Leviticus 13
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron, dicens:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,
2 Homo, in cuius cute et carne ortus fuerit diversus color sive pustula, aut quasi lucens quippiam, id est plaga leprae, adducetur ad Aaron sacerdotem, vel ad unum quemlibet filiorum eius.
'When a man hath in the skin of his flesh a rising, or scab, or bright spot, and it hath become in the skin of his flesh a leprous plague, then he hath been brought in unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests;
3 Qui cum viderit lepram in cute, et pilos in album mutatos colorem. ipsamque speciem leprae humiliorem cute et carne reliqua; plaga leprae est, et ad arbitrium eius separabitur.
and the priest hath seen the plague in the skin of the flesh, and the hair in the plague hath turned white, and the appearance of the plague [is] deeper than the skin of his flesh — it [is] a plague of leprosy, and the priest hath seen him, and hath pronounced him unclean.
4 Sin autem lucens candor fuerit in cute, nec humilior carne reliqua, et pili coloris pristini, recludet eum sacerdos septem diebus,
'And if the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and its hair hath not turned white, then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague seven days.
5 et considerabit die septimo: et siquidem lepra ultra non creverit, nec transierit in cute priores terminos, rursum recludet eum septem diebus aliis.
'And the priest hath seen him on the seventh day, and lo, the plague hath stood in his eyes, the plague hath not spread in the skin, and the priest hath shut him up a second seven 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.
'And the priest hath seen him on the second seventh day, and lo, the plague is become weak, and the plague hath not spread in the skin — and the priest hath pronounced him clean, it [is] a scab, and he hath washed his garments, and hath been clean.
7 Quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est, et redditus munditiae, iterum lepra creverit; adducetur ad eum,
'And if the scab spread greatly in the skin, after his being seen by the priest for his cleansing, then he hath been seen a second time by the priest;
8 et immunditiae condemnabitur.
and the priest hath seen, and lo, the scab hath spread in the skin, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] leprosy.
9 Plaga leprae si fuerit in homine, adducetur ad sacerdotem,
'When a plague of leprosy is in a man, then he hath been brought in unto the priest,
10 et videbit eum. Cumque color albus in cute fuerit, et capillorum mutaverit aspectum, ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit:
and the priest hath seen, and lo, a white rising in the skin, and it hath turned the hair white, and a quickening of raw flesh [is] in the rising, —
11 lepra vetustissima iudicabitur, atque inolita cuti. Contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos, et non recludet, quia perspicuae immunditiae est.
an old leprosy it [is] in the skin of his flesh, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; he doth not shut him up, for he [is] unclean.
12 Sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute, et operuerit omnem carnem a capite usque ad pedes, quidquid sub aspectum oculorum cadit,
'And if the leprosy break out greatly in the skin, and the leprosy hath covered all the skin of [him who hath] the plague, from his head even unto his feet, to all that appeareth to the eyes of the priest,
13 considerabit eum sacerdos, et teneri lepra mundissima iudicabit: eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit, et idcirco homo mundus erit.
then hath the priest seen, and lo, the leprosy hath covered all his flesh, and he hath pronounced [him who hath] the plague clean; it hath all turned white; he [is] clean.
14 Quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit,
'And in the day of raw flesh being seen in him he is unclean;
15 tunc sacerdotis iudicio polluetur, et inter immundos reputabitur. caro enim viva si lepra aspergitur, immunda est.
and the priest hath seen the raw flesh, and hath pronounced him unclean; the raw flesh is unclean, it [is] leprosy.
16 Quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem, et totum hominem operuerit,
Or when the raw flesh turneth back, and hath been turned to white, then he hath come in unto the priest,
17 considerabit eum sacerdos, et mundum esse decernet.
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the plague hath been turned to white, and the priest hath pronounced clean [him who hath] the plague; he [is] clean.
18 Caro autem et cutis in qua ulcus natum est et sanatum,
'And when flesh hath in it, in its skin, an ulcer, and it hath been healed,
19 et in loco hulceris cicatrix alba apparuerit, sive subrufa, adducetur homo ad sacerdotem:
and there hath been in the place of the ulcer a white rising, or a bright white spot, very red, then it hath been seen by the priest,
20 qui cum viderit locum leprae humiliorem carne reliqua, et pilos versos in candorem, contaminabit eum: plaga enim leprae orta est in hulcere.
and the priest hath seen, and lo, its appearance [is] lower than the skin, and its hair hath turned white, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy — in an ulcer it hath broken out.
21 Quod si pilus coloris est pristini, et cicatrix subobscura, et vicina carne non est humilior, recludet eum septem diebus.
'And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair in it, and it is not lower than the skin, and is become weak, then hath the priest shut him up seven days;
22 et si quidem creverit, adiudicabit eum leprae.
and if it spread greatly in the skin, then hath the priest pronounced him unclean, it [is] a plague;
23 sin autem steterit in loco suo, hulceris est cicatrix, et homo mundus erit.
and if in its place the bright spot stay — it hath not spread — it [is] an inflammation of the ulcer; and the priest hath pronounced him clean.
24 Caro autem et cutis, quam ignis exusserit, et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem,
'Or when flesh hath in its skin a fiery burning, and the quickening of the burning, the bright white spot, hath been very red or white,
25 considerabit eam sacerdos, et ecce versa est in alborem, et locus eius reliqua cute est humilior: contaminabit eum, quia plaga leprae in cicatrice orta est.
and the priest hath seen it, and lo, the hair hath turned white in the bright spot, and its appearance [is] deeper than the skin; leprosy it [is], in the burning it hath broken out, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy.
26 Quod si pilorum color non fuerit immutatus, nec humilior plaga carne reliqua, et ipsa leprae species fuerit subobscura, recludet eum septem diebus,
'And if the priest see it, and lo, there is no white hair on the bright spot, and it is not lower than the skin, and it is become weak, then the priest hath shut him up seven days;
27 et die septimo contemplabitur: si creverit in cute lepra, contaminabit eum.
and the priest hath seen him on the seventh day, if it spread greatly in the skin, then the priest hath pronounced him unclean; a plague of leprosy it [is].
28 sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus, plaga combustionis est, et idcirco mundabitur, quia cicatrix est combusturae.
'And if the bright spot stay in its place, it hath not spread in the skin, and is become weak; a rising of the burning it [is], and the priest hath pronounced him clean; for it [is] inflammation of the burning.
29 Vir, sive mulier, in cuius capite vel barba germinaverit lepra, videbit eos sacerdos.
'And when a man (or a woman) hath in him a plague in the head or in the beard,
30 et si quidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua, et capillus flavus, solitoque subtilior; contaminabit eos, quia lepra capitis ac barbae est.
then hath the priest seen the plague, and lo, its appearance is deeper than the skin, and in it a thin shining hair, and the priest hath pronounced him unclean; it [is] a scall — it [is] a leprosy of the head or of the beard.
31 Sin autem viderit locum maculae aequalem vicinae carni, et capillum nigrum: recludet eum septem diebus,
'And when the priest seeth the plague of the scall, and lo, its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then hath the priest shut up [him who hath] the plague of the scall seven days.
32 et die septimo intuebitur. Si non creverit macula, et capillus sui coloris est, et locus plagae carni reliquae aequalis:
'And the priest hath seen the plague on the seventh day, and lo, the scall hath not spread, and a shining hair hath not been in it, and the appearance of the scall is not deeper than the skin,
33 radetur homo absque loco maculae, et includetur septem diebus aliis.
then he hath shaved himself, but the scall he doth not shave; and the priest hath shut up [him who hath] the scall a second seven days.
34 Si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo, nec humilior carne reliqua, mundabit eum, lotisque vestibus suis mundus erit.
And the priest hath seen the scall on the seventh day, and lo, the scall hath not spread in the skin, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and the priest hath pronounced him clean, and he hath washed his garments, and hath been clean.
35 Sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute,
'And if the scall spread greatly in the skin after his cleansing,
36 non quaeret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit commutatus, quia aperte immundus est.
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the scall hath spread in the skin, the priest seeketh not for the shining hair, he is unclean;
37 Porro si steterit macula, et capilli nigri fuerint, noverit hominem sanatum esse, et confidenter eum pronunciet mundum.
and if in his eyes the scall hath stayed, and black hair hath sprung up in it, the scall hath been healed — he [is] clean — and the priest hath pronounced him clean.
38 Vir, sive mulier, in cuius cute candor apparuerit,
'And when a man or woman hath in the skin of their flesh bright spots, 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.
and the priest hath seen, and lo, in the skin of their flesh white weak bright spots, it [is] a freckled spot broken out in the skin; he [is] clean.
40 Vir, de cuius capite capilli fluunt, calvus et mundus est:
'And when a man's head [is] polished, he [is] bald, he [is] clean;
41 et si a fronte ceciderint pili, recalvaster et mundus est.
and if from the corner of his face his head is polished, he [is] bald of the forehead; he [is] clean.
42 Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus,
'And when there is in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, a very red white plague, it [is] a leprosy breaking out in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead;
43 et hoc sacerdos viderit, condemnabit eum haud dubiae leprae, quae orta est in calvitio.
and the priest hath seen him, and lo, the rising of the very red white plague in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, [is] as 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 priest doth pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague [is] in his head.
45 habebit vestimenta dissuta, caput nudum, os veste contectum, contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit.
'As to the leper in whom [is] the plague, his garments are rent, and his head is uncovered, and he covereth over the upper lip, and 'Unclean! unclean!' he calleth;
46 Omni tempore quo leprosus est, et immundus, solus habitabit extra castra.
all the days that the plague [is] in him he is unclean; he [is] unclean, alone he doth dwell, at the outside of the camp [is] his dwelling.
47 Vestis lanea sive linea, quae lepram habuerit
'And when there is in any garment a plague of leprosy, — in a garment of wool, or in a garment of linen,
48 in stamine atque subtegmine, aut certe pellis, vel quidquid ex pelle confectum est,
or in the warp, or in the woof, of linen or of wool, or in a skin, or in any work of skin,
49 si alba vel rufa macula fuerit infecta, lepra reputabitur, ostendeturque sacerdoti.
and the plague hath been very green or very red in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin, it [is] a plague of leprosy, and it hath been shewn the priest.
50 qui consideratam recludet septem diebus:
'And the priest hath seen the plague, and hath shut up [that which hath] the plague, seven days;
51 et die septimo rursus aspiciens si deprehenderit crevisse, lepra perseverans est: pollutum iudicabit vestimentum, et omne in quo fuerit inventa:
and he hath seen the plague on the seventh day, and the plague hath spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, of all that is made of skin for work; the plague [is] a fretting leprosy, it [is] unclean.
52 et idcirco comburetur flammis.
'And he hath burnt the garment, or the warp, or the woof, in wool or in linen, or any vessel of skin in which the plague is; for it [is] a fretting leprosy; with fire it is burnt.
53 Quod si eam viderit non crevisse,
'And if the priest see, and lo, the plague hath not spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin,
54 praecipiet, et lavabunt id, in quo lepra est, recludetque illud septem diebus aliis.
then hath the priest commanded, and they have washed that in which the plague [is], and he hath shut it up a second seven days.
55 Et cum viderit faciem quidem pristinam non reversam, nec tamen crevisse lepram, immundum iudicabit, et igne comburet, eo quod infusa sit in superficie vestimenti vel per totum, lepra.
And the priest hath seen [that which hath] the plague after it hath been washed, and lo, the plague hath not changed its aspect, and the plague hath not spread, — it [is] unclean; with fire thou dost burn it; it [is] a fretting in its back-part or in its front-part.
56 Sin autem obscurior fuerit locus leprae, postquam vestis est lota, abrumpet eum, et a solido dividet.
'And if the priest hath seen, and lo, the plague [is] become weak after it hath been washed, then he hath rent 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, quae prius immaculata erant, lepra volatilis et vaga: debet igne comburi.
and if it still be seen in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin, it [is] a fretting; with fire thou dost burn it — that in which the plague [is].
58 si cessaverit, lavabit aqua ea, quae pura sunt, secundo, et munda erunt.
'And the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or any vessel of skin which thou dost wash when the plague hath turned aside from them, then it hath been washed a second time, and hath been clean.
59 Ista est lex leprae vestimenti lanei et linei, staminis, atque subtegminis, omnisque supellectilis pelliceae, quomodo mundari debeat, vel contaminari.
'This [is] the law of a plague of leprosy [in] a garment of wool or of linen, or of the warp or of the woof, or of any vessel of skin, to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean.'
