Leviticus 14

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Hic est ritus leprosi, quando mundandus est. Adducetur ad sacerdotem:

“This is a law of the leper, in the day of his cleansing, that he has been brought to the priest,

3 qui egressus de castris, cum invenerit lepram esse mundatam,

and the priest has gone out to the outside of the camp, and the priest has seen, and behold, the plague of leprosy has ceased from the leper,

4 præcipiet ei, qui purificatur, ut offerat duos passeres vivos pro se, quibus vesci licitum est, et lignum cedrinum, vermiculumque et hyssopum.

and the priest has commanded, and he has taken for him who is to be cleansed, two clean living birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.

5 Et unum ex passeribus immolari jubebit in vase fictili super aquas viventes:

And the priest has commanded, and he has slaughtered one bird on an earthen vessel, over running water;

6 alium autem vivum cum ligno cedrino, et cocco et hyssopo, tinget in sanguine passeris immolati,

[as for] the living bird, he takes it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and has dipped them and the living bird in the blood of the slaughtered bird, over the running water,

7 quo asperget illum, qui mundandus est, septies, ut jure purgetur: et dimittet passerem vivum, ut in agrum avolet.

and he has sprinkled on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and has pronounced him clean, and has sent out the living bird over the face of the field.

8 Cumque laverit homo vestimenta sua, radet omnes pilos corporis, et lavabitur aqua: purificatusque ingredietur castra, ita dumtaxat ut maneat extra tabernaculum suum septem diebus,

And he who is to be cleansed has washed his garments, and has shaved all his hair, and has bathed with water, and has been clean, and afterward he comes into the camp, and has dwelt at the outside of his tent [for] seven days.

9 et die septimo radet capillos capitis, barbamque et supercilia, ac totius corporis pilos. Et lotis rursum vestibus et corpore,

And it has been, on the seventh day—he shaves all his hair, his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shaves, and he has washed his garments, and has bathed his flesh with water, and has been clean.

10 die octavo assumet duos agnos immaculatos, et ovem anniculam absque macula, et tres decimas similæ in sacrificium, quæ conspersa sit oleo, et seorsum olei sextarium.

And on the eighth day he takes two lambs, perfect ones, and one ewe-lamb, daughter of a year, a perfect one, and three-tenth parts of flour [for] a present, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.

11 Cumque sacerdos purificans hominem, statuerit eum, et hæc omnia coram Domino in ostio tabernaculi testimonii,

And the priest who is cleansing has caused the man who is to be cleansed to stand with them before YHWH, at the opening of the Tent of Meeting,

12 tollet agnum et offeret eum pro delicto, oleique sextarium: et oblatis ante Dominum omnibus,

and the priest has taken one male lamb, and has brought it near for a guilt-offering, also the log of oil, and has waved them [as] a wave-offering before YHWH.

13 immolabit agnum, ubi solet immolari hostia pro peccato, et holocaustum, id est, in loco sancto. Sicut enim pro peccato, ita et pro delicto ad sacerdotem pertinet hostia: Sancta sanctorum est.

And he has slaughtered the lamb in the place where he slaughters the sin-offering and the burnt-offering, in the holy place; for like the sin-offering, the guilt-offering is for the priest; it [is] most holy.

14 Assumensque sacerdos de sanguine hostiæ, quæ immolata est pro delicto, ponet super extremum auriculæ dextræ ejus qui mundatur, et super pollices manus dextræ et pedis:

And the priest has taken of the blood of the guilt-offering, and the priest has put [it] on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot;

15 et de olei sextario mittet in manum suam sinistram,

and the priest has taken of the log of oil, and has poured [it] on the left palm of the priest,

16 tingetque digitum dextrum in eo, et asperget coram Domino septies.

and the priest has dipped his right finger in the oil which [is] on his left palm, and has sprinkled of the oil with his finger seven times before YHWH.

17 Quod autem reliquum est olei in læva manu, fundet super extremum auriculæ dextræ ejus qui mundatur, et super pollices manus ac pedis dextri, et super sanguinem qui effusus est pro delicto,

And of the remainder of the oil which [is] on his palm, the priest puts [it] on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot, on the blood of the guilt-offering;

18 et super caput ejus.

and the remnant of the oil which [is] on the palm of the priest, he puts [it] on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest has made atonement for him before YHWH.

19 Rogabitque pro eo coram Domino, et faciet sacrificium pro peccato: tunc immolabit holocaustum,

And the priest has made the sin-offering, and has made atonement for him who is to be cleansed from his uncleanness, and afterward he slaughters the burnt-offering;

20 et ponet illud in altari cum libamentis suis, et homo rite mundabitur.

and the priest has caused the burnt-offering to ascend, also the present, on the altar, and the priest has made atonement for him, and he has been clean.

21 Quod si pauper est, et non potest manus ejus invenire quæ dicta sunt pro delicto, assumet agnum ad oblationem, ut roget pro eo sacerdos, decimamque partem similæ conspersæ oleo in sacrificium, et olei sextarium,

And if he [is] poor, and his hand is not reaching [these things], then he has taken one lamb [for] a guilt-offering, for a wave-offering, to make atonement for him, and one-tenth part of flour mixed with oil for a present, and a log of oil,

22 duosque turtures sive duos pullos columbæ, quorum unus sit pro peccato, et alter in holocaustum:

and two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, which his hand reaches to, and one has been a sin-offering and one a burnt-offering;

23 offeretque ea die octavo purificationis suæ sacerdoti, ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino.

and he has brought them in on the eighth day for his cleansing to the priest, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, before YHWH.

24 Qui suscipiens agnum pro delicto et sextarium olei, levabit simul:

And the priest has taken the lamb of the guilt-offering, and the log of oil, and the priest has waved them [as] a wave-offering before YHWH;

25 immolatoque agno, de sanguine ejus ponet super extremum auriculæ dextræ illius qui mundatur, et super pollices manus ejus ac pedis dextri:

and he has slaughtered the lamb of the guilt-offering, and the priest has taken of the blood of the guilt-offering, and has put [it] on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot;

26 olei vero partem mittet in manum suam sinistram,

and the priest pours of the oil on the left palm of the priest;

27 in quo tingens digitum dextræ manus asperget septies coram Domino:

and the priest has sprinkled with his right finger of the oil which [is] on his left palm, seven times before YHWH.

28 tangetque extremum dextræ auriculæ illius qui mundatur, et pollices manus ac pedis dextri, in loco sanguinis qui effusus est pro delicto:

And the priest has put of the oil which [is] on his palm, on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the guilt-offering;

29 reliquam autem partem olei, quæ est in sinistra manu, mittet super caput purificati, ut placet pro eo Dominum:

and he puts the remnant of the oil which [is] on the palm of the priest on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him, before YHWH.

30 et turturem sive pullum columbæ offeret,

And he has made one of the turtle-doves or of the young pigeons (from that which his hand reaches to,

31 unum pro delicto, et alterum in holocaustum cum libamentis suis.

[even] that which his hand reaches to), one a sin-offering and one a burnt-offering, besides the present, and the priest has made atonement for him who is to be cleansed before YHWH.

32 Hoc est sacrificium leprosi, qui habere non potest omnia in emundationem sui.

This [is] a law of him in whom [is] a plague of leprosy, whose hand does not reach to his cleansing.”

33 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:

And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

34 Cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan, quam ego dabo vobis in possessionem, si fuerit plaga lepræ in ædibus,

“When you come into the land of Canaan, which I am giving to you for a possession, and I have put a plague of leprosy in a house [in] the land of your possession,

35 ibit cujus est domus, nuntians sacerdoti, et dicet: Quasi plaga lepræ videtur mihi esse in domo mea.

then he whose the house [is] has come in and declared [it] to the priest, saying, Some plague has appeared to me in the house;

36 At ille præcipiet ut efferant universa de domo, priusquam ingrediatur eam, et videat utrum leprosa sit, ne immunda fiant omnia quæ in domo sunt. Intrabitque postea ut consideret lepram domus:

and the priest has commanded, and they have prepared the house before the priest comes in to see the plague (that all which [is] in the house is not unclean), and afterward the priest comes in to see the house;

37 et cum viderit in parietibus illius quasi valliculas pallore sive rubore deformes, et humiliores superficie reliqua,

and he has seen the plague, and behold, the plague [is] in the walls of the house, hollow streaks, greenish or reddish, and their appearance [is] lower than the wall,

38 egredietur ostium domus, et statim claudet illam septem diebus.

and the priest has gone out of the house to the opening of the house, and has shut up the house [for] seven days.

39 Reversusque die septimo, considerabit eam: si invenerit crevisse lepram,

And the priest has turned back on the seventh day, and has seen, and behold, the plague has spread in the walls of the house,

40 jubebit erui lapides in quibus lepra est, et projici eos extra civitatem in locum immundum:

and the priest has commanded, and they have drawn out the stones in which the plague [is], and have cast them to the outside of the city, to an unclean place;

41 domum autem ipsam radi intrinsecus per circuitum, et spargi pulverem rasuræ extra urbem in locum immundum,

and he causes the house to be scraped all around inside, and they have poured out the clay which they have scraped off, at the outside of the city, at an unclean place;

42 lapidesque alios reponi pro his qui ablati fuerint, et luto alio liniri domum.

and they have taken other stones, and brought [them] to the place of the stones, and he takes other clay and has coated the house.

43 Sin autem postquam eruti sunt lapides, et pulvis erasus, et alia terra lita,

And if the plague returns, and has broken out in the house, after he has drawn out the stones, and after the scraping of the house, and after the coating,

44 ingressus sacerdos viderit reversam lepram, et parietes respersos maculis, lepra est perseverans, et immunda domus:

then the priest has come in and seen, and behold, the plague has spread in the house; it [is] a fretting leprosy in the house; it [is] unclean.

45 quam statim destruent, et lapides ejus ac ligna, atque universum pulverem projicient extra oppidum in locum immundum.

And he has broken down the house, its stones, and its wood, and all the clay of the house, and he has brought [them] forth to the outside of the city, to an unclean place.

46 Qui intraverit domum quando clausa est, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:

And he who is going into the house all the days he has shut it up, is unclean until the evening;

47 et qui dormierit in ea, et comederit quippiam, lavabit vestimenta sua.

and he who is lying in the house washes his garments; and he who is eating in the house washes his garments.

48 Quod si introiens sacerdos viderit lepram non crevisse in domo, postquam denuo lita fuerit, purificabit eam reddita sanitate:

And if the priest certainly comes in, and has seen, and behold, the plague has not spread in the house after the coating of the house, then the priest has pronounced the house clean, for the plague has been healed.

49 et in purificationem ejus sumet duos passeres, lignumque cedrinum, et vermiculum atque hyssopum:

And he has taken two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop for the cleansing of the house;

50 et immolato uno passere in vase fictili super aquas vivas,

and he has slaughtered one bird on an earthen vessel, over running water;

51 tollet lignum cedrinum, et hyssopum, et coccum, et passerem vivum, et tinget omnia in sanguine passeris immolati, atque in aquis viventibus, et asperget domum septies,

and he has taken the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and has dipped them in the blood of the slaughtered bird, and in the running water, and has sprinkled against the house seven times.

52 purificabitque eam tam in sanguine passeris quam in aquis viventibus, et in passere vivo, lignoque cedrino et hyssopo atque vermiculo.

And he has cleansed the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet;

53 Cumque dimiserit passerem avolare in agrum libere, orabit pro domo, et jure mundabitur.

and he has sent the living bird away to the outside of the city to the face of the field, and has made atonement for the house, and it has been clean.

54 Ista est lex omnis lepræ et percussuræ,

This [is] the law for every plague of the leprosy and for scale,

55 lepræ vestium et domorum,

and for leprosy of a garment, and of a house,

56 cicatricis et erumpentium papularum, lucentis maculæ, et in varias species, coloribus immutatis,

and for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot—

57 ut possit sciri quo tempore mundum quid, vel immundum sit.

to direct in the day of being unclean, and in the day of being clean; this [is] the law of the leprosy.”
