< Levitikọs 13 >
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị ha,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
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.
The man in whose skin or flesh shalt arise a different colour or a blister, or as it were something shining, that is, the stroke of the leprosy, shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or any one of 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 he see the leprosy in his skin, and the hair turned white, and the place where the leprosy appears lower than the skin and the rest of the flesh: it is the stroke of the leprosy, and upon his judgment he shall be separated.
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 there be a shining whiteness in the skin, and not lower than the other flesh, and the hair be of the former colour, the priest shall shut him up 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 seventh day he shall look on him: and if the leprosy be grown no farther, and hath not spread itself in the skin, he shall shut him up again other seven days.
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 on the seventh day, he shall look on him: if the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall 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 leprosy grow again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him,
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 shall be condemned of uncleanness.
9 “Mgbe ọbụla mmadụ nwere ihe dị ka ọrịa na-efe efe nʼahụ ya, a ghaghị ịkpọtara ya onye nchụaja.
If the stroke of the leprosy be in a man, he shall be brought 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 he shall view him. And when there shall be a white colour in the skin, and it shall have changed the look of the hair, and the living flesh itself shall appear:
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 shall be judged an inveterate leprosy, and grown into the skin. The priest therefore shall declare him unclean, and shall not shut him up, because he is evidently 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,
But if the leprosy spring out running about in the skin, and cover all the skin from the head to the feet, whatsoever falleth under the sight of the eyes,
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.
The priest shall view him, and shall judge that the leprosy which he has is very clean: because it is all turned into whiteness, and therefore the man shall be 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 when the live flesh shall appear in him,
15 Onye nchụaja ga-enyocha ọnya ahụ. Kwupụta na onye ahụ rụrụ arụ. Ọnya ahụ rụrụ arụ nʼihi na ọrịa ekpenta ka ọ bụ.
Then by the judgment of the priest he shall be defiled, and shall be reckoned among the unclean: for live flesh, if it be spotted with leprosy, is unclean.
16 Ọ bụrụ nʼọnya ahụ agbanwe na-acha ọcha, ha ga-agakwuru onye nchụaja.
And if again it be turned into whiteness, and cover all the man,
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.
The priest shall view him, and shall judge him to be clean.
18 “Ọ bụrụ na etuto toro mmadụ nʼahụ alaa,
When also there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has been healed,
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 in the place of the ulcer, there appeareth a white scar, or somewhat red, the man shall be brought to the priest:
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 when he shall see the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hair turned white, he shall declare him unclean, for the plague of leprosy is broken out in the ulcer.
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 the hair be of the former colour, and the scar somewhat obscure, and be not lower than the flesh that is near it, he shall shut him up 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 spread, he shall judge him to have the leprosy:
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 it stay in its place, it is but the scar of an ulcer, and the man shall be 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,
The flesh also and skin that hath been burnt, and after it is healed hath a white or a red scar,
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 shall view it, and if he see it turned white, and the place thereof is lower than the other skin: he shall declare him unclean, because the evil of leprosy is broken out in the scar.
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 the colour of the hair be not changed, nor the blemish lower than the other flesh, and the appearance of the leprosy be somewhat obscure, he shall shut him up 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 on the seventh day he shall view him: if the leprosy be grown farther in the skin, he shall declare him unclean.
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.
But if the whiteness stay in its place, and be not very clear, it is the sore of a burning, and therefore he shall be cleansed, because it is only the scar of a burning.
29 “Ọ bụrụ na nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ọbụla enwee ọnya nʼisi, maọbụ na nti ya,
If the leprosy break out in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the Priest shall see them,
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.
And if the place be lower than the other flesh, and the hair yellow, and thinner than usual: he shall declare them unclean, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard;
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.
But if he perceive the place of the spot is equal with the flesh that is near it, and the hair black: he shall shut him up 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 he shall look upon it. If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:
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.
The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot, and he shall be shut up other seven days:
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.
If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him, and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.
35 Ma ọ bụrụ na mgbe a gụchara ya nʼonye dị ọcha ọnya ahụ emesịa basaa nʼahụ ya.
But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin,
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.
He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently 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 the spot be stayed, and the hair be black, let him know that the man is healed, and let him confidently pronounce him clean.
38 “Mgbe nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ọbụla nwere ntụpọ ọcha nʼanụ ahụ ya,
If a whiteness appear in the skin of a man or a woman,
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.
The priest shall view them. If he find that a darkish whiteness shineth in the skin, let him know that it is not the leprosy, but a white blemish, and that the man is clean.
40 “Mgbe ajị na-adịghịkwa nwoke nʼisi, ọ bụ isi nkwọcha, onye ahụ dị ọcha.
The man whose hair falleth off from his head, he is bald and 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 fall from his forehead, he is bald before and 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 in the bald head or in the bald forehead there be risen a white or reddish colour,
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.
And the priest perceive this, he shall condemn him undoubtedly of leprosy which is risen in the bald part.
44 Onye nchụaja ga-agụ ya dịka onye ekpenta. Ọ bụkwa onye rụrụ arụ, nʼihi ọnya ahụ dị ya nʼisi.
Now whosoever shall be defiled with the leprosy, and is separated by the judgment of the priest,
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!’
Shall have his clothes hanging loose, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth, and he shall cry out that he is defiled and 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.
All the time that he is a leper and unclean, he shall dwell alone without the camp.
47 “Ọ bụrụ na a hụrụ ntụpọ yiri ntụpọ ọrịa na-efe efe nʼuwe ajị anụ maọbụ nʼuwe ogho ọcha,
A woollen or linen garment that shall have the leprosy
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.
In the warp, and the woof, or a skin. or whatsoever is made of a 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 it be infected with a white or red spot, it shall be accounted the leprosy, and shall be shewn to the priest.
50 Onye nchụaja ga-ele ya anya, were ya debe ya iche ụbọchị asaa.
And he shall look upon it and shall shut it up 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 on the seventh day when he looketh on it again, if he find that it if grown, it is a Axed leprosy: he shall judge the garment unclean, and every thing wherein it shall be found:
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 therefore it shall be burnt with 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.
But if he see that it is not grown,
54 Ọ ga-enye iwu ka a saa ihe ndị ahụ niile mmiri, wezugakwa ya iche ruo ụbọchị asaa ọzọ.
He shall give orders, and they shall wash that part wherein the leprosy is, and he shall shut it up other seven days.
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 when he shall see that the former colour is not returned, nor yet the leprosy spread, he shall judge it unclean, and shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has taken hold of the outside of the garment, or through the whole.
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.
But if the place of the leprosy be somewhat dark, after the garment is washed, he shall tear it off, and divide it from that which is sound.
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 after this there appear in those places that before were without spot, a flying and wandering leprosy: it must be burnt 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.”
If it cease, he shall wash with water the parts that are pure, the second time, and they shall 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 touching the leprosy of any woollen or linen garment, either in the warp or woof, or any thing of skins, how it ought to be cleansed, or pronounced unclean.
