< Leviticus 15 >

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me and Aaron,
2 Loquimini filiis Israel, et dicite eis: Vir, qui patitur fluxum seminis, immundus erit.
“Tell this to the Israelis: When an infected discharge comes out of a man’s sexual organs [EUP], that fluid should not be touched.
3 Et tunc iudicabitur huic vitio subiacere, cum per singula momenta adhæserit carni eius, atque concreverit fœdus humor.
Whether that fluid is blocked or continues to drip, it causes him to be someone who should not be touched.
4 Omne stratum, in quo dormierit, immundum erit, et ubicumque sederit.
“And any bed that such a man lies on should not be touched, and anything that he sits on should not be touched.
5 Si quis hominum tetigerit lectum eius, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
Anyone who touches that person’s bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
6 Si sederit ubi ille sederat, et ipse lavabit vestimenta sua: et lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
Anyone who sits on something that man has sat on must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
7 Qui tetigerit carnem eius, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
“Anyone who touches such a man must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
8 Si salivam huiuscemodi homo iecerit super eum qui mundus est, lavabit vestimenta sua: et lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
“If such a man spits on someone else, that person who is spit upon should not be touched. He must wash his clothes, and no one should touch him until that evening.
9 Sagma, super quo sederit, immundum erit:
“Everything that a man who has such a discharge of fluid sits on while he is riding [a horse or a donkey] should not be touched,
10 et quidquid sub eo fuerit, qui fluxum seminis patitur, pollutum erit usque ad vesperum. Qui portaverit horum aliquid, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
and anyone who touches the seat or saddle that he was sitting on also should not be touched until that evening. And anyone who picks up the seat or saddle must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
11 Omnis, quem tetigerit qui talis est, non lotis ante manibus, lavabit vestimenta sua: et lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
Anyone whom the man with such a discharge of fluid from his body touches without first rinsing his hands in water must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
12 Vas fictile quod tetigerit, confringetur: vas autem ligneum lavabitur aqua.
“If such a man touches a clay pot, that pot must be broken into pieces. Anything made from wood that he touches must be rinsed in water.
13 Si sanatus fuerit qui huiuscemodi sustinet passionem, numerabit septem dies post emundationem sui, et lotis vestibus et toto corpore in aquis viventibus, erit mundus.
“If such a man is healed from his flow of fluid, he must wait for seven days. Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water from a spring. Then he will be able to be with others.
14 Die autem octavo sumet duos turtures, aut duos pullos columbæ, et veniet in conspectum Domini ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii, dabitque eos sacerdoti.
On the eighth/next day, he must take two doves or two young pigeons and come in front of Yahweh at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and give them to the priest.
15 qui faciet unum pro peccato, et alterum in holocaustum: rogabitque pro eo coram Domino, ut emundetur a fluxi seminis sui.
The priest will sacrifice them. One will be an offering for the man to become acceptable to God, and the other one will be completely burned [on the altar]. As a result of the priest doing that, the man will be forgiven for having sinned.
16 Vir de quo egreditur semen coitus, lavabit aqua omne corpus suum: et immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
“Then semen accidentally flows from a man’s sexual organs [EUP], he must bathe his whole body, and no one should touch him until that evening.
17 Vestem et pellem, quam habuerit, lavabit aqua, et immunda erit usque ad vesperum.
Any clothing or leather that has semen on it must be washed, and no one should touch it until that evening.
18 Mulier, cum qua coierit, lavabitur aqua, et immunda erit usque ad vesperum.
When a man has sex with a woman and some semen spills, both of them must bathe, and no one should touch them until that evening.
19 Mulier, quæ redeunte mense patitur fluxum sanguinis, septem diebus separabitur.
“Then a woman has her monthly menstrual period, no one should touch her for seven days. If anyone touches her [during that time], no one should touch the person who touched her until that evening.
20 Omnis qui tetigerit eam, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
No one should touch anything that she lies on or sits on during that time.
21 et in quo dormierit vel sederit diebus separationis suæ, polluetur.
Anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
22 Qui tetigerit lectum eius, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
Anyone who touches something that she has been sitting on, a bed or anything else, must wash his clothes, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
23 Omne vas, super quo illa sederit, quisquis attigerit, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, pollutus erit usque ad vesperum.
24 Si coierit cum ea vir tempore sanguinis menstrualis, immundus erit septem diebus: et omne stratum, in quo dormierit, polluetur.
“If a man has sex with a woman [during that time] and some of the menstrual blood touches him, no one should touch him for seven days, and no one should touch the bed that he lies on.
25 Mulier, quæ patitur multis diebus fluxum sanguinis non in tempore menstruali, vel quæ post menstruum sanguinem fluere non cessat, quamdiu subiacet huic passioni, immunda erit quasi sit in tempore menstruo.
“Then a woman has a vaginal discharge of blood for (many days/a long time), which is not her monthly flow of blood, or if her flow of blood continues after her monthly flow ends, no one should touch her until it stops.
26 omne stratum, in quo dormierit, et vas in quo sederit, pollutum erit.
And no one should touch the bed that she lies on or anything that she sits on while that flow of blood continues, just like during her monthly menstrual period.
27 quicumque tetigerit ea, lavabit vestimenta sua: et ipse lotus aqua, immundus erit usque ad vesperam.
Anyone who touches those things should not touch anyone else; he must wash his clothes and bathe, and he should not touch anyone else until that evening.
28 Si steterit sanguis, et fluere cessaverit, numerabit septem dies purificationis suæ:
“After a woman’s monthly menstrual flow ends, she must wait seven days before she touches anyone.
29 et die octavo offeret pro se sacerdoti duos turtures, aut duos pullos columbarum ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii:
On the eighth/next day, she must take two doves or two pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
30 qui unum faciet pro peccato, et alterum in holocaustum, rogabitque pro ea coram Domino, et pro fluxu immunditiæ eius.
The priest will sacrifice one of them to be an offering to enable her to become acceptable to Yahweh again, and completely burn the other one [on the altar]. By doing that he will cause me, Yahweh, to forgive her for having sinned [DOU].
31 Docebitis ergo filios Israel ut caveant immunditiam, et non moriantur in sordibus suis, cum polluerint tabernaculum meum quod est inter eos.
“You must warn the Israeli people not to do things that (defile them/cause them to be unacceptable to me). If they become (unacceptable to me/defiled), they will cause my Sacred Tent which is among them to become an unacceptable place to worship me, and as a result they will die.”
32 Ista est lex eius, qui patitur fluxum seminis, et qui polluitur coitu,
“Those are the regulations for a man who has a fluid that flows from his sexual organs or who should not be touched because some of his semen spills out while having sex [with a woman],
33 et quæ menstruis temporibus separatur, vel quæ iugi fluit sanguine, et hominis, qui dormierit cum ea.
and for any woman during her monthly menstrual period, and for any man who has sex with a woman during her menstrual period.”
