Leviticus 14
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Hic est ritus leprosi, quando mundandus est. Adducetur ad sacerdotem:
This shall be the law of the leper on the day of his being cleansed: He shall be brought unto the priest.
3 qui egressus de castris, cum invenerit lepram esse mundatam,
And the priest shall go forth to without the camp; and if the priest see, and, behold, the plague of leprosy be healed on the leper:
4 præcipiet ei, qui purificatur, ut offerat duos passeres vivos pro se, quibus vesci licitum est, et lignum cedrinum, vermiculumque et hyssopum.
Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two healthy, clean birds, and cedar wood, and a string of scarlet yarn, and hyssop.
5 Et unum ex passeribus immolari jubebit in vase fictili super aquas viventes:
And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in 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 shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the string of scarlet yarn, and the hyssop, and he shall dip these and the living bird into the blood of the bird that was killed 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 shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times; and when he hath cleansed him, he shall let the living bird fly forth into the open 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 that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, and he shall be clean, and after that he may come into the camp; but he shall tarry outside of his tent seven days.
9 et die septimo radet capillos capitis, barbamque et supercilia, ac totius corporis pilos. Et lotis rursum vestibus et corpore,
And it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave off all his hair, his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, even all his hair shall he shave off: and he shall wash his clothes, he shall also wash his flesh in water, when he shall be 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 shall take two sheep without blemish, and one ewe of the first year without blemish, and three-tenth parts of fine flour for a meat-offering, mingled 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 cleanseth shall cause the man that is to be made clean, and these things, to stand before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
12 tollet agnum et offeret eum pro delicto, oleique sextarium: et oblatis ante Dominum omnibus,
And the priest shall take the one sheep, and offer the same for a trespass-offering, with the log of oil; and he shall make with them a waving before the Lord.
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 shall slay the sheep on the place where the sin-offering and the burnt-offering are killed, in the holy place; for as the sin-offering so doth the trespass-offering belong to 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 shall take some of the blood of the trespass-offering; and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
15 et de olei sextario mittet in manum suam sinistram,
And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand.
16 tingetque digitum dextrum in eo, et asperget coram Domino septies.
And the priest shall dip his finger of the right hand in the oil that is in his left hand, and he shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord.
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 rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass-offering.
18 et super caput ejus.
And what is left of the oil that is in the priest's hand, he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall [thus] make an atonement for him before the Lord.
19 Rogabitque pro eo coram Domino, et faciet sacrificium pro peccato: tunc immolabit holocaustum,
And the priest shall prepare the sin-offering, and make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward shall he kill the burnt-offering:
20 et ponet illud in altari cum libamentis suis, et homo rite mundabitur.
And the priest shall offer the burnt-offering and the meat-offering upon the altar; and the priest shall [thus] make an atonement for him, and he shall be 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,
But if he be poor, and his means do not suffice, then shall he take one sheep for a trespass-offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him; and one-tenth part of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat-offering, 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, for which his means suffice; and one shall be a sin-offering, and the other a burnt-offering.
23 offeretque ea die octavo purificationis suæ sacerdoti, ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino.
And he shall bring them on the eighth day of his being cleansed unto the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the Lord.
24 Qui suscipiens agnum pro delicto et sextarium olei, levabit simul:
And the priest shall take the sheep of the trespass-offering, and the log of oil; and the priest shall make with them a waving before the Lord.
25 immolatoque agno, de sanguine ejus ponet super extremum auriculæ dextræ illius qui mundatur, et super pollices manus ejus ac pedis dextri:
And he shall kill the sheep of the trespass-offering; and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass-offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
26 olei vero partem mittet in manum suam sinistram,
And some of the oil shall the priest pour into the palm of his own left hand:
27 in quo tingens digitum dextræ manus asperget septies coram Domino:
And the priest shall sprinkle with his finger of the right hand some of the oil that is in his left hand, seven times before the Lord;
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 shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot; upon the place of the blood of the trespass-offering;
29 reliquam autem partem olei, quæ est in sinistra manu, mittet super caput purificati, ut placet pro eo Dominum:
And what is left of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the Lord.
30 et turturem sive pullum columbæ offeret,
And he shall offer the one of the turtle-doves, or of the young pigeons, from what his means enable him [to bring];
31 unum pro delicto, et alterum in holocaustum cum libamentis suis.
Even what his means enable him, the one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, with the meat-offering: and the priest shall [thus] make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed, before the Lord.
32 Hoc est sacrificium leprosi, qui habere non potest omnia in emundationem sui.
This is the law of him on whom is the plague of leprosy, whose means are not sufficient when he is cleansed.
33 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
34 Cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan, quam ego dabo vobis in possessionem, si fuerit plaga lepræ in ædibus,
When ye come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy on a house of the land of your possession:
35 ibit cujus est domus, nuntians sacerdoti, et dicet: Quasi plaga lepræ videtur mihi esse in domo mea.
Then shall he that owneth the house come and tell the priest, saying, Something like a leprosy hath shown itself 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 shall command that they clear out the house, before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all be not made unclean that is in the house: and after this shall the priest go in to see the house.
37 et cum viderit in parietibus illius quasi valliculas pallore sive rubore deformes, et humiliores superficie reliqua,
And he shall view the plague, and, behold, if the plague be in the walls of the house, in depressions, dark green or dark red, and their appearance be deeper than the wall:
38 egredietur ostium domus, et statim claudet illam septem diebus.
Then shall the priest go out of the house to the door of the house, and lock up the house seven days.
39 Reversusque die septimo, considerabit eam: si invenerit crevisse lepram,
And the priest shall come again on the seventh day; and if he see, that, behold, the plague have spread in the walls of the house:
40 jubebit erui lapides in quibus lepra est, et projici eos extra civitatem in locum immundum:
Then shall the priest command that they break out the stones on which the plague is; and they shall cast them forth without the city on an unclean place.
41 domum autem ipsam radi intrinsecus per circuitum, et spargi pulverem rasuræ extra urbem in locum immundum,
And the house he shall cause to be scraped within round about; and they shall pour out the rubbish that they have scraped off without the city on an unclean place.
42 lapidesque alios reponi pro his qui ablati fuerint, et luto alio liniri domum.
And they shall take other stones, and put them into the place of these stones; and other mortar shall he take, and shall plaster the house.
43 Sin autem postquam eruti sunt lapides, et pulvis erasus, et alia terra lita,
And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after he hath taken away the stones, and after the house hath been scraped, and after it hath been plastered:
44 ingressus sacerdos viderit reversam lepram, et parietes respersos maculis, lepra est perseverans, et immunda domus:
Then shall the priest come; and if he see that, behold, the plague have spread in the house, it is a corrosive 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 shall break down the house, its stones, and the timbers thereof, and all the mortar of the house; and he shall carry them forth to without the city, unto an unclean place.
46 Qui intraverit domum quando clausa est, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
And he that goeth into the house, all the days that it is locked up, shall be unclean until the evening.
47 et qui dormierit in ea, et comederit quippiam, lavabit vestimenta sua.
And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes; and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
48 Quod si introiens sacerdos viderit lepram non crevisse in domo, postquam denuo lita fuerit, purificabit eam reddita sanitate:
But if the priest should come in, and see, and, behold, the plague have not spread in the house, after the house was plastered: then shall the priest pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
49 et in purificationem ejus sumet duos passeres, lignumque cedrinum, et vermiculum atque hyssopum:
And he shall take, to atone for the house, two birds, and cedar wood, and a string of scarlet yarn, and hyssop;
50 et immolato uno passere in vase fictili super aquas vivas,
And he shall kill the one bird in 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 shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet yarn, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle on 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 shall atone for 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 string of scarlet yarn;
53 Cumque dimiserit passerem avolare in agrum libere, orabit pro domo, et jure mundabitur.
But he shall let fly forth the living bird out of the city into the open field, and make [thus] an atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.
54 Ista est lex omnis lepræ et percussuræ,
This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,
55 lepræ vestium et domorum,
And for the leprosy of a garment and of a house,
56 cicatricis et erumpentium papularum, lucentis maculæ, et in varias species, coloribus immutatis,
And for a swelling, and for a rising, and for a bright spot;
57 ut possit sciri quo tempore mundum quid, vel immundum sit.
To teach on the day when something is unclean, and on the day when it is clean: this is the law of the leprosy.
