Berean Standard Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
1Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron, dicens:
2“When someone has a swelling or rash or bright spot on his skin that could become an infectious skin disease, he must be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons who is a priest.
2Homo, in cujus 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 ejus.
3The priest is to examine the infection on his skin, and if the hair in the infection has turned white and the sore appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a skin disease. After the priest examines him, he must pronounce him unclean.
3Qui 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 ejus separabitur.
4If, however, the spot on his skin is white and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
4Sin autem lucens candor fuerit in cute, nec humilior carne reliqua, et pili coloris pristini, recludet eum sacerdos septem diebus:
5On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine him, and if he sees that the infection is unchanged and has not spread on the skin, the priest must isolate him for another seven days.
5et considerabit die septimo: et si quidem lepra ultra non creverit, nec transierit in cute priores terminos, rursum recludet eum septem diebus aliis.
6The priest will examine him again on the seventh day, and if the sore has faded and has not spread on the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is a rash. The person must wash his clothes and be clean.
6Et die septimo contemplabitur: si obscurior fuerit lepra, et non creverit in cute, mundabit eum, quia scabies est: lavabitque homo vestimenta sua, et mundus erit.
7But if the rash spreads further on his skin after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he must present himself again to the priest.
7Quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est, et redditus munditiæ, iterum lepra creverit: adducetur ad eum,
8The priest will reexamine him, and if the rash has spread on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; he has a skin disease.
8et immunditiæ condemnabitur.
9When anyone develops a skin disease, he must be brought to the priest.
9Plaga lepræ si fuerit in homine, adducetur ad sacerdotem,
10The priest will examine him, and if there is a white swelling on the skin that has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,
10et videbit eum. Cumque color albus in cute fuerit, et capillorum mutaverit aspectum, ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit:
11it is a chronic skin disease and the priest must pronounce him unclean. He need not isolate him, for he is unclean.
11lepra vetustissima judicabitur, atque inolita cuti. Contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos, et non recludet, quia perspicuæ immunditiæ est.
12But if the skin disease breaks out all over his skin so that it covers all the skin of the infected person from head to foot, as far as the priest can see,
12Sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute, et operuerit omnem cutem a capite usque ad pedes, quidquid sub aspectum oculorum cadit,
13the priest shall examine him, and if the disease has covered his entire body, he is to pronounce the infected person clean. Since it has all turned white, he is clean.
13considerabit eum sacerdos, et teneri lepra mundissima judicabit: eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit, et idcirco homo mundus erit.
14But whenever raw flesh appears on someone, he will be unclean.
14Quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit,
15When the priest sees the raw flesh, he must pronounce him unclean. The raw flesh is unclean; it is a skin disease.
15tunc sacerdotis judicio polluetur, et inter immundos reputabitur: caro enim viva, si lepra aspergitur, immunda est.
16But if the raw flesh changes and turns white, he must go to the priest.
16Quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem, et totum hominem operuerit,
17The priest will reexamine him, and if the infection has turned white, the priest is to pronounce the infected person clean; then he is clean.
17considerabit eum sacerdos, et mundum esse decernet.
18When a boil appears on someone’s skin and it heals,
18Caro autem et cutis in qua ulcus natum est, et sanatum,
19and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot develops where the boil was, he must present himself to the priest.
19et in loco ulceris cicatrix alba apparuerit, sive subrufa, adducetur homo ad sacerdotem.
20The priest shall examine it, and if it appears to be beneath the skin and the hair in it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection that has broken out in the boil.
20Qui cum viderit locum lepræ humiliorem carne reliqua, et pilos versos in candorem, contaminabit eum: plaga enim lepræ orta est in ulcere.
21But when the priest examines it, if there is no white hair in it, and it is not beneath the skin and has faded, the priest shall isolate him for seven days.
21Quod si pilus coloris est pristini, et cicatrix subobscura, et vicina carne non est humilior, recludet eum septem diebus:
22If it spreads any further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is an infection.
22et si quidem creverit, adjudicabit eum lepræ;
23But if the spot remains unchanged and does not spread, it is only the scar from the boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
23sin autem steterit in loco suo, ulceris est cicatrix, et homo mundus erit.
24When there is a burn on someone’s skin and the raw area of the burn becomes reddish-white or white,
24Caro autem et cutis, quam ignis exusserit, et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem,
25the priest must examine it. If the hair in the spot has turned white and the spot appears to be deeper than the skin, it is a disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection.
25considerabit eam sacerdos: et ecce versa est in alborem, et locus ejus reliqua cute est humilior, contaminabit eum, quia plaga lepræ in cicatrice orta est.
26But if the priest examines it and there is no white hair in the spot, and it is not beneath the skin but has faded, the priest shall isolate him for seven days.
26Quod si pilorum color non fuerit immutatus, nec humilior plaga carne reliqua, et ipsa lepræ species fuerit subobscura, recludet eum septem diebus,
27On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine him, and if it has spread further on the skin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a diseased infection.
27et die septimo contemplabitur: si creverit in cute lepra, contaminabit eum.
28But if the spot is unchanged and has not spread on the skin but has faded, it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest is to pronounce him clean; for it is only the scar from the burn.
28Sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus, plaga combustionis est, et idcirco mundabitur, quia cicatrix est combusturæ.
29If a man or woman has an infection on the head or chin,
29Vir, sive mulier, in cujus capite vel barba germinaverit lepra, videbit eos sacerdos.
30the priest shall examine the infection, and if it appears to be deeper than the skin and the hair in it is yellow and thin, the priest must pronounce him unclean; it is a scaly outbreak, an infectious disease of the head or chin.
30Et si quidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua, et capillus flavus, solitoque subtilior, contaminabit eos, quia lepra capitis ac barbæ est.
31But if the priest examines the scaly infection and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.
31Sin autem viderit locum maculæ æqualem vicinæ carni, et capillum nigrum: recludet eum septem diebus,
32On the seventh day the priest is to reexamine the infection, and if the scaly outbreak has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it, and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin,
32et die septimo intuebitur. Si non creverit macula, et capillus sui coloris est, et locus plagæ carni reliquæ æqualis:
33then the person must shave himself except for the scaly area. Then the priest shall isolate him for another seven days.
33radetur homo absque loco maculæ, et includetur septem diebus aliis.
34On the seventh day the priest shall examine the scaly outbreak, and if it has not spread on the skin and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, the priest is to pronounce him clean. He must wash his clothes, and he will be clean.
34Si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo, nec humilior carne reliqua, mundabit eum: lotisque vestibus suis, mundus erit.
35If, however, the scaly outbreak spreads further on the skin after his cleansing,
35Sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute,
36the priest is to examine him, and if the scaly outbreak has spread on the skin, the priest need not look for yellow hair; the person is unclean.
36non quæret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit immutatus, quia aperte immundus est.
37If, however, in his sight the scaly outbreak is unchanged and black hair has grown in it, then it has healed. He is clean, and the priest is to pronounce him clean.
37Porro si steterit macula, et capilli nigri fuerint, noverit hominem sanatum esse, et confidenter eum pronuntiet mundum.
38When a man or a woman has white spots on the skin,
38Vir, sive mulier, in cujus cute candor apparuerit,
39the priest shall examine them, and if the spots are dull white, it is a harmless rash that has broken out on the skin; the person is clean.
39intuebitur eos sacerdos. Si deprehenderit subobscurum alborem lucere in cute, sciat non esse lepram, sed maculam coloris candidi, et hominem mundum.
40Now if a man loses his hair and is bald, he is still clean.
40Vir, de cujus capite capilli fluunt, calvus et mundus est:
41Or if his hairline recedes and he is bald on his forehead, he is still clean.
41et si a fronte ceciderint pili, recalvaster et mundus est.
42But if there is a reddish-white sore on the bald head or forehead, it is an infectious disease breaking out on it.
42Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus,
43The priest is to examine him, and if the swelling of the infection on his bald head or forehead is reddish-white like a skin disease,
43et hoc sacerdos viderit, condemnabit eum haud dubiæ lepræ, quæ orta est in calvitio.
44the man is diseased; he is unclean. The priest must pronounce him unclean because of the infection on his head.
44Quicumque ergo maculatus fuerit lepra, et separatus est ad arbitrium sacerdotis,
45A diseased person must wear torn clothes and let his hair hang loose, and he must cover his mouth and cry out, ‘Unclean, unclean!’
45habebit vestimenta dissuta, caput nudum, os veste contectum, contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit.
46As long as he has the infection, he remains unclean. He must live alone in a place outside the camp.
46Omni tempore quo leprosus est et immundus, solus habitabit extra castra.
47If any fabric is contaminated with mildew —any wool or linen garment,
47Vestis lanea sive linea, quæ lepram habuerit,
48any weave or knit of linen or wool, or any article of leather—
48in stamine atque subtegmine, aut certe pellis, vel quidquid ex pelle confectum est,
49and if the mark in the fabric, leather, weave, knit, or leather article is green or red, then it is contaminated with mildew and must be shown to the priest.
49si alba vel rufa macula fuerit infecta, lepra reputabitur, ostendeturque sacerdoti:
50And the priest is to examine the mildew and isolate the contaminated fabric for seven days.
50qui consideratam recludet septem diebus:
51On the seventh day the priest shall reexamine it, and if the mildew has spread in the fabric, weave, knit, or leather, then regardless of how it is used, it is a harmful mildew; the article is unclean.
51et die septimo rursus aspiciens, si deprehenderit crevisse, lepra perseverans est: pollutum judicabit vestimentum, et omne in quo fuerit inventa:
52He is to burn the fabric, weave, or knit, whether the contaminated item is wool or linen or leather. Since the mildew is harmful, the article must be burned up.
52et idcirco comburetur flammis.
53But when the priest reexamines it, if the mildew has not spread in the fabric, weave, knit, or leather article,
53Quod si eam viderit non crevisse,
54the priest is to order the contaminated article to be washed and isolated for another seven days.
54præcipiet, et lavabunt id in quo lepra est, recludetque illud septem diebus aliis.
55After it has been washed, the priest is to reexamine it, and if the mildewed article has not changed in appearance, it is unclean. Even though the mildew has not spread, you must burn it, whether the rot is on the front or back.
55Et cum viderit faciem quidem pristinam non reversam, nec tamen crevisse lepram, immundum judicabit, et igne comburet, eo quod infusa sit in superficie vestimenti, vel per totum, lepra.
56If the priest examines it and the mildew has faded after it has been washed, he must cut the contaminated section out of the fabric, leather, weave, or knit.
56Sin autem obscurior fuerit locus lepræ, postquam vestis est lota, abrumpet eum, et a solido dividet.
57But if it reappears in the fabric, weave, or knit, or on any leather article, it is spreading. You must burn the contaminated article.
57Quod si ultra apparuerit in his locis, quæ prius immaculata erant, lepra volatilis et vaga, debet igne comburi.
58If the mildew disappears from the fabric, weave, or knit, or any leather article after washing, then it is to be washed again, and it will be clean.
58Si cessaverit, lavabit aqua ea, quæ pura sunt, secundo, et munda erunt.
59This is the law concerning a mildew contamination in wool or linen fabric, weave, or knit, or any leather article, for pronouncing it clean or unclean.”
59Ista est lex lepræ vestimenti lanei et linei, staminis, atque subtegminis, omnisque supellectilis pelliceæ, quomodo mundari debeat, vel contaminari.
