Leviticus 14

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And Jehovah speaketh unto 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 hath been brought in unto the priest,

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

and the priest hath gone out unto the outside of the camp, and the priest hath seen, and lo, the plague of leprosy hath 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 hath commanded, and he hath 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 hath commanded, and he hath slaughtered the one bird upon an earthen vessel, over running water;

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

[as to] the living bird, he taketh it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and hath 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 hath sprinkled on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and hath pronounced him clean, and hath sent out the living bird on 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 hath washed his garments, and hath shaved all his hair, and hath bathed with water, and hath been clean, and afterwards he doth come in unto the camp, and hath dwelt at the 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 hath been, on the seventh day — he shaveth all his hair, his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, even all his hair he doth shave, and he hath washed his garments, and hath bathed his flesh with water, and hath 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 taketh two lambs, perfect ones, and one ewe-lamb, daughter of a year, a perfect one, and three tenth deals 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 hath caused the man who is to be cleansed to stand with them before Jehovah, 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 hath taken the one he-lamb, and hath brought it near for a guilt-offering, also the log of oil, and hath waved them — a wave offering before Jehovah.

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 hath slaughtered the lamb in the place where he slaughtereth the sin-offering and the burnt-offering, in the holy place; for like the sin-offering the guilt-offering is 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 hath taken of the blood of the guilt-offering, and the priest hath put 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 hath taken of the log of oil, and hath poured on the left palm of the priest,

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

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

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 residue of the oil which [is] on his palm, the priest putteth 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 putteth on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest hath made atonement for him before Jehovah.

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

'And the priest hath made the sin-offering, and hath made atonement for him who is to be cleansed from his uncleanness, and afterwards he doth slaughter the burnt-offering;

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

and the priest hath caused the burnt-offering to ascend, also the present, on the altar, and the priest hath made atonement for him, and he hath 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 hath taken one lamb — a guilt-offering, for a wave-offering, to make atonement for him, and one-tenth deal 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 reacheth to, and one hath been a sin-offering, and the one a burnt-offering;

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

and he hath brought them in on the eighth day for his cleansing unto the priest, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, before Jehovah.

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

'And the priest hath taken the lamb of the guilt-offering, and the log of oil, and the priest hath waved them — a wave-offering before Jehovah;

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

and he hath slaughtered the lamb of the guilt-offering, and the priest hath taken of the blood of the guilt-offering, and hath put 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 doth pour of the oil on the left palm of the priest;

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

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

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 hath 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 the remnant of the oil which [is] on the palm of the priest he doth put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him, before Jehovah.

30 et turturem sive pullum columbæ offeret,

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

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

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

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 reacheth not to his cleansing.'

33 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:

And Jehovah speaketh 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 in unto 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 hath he whose the house [is] come in and declared to the priest, saying, As a plague hath 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 hath commanded, and they have prepared the house before the priest cometh in to see the plague (that all which [is] in the house be not unclean), and afterwards doth the priest come in to see the house;

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

and he hath seen the plague, and lo, the plague [is] in the walls of the house, hollow strakes, very green or very red, and their appearance [is] lower than the wall,

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

and the priest hath gone out of the house unto the opening of the house, and hath shut up the house seven days.

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

'And the priest hath turned back on the seventh day, and hath seen, and lo, the plague hath 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 hath commanded, and they have drawn out the stones in which the plague [is], and have cast them unto the outside of the city, unto an unclean place;

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

and the house he doth cause to be scraped within round about, 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] in unto the place of the stones, and other clay he taketh and hath daubed the house.

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

'And if the plague return, and hath broken out in the house, after he hath drawn out the stones, and after the scraping of the house, and after the daubing;

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

then hath the priest come in and seen, and lo, the plague hath 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 hath broken down the house, its stones, and its wood, and all the clay of the house, and he hath brought [them] forth unto the outside of the city, unto an unclean place.

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

'And he who is going in unto the house all the days he hath shut it up, is unclean till the evening;

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

and he who is lying in the house doth wash his garments; and he who is eating in the house doth wash 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 come in, and hath seen, and lo, the plague hath not spread in the house after the daubing of the house, then hath the priest pronounced the house clean, for the plague hath been healed.

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

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

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

and he hath slaughtered the one bird upon 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 hath taken the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and hath dipped them in the blood of the slaughtered bird, and in the running water, and hath sprinkled upon 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 hath 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 hath sent away the living bird unto the outside of the city unto the face of the field, and hath made atonement for the house, and it hath been clean.

54 Ista est lex omnis lepræ et percussuræ,

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

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.'
