Lewwota 13
1 Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;
The Lord told Moses and Aaron,
2 “Namni yoo gogaa dhagna isaa irraa iitoo yookaan finniisa yookaan baarolee qabaatee wanni sun gogaa dhagna isaa irratti gara lamxiitti geeddarame, namichi sun gara Aroon lubichaatti yookaan ilmaan isaa luboota keessaa gara isa tokkootti haa geeffamu.
“Anyone who has a swelling, a rash, or a spot on the skin that may be an infectious skin disease must be taken to Aaron the priest or to one of his descendants.
3 Lubni sun madaa gogaa dhagna namichaa irra jiru haa qoru; yoo rifeensi madaa sana irra jiru addaatee madaan sun gogaa keessa darbee foonitti gad seene, dhukkubni sun dhukkuba lamxii ti. Lubichis erga isa qoree booddee akka inni akka seeraatti xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu.
The priest will inspect whatever is on the skin. If the hair there has turned white and if the issue seems to be more than something on the surface, it is a serious skin disease, and the priest who inspects it will declare the person unclean.
4 Yoo baaroleen gogaa namichaa irra jiru addaatee garuu gogaa keessa darbee foonitti gad hin seenin, yoo rifeensi madaa sana irra jirus hin addaatin, lubichi namicha madaaʼe sana bultii torba kophaatti baasee haa tursu.
But if the spot is only a white discoloration and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and if the hair on the spot has not turned white, the priest will place the person in isolation for seven days.
5 Bultii torbaffaatti immoo lubichi isa haa qoru; lubni yoo akka madaan sun hin geeddaraminii fi akka inni gogaa namichaa irra hin faffacaʼin arge ammas bultii torba kophaatti baasee isa haa tursu.
On the seventh day the priest will conduct another inspection, and if he discovers that the spot hasn't changed and hasn't spread on the skin, the priest must place the person in isolation for another seven days.
6 Amma illee lubichi bultii torbaffaatti namicha haa qoru; kunoo, yoo madaan sun qooree gogaa irra hin faffacaʼin, lubichi akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu; wanni sun cittoo dha. Namichi wayyaa isaa haa miiccatu; inni ni qulqullaaʼa.
On the seventh day after this the priest will inspect it again. If the spot has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest will declare the person clean since it was a rash. They must wash their clothes and will be clean.
7 Garuu inni erga qulqulluu taʼuun isaa akka labsamuuf lubatti of argisiisee booddee yoo cittoon sun gogaa isaa irra faffacaʼe inni amma illee lubatti of argisiisuu qaba.
However, if the rash does spread after the person has been inspected by the priest and has been declared clean, the person must go back to be inspected again.
8 Lubichis isa haa qoru; yoo cittoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼee jiraate lubichi akka inni xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; wanni kun lamxii dha.
If the priest discovers that the rash has spread, he must declare the person unclean because it is certainly a skin disease.
9 “Namni yoo lamxii qabaate inni lubatti fidamuu qaba.
Anyone who develops an infectious skin disease must be taken to the priest.
10 Lubichi isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo iiti adiin kan rifeensa addeesse gogaa irra jiraatee fi foon iita sanaa diimatee mulʼate,
The priest will inspect them, and if there is a white swelling on the skin and the hair there has turned white, and there is an open wound in the swelling,
11 wanni sun dhukkuba gogaa kan hin fayyinee dha; lubichis akka namichi xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu. Waan inni duraanuu xuraaʼaa taʼeef lubichi kophaatti baasee isa tursuun barbaachisaa miti.
it is a serious skin disease and the priest must declare them unclean. He doesn't need to place the person in isolation because they are unclean.
12 “Dhukkubni sun hamma lubni arguu dandaʼutti gogaa isaa irra yoo faffacaʼee gogaa namicha madaaʼe sanaa mataadhaa hamma miillaatti haguuge,
However, if the skin disease affects all their skin so that it covers their skin from head to toe, everywhere the priest can see,
13 lubichi isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo dhukkubni sun guutumaan guutuutti dhagna namichaa wal gaʼe inni akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu. Waan dhagni isaa guutuun addaateef namichi sun qulqulluu dha.
the priest shall inspect them, and if the disease has covered their entire body, he will declare the person clean. As it has all turned white, they are clean.
14 Inni garuu yeroo iita foon isaa keessaan diimatee mulʼatu qabaatu xuraaʼaa dha.
But if when someone's inspected an open wound is found, they will be unclean.
15 Lubichi yeroo foon diimatee mulʼatu argutti akka namichi sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; foon diimate xuraaʼaa dha; namichis lamxii qaba.
When the priest discovers an open wound, he must declare the person unclean. The open wound is unclean; it is an infectious skin disease.
16 Yookaan yoo foon diimaan geeddaramee addaate namichi lubatti of argisiisuu haa dhaqu.
But if the open wound heals and becomes white, the person must go back to the priest.
17 Lubnis isa haa qoru; yoo madaan sun addaate lubichi akka namichi madaaʼe sun qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu; namichis ni qulqullaaʼa.
The priest will inspect them again, and if the wound has turned white, the priest is to declare the person clean; then they are clean.
18 “Namni gogaa isaa irraa dhullaa yoo qabaatee dhullaan sun fayyee jiraate,
When a boil comes up on someone's skin and then it heals,
19 yoo iddoo dhullaan ture sanatti iiti adiin yookaan baaroleen diimaan adiin mulʼate inni lubatti of haa argisiisu.
and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot appears in its place, they must show themselves to the priest.
20 Lubnis isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo wanni sun waan gogaa keessa darbee foon seene fakkaatee rifeensi isa keessaas addaate lubichi akka inni xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu. Wanni kun dhukkuba lamxii iddoo dhullaan turetti baʼee dha.
The priest shall inspect it, and if it seems to be more than something on the surface, and if the hair there has turned white, the priest shall declare him unclean. It is a serious skin disease that has infected the boil.
21 Garuu yommuu lubni baarolee sana qorutti, kunoo yoo rifeensi adiin irra hin jiraatinii fi yoo baaroleen sun utuu gogaa darbee foon hin seenin qooree jiraate lubni kophaatti baasee bultii torba isa haa tursu.
However, if when the priest inspects it, it doesn't have white hair in it and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and has faded, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
22 Yoo baaroleen sun gogaa irra faffacaʼe, lubichi akka namni sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; kun dhukkuba namatti darbuu dha.
If then the spot has spread further on the skin, the priest will declare them unclean; it is a disease.
23 Garuu baaroleen sun yoo hin geeddaraminii fi yoo hin faffacaʼin, inni godaannisa dhullaa sanaa ti; lubnis akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu.
But if the spot stays the same and doesn't spread, it's just the scar from the boil, and the priest will declare them clean.
24 “Yoo namni gogaa isaa irraa gubaa qabaatee foon diimaa iddoo gubamaa sanaa irratti baaroleen diimaan adiin yookaan adiin mulʼate,
If someone has a burn on their skin and where it's raw changes into a reddish-white or white spot,
25 lubni baarolee sana haa qoru; kunoo yoo rifeensi achi irra jiru addaatee baaroleen sunis gogaa keessa darbee foon seene wanni kun lamxii iddoo gubate sana irratti baʼuu dha. Lubichi akka namni sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; dhukkubni kun dhukkuba lamxii ti.
the priest must inspect it. If the hair in the spot has turned white and the spot seems to be more than something on the surface, it is a serious skin disease that has infected the burn, and the priest who inspects it will declare the person unclean. It is an infectious skin disease.
26 Garuu yoo lubni iddoo gubate sana qoree rifeensi adiin baarolee sana irra hin jiraatinii fi yoo baaroleen sun utuu gogaa keessa darbee foon hin seenin qooree jiraate lubichi namicha sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.
However, if when the priest inspects it, it doesn't have white hair in it and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, and has faded, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
27 Guyyaa torbaffaatti lubichi isa haa qoru; yoo baaroleen sun gogaa irra faffacaʼee jiraate lubni sun akka namichi xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; dhukkubni kun dhukkuba lamxii ti.
On the seventh day the priest will inspect the person again. If then the spot has spread further on the skin, the priest will declare them unclean; it is a serious skin disease.
28 Taʼus yoo baaroleen sun hin geeddaraminii fi utuu gogaa irra hin faffacaʼin bade wanni kun iitoo gubaa sana keessa baʼee dha. Lubichi akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu; wanni kun godaannisa gubaa sanaa ti.
But if the spot stays the same and hasn't spread on the skin, but has faded, it's the swelling from the burn, and the priest will declare them clean because it's just the scar from the burn.
29 “Yoo dhiirri yookaan dubartiin mataa irraa yookaan areeda irraa madaa qabaatan,
If someone, man or woman, has a sore on the head or chin,
30 lubni madaa sana haa qoru; kunoo yoo madaan sun gogaa keessa darbee foon seenee rifeensi achi irra jiru keelloo fakkaatee qaqalʼate, lubichi akka namichi sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; kun hooqxoo mataa yookaan areedaa kan namatti darbuu dha.
the priest shall inspect it, and if it appears to be more than superficial and the hair in it has become pale and thin, the priest must declare them unclean; it is an infection producing scabs, a serious disease of the head or chin.
31 Garuu yeroo lubni madaa akkanaa qorutti kunoo yoo madaan sun waan gogaa darbee foon seene hin fakkaatinii fi yoo rifeensi gurraachi tokko iyyuu madaa sana irra hin jiraatin lubni sun namicha hooqxoon qabe sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.
However, if the priest inspects the scabby infection and it doesn't seem to be more than superficial and has no pale hair in it, the priest is to place the person in isolation for seven days.
32 Guyyaa torbaffaatti lubni madaa sana haa qoru; kunoo yoo hooqxoon sun hin faffacaʼin, yoo rifeensi keelloon achi irra hin jiraatinii fi hooqxoon sun waan gogaa keessa darbee foon seene hin fakkaatin,
On the seventh day the priest will inspect the person again and if the scabby infection has not spread and there is no pale hair in it, and it doesn't seem to be more than superficial,
33 namichi sun iddoo madaaʼe sana qofa dhiisee mataa isaa haa haadatu; lubni sunis ammas namicha sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.
then the person must shave themselves except for the scaly area. The priest is to place the person in isolation for another seven days.
34 Guyyaa torbaffaattis lubni sun hooqxoo sana haa qoru; kunoo yoo hooqxoon sun gogaa irra hin faffacaʼinii fi waan gogaa keessa darbee foon seene hin fakkaatin lubichi akka namichi sun qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu; namichi wayyaa isaa haa miiccatu; innis ni qulqullaaʼa.
On the seventh day the priest will inspect the scabby infection, and if it has not spread on the skin and doesn't seem to be more than superficial, the priest is to pronounce the person clean. They must wash their clothes and will be clean.
35 Garuu erga akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe labsamee booddee yoo hooqxoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼe,
However, if the scabby infection has spread on the skin after been declared clean,
36 lubni isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo hooqxoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼee jiraate lubichi rifeensa keelloo sakattaʼuu hin qabu; namichi sun xuraaʼaa dha.
the priest must inspect them, and if the scabby infection has indeed spread on the skin, the priest doesn't need to check for pale hair; the person is unclean.
37 Garuu akka hubannaa lubichaatti hooqxoon sun geeddaramuu baatee rifeensi gurraachi irratti biqillaan hooqxoon sun fayyeera; namichis qulqulluu dha; lubnis akka inni qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu.
But if the priest sees that the scabby infection hasn't changed, and black hair has grown in it, then it has healed. The person is clean, and the priest must declare it.
38 “Yommuu dhiirri yookaan dubartiin gogaa dhagna isaa irraa baarolee qabaatanitti,
If someone, man or woman, has white spots on the skin,
39 lubni isaan haa qoru; kunoo yoo baaroleen sun adii daalacha taʼe kun cittoo gogaa irratti baʼe kan nama hin miinee dha; namichis qulqulluu dha.
the priest shall inspect them, and if the spots appear a dull white, it's just a rash that has developed on the skin; the person is clean.
40 “Namni yoo rifeensi mataa isaa dhumee molaaʼe inni qulqulluu dha.
If a man loses his hair and goes bald, he is still clean.
41 Yoo rifeensi mataa isaa fuula duraan irraa dhumee molaaʼes inni qulqulluu dha.
If he has a receding hairline and he goes bald on his forehead, he is still clean.
42 Garuu inni yoo moluu mataa isaa irraa yookaan moluu adda isaa irraa madaa adii diimatu qabaate wanni kun lamxii moluu mataa isaa yookaan moluu adda isaa keessaa baʼuu dha.
But if a reddish-white sore appears on his bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease developing.
43 Lubni isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo madaan iitaʼe kan mataa isaa irraa yookaan adda isaa irraa sun akkuma lamxii gogaa irratti baʼee adii diimatu taʼe,
The priest must inspect him, and if the swelling of the sore on his bald head or forehead looks reddish-white like a skin disease,
44 namichi dhukkubsataa fi xuraaʼaa dha. Sababii madaa mataa namichaa irra jiru sanaatiifis akka namichi xuraaʼaa taʼe lubni sun haa labsu.
then he is has an infectious disease; he is unclean. The priest must declare him unclean because of the infection on his head.
45 “Namni lamxii akkasii qabu uffata tatarsaʼaa haa uffatu; rifeensa mataa isaatti waa hin maratin; afaan isaas haguuggatee, ‘Ani xuraaʼaa dha! Ani xuraaʼaa dha!’ jedhee haa iyyu.
Anyone who has such diseases must wear clothes that are torn and let their hair remain uncombed. They must cover their faces and shout out, ‘Unclean, unclean!’
46 Inni hamma dhukkubni sun irra jirutti xuraaʼaa dha; kophaa isaa haa jiraatu; qubata keessaas baʼee ala haa jiraatu.
They remain unclean as long as the infection lasts. They have to live alone somewhere outside the camp.
47 “Yoo uffanni suufii irraa yookaan quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame kam iyyuu,
The following regulations relate to any material that becomes affected by mold, such as wool or linen clothing,
48 uffanni quncee talbaa irraa yookaan suufii irraa dhaʼame yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame kam iyyuu, gogaan yookaan wanni gogaa irraa hojjetame kam iyyuu lamxii qabaate,
anything woven or knitted made from linen or wool, or anything made of leather:
49 yoo dhukkubni uffata irra yookaan gogaa irra yookaan uffata dhaʼame irra yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame irra yookaan miʼa gogaa irra jiru sun magariisa taʼe yookaan diimate wanni kun waan lamxii taʼeef lubatti haa argisiifamu.
If the spot is green or red on the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted or some other leather item, then it is infected with mold and must be shown to the priest.
50 Lubnis lamxii sana qoree miʼa dhukkubaan faalame sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.
The priest must inspect the mold and place the item in isolation for seven days.
51 Guyyaa torbaffaatti lubichi lamxii sana haa qoru; yoo lamxiin sun uffata irra yookaan wayyaa dhaʼame irra yookaan uffata wal keessa loofamee hojjetame irra yookaan gogaa waan kamiif iyyuu fayyadu irra faffacaʼe wanni kun lamxii hamaa dha; miʼi sunis xuraaʼaa dha.
On the seventh day the priest shall inspect it again, and if the patch of mold has spread in the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted or some other leather item, then it is a harmful mold; the article is unclean, whatever it is being used for.
52 Sababii lamxiin sun hamaa taʼeef lubichi uffata yookaan wayyaa suufii irraa yookaan quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame yookaan miʼa gogaa irraa hojjetame kan dhukkuba sanaan faalame kam iyyuu haa gubu; miʼi sunis gubamuu qaba.
The priest is to burn it, whether the affected item is wool or linen or leather. Because the mold is harmful, the article must be burned.
53 “Garuu yeroo lubni lamxii sana qorutti kunoo yoo lamxiin sun uffata irra yookaan wayyaa dhaʼame irra yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame irra yookaan miʼa gogaa irraa hojjetame irra faffacaʼuu baate,
However, if when the priest inspects it again it, the patch mold has not spread,
54 lubichi akka miʼi lamxiidhaan faalame sun miiccamu haa ajaju. Ergasii immoo miʼa sana kophaatti baasee ammas bultii torba haa tursu.
the priest shall order that the affected item is washed and placed in isolation for another seven days.
55 Erga miʼi lamxiidhaan faalame sun miiccamee booddee lubichi miʼa sana haa qoru; lamxiin sun yoo faffacaʼu baate illee bifti isaa geeddaramuu baannaan uffanni sun xuraaʼaa dha. Yoo lamxiin sun gama tokkoon yookaan gama kaaniin miʼa sana faalee jiraate, miʼi sun ibiddaan haa gubamu.
Once it has been washed, the priest is to inspect again it, and if the item with the mold hasn't changed how it looks, it is unclean. Though the mold hasn't spread, you must burn the item, whether the mold damage is on the inside or the outside.
56 Erga miʼi sun miiccamee booddee yeroo lubni qorutti yoo lamxiin sun badee jiraate lubichi iddoo lamxiidhaan faalame sana uffata yookaan gogaa yookaan wayyaa dhaʼame yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame irraa haa tarsaasu.
If the priest inspects it and the patch of mold has faded after it has been washed, he is to cut out the affected part the material, whether it's leather, woven, or knitted.
57 Garuu yoo lamxiin sun deebiʼee uffata irratti yookaan wayyaa dhaʼame irratti yookaan wal keessa loofame hojjetame irratti yookaan miʼa gogaa irraa hojjetame kam iyyuu irratti argame, lamxiin sun faffacaʼaa jira; wanni lamxii qabu ibiddaan haa gubamu.
However, if the mold comes back then it is spreading. In that case you must burn the affected item.
58 Uffanni yookaan wayyaan dhaʼame yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame yookaan miʼi gogaa irraa hojjetame kan miiccamee lamxiin irraa bade kam iyyuu ammas haa miiccamu; innis ni qulqullaaʼa.”
If the mold disappears after washing, then have it washed again, and it will be clean.
59 Wanni kun seera akka uffanni suufii irraa yookaan quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame, wayyaan dhaʼame yookaan wal keessa loofamee hojjetame yookaan miʼi gogaa irraa hojjetamee lamxiidhaan faalame kam iyyuu xuraaʼaa taʼee fi akka hin taʼin labsuuf kennamee dha.
These are the regulations regarding what needs to be done when mold contaminates wool or linen material, whether woven or knitted, or any leather item, as to declaring it clean or unclean.”
