3 Mose 13

1 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ,

Moreouer the Lord spake vnto Moses, and to Aaron, saying,

2 “Sɛ obi hunu sɛ biribi ahono ne honam ani, anaa pɔmpɔ anaa sowanini asi no na adidi kɔ ne honam mu a, ɔnhunu sɛ ɛyɛ kwata. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa onipa no kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ Aaron anaa ne mmammarima no mu baako

The man that shall haue in the skin of his flesh a swelling or a skab, or a white spot, so that in the skinne of his flesh it be like the plague of leprosie, then he shalbe brought vnto Aaron the Priest, or vnto one of his sonnes the Priestes,

3 na ɔhwɛ ahonoeɛ no. Sɛ enwi a ɛsi ahonoeɛ hɔ dane yɛ fitaa na ahonoeɛ no atɔ honam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no da no adi sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no yɛ ɔkwatani.

And the Priest shall looke on the sore in the skinne of his flesh: if the heare in the sore be turned into white, and the sore seeme to be lower then the skinne of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosie. therefore the Priest shall looke on him, and pronounce him vncleane:

4 Na sɛ ahonoeɛ no ntɔɔ honam no mu na sɛ ahonoeɛ hɔ nwi no nso nyɛɛ fitaa a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no yi ɔyarefoɔ no firi nnipa mu nnanson.

But if the white spot be in the skinne of his flesh, and seeme not to bee lower then the skin, nor the heare thereof be turned vnto white, then the Priest shall shut vp him that hath the plague, seuen dayes.

5 Nnanson no duru a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no bio na sɛ ahonoeɛ no nsesaeɛ na ɛntrɛtrɛɛ honam no ani a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛsane atwa no asuo nnanson bio.

After, the Priest shall looke vpon him the seuenth day: and if the plague seeme to him to abide still, and the plague growe not in the skin, the Priest shall shut him vp yet seuen dayes more.

6 Afei ne nnanson so no, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ ne honam ani bio, na sɛ ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no ano abrɛ ase a ɛntrɛtrɛɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛka ato dwa sɛ, ɔyarefoɔ no ho atɔ no; ɔbɛkyerɛ mu sɛ ɛyɛ nsawa bi na ɛguu no berɛ tiawa bi mu. Enti sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no si ne ntoma a wɔbɛfa no sɛ wanya ayaresa awie.

Then the Priest shall looke on him againe the seuenth day, and if the plague be darke, and the sore grow not in the skinne, then the Priest shall pronounce him cleane, for it is a skab: therefore he shall washe his clothes and be cleane.

7 Na sɛ nso ɔyarefoɔ no ba ɔsɔfoɔ no nkyɛn ma ɔhwɛ no na yadeɛ no atrɛtrɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsane ba ɔsɔfoɔ no nkyɛn bio

But if the skab growe more in the skinne, after that he is seene of ye Priest for to be purged, he shall be seene of the Priest yet againe.

8 na ɔhwɛ no na sɛ yadeɛ no atrɛtrɛ ɔhonam no ani a, afei, ɔbɛpae mu aka sɛ amanneɛ kwan so no, ne ho nte na ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ.

Then the Priest shall consider, and if the skab growe in the skin, then the Priest shall pronounce him vncleane: for it is leprosie.

9 “Sɛ obi nya ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde no kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔhwɛ no.

When the plague of leprosie is in a man, he shalbe brought vnto the Priest,

10 Sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ nwi no bi ayɛ fitaa na ekuro atɔ saa beaeɛ hɔ a,

And the Priest shall see him: and if the swelling be white in ye skin, and haue made ye heare white, and there be rawe flesh in the swelling,

11 na ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhonam ani nsaneyadeɛ, na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no de to dwa sɛ amanneɛ kwan so no, onipa no ho nte. Ɛba saa a, wɔnhwehwɛ yadeɛ no mu bio, ɛfiri sɛ ɛda adi pefee sɛ honam no ayɛ kwata.

It is an old leprosie in the skin of his flesh: and the Priest shall pronounce him vncleane, and shall not shut him vp, for he is vncleane.

12 “Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ kwata no adidi ne honam nyinaa firi ne tiri so kɔsi ne nan ase nyinaa a,

Also if the leprosie breake out in the skin, and the leprosie couer all the skin of the plague, from his head euen to his feete, wheresoeuer the Priest looketh,

13 ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ne ho te, ɛfiri sɛ, ne honam nyinaa adane ayɛ fitaa.

Then the Priest shall consider: and if the leprosie couer all his flesh, he shall pronounce the plague to bee cleane, because it is all turned into whitenesse: so he shalbe cleane.

14 Na sɛ akuro no bi pue ne honam no baabi foforɔ a, wɔbɛpae mu ka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.

But if there be raw flesh on him when he is seene, he shalbe vncleane.

15 Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka ntɛm ara a ɔhunu ekuro wɔ honam no fa baabi, ɛfiri sɛ akuro no kyerɛ sɛ kwata wɔ honam no mu.

For the Priest shall see the rawe flesh, and declare him to be vncleane: for the rawe flesh is vncleane, therefore it is the leprosie.

16 Na sɛ akuro no wu na ɛdane yɛ fitaa sɛ honam a aka no a, ɔkwatani no bɛkɔ ɔsɔfoɔ no hɔ bio.

Or if the rawe flesh change and be turned into white, then he shall come to the Priest,

17 Ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ honam no fa hɔ ayɛ fitaa deɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ne ho atɔ no.

And the Priest shall beholde him and if the sore be changed into white, then the Priest shall pronounce the plague cleane, for it is cleane.

18 “Sɛ pɔmpɔ si obi na ɛgyae

The flesh also in whose skin there is a bile and is healed,

19 na sɛ baabi a pɔmpɔ no siiɛ no biribi hyɛnn, bi anaa deɛ ɛbere kakra hono wɔ hɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ne ho kɔkyerɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.

And in ye place of the bile there be a white swelling, or a white spot somewhat reddish, it shall be seene of the Priest.

20 Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na yadeɛ no adidi kɔ ne honam mu na enwi a ɛwɔ honam no hɔ no ayɛ fitaa a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ ɔyarefoɔ no ho nte, ɛfiri sɛ, kwata apue afiri pɔmpɔ no mu.

And when the Priest seeth it, if it appeare lower then the skinne, and the heare thereof bee changed into white, ye Priest then shall pronounce him vncleane: for it is a plague of leprosie, broken out in the bile.

21 Nanso sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ enwi fitaa biara nni baabi a yadeɛ no wɔ hɔ no, na yadeɛ no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na ahosuo no yɛ nsonso a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson.

But if the Priest looke on it, and there be no white heares therein, and if it bee not lower then the skin, but be darker, then the Priest shall shut him vp seuen dayes.

22 Saa ɛberɛ no mu sɛ beaeɛ hɔ no trɛtrɛ a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.

And if it spred abroad in the flesh, ye Priest shall pronounce him vncleane, for it is a sore.

23 Na sɛ beaeɛ a ɛhɔ ayɛ hyɛnn no anhono bio na antrɛtrɛ a, na ɛyɛ pɔmpɔ no twa kɛkɛ enti ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ, ne ho te.

But if the spot continue in his place, and growe not, it is a burning bile: therefore the Priest shall declare him to be cleane.

24 “Sɛ obi hyehye na sɛ nhyehyeeɛ no mu yɛ kɔkɔɔ ne fitaa anaa fitaa a,

If there be any flesh, in whose skin there is an hote burning, and the quick flesh of ye burning haue a white spot, somewhat reddish or pale,

25 ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ nhyehyeeɛ hɔ. Sɛ nwi a ɛwɔ beaeɛ a ɛhɔ nnii dɛm biara no dane yɛ fitaa na sɛ ɛyɛ adeɛ a adidi kɔ honam no mu a, na ɛyɛ kwata na apue afiri nhyehyeeɛ no mu, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ onipa no yɛ ɔkwatani.

Then the Priest shall looke vpon it: and if the heare in that spot be changed into white, and it appeare lower then the skin, it is a leprosie broken out in the burning therefore the Priest shall pronounce him vncleane: for it is the plague of leprosie.

26 Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ hunu sɛ nwi fitaa nni beaeɛ a ɛhɔ yɛ hyɛnn no, na sɛ hyɛnn no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na yadeɛ no regyae a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛyi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson

But if the Priest looke on it, and there be no white heare in the spot, and be no lower then the other skinne, but be darker, then the Priest shall shut him vp seuen dayes.

27 na wahwɛ no bio ne nnanson so. Sɛ yadeɛ no trɛ fa ɔhonam no ani a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ kwata ayɛ onipa no.

After, the Priest shall looke on him the seuenth day: if it be growen abroad in the skinne, then the Priest shall pronounce him vncleane: for it is the plague of leprosie.

28 Nanso sɛ honam no fa hɔ a ayɛ hyɛnn no antrɛtrɛ honam no ani, na sɛ ɛyɛ sɛ deɛ ɛhɔ retwintwam no a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ nhyehyeeɛ twa bi, enti ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛda no adi sɛ ɔnyare kwata.

And if the spot abide in his place, not growing in the skin, but is darke, it is a rising of the burning: the Priest shall therefore declare him cleane, for it is the drying vp of the burning.

29 “Sɛ ekuro da ɔbarima anaa ɔbaa bi tirim anaa nʼafono ho a,

If also a man or woman hath a sore on the head or in the beard,

30 ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ; sɛ ɔhwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no adidi kɔ honam no mu na ɔsane hunu enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ wɔ ekuro no mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔpae mu ka sɛ onipa no yare kwata.

Then the Priest shall see his sore: and if it appeare lower then the skin, and there be in it a small yellow haire, then the Priest shall pronouce him vncleane: for it is a blacke spot, and leprosie of the head or of the beard.

31 Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ na ɔhunu sɛ yadeɛ no nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu, na mmom, ɛwɔ honam no ani a enwi tuntum wɔ mu a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi onipa no firi nnipa mu nnanson,

And if the Priest looke on the sore of the blacke spotte, and if it seeme not lower then the skinne, nor haue any blacke heare in it, then the Priest shall shut vp him, that hath the sore of the blacke spot, seuen dayes.

32 na ne nnanson so no, wɔsane hwɛ no bio. Sɛ yadeɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ na enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ nnaa ne ho adi wɔ mu na ɛnnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu a,

After, in the seuenth day the Priest shall looke on the sore: and if the blacke spot growe not, and there be in it no yelowe heare, and the blacke spot seeme not lower then the skinne,

33 ɔbɛwerɛ enwi a atwa ekuro no ho ahyia nyinaa (na mmom ɛnyɛ ekuro no mu ankasa) na ɔsɔfoɔ no ayi no afiri nnipa mu nnanson bio.

Then he shalbe shauen, but the place of the blacke spot shall he not shaue: but the Priest shall shut vp him, that hath the blacke spot, seuen dayes more.

34 Ne nnanson so, ɔbɛsane ahwɛ no bio na sɛ yadeɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ, nnidi nkɔɔ honam no mu a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛpae mu aka sɛ onipa no ho ate na sɛ ɔsi ne ntoma wie a, na afei wadi mu.

And the seuenth day the Priest shall looke on the blacke spot: and if the blacke spot growe not in the skinne, nor seeme lower then the other skinne, then the Priest shall clense him, and hee shall wash his clothes, and be cleane.

35 Na sɛ akyire no saa yadeɛ no trɛtrɛ a,

But if the blacke spot growe abroad in the flesh after his clensing,

36 ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hwɛ no bio a ɔnhwɛ sɛ enwi a ɛte sɛ akokɔsradeɛ fra yadeɛ no mu na ɔpae mu ka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.

Then the Priest shall looke on it: and if the blacke spot grow in the skin, the Priest shall not seeke for the yelowe heare: for he is vncleane.

37 Na sɛ yadeɛ no trɛ a ɛretrɛtrɛ no gyae na sɛ enwi tuntum fu wɔ beaeɛ hɔ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ne ho atɔ no a kwata biara nni ne ho enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ, ne ho ate.

But if ye blacke spot seeme to him to abide, and that blacke heare growe therein, the blacke spot is healed, he is cleane, and the Priest shall declare him to be cleane.

38 “Sɛ ɔbarima anaa ɔbaa bi honam ani yɛ fitaa nahanaha,

Furthermore if there bee many white spots in the skin of the flesh of man or woman,

39 na akyire no, honam no ani dum ara na ɛredum a, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ kwata ayɛ onipa no, na mmom, ɛyɛ yare foforɔ bi.

Then the Priest shall consider: and if the spots in the skin of their flesh be somewhat darke and white withall, it is but a white spot broken out in the skin: therefore he is cleane.

40 “Sɛ obi tiri so pa a, ɛwom sɛ ne tiri so apa deɛ, nanso ɛno nkyerɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔkwatani!

And the man whose heare is fallen off his head, and is balde, is cleane.

41 Sɛ obi tiri so pa firi ne moma so a, na ne moma so ara na apa, na ɛnkyerɛ sɛ ɛyɛ kwata.

And if his head lose the heare on the forepart, and be balde before, he is cleane.

42 Na mmom, sɛ nsisiiɛ nkɔkɔɔ a fitaa frafra mu wɔ atipa no so a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ebia, kwata pɛ sɛ ɛyɛ saa onipa no.

But if there be in the balde head, or in the balde forehead a white reddish sore, it is a leprosie springing in his balde head, or in his balde forehead.

43 Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhwɛ no na sɛ biribi kɔkɔɔ aboa ne ho baabi te sɛ kwata a,

Therefore the Priest shall looke vpon it, and if the rising of the sore bee white reddish in his balde head, or in his bald forehead, appearing like leprosie in the skin of the flesh,

44 na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, kwata ayɛ no, enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no pae mu ka sɛ, onipa no yare kwata.

He is a leper and vncleane: therefore the Priest shall pronounce him altogether vncleane: for the sore is in his head.

45 “Onipa biara a wɔbɛhunu sɛ ɔyare kwata no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔfira ntoma a atete na ɔma ne tirinwi fu, twa mpɛsɛmpɛsɛ na ɔkata nʼanim fa na ɔnam a ɔteateam sɛ, ‘Me ho nte! Me ho nte!’

The leper also in whom the plague is, shall haue his clothes rent, and his head bare, and shall put a couering vpon his lips, and shall cry, I am vncleane, I am vncleane.

46 Na nna dodoɔ a yadeɛ no nkɔeɛ no deɛ, wɔbɛfa ɔyarefoɔ no sɛ ne ho nte enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena kuro no akyi baabi.

As long as the disease shall be vpon him, he shalbe polluted, for he is vncleane: he shall dwell alone, without the campe shall his habitation be.

47 “Sɛ kwata ho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi ka atadeɛ mu

Also the garment that the plague of leprosie is in, whether it be a wollen garment or a linen garment,

48 kuntutam anaa nweratam, aboa nhoma anaa biribiara a wɔde aboa nwoma ayɛ mu,

Whether it bee in the warpe or in ye woofe of linen or of wollen, either in a skin, or in any thing made of skin,

49 na sɛ nsisiiɛ ahahammono anaa kɔkɔɔ wɔ mu a, ebia na ɛyɛ kwata, enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde kɔma ɔsɔfoɔ na ɔhwɛ.

And if the sore be greene or somewhat reddish in the garment or in ye skin, or in the warpe, or in the woofe, or in any thing that is made of skin, it is a plague of leprosie and shalbe shewed vnto the Priest.

50 Ɔsɔfoɔ no de bɛkɔ akɔsie nnanson

Then the Priest shall see the plague, and shut vp it that hath the plague, seuen dayes,

51 na nnanson so no, wasane ahwɛ bio. Na sɛ ɔhunu sɛ nsisiiɛ no atrɛtrɛ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɛyɛ kwata a ɛtumi sane nnipa,

And shall looke on the plague the seuenth day: if the plague growe in the garment or in the warpe, or in the woofe, or in the skinne, or in any thing that is made of skin, that plague is a fretting leprosie and vncleane.

52 enti ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde ogya hye ntoma, kuntu ne ntadetam ne aboa nhoma no nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnam yeinom so bɛtumi ama yadeɛ no asane nnipa.

And hee shall burne the garment, or the warpe, or the woofe, whether it bee wollen or linen, or any thing that is made of skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a freating leprosie, therefore it shalbe burnt in the fire.

53 “Na sɛ ne nnanson so no ɔhwɛ na sɛ nsisiiɛ no ntrɛtrɛeɛ a,

If the Priest yet see that the plague grow not in the garment, or in the woofe, or in whatsoeuer thing of skin it be,

54 ɔsɔfoɔ no bɛhyɛ ama wɔasi nneɛma a wɔdwene sɛ yadeɛ no bi wɔ mu no no nyinaa na wɔakora no baabi bio nnanson.

Then the Priest shall commaund them to wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it vp seuen dayes more.

55 Sɛ nnanson bio akyi faako a yadeɛ no wɔ hɔ no nsesaa nʼahosuo na ɛntrɛtrɛɛ a, wɔbɛfa no sɛ ɛyɛ kwata enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye adeɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ, yadeɛ no adidi kɔ mu ara yie.

Againe ye Priest shall looke on the plague, after it is washed: and if the plague haue not changed his colour, though the plague haue spred no further, it is vncleane: thou shalt burne it in the fire, for it is a fret inwarde, whether the spot bee in the bare place of the whole, or in part thereof.

56 Na sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ no hunu sɛ nneɛmasie no akyi, nsisiiɛ no ano abrɛ ase a, ɔbɛtwa hɔ afiri ntoma anaa aboa nhoma a wɔde adi dwuma bi no mu.

And if the Priest see that the plague bee darker, after that it is washed, he shall cut it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warpe, or out of the woofe.

57 Na sɛ ɛsane ba bio deɛ a, na ɛyɛ kwata enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye no.

And if it appeare stil in ye garment or in the warpe, or in the woofe, or in any thing made of skin, it is a spreading leprie: thou shalt burne the thing wherein the plague is, in the fire.

58 Sɛ wɔsi na asɛm biara amma ho a, wɔtumi de di dwuma biara ɛberɛ a wɔasane asi bio no.”

If thou hast washed ye garment or ye warpe, or ye woofe, or whatsouer thing of skin it be, if the plague be departed therefrom, then shall it be washed the second time, and be cleane.

59 Yeinom ne mmara a ɛfa kwata a ɛwɔ ntoma anaa biribiara a wɔde aboa nwoma ayɛ a wɔnam so da no adi sɛ kwata wɔ dekodeɛ no mu anaa ebi nni mu no ho.

This is the lawe of the plague of leprosie in a garment of wollen or linnen, or in the warpe, or in the woofe, or in any thing of skin, to make it cleane or vncleane.
