Leviticus 13
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron, dicens:
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 Homo, in cujus cute et carne ortus fuerit diversus color, sive pustula, aut quasi lucens quippiam, id est, plaga lepræ, adducetur ad Aaron sacerdotem, vel ad unum quemlibet filiorum ejus.
"When a man shall have a rising in his body's skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the cohen, or to one of his sons, the cohanim:
3 Qui cum viderit lepram in cute, et pilos in album mutatos colorem, ipsamque speciem lepræ humiliorem cute et carne reliqua: plaga lepræ est, et ad arbitrium ejus separabitur.
and the cohen shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body's skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the cohen shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean.
4 Sin autem lucens candor fuerit in cute, nec humilior carne reliqua, et pili coloris pristini, recludet eum sacerdos septem diebus:
If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and its hair hasn't turned white, then the cohen shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
5 et considerabit die septimo: et si quidem lepra ultra non creverit, nec transierit in cute priores terminos, rursum recludet eum septem diebus aliis.
The cohen shall examine him on the seventh day, and, look, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the cohen shall isolate him for seven more days.
6 Et die septimo contemplabitur: si obscurior fuerit lepra, et non creverit in cute, mundabit eum, quia scabies est: lavabitque homo vestimenta sua, et mundus erit.
The cohen shall examine him again on the seventh day; and look, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the cohen shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
7 Quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est, et redditus munditiæ, iterum lepra creverit: adducetur ad eum,
But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the cohen for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the cohen again.
8 et immunditiæ condemnabitur.
The cohen shall examine him; and look, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.
9 Plaga lepræ si fuerit in homine, adducetur ad sacerdotem,
"When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the cohen;
10 et videbit eum. Cumque color albus in cute fuerit, et capillorum mutaverit aspectum, ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit:
and the cohen shall examine him. Look, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising,
11 lepra vetustissima judicabitur, atque inolita cuti. Contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos, et non recludet, quia perspicuæ immunditiæ est.
it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.
12 Sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute, et operuerit omnem cutem a capite usque ad pedes, quidquid sub aspectum oculorum cadit,
"If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the cohen;
13 considerabit eum sacerdos, et teneri lepra mundissima judicabit: eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit, et idcirco homo mundus erit.
then the cohen shall examine him; and, look, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean.
14 Quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit,
But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
15 tunc sacerdotis judicio polluetur, et inter immundos reputabitur: caro enim viva, si lepra aspergitur, immunda est.
The cohen shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.
16 Quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem, et totum hominem operuerit,
Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the cohen;
17 considerabit eum sacerdos, et mundum esse decernet.
and the cohen shall examine him; and, look, if the plague has turned white, then the cohen shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.
18 Caro autem et cutis in qua ulcus natum est, et sanatum,
"When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,
19 et in loco ulceris cicatrix alba apparuerit, sive subrufa, adducetur homo ad sacerdotem.
and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the cohen;
20 Qui cum viderit locum lepræ humiliorem carne reliqua, et pilos versos in candorem, contaminabit eum: plaga enim lepræ orta est in ulcere.
and the cohen shall examine it; and look, if its appearance is lower than the skin, and its hair has turned white, then the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil.
21 Quod si pilus coloris est pristini, et cicatrix subobscura, et vicina carne non est humilior, recludet eum septem diebus:
But if the cohen examines it, and look, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the cohen shall isolate him seven days.
22 et si quidem creverit, adjudicabit eum lepræ;
If it spreads in the skin, then the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.
23 sin autem steterit in loco suo, ulceris est cicatrix, et homo mundus erit.
But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the cohen shall pronounce him clean.
24 Caro autem et cutis, quam ignis exusserit, et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem,
"Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white,
25 considerabit eam sacerdos: et ecce versa est in alborem, et locus ejus reliqua cute est humilior, contaminabit eum, quia plaga lepræ in cicatrice orta est.
then the cohen shall examine it; and look, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and its appearance is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.
26 Quod si pilorum color non fuerit immutatus, nec humilior plaga carne reliqua, et ipsa lepræ species fuerit subobscura, recludet eum septem diebus,
But if the cohen examines it, and look, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't lower than the skin, but is faded; then the cohen shall isolate him seven days.
27 et die septimo contemplabitur: si creverit in cute lepra, contaminabit eum.
The cohen shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the cohen shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.
28 Sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus, plaga combustionis est, et idcirco mundabitur, quia cicatrix est combusturæ.
If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the cohen shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn.
29 Vir, sive mulier, in cujus capite vel barba germinaverit lepra, videbit eos sacerdos.
"When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,
30 Et si quidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua, et capillus flavus, solitoque subtilior, contaminabit eos, quia lepra capitis ac barbæ est.
then the cohen shall examine the plague; and look, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the cohen shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard.
31 Sin autem viderit locum maculæ æqualem vicinæ carni, et capillum nigrum: recludet eum septem diebus,
If the cohen examines the plague of itching, and look, its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the cohen shall isolate him the person infected with itching seven days.
32 et die septimo intuebitur. Si non creverit macula, et capillus sui coloris est, et locus plagæ carni reliquæ æqualis:
On the seventh day the cohen shall examine the plague; and look, if the itch hasn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn't deeper than the skin,
33 radetur homo absque loco maculæ, et includetur septem diebus aliis.
then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the cohen shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days.
34 Si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo, nec humilior carne reliqua, mundabit eum: lotisque vestibus suis, mundus erit.
On the seventh day, the cohen shall examine the itch; and look, if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, then the cohen shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
35 Sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute,
But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,
36 non quæret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit immutatus, quia aperte immundus est.
then the cohen shall examine him; and look, if the itch has spread in the skin, the cohen shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean.
37 Porro si steterit macula, et capilli nigri fuerint, noverit hominem sanatum esse, et confidenter eum pronuntiet mundum.
But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The cohen shall pronounce him clean.
38 Vir, sive mulier, in cujus cute candor apparuerit,
"When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots;
39 intuebitur eos sacerdos. Si deprehenderit subobscurum alborem lucere in cute, sciat non esse lepram, sed maculam coloris candidi, et hominem mundum.
then the cohen shall examine them; and look, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; he is clean.
40 Vir, de cujus capite capilli fluunt, calvus et mundus est:
"If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean.
41 et si a fronte ceciderint pili, recalvaster et mundus est.
If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean.
42 Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus,
But if there is on the bald head, or the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague; it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
43 et hoc sacerdos viderit, condemnabit eum haud dubiæ lepræ, quæ orta est in calvitio.
Then the cohen shall examine him; and, look, if the rising of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh,
44 Quicumque ergo maculatus fuerit lepra, et separatus est ad arbitrium sacerdotis,
he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The cohen shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.
45 habebit vestimenta dissuta, caput nudum, os veste contectum, contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit.
"The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, 'Unclean. Unclean.'
46 Omni tempore quo leprosus est et immundus, solus habitabit extra castra.
All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. Outside of the camp shall be his dwelling.
47 Vestis lanea sive linea, quæ lepram habuerit,
"The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
48 in stamine atque subtegmine, aut certe pellis, vel quidquid ex pelle confectum est,
whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin;
49 si alba vel rufa macula fuerit infecta, lepra reputabitur, ostendeturque sacerdoti:
if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the cohen.
50 qui consideratam recludet septem diebus:
The cohen shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.
51 et die septimo rursus aspiciens, si deprehenderit crevisse, lepra perseverans est: pollutum judicabit vestimentum, et omne in quo fuerit inventa:
He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean.
52 et idcirco comburetur flammis.
He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is: for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire.
53 Quod si eam viderit non crevisse,
"If the cohen examines it, and look, the plague hasn't spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin;
54 præcipiet, et lavabunt id in quo lepra est, recludetque illud septem diebus aliis.
then the cohen shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days.
55 Et cum viderit faciem quidem pristinam non reversam, nec tamen crevisse lepram, immundum judicabit, et igne comburet, eo quod infusa sit in superficie vestimenti, vel per totum, lepra.
Then the cohen shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and look, if the plague hasn't changed its color, and the plague hasn't spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside.
56 Sin autem obscurior fuerit locus lepræ, postquam vestis est lota, abrumpet eum, et a solido dividet.
If the cohen looks, and look, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
57 Quod si ultra apparuerit in his locis, quæ prius immaculata erant, lepra volatilis et vaga, debet igne comburi.
and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is.
58 Si cessaverit, lavabit aqua ea, quæ pura sunt, secundo, et munda erunt.
The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean."
59 Ista est lex lepræ vestimenti lanei et linei, staminis, atque subtegminis, omnisque supellectilis pelliceæ, quomodo mundari debeat, vel contaminari.
This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
