Levítico 13

1 Yahvé habló a Moisés y a Aarón, diciendo:

The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

2 “Cuando un hombre tenga una hinchazón en la piel de su cuerpo, o una costra, o una mancha brillante, y se convierta en la piel de su cuerpo en la plaga de la lepra, entonces será llevado al sacerdote Aarón o a uno de sus hijos, los sacerdotes.

"When a man shall have a rising in his body's skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons, the priests:

3 El sacerdote examinará la plaga en la piel del cuerpo. Si el pelo de la plaga se ha vuelto blanco, y el aspecto de la plaga es más profundo que la piel del cuerpo, se trata de una plaga de lepra; entonces el sacerdote lo examinará y lo declarará impuro.

and the priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body's skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean.

4 Si la mancha es blanca en la piel de su cuerpo, y su apariencia no es más profunda que la piel, y su pelo no se ha vuelto blanco, entonces el sacerdote aislará a la persona infectada durante siete días.

If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and its hair hasn't turned white, then the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.

5 El sacerdote lo examinará al séptimo día. Si en sus ojos la plaga está detenida y la plaga no se ha extendido en la piel, entonces el sacerdote lo aislará por siete días más.

The priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and, look, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall isolate him for seven more days.

6 El sacerdote lo examinará de nuevo al séptimo día. Si la peste ha desaparecido y no se ha extendido por la piel, el sacerdote lo declarará limpio. Se trata de una costra. Se lavará la ropa y quedará limpio.

The priest shall examine him again on the seventh day; and look, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.

7 Pero si la costra se extiende en la piel después de haberse presentado al sacerdote para su purificación, se presentará de nuevo al sacerdote.

But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again.

8 El sacerdote lo examinará, y si la costra se ha extendido por la piel, el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Es lepra.

The priest shall examine him; and look, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.

9 “Cuando la plaga de la lepra esté en un hombre, será llevado al sacerdote;

"When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;

10 y el sacerdote lo examinará. Si hay una hinchazón blanca en la piel, que ha vuelto blanco el cabello, y hay carne viva en la hinchazón,

and the priest shall examine him. Look, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising,

11 se trata de una lepra crónica en la piel de su cuerpo, y el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. No lo aislará, porque ya está impuro.

it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.

12 “Si la lepra brota por toda la piel, y la lepra cubre toda la piel del infectado, desde la cabeza hasta los pies, según lo que le parezca al sacerdote,

"If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest;

13 entonces el sacerdote lo examinará. Si la lepra ha cubierto toda su carne, lo declarará limpio de la plaga. Todo se ha vuelto blanco: está limpio.

then the priest shall examine him; and, look, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean.

14 Pero cuando la carne viva aparezca en él, será impuro.

But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.

15 El sacerdote examinará la carne viva y lo declarará impuro: la carne viva es impura. Es lepra.

The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.

16 O si la carne viva se vuelve y se convierte en blanca, entonces vendrá al sacerdote.

Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest;

17 El sacerdote lo examinará. Si la llaga se ha vuelto blanca, el sacerdote lo declarará limpio de la llaga. Está limpio.

and the priest shall examine him; and, look, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.

18 “Cuando el cuerpo tenga un forúnculo en la piel, y se haya curado,

"When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,

19 y en el lugar del forúnculo haya una hinchazón blanca, o una mancha brillante, de color blanco rojizo, entonces se mostrará al sacerdote.

and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest;

20 El sacerdote lo examinará. Si su aspecto es más profundo que la piel, y su pelo se ha vuelto blanco, el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Es la plaga de la lepra. Ha brotado en el forúnculo.

and the priest shall examine it; and look, if its appearance is lower than the skin, and its hair has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil.

21 Pero si el sacerdote lo examina, y he aquí que no hay pelos blancos en él, y no está más profundo que la piel, sino que es tenue, entonces el sacerdote lo aislará siete días.

But if the priest examines it, and look, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.

22 Si se extiende en la piel, el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Es una plaga.

If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.

23 Pero si la mancha brillante permanece en su lugar y no se ha extendido, es la cicatriz del forúnculo; y el sacerdote lo declarará limpio.

But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.

24 “O cuando el cuerpo tenga una quemadura de fuego en su piel, y la carne viva de la quemadura se convierta en una mancha brillante, de color blanco rojizo o blanco,

"Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white,

25 entonces el sacerdote lo examinará; y he aquí que si el pelo de la mancha brillante se ha vuelto blanco, y su aspecto es más profundo que la piel, es lepra. Ha brotado en el quemado, y el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Es la plaga de la lepra.

then the priest shall examine it; and look, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and its appearance is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.

26 Pero si el sacerdote lo examina y ve que no hay pelo blanco en la mancha, y que no es más profunda que la piel, sino que se ha desvanecido, entonces el sacerdote lo aislará siete días.

But if the priest examines it, and look, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't lower than the skin, but is faded; then the priest shall isolate him seven days.

The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.

If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn.

29 “Cuando un hombre o una mujer tenga una plaga en la cabeza o en la barba,

"When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,

30 entonces el sacerdote examinará la plaga; y si su aspecto es más profundo que la piel, y el pelo en ella es amarillo y fino, entonces el sacerdote lo declarará impuro. Se trata de una picazón. Es lepra de la cabeza o de la barba.

then the priest shall examine the plague; and look, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard.

31 Si el sacerdote examina la plaga de prurito, y he aquí que su aspecto no es más profundo que la piel, y no hay pelo negro en ella, entonces el sacerdote aislará a la persona infectada de prurito durante siete días.

On the seventh day the priest shall examine the plague; and look, if the itch hasn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn't deeper than the skin,

then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the priest shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days.

But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,

36 entonces el sacerdote lo examinará; y si la picazón se ha extendido en la piel, el sacerdote no buscará el pelo amarillo; es impuro.

But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean.

38 “Cuando un hombre o una mujer tenga manchas brillantes en la piel del cuerpo, incluso manchas blancas brillantes,

"When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots;

"The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, 'Unclean. Unclean.'

47 “También el vestido en el que esté la plaga de la lepra, sea de lana o de lino;

"The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;

48 sea de urdimbre o de trama; de lino o de lana; sea de cuero o de cualquier cosa de cuero;

whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin;

if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest.

The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.

51 Al séptimo día examinará la plaga. Si la plaga se ha extendido en el vestido, ya sea en la urdimbre o en la trama, o en la piel, cualquiera que sea el uso que se le dé a la piel, la plaga es un moho destructor. Es impuro.

He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean.

"If the priest examines it, and look, the plague hasn't spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin;

54 entonces el sacerdote ordenará que laven el objeto en que está la peste, y lo aislará siete días más.

then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days.

55 Entonces el sacerdote lo examinará, después de lavar la plaga; y he aquí que si la plaga no ha cambiado de color, y la plaga no se ha propagado, es impuro; lo quemarás en el fuego. Es una mancha enmohecida, ya sea que la desnudez esté por dentro o por fuera.

Then the priest shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and look, if the plague hasn't changed its color, and the plague hasn't spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside.

56 Si el sacerdote mira, y he aquí que la plaga se ha desvanecido después de haberla lavado, entonces la arrancará del vestido, o de la piel, o de la urdimbre, o de la trama;

If the priest looks, and look, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:

57 y si aparece de nuevo en el vestido, ya sea en la urdimbre, en la trama o en cualquier cosa de la piel, se está extendiendo. Quemarás con fuego lo que contenga la plaga.

and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is.

58 El vestido, ya sea en la urdimbre o en la trama, o en cualquier cosa de piel que sea, que lavarás, si la peste se ha ido de ellos, se lavará por segunda vez, y quedará limpio.”

The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean."

This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
