Leviticus 13

1 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen et Aaron dicens

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,

2 homo in cuius carne et cute ortus fuerit diversus color sive pustula aut quasi lucens quippiam id est plaga leprae adducetur ad Aaron sacerdotem vel ad unum quemlibet filiorum eius

If any man should have in the skin of his flesh a bright clear spot, and there should be in the skin of his flesh a plague of leprosy, he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to 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 shall view the spot in the skin of his flesh; and [if] the hair in the spot be changed [to] white, and the appearance of the spot be below the skin of the flesh, it is a plague of leprosy; and the priest shall look upon it, 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

But if the spot be clear and white in the skin of his flesh, yet the appearance of it be not deep below the skin, and its hair have not changed [itself for] white hair, but it is dark, then the priest shall separate [him that has] the spot seven days;

5 et considerabit die septimo et siquidem lepra ultra non creverit nec transierit in cute priores terminos rursum includet eum septem diebus aliis

and the priest shall look on the spot the seventh day; and, behold, [if] the spot remains before him, [if] the spot has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall separate him the second time 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 shall look upon him the second time on the seventh day; and, behold, [if] the spot be dark, [and] the spot have not spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is a [mere] mark, and the man shall wash his garments and be clean.

7 quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est et redditus munditiae iterum lepra creverit adducetur ad eum

But if the bright spot should have changed and spread in the skin, after the priest has seen him for the purpose of purifying him, then shall he appear the second time to the priest,

8 et inmunditiae condemnabitur

and the priest shall look upon him; and, behold, [if] the mark have spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy.

9 plaga leprae si fuerit in homine adducetur ad sacerdotem

And if a man have a plague of leprosy, then he shall come to the priest;

10 et videbit eum cumque color albus in cute fuerit et capillorum mutarit aspectum ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit

and the priest shall look, and, behold, if it is a white spot in the skin, and it has changed the hair to white, and [there be] some of the sound part of the quick flesh in the sore—

11 lepra vetustissima iudicabitur atque inolita cuti contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos et non recludet quia perspicue inmunditia est

it is a leprosy waxing old in the skin of the flesh; and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall separate him, because he is unclean.

12 sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute et operuerit omnem carnem a capite usque ad pedes quicquid sub aspectu oculorum cadit

And if the leprosy should have come out very evidently in the skin, and the leprosy should cover all the skin of the patient from the head to the feet, wherever the priest shall look;

13 considerabit eum sacerdos et teneri lepra mundissima iudicabit eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit et idcirco homo mundus erit

then the priest shall look, and, behold, the leprosy has covered all the skin of the flesh; and the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague, because it has changed all to white, it is clean.

14 quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit

But on whatever day the quick flesh shall appear on him, he shall be pronounced unclean.

15 tunc sacerdotis iudicio polluetur et inter inmundos reputabitur caro enim viva si lepra aspergatur inmunda est

And the priest shall look upon the sound flesh, and the sound flesh shall prove him to be unclean; for it is unclean, it is a leprosy.

16 quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem et totum hominem operuerit

But if the sound flesh be restored and changed [to] white, then shall he come to the priest;

17 considerabit eum sacerdos et mundum esse decernet

and the priest shall see [him], and, behold, [if] the plague is turned white, then the priest shall pronounce the patient clean: he is clean.

18 caro et cutis in qua ulcus natum est et sanatum

And if the flesh should have become an ulcer in his skin, and should be healed,

19 et in loco ulceris cicatrix apparuerit alba sive subrufa adducetur homo ad sacerdotem

and there should be in the place of the ulcer a white sore, or [one] looking white and bright, or fiery, and it shall be 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 ulcere

then the priest shall look, and, behold, if the appearance be beneath the skin, and its hair has changed to white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; because it is a leprosy, it has broken out in the ulcer.

21 quod si pilus coloris est pristini et cicatrix subobscura et vicina carne non est humilior recludet eum septem diebus

But if the priest look, and behold there is no white hair on it, and it be not below the skin of the flesh, and it be dark-coloured; then the priest shall separate him seven days.

22 et siquidem creverit adiudicabit eum leprae

But if it manifestly spread over the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosy; it has broken out in the ulcer.

23 sin autem steterit in loco suo ulceris est cicatrix et homo mundus erit

But if the bright spot should remain in its place and not spread, it is the scar of the ulcer; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.

24 caro et cutis quam ignis exuserit et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem

And if the flesh be in his skin [in a state of] fiery inflammation, and there should be in his skin the part which is healed of the inflammation, bright, clear, and white, suffused with red or very white;

25 considerabit eam sacerdos et ecce versa est in alborem et locus eius reliqua cute humilior contaminabit eum quia plaga leprae in cicatrice orta est

then the priest shall look upon him, and, behold, [if] the hair being white is changed to a bright colour, and its appearance is lower than the skin, it is a leprosy; it has broken out in the inflammation, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosy.

26 quod si pilorum color non fuerit inmutatus nec humilior plaga carne reliqua et ipsa leprae species fuerit subobscura recludet eum septem diebus

But if the priest should look, and, behold, there is not in the bright spot any white hair, and it should not be lower than the skin, and it should be dark, then the priest shall separate him seven days.

27 et die septimo contemplabitur si creverit in cute lepra contaminabit eum

And the priest shall look upon him on the seventh day; and if the spot be much spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosy, it has broken out in the ulcer.

28 sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus plaga conbustionis est et idcirco mundabitur quia cicatrix est conbusturae

But if the bright spot remain stationary, and be not spread in the skin, but [the sore] should be dark, it is a scar of inflammation; and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is the mark of the inflammation.

29 vir sive mulier in cuius capite vel barba germinarit lepra videbit eos sacerdos

And if a man or a woman have in them a plague of leprosy in the head or the beard;

30 et siquidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua et capillus flavus solitoque subtilior contaminabit eos quia lepra capitis ac barbae est

then the priest shall look on the plague, and, behold, [if] the appearance of it be beneath the skin, and in it there be thin yellowish hair, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a scurf, it is a leprosy of the head or a leprosy of the beard.

31 sin autem viderit et locum maculae aequalem vicinae carni et capillum nigrum recludet eos septem diebus

And if the priest should see the plague of the scurf, and, behold, the appearance of it be not beneath the skin, and there is no yellowish hair in it, then the priest shall set apart [him that has] the plague of the scurf 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 shall look at the plague on the seventh day; and, behold, [if] the scurf be not spread, and there be no yellowish hair on it, and the appearance of the scurf is not hollow under the skin;

33 radetur homo absque loco maculae et includetur septem diebus aliis

then the skin shall be shaven, but the scurf shall not be shaven; and the priest shall set aside the person having the scurf the second time for seven days.

34 si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo nec humilior carne reliqua mundabit eum lotisque vestibus mundus erit

And the priest shall see the scurf on the seventh day; and, behold, [if] the scurf is not spread in the skin after the man's being shaved, and the appearance of the scurf is not hollow beneath the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; and he shall wash his garments, and be clean.

35 sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute

But if the scurf be indeed spread in the skin after he has been purified,

36 non quaeret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit commutatus quia aperte inmundus est

then the priest shall look, and, behold, [if] the scurf be spread in the skin, the priest shall not examine concerning the yellow hair, for he is unclean.

37 porro si steterit macula et capilli nigri fuerint noverit hominem esse sanatum et confidenter eum pronuntiet mundum

But if the scurf remain before [him] in its place, and a dark hair should have arisen in it, the scurf is healed: he is clean, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.

38 vir et mulier in cuius cute candor apparuerit

And if a man or woman should have in the skin of their flesh spots of a bright whiteness,

39 intuebitur eos sacerdos si deprehenderit subobscurum alborem lucere in cute sciat non esse lepram sed maculam coloris candidi et hominem mundum

then the priest shall look; and, behold, there [being] bright spots of a bright whiteness in the skin of their flesh, it is a tetter; it burst forth in the skin of his flesh; he is clean.

40 vir de cuius capite capilli fluunt calvus ac mundus est

And if any one's head should lose the hair, he is [only] bald, he is clean.

41 et si a fronte ceciderint pili recalvaster et mundus est

And if his head should lose the hair in front, he is forehead bald: he is clean.

42 sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus

And if there should be in his baldness of head, or his baldness of forehead, a white or fiery plague, it is leprosy in his baldness of head, or baldness of forehead.

43 et hoc sacerdos viderit condemnabit eum haut dubiae leprae quae orta est in calvitio

And the priest shall look upon him, and, behold, if the appearance of the plague be white or inflamed in his baldness of head or baldness in front, as the appearance of leprosy in the skin of his flesh,

44 quicumque ergo maculatus fuerit lepra et separatus ad arbitrium sacerdotis

he is a leprous man: the priest shall surely pronounce him unclean, his plague is in his head.

45 habebit vestimenta dissuta caput nudum os veste contectum contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit

And the leper in whom the plague is, let his garments be ungirt, and his head uncovered; and let him have a covering put upon his mouth, and he shall be called unclean.

46 omni tempore quo leprosus est et inmundus solus habitabit extra castra

All the days in which the plague shall be upon him, being unclean, he shall be [esteemed] unclean; he shall dwell apart, his place of sojourn shall be without the camp.

47 vestis lanea sive linea quae lepram habuerit

And if a garment have in it the plague of leprosy, a garment of wool, or a garment of flax,

48 in stamine atque subtemine aut certe pellis vel quicquid ex pelle confectum est

either in the warp or in the woof, or in the linen, or in the woollen threads, or in a skin, or in any workmanship of skin,

49 si alba aut rufa macula fuerit infecta lepra reputabitur ostendeturque sacerdoti

and the plague be greenish or reddish in the skin, or in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any utensil of skin, it is a plague of leprosy, and he shall show it to the priest.

50 qui consideratam recludet septem diebus

And the priest shall look upon the plague, and the priest shall set apart [that which has] the plague seven days.

51 et die septimo rursus aspiciens si crevisse deprehenderit lepra perseverans est pollutum iudicabit vestimentum et omne in quo fuerit inventa

And the priest shall look upon the plague on the seventh day; and if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp or in the woof, or in the skin, in whatever things skins may be used in their workmanship, the plague is a confirmed leprosy; it is unclean.

52 et idcirco conburetur flammis

He shall burn the garment, either the warp or woof in woollen garments or in flaxen, or in any utensil of skin, in which there may be the plague; because it is a confirmed leprosy; it shall be burnt with fire.

53 quod si eam viderit non crevisse

And if the priest should see, and the plague be not spread in the garments, either in the warp or in the woof, or in any utensil of skin,

54 praecipiet et lavabunt id in quo lepra est recludetque illud septem diebus aliis

then the priest shall give directions, and [one] shall wash that on which there may have been the plague, and the priest shall set it aside a second time for seven days.

55 et cum viderit faciem quidem pristinam non reversam nec tamen crevisse lepram inmundum iudicabit et igne conburet eo quod infusa sit in superficie vestimenti vel per totum lepra

And the priest shall look upon it after the plague has been washed; and [if] this, even the plague, has not changed its appearance, and the plague does not spread, it is unclean; it shall be burnt with fire: it is fixed in the garment, in the warp, or in the woof.

56 sin autem obscurior fuerit locus leprae postquam vestis est lota abrumpet eum et a solido dividet

And if the priest should look, and the spot be dark after it has been washed, he shall tear it off from the garment, either from the warp or from the woof, or from the skin.

57 quod si ultra apparuerit in his locis quae prius inmaculata erant lepra volatilis et vaga debet igne conburi

And if it should still appear in the garment, either in the warp or in the woof, or in any article of skin, it is a leprosy bursting forth: that wherein is the plague shall be burnt with fire.

58 si cessaverit lavabit ea quae pura sunt secundo et munda erunt

And the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or any article of skin, which shall be washed, and the plague depart from it, shall also be washed again, and shall be clean.

59 ista est lex leprae vestimenti lanei et linei staminis atque subteminis omnisque supellectilis pelliciae quomodo mundari debeat vel contaminari

This is the law of the plague of leprosy of a woollen or linen garment, either of the warp, or woof, or any leather article, to pronounce it clean or unclean.
