Leviticus 15
1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen et Aaron dicens
Yahweh also said to Moses/me and Aaron,
2 loquimini filiis Israhel et dicite eis vir qui patitur fluxum seminis inmundus erit
“Tell this to the Israelis: When an infected discharge comes out of a man’s sexual organs [EUP], that fluid should not be touched.
3 et tunc iudicabitur huic vitio subiacere cum per momenta singula adheserit carni illius atque concreverit foedus humor
Whether that fluid is blocked or continues to drip, it causes him to be someone who should not be touched.
4 omne stratum in quo dormierit inmundum erit et ubicumque sederit
“And any bed that such a man lies on should not be touched, and anything that he sits on should not be touched.
5 si quis hominum tetigerit lectum eius lavabit vestimenta sua et ipse lotus aqua inmundus erit usque ad vesperum

and anyone who touches the seat or saddle that he was sitting on also should not be touched until that evening. And anyone who picks up the seat or saddle must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
11 omnis quem tetigerit qui talis est non lotis ante manibus lavabit vestimenta sua et lotus aqua inmundus erit usque ad vesperum

13 si sanatus fuerit qui huiuscemodi sustinet passionem numerabit septem dies post emundationem sui et lotis vestibus ac toto corpore in aquis viventibus erit mundus
“If such a man is healed from his flow of fluid, he must wait for seven days. Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water from a spring. Then he will be able to be with others.
14 die autem octavo sumet duos turtures aut duos pullos columbae et veniet in conspectu Domini ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii dabitque eos sacerdoti
On the eighth/next day, he must take two doves or two young pigeons and come in front of Yahweh at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and give them to the priest.
15 qui faciet unum pro peccato et alterum in holocaustum rogabitque pro eo coram Domino ut emundetur a fluxu seminis sui
The priest will sacrifice them. One will be an offering for the man to become acceptable to God, and the other one will be completely burned [on the altar]. As a result of the priest doing that, the man will be forgiven for having sinned.
16 vir de quo egreditur semen coitus lavabit aqua omne corpus suum et inmundus erit usque ad vesperum

“If a man has sex with a woman [during that time] and some of the menstrual blood touches him, no one should touch him for seven days, and no one should touch the bed that he lies on.
25 mulier quae patitur multis diebus fluxum sanguinis non in tempore menstruali vel quae post menstruum sanguinem fluere non cessat quamdiu huic subiacet passioni inmunda erit quasi sit in tempore menstruo

30 qui unum faciet pro peccato et alterum in holocaustum rogabitque pro ea coram Domino et pro fluxu inmunditiae eius
The priest will sacrifice one of them to be an offering to enable her to become acceptable to Yahweh again, and completely burn the other one [on the altar]. By doing that he will cause me, Yahweh, to forgive her for having sinned [DOU].
31 docebitis ergo filios Israhel ut caveant inmunditiam et non moriantur in sordibus suis cum polluerint tabernaculum meum quod est inter eos
“You must warn the Israeli people not to do things that (defile them/cause them to be unacceptable to me). If they become (unacceptable to me/defiled), they will cause my Sacred Tent which is among them to become an unacceptable place to worship me, and as a result they will die.”
32 ista est lex eius qui patitur fluxum seminis et qui polluitur coitu
“Those are the regulations for a man who has a fluid that flows from his sexual organs or who should not be touched because some of his semen spills out while having sex [with a woman],
33 et quae menstruis temporibus separatur vel quae iugi fluit sanguine et hominis qui dormierit cum ea
and for any woman during her monthly menstrual period, and for any man who has sex with a woman during her menstrual period.”
