.

But if, after looking at it, the priest sees that there is no white hair on the bright place, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is not very bright, then let the priest keep him shut up for seven days:

27 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-elezi onye ahụ anya nke ọma. Ọ bụrụ na ọ chọpụtara na ọnya ahụ na-abasaa nʼakpụkpọ ahụ ya, onye nchụaja ga-agụ onye ahụ dịka onye na-adịghị ọcha. Ọrịa na-emerụ emerụ ka ọ bụ.

And the priest is to see him again on the seventh day; if it is increased in the skin, then the priest will say that he is unclean: it is the leper's disease.

28 Ma ọ bụrụ na ọ gbanweghị, bụrụkwa na ọ basaghị nʼakpụkpọ ahụ ma ọ na-aṅacha, ọ bụ ihe ọzịza sitere nʼọkụ rere onye ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-agụ ya dịka onye dị ọcha, nʼihi na ọ bụ apa ọnya lara ala.

And if the bright place keeps the same size and gets no greater on the skin, but is less bright, it is the effect of the burn, and the priest will say that he is clean: it is the mark of the burn.

29 “Ọ bụrụ na nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ọbụla enwee ọnya nʼisi, maọbụ na nti ya,

And when a man or a woman has a disease on the head, or in the hair of the chin,

30 onye nchụaja ga-elezi ọnya ahụ anya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị ala karịa akpụkpọ ahụ ya, ọ bụrụkwa na ajị dị na ya na-acha odo odo dị irighiri, onye nchụaja ga-agụ ha dịka ndị na-adịghị ọcha. Ọ bụ ọrịa na-emerụ emerụ nke dị nʼisi maọbụ nʼagba.

Then the priest is to see the diseased place: and if it seems to go deeper than the skin, and if there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest will say that he is unclean: he has the mark of the leper's disease on his head or in the hair of his chin.

31 Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja achọpụta na ọnya ahụ adịghị abasa abasa, maọbụ na ajị dị nʼebe ahụ adịghị eji ojii, onye nchụaja ga-edebe onye ahụ ụbọchị asaa.

And after looking at the diseased place, if it does not seem to go deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest will have him shut up for seven days:

32 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa onye nchụaja ga-elezi ọnya ahụ anya. Ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ abasaghị karịa, ọ bụrụ na o nweghị ajị na-acha edo edo, ọ bụrụkwa na o mibaghị emiba,

And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not seem to go deeper than the skin,

33 ọ ga-akpụchapụ ajị niile dị nʼakụkụ ebe ahụ ọnya mere ya, ma ọ gaghị akpụchapụ ajị dị nʼọnya ahụ nʼonwe ya. Onye nchụaja ga-edebe onye ahụ ụbọchị asaa.

Then his hair is to be cut off, but not on the diseased place, and he is to be shut up for seven days more:

34 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-elezi ọnya ahụ anya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ basaghị karịa, maọbụ mibanye nʼime karịa anụ ahụ, a ga-agụ mmadụ ahụ dịka onye dị ọcha. Ọ ga-apụ sachaa uwe ya, bụrụ onye dị ọcha.

And on the seventh day the priest will see the place: and if it is not increased, and does not seem to go deeper than the skin, the priest will say that he is clean: and after his clothing has been washed he will be clean.

35 Ma ọ bụrụ na mgbe a gụchara ya nʼonye dị ọcha ọnya ahụ emesịa basaa nʼahụ ya.

But if the disease in his skin becomes worse after he has been made clean,

36 Onye nchụaja ga-ele ya anya. Ọ bụrụ na ọnya ahụ agbasaala nʼakpụkpọ ahụ ya, onye nchụaja a gaghị achọwa ajị na-acha edo edo. Onye ahụ rụrụ arụ.

Then the priest is to see him: and if the mark is increased, the priest, without looking for the yellow hair, will say that he is unclean.

37 Ma ọ bụrụ nʼuche onye nchụaja na ọnya ahụ adịghị abasa abasa, ọ bụrụkwa na ajị ojii epupụtala nʼebe ahụ, ọnya ahụ alaala. Onye dị ọcha ka mmadụ ahụ bụ. Onye nchụaja ga-ekwupụta na ọ dị ọcha.

But if, in his opinion, the growth is stopped, and black hair has come up on it, the disease has gone; he is clean and the priest will say that he is clean.

38 “Mgbe nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ọbụla nwere ntụpọ ọcha nʼanụ ahụ ya,

And if a man or a woman has bright marks on the skin of their flesh, that is, bright white marks,

39 onye nchụaja ga-ele ya ahụ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ adịghị achazi ezi ọcha, ọ bụ ọkọ nupụtara onye ahụ nʼahụ. Onye ahụ dị ọcha.

Then the priest is to see them: and if the white marks on their skin are not very bright, it is a skin disease which has come out on the skin; he is clean.

40 “Mgbe ajị na-adịghịkwa nwoke nʼisi, ọ bụ isi nkwọcha, onye ahụ dị ọcha.

And if a man's hair has come out and he has no hair, still he is clean.

41 Otu aka ahụ, ọ bụrụ na isi ya esite nʼegedege ihu ya kwọchasịa, ọ bụghị ekpenta, onye dị ọcha ka ọ bụ.

And if the hair has gone from the front part of his head, so that he has no hair there, still he is clean.

42 Kama ọ bụrụ na onye ahụ enwee etuto nʼisi ya maọbụ nʼegedege ihu ya nke na-acha ọbara ọbara, na ọcha ọcha, o nwere ike bụrụ ọrịa ekpenta na-enupụta ya nʼisi maọbụ nʼegedege ihu.

But if, on his head or on his brow, where he has no hair, there is a red and white place, it is the disease of the leper coming out on his head or on his brow.

43 Nʼihi ya, onye nchụaja ga-elezi ya anya. Ọ bụrụ na etuto ahụ toro ya nʼisi maọbụ nʼegedege ihu na-acha ọbara ọbara, na ọcha ọcha, ọ ga-abụ na ọ ghọọla ọrịa ekpenta.

Then if the priest sees that the growth of the disease has become red and white on his head or on his brow where there is no hair, like the mark in the skin of a leper;

44 Onye nchụaja ga-agụ ya dịka onye ekpenta. Ọ bụkwa onye rụrụ arụ, nʼihi ọnya ahụ dị ya nʼisi.

He is a leper and unclean; the priest is to say that he is most certainly unclean: the disease is in his head.

45 “Onye ọbụla a chọpụtara na ọ bụ onye ekpenta ga-eyi uwe dọkara adọka, hapụ agịrị isi ya ka ọ dịka nke onye ara. Ọ ga-ekpuchi elu egbugbere ọnụ ya, na-eti mkpu na-asị, ‘Onye rụrụ arụ ka m bụ. Onye rụrụ arụ ka m bụ!’

And the leper who has the disease on him is to go about with signs of grief, with his hair loose and his mouth covered, crying, Unclean, unclean.

46 Ụbọchị niile nke ọ nọ nʼọrịa ahụ, ọ gaghị ebi nʼime obodo nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ nʼihi na onye rụrụ arụ ka ọ bụ.

While the disease is on him, he will be unclean. He is unclean: let him keep by himself, living outside the tent-circle.

47 “Ọ bụrụ na a hụrụ ntụpọ yiri ntụpọ ọrịa na-efe efe nʼuwe ajị anụ maọbụ nʼuwe ogho ọcha,

And any clothing of wool or of linen in which is the mark of the disease;

48 maọbụ nʼakpụkpọ anụ ọbụla, maọbụ nʼihe ọbụla e ji akpụkpọ ajị anụ maọbụ uwe ogho ọcha, uwe a kpara akpa, maọbụ nke a tụrụ atụ mee.

If it is in the threads of the linen or of the wool, or in leather, or in anything made of skin;

49 Ọ bụrụkwa na ntụpọ dị nʼuwe ahụ, maọbụ nʼakpụkpọ anụ ahụ, maọbụ nke a kpara akpa, maọbụ nke atụrụ atụ, maọbụ nʼihe akpụkpọ anụ ọbụla na-acha ahịhịa ndụ maọbụ uhie uhie, o nwere ike ịbụ ọrịa na-efe efe. A ga-ewegara onye nchụaja uwe ahụ ka o lezie ya anya.

If there are red or green marks on the clothing, or on the leather, or in the threads of the cloth, or in anything made of skin, it is the leper's disease: let the priest see it.

50 Onye nchụaja ga-ele ya anya, were ya debe ya iche ụbọchị asaa.

And after it has been seen by the priest, the thing which is so marked is to be shut up for seven days:

51 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-ele ya anya ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaa nʼuwe ahụ maọbụ nʼihe ahụ a kpara akpa, maọbụ nʼihe ahụ a tụrụ atụ, maọbụ nʼihe akpụkpọ anụ ahụ, nʼime ụbọchị asaa ndị a, nʼagbanyeghị ihe e ji ha eme, ọ bụ ọrịa ọjọọ na-efe efe. Ihe ahụ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ.

And he is to see the mark on the seventh day; if the mark is increased in the clothing, or in the threads of the material, or in the leather, whatever the leather is used for, it is the disease biting into it: it is unclean.

52 A ga-akpọ uwe ahụ, maọbụ akwa ajị anụ ahụ, maọbụ akwa ajị anụ a kpara akpa, maọbụ akwa ogho ọcha ahụ, maọbụ ihe akpụkpọ anụ ọbụla ọkụ, nʼihi na ọrịa na-efe efe dị nʼime ya, nʼihi na ọrịa na-eweta mbibi ka ọ bụ. A ghakwaghị iji ọkụ rechapụ ya.

And the clothing, or the wool or linen material, or anything of leather in which is the disease, is to be burned: for the disease is biting into it; let it be burned in the fire.

53 “Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja ahụ ele hụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaghị nʼuwe ahụ, maọbụ nʼakwa ahụ a kpara akpa, maọbụ akwa a tụrụ atụ, maọbụ nʼihe akpụkpọ anụ ahụ ọbụla.

And if the priest sees that the mark is not increased in the clothing or in any part of the material or in the leather,

54 Ọ ga-enye iwu ka a saa ihe ndị ahụ niile mmiri, wezugakwa ya iche ruo ụbọchị asaa ọzọ.

Then the priest will give orders for the thing on which the mark is, to be washed, and to be shut up for seven days more:

55 Mgbe a sachara ihe ahụ mmiri, onye nchụaja ga-ele ya anya ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbanwebeghị, ọ bụrụ na ọ na-achakwa dịka o si acha na mbụ, mgbe ụbọchị ndị a gasịrị, ọ bụ ezie na ọ gbasaghị, ọ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ. A ga-akpọ ya ọkụ, ma ntụpọ ahụ ọ dị nʼihu uwe ahụ maọbụ nʼazụ ya.

And if, after the mark has been washed, the priest sees that the colour of it is not changed and it is not increased, it is to be burned in the fire: the disease is working in it, though the damage may be inside or outside.

56 Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja elee ya anya hụ na ụcha ntụpọ dị nʼihe ahụ adịghị ukwuu nʼihi nsacha a sachara ya na mmiri, ọ ga-achakapụ akụkụ uwe ahụ, maọbụ akwa ahụ a kpara akpa maọbụ nke a tụrụ atụ.

And if the priest sees that the mark is less bright after the washing, then let him have it cut out of the clothing or the leather or from the threads of the material:

57 Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ emesịa pụta ọzọ nʼuwe ahụ, maọbụ nʼakwa ahụ a kpara akpa, maọbụ nke a tụrụ atụ, maọbụ nʼakpụkpọ anụ ahụ, o gosiri na ọ na-agbasa agbasa. Ihe ọbụla nwere ntụpọ ahụ ka a ga-akpọ ọkụ.

And if the mark is still seen in the clothing or in the threads of the material or in the leather, it is the disease coming out: the thing in which the disease is will have to be burned with fire.

58 Uwe maọbụ ihe a kpara akpa, maọbụ ihe a tụrụ atụ, maọbụ ihe akpụkpọ anụ ọbụla a sara mmiri nke ntụpọ dị na ya pụrụ, a ga-asa ya mmiri ọzọ. Ọ ga-abụkwa ihe dị ọcha.”

And the material of the clothing, or anything of skin, which has been washed, if the mark has gone out of it, let it be washed a second time and it will be clean.

59 Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ntụpọ dịka ntụpọ ọrịa na-efe efe nke dị nʼuwe ajị anụ maọbụ uwe ogho ọcha, maọbụ nʼihe a kpara akpa maọbụ nʼihe a tụrụ atụ, maọbụ nʼihe akpụkpọ anụ. Iwu ndị a ga-enye aka ịchọpụta ma ha rụrụ arụ, maọbụ na ha dị ọcha.

This is the law about the leper's disease in the thread of wool or linen material, in clothing or in anything of skin, saying how it is to be judged clean or unclean.
