Lewwota 13

1 Waaqayyos Musee fi Arooniin akkana jedhe;

And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

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.

“When a man has a rising, or scab, or bright spot in the skin of his flesh, and it has become a leprous plague in the skin of his flesh, then he has been brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests;

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.

and the priest has seen the plague in the skin of the flesh, and the hair in the plague has 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 has seen him, and has pronounced him 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.

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 has not turned white, then the priest has shut up [him who has] the plague [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.

And the priest has seen him on the seventh day, and behold, the plague has stood in his eyes, the plague has not spread in the skin, and the priest has shut him up [for] a second 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.

And the priest has seen him on the second seventh day, and behold, the plague has faded, and the plague has not spread in the skin, and the priest has pronounced him clean; it [is] a scab, and he has washed his garments, and has been 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.

And if the scab spreads greatly in the skin, after his being seen by the priest for his cleansing, then he has been seen a second time by the priest;

8 Lubichis isa haa qoru; yoo cittoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼee jiraate lubichi akka inni xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; wanni kun lamxii dha.

and the priest has seen, and behold, the scab has spread in the skin, and the priest has pronounced him unclean; it [is] leprosy.

9 “Namni yoo lamxii qabaate inni lubatti fidamuu qaba.

When a plague of leprosy is in a man, then he has been brought to the priest,

10 Lubichi isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo iiti adiin kan rifeensa addeesse gogaa irra jiraatee fi foon iita sanaa diimatee mulʼate,

and the priest has seen, and behold, a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and a quickening of raw flesh [is] in the rising—

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] an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest has pronounced him unclean; he does not shut him up, for he [is] unclean.

12 “Dhukkubni sun hamma lubni arguu dandaʼutti gogaa isaa irra yoo faffacaʼee gogaa namicha madaaʼe sanaa mataadhaa hamma miillaatti haguuge,

And if the leprosy breaks out greatly in the skin, and the leprosy has covered all the skin of [him who has] the plague, from his head even to his feet, to all that appears to the eyes of the priest,

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.

then the priest has seen, and behold, the leprosy has covered all his flesh, and he has pronounced [him who has] the plague clean; it has all turned white; he [is] clean.

14 Inni garuu yeroo iita foon isaa keessaan diimatee mulʼatu qabaatu xuraaʼaa dha.

And in the day of raw flesh being seen in him, he is unclean;

15 Lubichi yeroo foon diimatee mulʼatu argutti akka namichi sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; foon diimate xuraaʼaa dha; namichis lamxii qaba.

and the priest has seen the raw flesh, and has pronounced him unclean; the raw flesh is unclean—it [is] leprosy.

16 Yookaan yoo foon diimaan geeddaramee addaate namichi lubatti of argisiisuu haa dhaqu.

Or when the raw flesh turns back, and has been turned to white, then he has come to the priest,

17 Lubnis isa haa qoru; yoo madaan sun addaate lubichi akka namichi madaaʼe sun qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu; namichis ni qulqullaaʼa.

and the priest has seen him, and behold, the plague has been turned to white, and the priest has pronounced clean [him who has] the plague; he [is] clean.

18 “Namni gogaa isaa irraa dhullaa yoo qabaatee dhullaan sun fayyee jiraate,

And when flesh has in it, in its skin, an ulcer, and it has been healed,

19 yoo iddoo dhullaan ture sanatti iiti adiin yookaan baaroleen diimaan adiin mulʼate inni lubatti of haa argisiisu.

and there has been in the place of the ulcer a white rising, or a bright white spot, reddish, then it has been seen by 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.

and the priest has seen, and behold, its appearance [is] lower than the skin, and its hair has turned white, and the priest has pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy—it has broken out in an ulcer.

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.

And if the priest sees it, and behold, there is no white hair in it, and it is not lower than the skin, and has faded, then the priest has shut him up [for] seven days;

22 Yoo baaroleen sun gogaa irra faffacaʼe, lubichi akka namni sun xuraaʼaa taʼe haa labsu; kun dhukkuba namatti darbuu dha.

and if it spreads greatly in the skin, then the priest has pronounced him unclean—it [is] a plague;

23 Garuu baaroleen sun yoo hin geeddaraminii fi yoo hin faffacaʼin, inni godaannisa dhullaa sanaa ti; lubnis akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe haa labsu.

and if the bright spot stays in its place—it has not spread—it [is] an inflammation of the ulcer; and the priest has pronounced him clean.

24 “Yoo namni gogaa isaa irraa gubaa qabaatee foon diimaa iddoo gubamaa sanaa irratti baaroleen diimaan adiin yookaan adiin mulʼate,

Or when flesh has a fiery burning in its skin, and the quickening of the burning, the bright white spot, has been reddish or white,

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.

and the priest has seen it, and behold, the hair has turned white in the bright spot, and its appearance [is] deeper than the skin, it [is] leprosy; it has broken out in the burning, and the priest has pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy.

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.

And if the priest sees it, and behold, there is no white hair on the bright spot, and it is not lower than the skin, and it has faded, then the priest has shut him up [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.

and the priest has seen him on the seventh day, [and] if it spreads greatly in the skin, then the priest has pronounced him unclean; it [is] a plague of leprosy.

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.

And if the bright spot stays in its place, it has not spread in the skin, and has faded; it [is] a rising of the burning, and the priest has pronounced him clean; for it [is] inflammation of the burning.

29 “Yoo dhiirri yookaan dubartiin mataa irraa yookaan areeda irraa madaa qabaatan,

And when a man (or a woman) has a plague in him, in the head or in the beard,

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.

then the priest has seen the plague, and behold, its appearance is deeper than the skin, and a thin, shining hair [is] in it, and the priest has pronounced him unclean; it [is] a scale—it [is] a leprosy of the head or of the beard.

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.

And when the priest sees the scaly plague, and behold, its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest has shut up [him who has] the scaly plague [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,

And the priest has seen the plague on the seventh day, and behold, the scale has not spread, and a shining hair has not been in it, and the appearance of the scale is not deeper than the skin,

33 namichi sun iddoo madaaʼe sana qofa dhiisee mataa isaa haa haadatu; lubni sunis ammas namicha sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.

then he has shaved himself, but he does not shave the scale; and the priest has shut up [him who has] the scale [for] a second 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.

And the priest has seen the scale on the seventh day, and behold, the scale has not spread in the skin, and its appearance is not deeper than the skin, and the priest has pronounced him clean, and he has washed his garments, and has been clean.

35 Garuu erga akka namichi qulqulluu taʼe labsamee booddee yoo hooqxoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼe,

And if the scale spreads greatly in the skin after his cleansing,

36 lubni isa haa qoru; kunoo yoo hooqxoon sun gogaa irra faffacaʼee jiraate lubichi rifeensa keelloo sakattaʼuu hin qabu; namichi sun xuraaʼaa dha.

and the priest has seen him, and behold, the scale has spread in the skin, the priest does not seek for the shining hair—he 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.

and if in his eyes the scale has stayed, and black hair has sprung up in it, the scale has been healed—he [is] clean—and the priest has pronounced him clean.

38 “Yommuu dhiirri yookaan dubartiin gogaa dhagna isaa irraa baarolee qabaatanitti,

And when a man or woman has bright spots in the skin of their flesh, white bright spots,

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.

and the priest has seen, and behold, white [and] faded bright spots [are] in the skin of their flesh—it [is] a freckled spot broken out in the skin; he [is] clean.

40 “Namni yoo rifeensi mataa isaa dhumee molaaʼe inni qulqulluu dha.

And when a man’s head [is] polished, he [is] bald; he [is] clean;

41 Yoo rifeensi mataa isaa fuula duraan irraa dhumee molaaʼes inni qulqulluu dha.

and if his head is polished from the corner of his face, he [is] bald of the forehead; he [is] 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.

And when there is in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague, it [is] a leprosy breaking out in the bald back of the head, or in the bald forehead;

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,

and the priest has seen him, and behold, the rising of the reddish-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 namichi dhukkubsataa fi xuraaʼaa dha. Sababii madaa mataa namichaa irra jiru sanaatiifis akka namichi xuraaʼaa taʼe lubni sun haa labsu.

he [is] a leprous man—he [is] unclean; the priest pronounces him utterly unclean; his plague [is] in 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.

As for the leper in whom [is] the plague, his garments are torn, and his head is uncovered, and he covers over the upper lip, and he calls, Unclean! Unclean!

46 Inni hamma dhukkubni sun irra jirutti xuraaʼaa dha; kophaa isaa haa jiraatu; qubata keessaas baʼee ala haa jiraatu.

He is unclean all the days that the plague [is] in him; he [is] unclean. He dwells alone; his dwelling [is] at the outside of the camp.

47 “Yoo uffanni suufii irraa yookaan quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame kam iyyuu,

And when there is a plague of leprosy in any garment—in a garment of wool, or in a garment of linen,

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,

or in the warp, or in the woof, of linen or of wool, or in a skin, or in any work of skin—

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.

and the plague has been greenish or reddish 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 has been shown [to] the priest.

50 Lubnis lamxii sana qoree miʼa dhukkubaan faalame sana kophaatti baasee bultii torba haa tursu.

And the priest has seen the plague, and has shut up [that which has] the plague [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.

and he has seen the plague on the seventh day, and the plague has 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 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.

And he has burned 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; it is burned with fire.

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,

And if the priest sees, and behold, the plague has not spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin,

54 lubichi akka miʼi lamxiidhaan faalame sun miiccamu haa ajaju. Ergasii immoo miʼa sana kophaatti baasee ammas bultii torba haa tursu.

then the priest has commanded, and they have washed that in which the plague [is], and he has shut it up [for] a second 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.

And the priest has seen [that which has] the plague after it has been washed, and behold, the plague has not changed its aspect, and the plague has not spread—it [is] unclean; you burn it with fire; it [is] a fretting in its back-part or in its front-part.

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.

And if the priest has seen, and behold, the plague has faded after it has been washed, then he has torn it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof;

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.

and if it is still seen in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in any vessel of skin, it [is] a fretting; you burn it with fire—that in which the plague [is].

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.”

And the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or any vessel of skin which you wash when the plague has turned aside from them, then it has been washed a second time, and has been 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.

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.”
