Leviticus 14

1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen 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 e 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 praecipiet ei qui purificatur ut offerat pro se duos passeres vivos quos vesci licitum est et lignum cedrinum vermiculumque et hysopum

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 e passeribus immolari iubebit 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 hysopo tinguet 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 iure 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 radat 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 adsumet duos agnos inmaculatos et ovem anniculam absque macula et tres decimas similae in sacrificium quae 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 haec 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 immolari solet 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 adsumensque sacerdos de sanguine hostiae quae immolata est pro delicto ponet super extremum auriculae dextrae eius qui mundatur et super pollices manus dextrae 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 tinguetque digitum dextrum in eo et asperget septies contra Dominum

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 leva manu fundet super extremum auriculae dextrae eius qui mundatur et super pollices manus ac pedis dextri et super sanguinem qui fusus 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 eius

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 eius invenire quae dicta sunt adsumet agnum pro delicto ad oblationem ut roget pro eo sacerdos decimamque partem similae conspersae 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 columbae quorum sit unus 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 suae 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 eius ponet super extremum auriculae dextrae illius qui mundatur et super pollices manus eius 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 tinguens digitum dextrae manus asperget septies contra Dominum

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 dextrae auriculae 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 quae 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 columbae 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 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen 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 leprae in aedibus

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 cuius est domus nuntians sacerdoti et dicet quasi plaga leprae 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 praecipiet ut efferant universa de domo priusquam ingrediatur eam et videat utrum lepra sit ne inmunda fiant omnia quae in domo sunt intrabitque postea ut consideret domus lepram

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 eam 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 iubebit erui lapides in quibus lepra est et proici eos extra civitatem in loco inmundo

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 rasurae extra urbem in loco inmundo

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 elatus 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 aspersos maculis lepra est perseverans et inmunda 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 eius ac ligna atque universum pulverem proicient extra oppidum in loco inmundo

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 inmundus 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 est 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 eius sumet duos passeres lignumque cedrinum et vermiculum atque hysopum

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 hysopum et coccum et passerem vivum et intinguet 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 hysopo 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 iure 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 leprae et percussurae

This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,

55 leprae vestium et domorum

And for the leprosy of a garment and of a house,

56 cicatricis et erumpentium papularum lucentis maculae et in varias species coloribus inmutatis

And for a swelling, and for a rising, and for a bright spot;

57 ut possit sciri quo tempore mundum quid vel inmundum 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.
