The Lord told Moses,
2 “Ndị a bụ usoro iwu gbasara onye ọrịa ekpenta nʼoge a na-eme mmemme ịdị ọcha ya, mgbe e dutere ya bịakwute onye nchụaja.
“These are the regulations regarding those who have had a skin disease when they are declared clean having been brought to the priest.
3 Onye nchụaja ga-apụ gaa nʼazụ ebe obibi nọdụ nʼebe ahụ lee ya ahụ, ịchọpụta ma ọrịa ekpenta ya ọ laala nʼezie. Ọ bụrụ na ọrịa ya alaala,
The priest must go outside the camp and inspect the person. If the skin disease has healed,
4 onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e weta nnụnụ abụọ dị ndụ, na ụfọdụ osisi sida, na eriri ogho uhie, na hisọp, maka onye ahụ a ga-emere mmemme ịdị ọcha.
the priest shall have two ceremonially clean birds brought to him, also some cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop, on behalf of the person to be made clean.
5 Onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e gbuo otu nʼime nnụnụ abụọ ahụ nʼelu mmiri e si nʼọdọ mmiri na-asọ asọ kute nke dị nʼime ite aja.
The priest will order one of the birds to be killed over a clay pot filled with fresh water.
6 Ọ ga-ewere nnụnụ nke ọzọ dị ndụ, ya na osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na hisọp ahụ, denye ha nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ e gburu nʼelu mmiri ahụ.
He will take the live bird together with the cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop, and dip them in the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water.
7 Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-efe ọbara ahụ ugboro asaa nʼahụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site nʼọrịa ekpenta. Ọ ga-ekwupụtakwa na a gwọọla onye ahụ. Emesịa, ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ ka o felaa nʼọhịa.
He will use the blood to sprinkle seven times the person being made clean of the skin disease. Then the priest will declare them clean and let the live bird fly away.
8 “Onye ahụ e mere ka ọ dị ọcha ga-asacha uwe ya, kpụchaa ntutu isi ya, saakwa ahụ ya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-adị ọcha. Emesịa, ọ ga-esoro ndị mmadụ biri nʼobodo. Ma ọ gaghị abanye nʼụlọ nke aka ya tutu ụbọchị asaa agafee.
The one being made clean must wash their clothes, shave off all their hair, and wash themselves with water; then they will be will be ceremonially clean. After that they can enter the camp, but they must stay outside their tent for seven days.
9 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, ọ ga-akpụchapụ ntutu isi ya, na afụọnụ ya, na ikuanya ya, na ajị ndị ọzọ dị ya nʼahụ. Ọ ga-asa uwe ya na ahụ ya niile. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ ya nʼonye dị ọcha.
On the seventh day they must shave off all their hair: their head, beard, eyebrows, and the rest of their hair. They must wash their clothes and wash themselves with water, and they will be clean.
10 “Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ, ọ ga-ewere ebule abụọ na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nne atụrụ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ gbara otu afọ, ya na iri iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma a gwakọtara mmanụ oliv maka aja mkpụrụ ọka, na otu iko mmanụ.
On the eighth day they are to bring two male lambs and one female lamb, all a year old and without defects; a grain offering consisting of three-tenths of an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil, and one ‘log’ of olive oil.
11 Onye nchụaja ahụ lere ya ahụ sị na ha dị ọcha, ga-ewere aja ndị a, ha na onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha chee nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
The priest who conducts the ceremony will present the person to be made clean to the Lord, along with these offerings, at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
12 “Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere otu nʼime ụmụ ebule ahụ, na otu iko mmanụ chụọ ya dịka onyinye aja ikpe ọmụma. Ọ ga-efufe ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe.
The priest will take one of the male lambs and present it as a guilt offering, together with the log of olive oil; and he will wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.
13 Ọ ga-egbu nwa ebule ahụ nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ, nʼebe a na-anọ egbu anụ aja mmehie na aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ bụ onye nchụaja ga-ewere anụ aja ikpe ọmụma a, dịka o were nke aja mmehie. Ọ bụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ.
Then he will kill the lamb near the sanctuary where the sin offering and burnt offering are killed. The sin offering and the guilt offering belong to the priest; it is most holy.
14 Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼime ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Ọ ga-etekwa ya nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼelu isi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke ụkwụ aka nri ya.
The priest will put some of the blood from the guilt offering on their right earlobe, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot of the person being made clean.
15 Emesịa onye nchụaja ga-awụnyetụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
The priest will pour some of the log of olive oil into his left palm,
16 ọ ga-arụnye otu mkpịsịaka nri ya nʼime mmanụ dị nʼọbụaka ya, ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka ya fesa ụfọdụ nʼime ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.

17 Onye nchụaja ga-ewere mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼọbụaka ya tee ya onye ahụ nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya, nʼelu ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ mee.
The priest will then use some of the rest of the olive oil remaining in his palm on the person being made clean, and put it on top of the blood of the guilt offering. This will be on their right earlobe, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.
18 Ọ ga-ete mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼaka ya, nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
What is left of the olive oil in his palm, the priest will put on the head of the person being made clean and then make them right before the Lord.
19 “Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-achụ aja mmehie, kpuchiere onye ahụ a ga-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site na-adịghị ọcha ha mmehie ya. Emesịa, onye nchụaja ga-egbu aja nsure ọkụ ahụ,
The priest will sacrifice the sin offering to make the person right, so that they are now clean from their uncleanness. After that, the priest will kill the burnt offering
20 were ya na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka chụọrọ onye ahụ aja, maka ikpuchiri ya mmehie ya. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ onye ahụ nʼonye dị ọcha.
and offer it on the altar, together with the grain offering, to make them right, and they will be clean.
21 “Ọ bụrụ na ọ bụ ogbenye onye na-enweghị ike iweta ihe ndị a, ha aghaghị iwere otu nwa ebule dịka aja ikpe ọmụma nke a ga-efufe nʼihi aja ikpuchi mmehie ha, Ọ ga-ewetakwa iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma asaa maọbụ ihe ọtụtụ efaa a gwara mmanụ oliv dịka aja mkpụrụ ọka, ya na otu iko mmanụ.
But those who are poor and can't afford these offerings must bring one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make them right, together with a tenth an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of olive oil,
22 Ọ ga-ewetakwa nduru abụọ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta. Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ.
and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whichever they can afford. One is to be used as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.
23 “Ọ ga-ewere ha nye onye nchụaja nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ya, maka ime ka ha dị ọcha.
On the eighth day they are to take them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord so they can be made clean.
24 Onye nchụaja ga-ewerekwa nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, ya na otu iko mmanụ oliv ahụ, fufee ha nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị.
The priest will take the lamb for the guilt offering, together with the log of olive oil, and wave them as a wave offering before the Lord.
25 Ọ ga-egbu nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, were ụfọdụ ọbara ya tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
After he kills the lamb for the guilt offering, the priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one being made clean, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of their right foot.
26 Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-awụnye ụfọdụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
Then the priest will pour some of the olive oil into his left palm
27 ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka nri ya fesa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ nke dị nʼọbụaka ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
and using his right index finger, will sprinkle some of the oil from his left palm seven times before the Lord.
28 Ọ ga-etekwa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ dị nʼaka ya nʼebe ndị ahụ o tere ọbara ikpe ọmụma ahụ, nke bụ nʼọnụ ntị onye ahụ nke a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
The priest shall also put some of the olive oil in his palm on the right earlobe of the person being made clean, on their right thumb, and on the big toe of his right foot, in the same places as the blood of the guilt offering.
29 Mmanụ nke fọdụrụ nʼaka ya ka onye nchụaja ga-ete nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, ikpuchi mmehie ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
What is left of the olive oil in his palm, the priest will put on the head of the person being made clean and then make them right before the Lord.
30 Emesịa, ọ ga-eji nduru abụọ ahụ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ ahụ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta, chụọ aja.
Then they must sacrifice one of the turtledoves or young pigeons, whichever they can afford,
31 Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ, ha na aja mkpụrụ ọka. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchiri ya mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, bụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha.”
one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, along with the grain offering. This is how the priest will make the person right and clean before the Lord.
32 Ndị a bụ usoro iwu dịrị onye ọbụla e sitere nʼọrịa ekpenta mee ka ọ dị ọcha, onye aka ya na-erughị iweta ihe o kwesiri iweta, bụ nke e ji eme ka ọ dị ọcha.
These are the regulations for those who have a skin disease and can't afford the usual offerings to make people clean.”
33 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,
Then the Lord told Moses and Aaron,
34 “Mgbe unu banyere ala Kenan, bụ ala ahụ m na-enye unu, ọ bụrụ na o nwee ụlọ ọbụla m webatara ọrịa na-efe efe,
“When you get to Canaan, the land I'm giving you to own, if I put some mold into a house there and contaminate it,
35 onyenwe ụlọ ahụ ga-ejekwuru onye nchụaja sị ya, ‘Ahụla m ihe yiri ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ m.’
the owner of the house must come and tell the priest, ‘It seems my house has something like mold.’
36 Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-enye iwu ka a kwapụsịa ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ tupu ọ gaa lezie ụlọ ahụ anya, ka ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ ghara ịbụ ihe rụrụ arụ, ma ọ bụrụ na achọpụta ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ ahụ. Mgbe a kwapụtasịrị ihe dị nʼụlọ ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-aga lee ụlọ ahụ.
The priest must order the house to be emptied before he goes in to inspect the mold, so that nothing in the house will be declared unclean. Once that's done, the priest is to go in and inspect the house.
37 Ọ ga-ele ntụpọ dị nʼahụ ụlọ ahụ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ na-acha ahịhịa ndụ ahịhịa ndụ, maọbụ ọbara ọbara, ọ bụrụkwa na ha miri emi karịa aja ụlọ ahụ nʼile anya,
He will examine the house and see whether the mold on the walls is made up of green or red indentations that go under the surface,
38 onye nchụaja ga-esi nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ahụ pụọ, kpọchie ụlọ ahụ ụbọchị asaa.
the priest shall go out of door and seal the house for seven days.
39 Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-alọghachi bịa lee ụlọ ahụ ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala nʼaja ụlọ ahụ,
On the seventh day the priest will return and inspect the house again. If the mold has spread on the walls,
40 onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e tida akụkụ aja ụlọ ahụ bufuo ya nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
he will order the affected stones to be removed and disposed of in an unclean area outside the town.
41 Ọ ga-enyekwa iwu ka a kpụchaa aja ụlọ niile dị nʼime ụlọ ahụ, bufukwaa aja niile a kpụchapụtara nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
Then he will order the all the plaster inside of the house to be scraped off and dumped in an unclean area outside the town.

Different stones must be used to replace the ones removed, and new plaster will be needed replaster the house.

If the mold returns and affects the house again even after the stones have been removed and the house has been scraped and replastered,
44 onye nchụaja ga-abịa lee ya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ hụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala ọzọ, ọ ga-agụ ụlọ ahụ dịka ihe rụrụ arụ, nʼihi na ntụpọ ahụ bụ ọrịa na-efe efe.
the priest must come and inspect it. If he sees the mold has spread in the house, it is a harmful mold; the house is unclean.
45 Ọ ga-enye iwu ka a kwatuo ụlọ ahụ bufukwaa ihe niile e jiri rụọ ya, nkume niile, osisi niile na ụrọ niile, nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
It must be demolished, and all its stones, timbers, and plaster must be taken and dumped in an unclean area outside the town.
46 “Onye ọbụla banyere nʼụlọ ahụ nʼoge e mechiri ya, ga-abụ onye rụrụ arụ ruo nʼoge uhuruchi.
Anyone who goes into the house during any time that it is sealed will be unclean until the evening.
47 Onye ọbụla dinara ala maọbụ rie nri nʼime ya, ga-asacha uwe ya.
Anyone who sleeps or eats in the house must wash their clothes.
48 “Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja abịa hụ na ntụpọ ahụ apụtaghị ọzọ, mgbe e techara ụlọ ahụ ụrọ nke ugboro abụọ, ọ ga-agụ ya nʼụlọ dị ọcha, nʼihi na ọrịa ahụ na-efe efe alaala.
However, if when the priest comes and inspects it and finds that the mold hasn't reappeared after the house was replastered, he shall declare the house clean because the mold is gone.
49 Ọ ga-ejikwa nnụnụ abụọ, na osisi sida, na ogho uhie, na osisi hisọp mee mmemme ido ihe ọcha.
He will bring two birds, cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop to make the house clean.

He will kill one of the birds over a clay pot filled with fresh water.
51 Ọ ga-edenye osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na osisi hisọp ahụ, nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ na mmiri ahụ. Ọ ga-efesa ọbara ahụ nʼụlọ ahụ ugboro asaa.
He will dip the live bird, the cedar wood, crimson thread, and hyssop, in the blood of the bird that was killed and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times.
52 Ọ bụ ọbara nnụnụ ahụ, na mmiri ahụ, na nnụnụ nke ọzọ ahụ dị ndụ, na osisi sida ahụ na hisọp ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ ka ọ ga-eji mee ka ụlọ ahụ dị ọcha.
He will make the house clean with the bird's blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the crimson thread.
53 Ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ dị ndụ ka o fepụ felaa nʼọhịa dị nʼazụ obodo. Nke a ga-abụ otu e si kpuchiere ụlọ ahụ mmehie ya. Ọ ga-adịkwa ọcha.”
Then he will let the live bird fly away outside the town. This is how he will make the house right, and it will be clean.
54 Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ọrịa ekpenta, na ọkọ,
These are the regulations for any infectious skin disease, for a scabby infection,
