Levitiko 13

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,

Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me:

2 ‌ʻOka tupu ʻi ha tangata ʻi he kili ʻo hono sino ha meʻa pupula, ha mongumangu, pe ha ʻila ngingila, pea ʻoku ʻi he kili ʻo hono sino ia ʻo hangē ko e mahaki ko e kilia; ʻe ʻomi ai ia ki he taulaʻeiki ko ʻElone, pe ki ha tokotaha ʻo hono ngaahi foha ʻoku taulaʻeiki.

“When someone has on his skin a swelling or a rash or a shiny/bright spot that may become (contagious/a dreaded skin disease), he must be brought to Aaron or to one of his sons who are also priests.

3 Pea ʻe sio ʻae taulaʻeiki ki he mahaki ʻi he kili ʻoe sino: pea kapau kuo liliu ʻo hinehina ʻae fulufulu ʻi he hangatāmaki, pea ʻoku aʻu hifo ki lalo ʻi he kili ʻo hono sino ʻae mahaki, ko e mahaki ia ko e kilia: pea ʻe vakai kiate ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne fakahā ko e taʻemaʻa ia.

The priest must examine that part of the person’s skin. If the hair in that area has become white and it appears that the sore is deeper than just on the skin, it is a contagious skin disease. When the priest sees that, he must declare that the person must stay away from other people [MTY].

4 Kapau ʻoku hinehina ʻae ʻila ngingila ʻi he kili ʻoe sino, pea hā ia ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi lalo ʻi he kili, pea ʻoku teʻeki liliu ʻo hinehina ʻae fulufulu ʻi ai; ʻe toki tuku ia ʻoku mahaki ʻe he taulaʻeiki ke nofomaʻu ki fale ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu:

If the spot on the person’s skin is white but it does not appear that the sore is deeper than just on the skin, the priest must tell him to stay away from other people for seven days.

5 Pea ʻe mamata kiate ia ʻae taulaʻeiki ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: pea vakai, kapau ʻoku ne sio ʻoku pehē pe ʻae mahaki, ka ʻoku teʻeki tupu ʻo mafola ʻi he kili: ʻe toe tuku ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki ha fale tāpuni ke ʻaho fitu:

Then the priest must examine the person again. If the priest sees that the sore has not changed and has not spread, he must tell the person to stay away from people for seven more days.

6 Pea ʻe toe mamata kiate ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: pea vakai kapau ʻoku mata ʻuliʻuli ʻae hangatāmaki, pea ʻoku ʻikai tupu ke mafola atu ʻi he kili, ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku maʻa: ko e mongumangu pe ia: pea ʻe fō ʻe ia ʻa hono ngaahi kofu ʻo maʻa ai.

Then the priest must examine him again. If the sore has faded and has not spread, the priest will allow him to be with other people again; it is only a rash. After the person washes his clothes, he will be allowed to be with other people again.

7 Pea kapau ʻe totolo atu ʻo lahi ʻae mongumangu ʻi he kili, hili hono mamata kiate ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻi hono fakamaʻa, ʻe toe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki kiate ia:

But if the sore spreads after the priest has examined him, he must go to the priest again.

8 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, ʻoku tupu ʻo totolo atu pe ʻae mongumangu ʻi he kili, ʻe toki fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e taʻemaʻa: ko e kilia ia.

The priest will examine him; and if the sore has spread to more of the skin, it is a contagious skin disease, and the priest will declare that he must stay away from other people.

9 ʻOka hoko ki he tangata ʻae mahaki ko e kilia, ʻe ʻomi ai ia ki he taulaʻeiki;

When anyone has a contagious skin disease, he must be brought to the priest.

10 Pea ʻe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki kiate ia: pea vakai, kapau ʻoku hinehina ʻae meʻa kuo tupu hake ʻi he kili, pea kuo ne liliu ʻae fulufulu ke hinehina, pea ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he hangatāmaki ʻae mataʻi kakano ʻoku kalakalaʻia,

The priest must examine him. And if there is a white swelling in the skin that has caused the hair in that swelling to become white, and if the flesh in that area is painful/sensitive,

11 Ko e kilia fuoloa ia ʻi he kili ʻoe kakano, pea ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e taʻemaʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai tāpuni ia ki fale: he ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia.

it is a permanent skin disease, and the priest will declare that he must stay away from other people. The priest does not need to tell that person that he must avoid other people, because other people already are wanting to stay away from him.

12 Pea kapau ʻe tupu ʻo lahi ha kilia ʻituʻa ʻi he kili, pea tupu ʻae kilia ʻo ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae kili kotoa pē ʻo ia ʻoku mahaki, mei hono ʻulu ʻo aʻu ki he vaʻe, ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku sio ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki;

‘If the disease spreads all over someone’s body, and the priest examines that person and sees that it is covering his skin from his head to his feet,

13 Pehē ʻe fifili ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki: pea vakai, kapau kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻe he kilia ʻae sino kotoa, te ne fakahā ʻoku maʻa ia ʻaia ʻoku mahaki: kuo liliu ia ʻo hinehina kotoa pē: ʻoku maʻa ia.

and it has caused all his skin to become white [which will indicate that the disease has ended], the priest will declare that the person does not have to stay away from other people.

14 Ka ʻoka hā ʻae kanomate kalakalaʻia ʻiate ia ʻe taʻemaʻa ia.

But if the person has open sores and they are very painful/sensitive, he has a contagious skin disease,

15 Pea ʻe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki ki he kanomate kalakalaʻia, ʻo ne fakahā ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia: he ko e kanomate kalakalaʻia ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia: ko e kilia ia.

and when the priest sees that, he will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

16 Pea kapau ʻe toe liliu ʻae kanomate kalakalaʻia pea toe liliu ia ʻo hinehina, ʻe toe haʻu ia ki he taulaʻeiki;

But if the person’s flesh changes and becomes white, he must go to the priest again.

17 Pea ʻe mamata kiate ia ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, kapau kuo liliu ʻae mahaki ʻo hinehina; pea ʻe toki fakahā ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku maʻa ia ʻaia ʻoku mahaki: ʻoku maʻa ia.

The priest must examine him again; and if the sores have become white, the priest will declare that the person who had been infected is now permitted to be with other people again.

18 Pea ko e sino foki ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ʻi hono kili ʻae vakafoha, pea kuo moʻui,

‘Then someone has a boil on his skin and it has healed,

19 Pea ʻi he potu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae vakafoha ʻoku tupu ai ʻae meʻa hinehina, pe ko e ʻila ngingila, ʻoku hinehina, pea mata fakakulokula, pea ʻoku fakahā ia ki he taulaʻeiki:

but in the place where the boil was a white swelling or a bright/shiny spot appears, he must go to the priest.

20 Pea ʻoka mamata ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea kapau ʻoku hā ia ʻo māʻulalo ʻi he kili, pea liliu ʻo hinehina ʻae ngaahi fulufulu ʻi ai ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e taʻemaʻa ko e mahaki ia ko e kilia, kuo tupu mei he vakafoha.

The priest must examine it. And if it seems to be deeper than just on the skin, and if the hair in that spot has become white, it is a contagious skin disease that has appeared where the boil had been. And the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

21 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, ʻoku ʻikai ha fulufulu hinehina ʻi ai, pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻi lalo ia ʻi he kili, ka ʻoku mata ʻuliʻuli: pea ʻe toki tuku ia ki ha fale tāpuni ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho fitu:

But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in that spot and it is only on the surface of the skin and has become less bright/shiny, then the priest will order him to stay away from other people for seven days.

22 Pea kapau ʻe totolo lahi ʻi he kili, ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e taʻemaʻa ko e mahaki ia.

But if it is spreading, it is contagious and the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

23 Pea kapau ʻoku tuʻu pehē ai pe ʻae ʻila ngingila, pea ʻikai totolo atu, ko e vakafoha kalakalaʻia ia; pea ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e maʻa.

But if that spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

24 Pea kapau ʻe ai ha kakano ʻi he kili ʻoku vela lahi, pea tuʻu ʻi he kanomate ʻoku vela ʻae ʻila hinehina ngingila, ʻoku mata fakakulokula, pe hinehina;

‘Then someone has a burn on his skin and a bright/shiny or white spot appears, and the flesh in that area is sensitive/painful,

25 ‌ʻE toki sio ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki: pea vakai, kapau kuo liliu ʻo hinehina ʻae fulufulu ʻi he ʻila ngingila, pea hā ʻi lalo ʻi he kili; ko e kilia ia kuo tupu mei he meʻa kalakala: ko ia, ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ko e taʻemaʻa: ko e mahaki ia ko e kilia.

the priest must examine the spot. If the hair in that spot has turned white and it seems to be deeper than just on the surface of the skin, it is a contagious skin disease that has appeared where the burn was, and that person must stay away from other people.

26 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ki ai ʻe he taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, ʻoku ʻikai ha fulufulu hinehina ʻi he ʻila ngingila, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻi lalo ʻi he kili, ka ʻoku matamata ʻuliʻuli siʻi ia; ʻe toki tāpuni ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki [ki fale ]ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu:

But when the priest examines it and sees that there is no white hair in that spot and it is only on the surface of the skin, and has faded, the priest will declare that the person must stay away from people for seven days.

27 Pea ʻe mamata kiate ia ʻae taulaʻeiki ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: pea kapau kuo totolo lahi atu ia ʻi he kili, ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku taʻemaʻa: ko e mahaki ko e kilia.

On the seventh day, the priest will examine him again. If the sore is spreading, it is a contagious skin disease, and the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

28 Pea kapau ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he potu pe taha ʻae ʻila ngingila ka ʻoku ʻikai totolo atu ʻi he kili, ka ʻoku matamata ʻuliʻuli ia: ko e meʻa tupu pe ia ʻi heʻene kalakala, pea ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku maʻa: he ko e hangatāmaki ia ʻi heʻene kalakalaʻia.

However, if the spot is not changed and has not spread but has faded, it is only a scar from the burn, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

29 Kapau ʻoku tupu ʻi ha tangata pe ʻi ha fefine ʻae mahaki ʻi he ʻulu pe ʻi he kava;

‘If a man or a woman has a sore on his head or on his chin,

30 ‌ʻE mamata ai ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he mahaki: pea vakai, kapau ʻoku hā mai ia ki lalo ʻi he kili; pea ʻoku ʻi ai ha tuʻoni fulufulu melomelo fuoiiki; ʻe toki fakahā ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia: ko e kamaa mōmoa ia, ʻio, ko e kilia ʻoe ʻulu pe ʻoe kava.

the priest must examine it. If it appears to be deeper than [just on the surface of] the skin, and the hair in that spot has thinned out and has become yellowish, it is a contagious skin disease that causes itching. And the priest will declare that the person must stay away from other people.

31 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he mahaki ko e kamaa, pea vakai, ʻoku ʻikai hā mai ia ʻi lalo ʻi he kili, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ha fulufulu ʻuliʻuli; ʻe toki tāpuni[ki fale ]ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻaia ʻoku mahaki ʻi he kamaa ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu:

But when the priest examines that kind of sore, if it seems to be only on the surface of the skin and there is no healthy hair in it, the priest will tell the person to stay away from other people for seven days.

32 Pea ʻe mamata ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ki he mahaki: pea vakai, kapau ʻoku ʻikai totolo atu ʻae kama, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ha fulufulu melomelo, pea ʻoku ʻikai matamata ʻi lalo ʻi he kili ʻae kama.

On the seventh day, the priest will examine the sore again. If it has not spread and if there is no yellow hair in that spot and if it appears to be only on the surface of the skin,

33 ‌ʻE fafai ia ka ʻe ʻikai fafai ʻae kamaa pea ʻe toe tāpuni[ki fale ]ʻa ia ʻoku kamaa ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu:

the person must shave the hair near the sore but not the hair on the sore. And the priest will tell him to stay away from other people for seven more days.

34 Pea ʻe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki ki he kamaa ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: pea vakai, kapau ʻoku ʻikai totolo ʻae kamaa ʻi he kili, pea ʻikai hā ʻi lalo ʻi he kili; ʻe toki fakahā ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku maʻa ia: pea ke fō ʻe ia hono ngaahi kofu, pea ʻe maʻa ai ia.

On the seventh day, the priest will examine that spot again. If it has not spread and it appears to be only on the surface of the skin, the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with people again. The person must wash his clothes, and then he can be with other people.

35 Pea kapau ʻoku totolo lahi ʻae kamaa ʻi he kili ʻoka hili hono fakamaʻa:

But if the sore later spreads,

36 Pea ʻe mamata kiate ia ʻae taulaʻeiki pea vakai, kapau kuo totolo ʻae kamaa, ʻi he kili, ʻoua naʻa kumi ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he fulufulu melomelo; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia.

the priest must examine him again. If the itch/sore has spread, the priest does not need to look for yellow hair, because it is clear that the person has a contagious skin disease.

37 Pea kapau ʻoku hā mai ʻae kamaa ʻoku pehē ai pe, pea kuo tupu ʻi ai ʻae fulufulu ʻuliʻuli; kuo moʻui ʻae kamaa, ʻoku maʻa ia: pea ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku maʻa ia.

However, if the priest thinks that the spot has not changed, and healthy hair is growing in that area, it is clear that the itch has healed, and the priest will declare that the person is permitted to be with other people again.

38 Kapau ʻoku ʻi ha tangata pe ko e fefine ʻae ngaahi ʻila ngingila ʻi he kili ʻo honau sino, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi ʻila hinehina ʻoku ngingila;

‘Then a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,

39 Pea ʻe mamata ai ʻae taulaʻeiki pea vakai, kapau ʻoku hinehina ʻuliʻuli ʻae ngaahi ʻila ʻi hona sino; ko e ʻila ia ʻoku tupu ʻi hona sino; ʻoku maʻa ia.

the priest should examine them. But if the spots are dull white, it is only a rash, and [the priest will declare that] the person is permitted to be with other people.

40 Pea ko e tangata kuo mokulu hono louʻulu, kuo tula ia; ka ʻoku ne maʻa pe:

‘If a man loses the hair on any part of his head, he does not need to stay away from other people.

41 Pea ko ia kuo mokulu hono louʻulu mei hono muʻa laʻē ki ʻao, ko e tula muʻa laʻē ia; ka ʻoku ne maʻa.

42 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻi he ʻulu tula pe ʻi he muʻa laʻē tula ha meʻa pupula ʻoku hinehina kulokula; ko e kilia ia kuo tupu ʻi hono ʻulu tula pe ʻi hono muʻa laʻē tula.

But if he gets a bright/shiny sore on his bald head or on his forehead, he has a contagious skin disease.

43 Pea ʻe mamata ki ai ʻae taulaʻeiki pea vakai, kapau ʻoku hinehina kulokula ʻae meʻa kuo tupu ʻi hono ʻulu tula, pe ki hono muʻa laʻē tula, pea hā ia ʻo hangē ko e kilia ʻi he kili ʻoe sino:

The priest must examine him. If the swollen sore is a bright spot like [the spot on someone who has] a contagious skin disease,

44 Ko e tangata kilia ia, ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia; ʻe fakahā ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻoku taʻemaʻa ʻaupito ia; ʻoku ʻi hono ʻulu ʻa hono mahaki.

the priest will declare that the man has a contagious skin disease and must not be with other people.

45 Pea ko e kilia ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae mahaki, ʻe haehae hono ngaahi kofu, pea ʻe tekefua hono ʻulu, pea ʻe ʻai ʻe ia ha meʻa ʻufiʻufi ki hono loungutu ʻi ʻolunga, pea ʻe kalanga ia, “Taʻemaʻa, taʻemaʻa.”

‘Anyone who has a contagious skin disease must wear torn clothes and not comb his hair. [When he is near other people], he must cover the lower part to his face and call out, “Do not come near me! I have a contagious skin disease!”

46 ‌ʻE taʻemaʻa ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hono mahaki; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia: ʻe nofo tokotaha ia; ʻe tuʻu ʻa hono nofoʻanga ʻi tuaʻā ʻi he ʻapitanga.

He is not allowed to be with other people as long as he has the disease. He must live alone, outside the camp.’”

47 Ko e kofu foki ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mahaki ko e kilia, pe ko ha kofu sipi ia, pe ko e kofu tupenu tuʻovalevale;

“Sometimes a person’s clothing gets mildew on it. It may be clothing that is woven from wool or made from linen or from leather.

48 ‌ʻI hono lalanga fakamāukupu pe ʻi he lōloa: ʻi he tupenu, pe ʻi he kofu fulufuluʻi sipi; ko e meʻa ʻi ha kiliʻi manu, pe ʻi ha meʻa kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae kiliʻi manu;

49 Pea kapau ʻoku hangē ko e lanu ʻakau mata ʻae mahaki, pe kulokula ʻi he kofu, pe ʻi he kiliʻi manu, ʻi hono lalanga fakamāukupu pe ʻi hono lōloa, pe ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha he kiliʻi manu; ko e mahaki ia ko e kilia, pea ʻe fakahā ia ki he taulaʻeiki.

If the contaminated/mildewed part is greenish or reddish, it is a spreading mildew, and it must be shown to the priest.

50 Pea ʻe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki ki he mahaki, pea ʻe tāpuni [ki fale ]ʻaia ʻoku mahaki ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu:

The priest will examine it, and then put it in a separate place by itself for seven days.

51 Pea ʻe mamata ʻe ia ki he mahaki ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho: pea kapau kuo totolo ʻae mahaki ʻi he kofu, ʻi hono lalanga fakamāukupu pe ʻi hono lōloa, pe ʻi ha kiliʻi manu, pe ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae kiliʻi manu; ko e kilia fakamamahi ia: ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia.

On the seventh day he must examine it again. If the mildew has spread, it is clear that it is a type of mildew that destroys clothing, and that clothing must not be worn again.

52 ‌ʻE tutu ʻe ia ʻae kofu ko ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae kilia, ʻi hono māukupu pe ʻi hono lōloa, ʻi he kofu sipi, pe ʻi he tupenu, pe ʻi ha kiliʻi manu, he ko e kilia fakamamahi ia; ʻe tutu ia ʻi he afi.

The owner must burn completely the item that has the mildew in it, whatever kind of item it is.

53 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, ʻoku ʻikai tupu ʻae mahaki ʻi he kofu, ʻi hono māukupu, pe ʻi hono lōloa, pe ʻi ha kiliʻi manu ʻe taha;

But when the priest examines it, if the mildew has not spread,

54 ‌ʻE toki fekau ʻe he taulaʻeiki kenau fō ʻae meʻa ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mahaki, pea ke tuku tāpuni ia ke toe ʻaho fitu:

he will tell the person [who owns it] to wash it. Then he must put it in a separate place for another seven days.

55 Pea ʻe mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki ki he mahaki, hili hono fō ia: pea vakai, kapau kuo ʻikai liliu ʻo mata kehe ʻae mahaki, pea ʻoku ʻikai totolo atu ʻae mahaki; ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia; ke ke tutu ia ʻi he afi; he kuo kai ia ʻi loto kuo molemole ia ʻi loto mo tuʻa.

Then the priest will examine it again. If the color of the mildew has not changed, even though it has not spread, that item must not be worn again. It does not matter if the mildew is on the inside of the clothing or on the outside; it must be burned.

56 Pea kapau ʻoku mamata ʻae taulaʻeiki, pea vakai, ʻoku mata ʻuliʻuli ʻae mahaki hili hono fō; pea ʻe hae ia mei he kofu, pe mei he kiliʻi manu, pe mei hono lōloa pe mei hono māukupu ʻoe kofu.

But when the priest examines it [after it has been washed], if the mildew has faded, he must tear out that part that had the mildew in it.

57 Pea kapau ʻoku kei hā ia ʻi he kofu, ʻi hono lōloa, pe ʻi he māukupu, pe ʻi ha kiliʻi manu ʻe taha: pehē ʻe toki tutu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mahaki.

But if the mildew reappears in that item, it is clear that it is spreading, and the whole item must be burned.

58 Pea ko e kofu, pe ko e lōloa pe māukupu, pe ko e kiliʻi manu ʻaia ʻoku ke fō, kapau ʻoku mahuʻi mei ai ʻae mahaki, pea ʻe toe fō ia ke liunga ua, pea ʻe maʻa ia.

But after the clothing is washed and the mildew disappears, it must be washed again, and then it can be worn again.

59 Ko eni ʻae fono ki he mahaki ko e kilia ʻi he kofu sipi pe ko e tupenu, ʻi hono lōloa pe ʻi hono māukupu, pe ha kiliʻi manu ʻe taha, ke fakahā ai hono maʻa, pe fakahā ʻa hono taʻemaʻa.

Those are the regulations concerning mildew on things made of wool or linen or leather, for deciding whether those things can continue to be worn or not.”
