< Leviticus 13 >

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron, dicens:
And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 Homo, in cuius cute et carne ortus fuerit diversus color sive pustula, aut quasi lucens quippiam, id est plaga lepræ, adducetur ad Aaron sacerdotem, vel ad unum quemlibet filiorum eius.
When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh like the plague of leprosy; then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests:
3 Qui cum viderit lepram in cute, et pilos in album mutatos colorem, ipsamque speciem lepræ humiliorem cute et carne reliqua; plaga lepræ est, et ad arbitrium eius separabitur.
And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.
4 Sin autem lucens candor fuerit in cute, nec humilior carne reliqua, et pili coloris pristini, recludet eum sacerdos septem diebus,
If the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white; then the priest shall shut up him that has the plague seven days:
5 et considerabit die septimo: et si quidem lepra ultra non creverit, nec transierit in cute priores terminos, rursum recludet eum septem diebus aliis.
And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plague spread not in the skin; then the priest shall shut him up seven days more:
6 Et die septimo contemplabitur: si obscurior fuerit lepra, et non creverit in cute, mundabit eum, quia scabies est: lavabitque homo vestimenta sua, et mundus erit.
And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague be somewhat dark, and the plague spread not in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean: it is but a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
7 Quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est, et redditus munditiæ, iterum lepra creverit; adducetur ad eum,
But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he has been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again.
8 et immunditiæ condemnabitur.
And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy.
9 Plaga lepræ si fuerit in homine, adducetur ad sacerdotem,
When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;
10 et videbit eum. Cumque color albus in cute fuerit, et capillorum mutaverit aspectum, ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit:
And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the rising be white in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising;
11 lepra vetustissima iudicabitur, atque inolita cuti. Contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos, et non recludet, quia perspicuæ immunditiæ est.
It is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up: for he is unclean.
12 Sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute, et operuerit omnem cutem a capite usque ad pedes, quidquid sub aspectum oculorum cadit,
And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of him that has the plague from his head even to his foot, wherever the priest looks;
13 considerabit eum sacerdos, et teneri lepra mundissima iudicabit: eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit, et idcirco homo mundus erit.
Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean that has the plague: it is all turned white: he is clean.
14 Quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit,
But when raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
15 tunc sacerdotis iudicio polluetur, et inter immundos reputabitur. Caro enim viva si lepra aspergitur, immunda est.
And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy.
16 Quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem, et totum hominem operuerit,
Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed to white, he shall come to the priest;
17 considerabit eum sacerdos, et mundum esse decernet.
And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce him clean that has the plague: he is clean.
18 Caro autem et cutis in qua ulcus natum est et sanatum,
The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil, and is healed,
19 et in loco ulceris cicatrix alba apparuerit, sive subrufa, adducetur homo ad sacerdotem:
And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be showed to the priest;
20 qui cum viderit locum lepræ humiliorem carne reliqua, et pilos versos in candorem, contaminabit eum: plaga enim lepræ orta est in ulcere.
And if, when the priest sees it, behold, it be in sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil.
21 Quod si pilus coloris est pristini, et cicatrix subobscura, et vicina carne non est humilior, recludet eum septem diebus.
But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white hairs therein, and if it be not lower than the skin, but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
22 Et si quidem creverit, adiudicabit eum lepræ.
And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
23 Sin autem steterit in loco suo, ulceris est cicatrix, et homo mundus erit.
But if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not, it is a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
24 Caro autem et cutis, quam ignis exusserit, et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem,
Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burns have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;
25 considerabit eam sacerdos, et ecce versa est in alborem, et locus eius reliqua cute est humilior: contaminabit eum, quia plaga lepræ in cicatrice orta est.
Then the priest shall look on it: and, behold, if the hair in the bright spot be turned white, and it be in sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out of the burning: why the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
26 Quod si pilorum color non fuerit immutatus, nec humilior plaga carne reliqua, et ipsa lepræ species fuerit subobscura, recludet eum septem diebus,
But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be no white hair in the bright spot, and it be no lower than the other skin, but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
27 et die septimo contemplabitur: si creverit in cute lepra, contaminabit eum.
And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and if it be spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
28 Sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus, plaga combustionis est, et idcirco mundabitur, quia cicatrix est combusturæ.
And if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread not in the skin, but it be somewhat dark; it is a rising of the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean: for it is an inflammation of the burning.
29 Vir, sive mulier, in cuius capite vel barba germinaverit lepra, videbit eos sacerdos,
If a man or woman have a plague on the head or the beard;
30 et si quidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua, et capillus flavus, solitoque subtilior; contaminabit eos, quia lepra capitis ac barbæ est.
Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold, if it be in sight deeper than the skin; and there be in it a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a dry scale, even a leprosy on the head or beard.
31 Sin autem viderit locum maculæ æqualem vicinæ carni, et capillum nigrum: recludet eum septem diebus,
And if the priest look on the plague of the scale, and, behold, it be not in sight deeper than the skin, and that there is no black hair in it; then the priest shall shut up him that has the plague of the scale seven days:
32 et die septimo intuebitur. Si non creverit macula, et capillus sui coloris est, et locus plagæ carni reliquæ æqualis:
And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and, behold, if the scale spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scale be not in sight deeper than the skin;
33 radetur homo absque loco maculæ, et includetur septem diebus aliis.
He shall be shaven, but the scale shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut up him that has the scale seven days more:
34 Si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo, nec humilior carne reliqua, mundabit eum, lotisque vestibus suis mundus erit.
And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scale: and, behold, if the scale be not spread in the skin, nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
35 Sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute,
But if the scale spread much in the skin after his cleansing;
36 non quæret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit immutatus, quia aperte immundus est.
Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scale be spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he is unclean.
37 Porro si steterit macula, et capilli nigri fuerint, noverit hominem sanatum esse, et confidenter eum pronunciet mundum.
But if the scale be in his sight at a stay, and that there is black hair grown up therein; the scale is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 Vir, sive mulier, in cuius cute candor apparuerit,
If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots;
39 intuebitur eos sacerdos. Si deprehenderit subobscurum alborem lucere in cute, sciat non esse lepram, sed maculam coloris candidi, et hominem mundum.
Then the priest shall look: and, behold, if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be darkish white; it is a freckled spot that grows in the skin; he is clean.
40 Vir, de cuius capite capilli fluunt, calvus et mundus est:
And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is he clean.
41 et si a fronte ceciderint pili, recalvaster et mundus est.
And he that has his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he clean.
42 Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus,
And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
43 et hoc sacerdos viderit, condemnabit eum haud dubiæ lepræ, quæ orta est in calvitio.
Then the priest shall look on it: and, behold, if the rising of the sore be white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appears in the skin of the flesh;
44 Quicumque ergo maculatus fuerit lepra, et separatus est ad arbitrium sacerdotis,
He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
45 habebit vestimenta dissuta, caput nudum, os veste contectum, contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit.
And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bore, and he shall put a covering on his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
46 Omni tempore quo leprosus est, et immundus, solus habitabit extra castra.
All the days wherein the plague shall be in him he shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp shall his habitation be.
47 Vestis lanea sive linea, quæ lepram habuerit
The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it be a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
48 in stamine atque subtegmine, aut certe pellis, vel quidquid ex pelle confectum est,
Whether it be in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of woolen; whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
49 si alba vel rufa macula fuerit infecta, lepra reputabitur, ostendeturque sacerdoti.
And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be showed to the priest:
50 Qui consideratam recludet septem diebus:
And the priest shall look on the plague, and shut up it that has the plague seven days:
51 et die septimo rursus aspiciens, si deprehenderit crevisse, lepra perseverans est: pollutum iudicabit vestimentum, et omne in quo fuerit inventa:
And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day: if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any work that is made of skin; the plague is a fretting leprosy; it is unclean.
52 et idcirco comburetur flammis.
He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woolen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a fretting leprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
53 Quod si eam viderit non crevisse,
And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin;
54 præcipiet, et lavabunt id, in quo lepra est, recludetque illud septem diebus aliis.
Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more:
55 Et cum viderit faciem quidem pristinam non reversam, nec tamen crevisse lepram, immundum iudicabit, et igne comburet, eo quod infusa sit in superficie vestimenti vel per totum, lepra.
And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not changed his color, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bore within or without.
56 Sin autem obscurior fuerit locus lepræ, postquam vestis est lota, abrumpet eum, et a solido dividet.
And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague be somewhat dark after the washing of it; then he shall rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
57 Quod si ultra apparuerit in his locis, quæ prius immaculata erant, lepra volatilis et vaga: debet igne comburi.
And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreading plague: you shall burn that wherein the plague is with fire.
58 Si cessaverit, lavabit aqua ea, quæ pura sunt, secundo, et munda erunt.
And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatever thing of skin it be, which you shall wash, if the plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean.
59 Ista est lex lepræ vestimenti lanei et linei, staminis, atque subtegminis, omnisque supellectilis pelliceæ, quomodo mundari debeat, vel contaminari.
This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woolen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
