1Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2Hic est ritus leprosi, quando mundandus est. Adducetur ad sacerdotem:
2“This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the priest,
3qui egressus de castris, cum invenerit lepram esse mundatam,
3and the priest shall go out of the camp. The priest shall examine him. Behold, if the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper,
4præcipiet ei, qui purificatur, ut offerat duos passeres vivos pro se, quibus vesci licitum est, et lignum cedrinum, vermiculumque et hyssopum.
4then the priest shall command them to take for him who is to be cleansed two living clean birds, cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop.
5Et unum ex passeribus immolari jubebit in vase fictili super aquas viventes:
5The priest shall command them to kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water.
6alium autem vivum cum ligno cedrino, et cocco et hyssopo, tinget in sanguine passeris immolati,
6As for the living bird, he shall take it, the cedar wood, the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water.
7quo asperget illum, qui mundandus est, septies, ut jure purgetur: et dimittet passerem vivum, ut in agrum avolet.
7He shall sprinkle on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird go into the open field.
8Cumque laverit homo vestimenta sua, radet omnes pilos corporis, et lavabitur aqua: purificatusque ingredietur castra, ita dumtaxat ut maneat extra tabernaculum suum septem diebus,
8“He who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water; and he shall be clean. After that he shall come into the camp, but shall dwell outside his tent seven days.
9et die septimo radet capillos capitis, barbamque et supercilia, ac totius corporis pilos. Et lotis rursum vestibus et corpore,
9It shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows. He shall shave off all his hair. He shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his body in water. Then he shall be clean.
10die octavo assumet duos agnos immaculatos, et ovem anniculam absque macula, et tres decimas similæ in sacrificium, quæ conspersa sit oleo, et seorsum olei sextarium.
10“On the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without defect, one ewe lamb a year old without defect, three tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.
11Cumque sacerdos purificans hominem, statuerit eum, et hæc omnia coram Domino in ostio tabernaculi testimonii,
11The priest who cleanses him shall set the man who is to be cleansed, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
12tollet agnum et offeret eum pro delicto, oleique sextarium: et oblatis ante Dominum omnibus,
12“The priest shall take one of the male lambs, and offer him for a trespass offering, with the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.
13immolabit agnum, ubi solet immolari hostia pro peccato, et holocaustum, id est, in loco sancto. Sicut enim pro peccato, ita et pro delicto ad sacerdotem pertinet hostia: Sancta sanctorum est.
13He shall kill the male lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of the sanctuary; for as the sin offering is the priest’s, so is the trespass offering. It is most holy.
14Assumensque sacerdos de sanguine hostiæ, quæ immolata est pro delicto, ponet super extremum auriculæ dextræ ejus qui mundatur, et super pollices manus dextræ et pedis:
14The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.
15et de olei sextario mittet in manum suam sinistram,
15The priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand.
16tingetque digitum dextrum in eo, et asperget coram Domino septies.
16The priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD.
17Quod autem reliquum est olei in læva manu, fundet super extremum auriculæ dextræ ejus qui mundatur, et super pollices manus ac pedis dextri, et super sanguinem qui effusus est pro delicto,
17The priest shall put some of the rest of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering.
18et super caput ejus.
18The rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD.
19Rogabitque pro eo coram Domino, et faciet sacrificium pro peccato: tunc immolabit holocaustum,
19“The priest shall offer the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness. Afterward he shall kill the burnt offering;
20et ponet illud in altari cum libamentis suis, et homo rite mundabitur.
20then the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meal offering on the altar. The priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
21Quod si pauper est, et non potest manus ejus invenire quæ dicta sunt pro delicto, assumet agnum ad oblationem, ut roget pro eo sacerdos, decimamque partem similæ conspersæ oleo in sacrificium, et olei sextarium,
21“If he is poor, and can’t afford so much, then he shall take one male lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a meal offering, and a log of oil;
22duosque turtures sive duos pullos columbæ, quorum unus sit pro peccato, et alter in holocaustum:
22and two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to afford; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.
23offeretque ea die octavo purificationis suæ sacerdoti, ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii coram Domino.
23“On the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, before the LORD.
24Qui suscipiens agnum pro delicto et sextarium olei, levabit simul:
24The priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.
25immolatoque agno, de sanguine ejus ponet super extremum auriculæ dextræ illius qui mundatur, et super pollices manus ejus ac pedis dextri:
25He shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering. The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.
26olei vero partem mittet in manum suam sinistram,
26The priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand;
27in quo tingens digitum dextræ manus asperget septies coram Domino:
27and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD.
28tangetque extremum dextræ auriculæ illius qui mundatur, et pollices manus ac pedis dextri, in loco sanguinis qui effusus est pro delicto:
28Then the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass offering.
29reliquam autem partem olei, quæ est in sinistra manu, mittet super caput purificati, ut placet pro eo Dominum:
29The rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD.
30et turturem sive pullum columbæ offeret,
30He shall offer one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, which ever he is able to afford,
31unum pro delicto, et alterum in holocaustum cum libamentis suis.
31of the kind he is able to afford, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meal offering. The priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before the LORD.”
32Hoc est sacrificium leprosi, qui habere non potest omnia in emundationem sui.
32This is the law for him in whom is the plague of leprosy, who is not able to afford the sacrifice for his cleansing.
33Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
33The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
34Cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan, quam ego dabo vobis in possessionem, si fuerit plaga lepræ in ædibus,
34“When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in the land of your possession,
35ibit cujus est domus, nuntians sacerdoti, et dicet: Quasi plaga lepræ videtur mihi esse in domo mea.
35then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, ‘There seems to me to be some sort of plague in the house.’
36At ille præcipiet ut efferant universa de domo, priusquam ingrediatur eam, et videat utrum leprosa sit, ne immunda fiant omnia quæ in domo sunt. Intrabitque postea ut consideret lepram domus:
36The priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest goes in to examine the plague, that all that is in the house not be made unclean. Afterward the priest shall go in to inspect the house.
37et cum viderit in parietibus illius quasi valliculas pallore sive rubore deformes, et humiliores superficie reliqua,
37He shall examine the plague; and behold, if the plague is in the walls of the house with hollow streaks, greenish or reddish, and it appears to be deeper than the wall,
38egredietur ostium domus, et statim claudet illam septem diebus.
38then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
39Reversusque die septimo, considerabit eam: si invenerit crevisse lepram,
39The priest shall come again on the seventh day, and look. If the plague has spread in the walls of the house,
40jubebit erui lapides in quibus lepra est, et projici eos extra civitatem in locum immundum:
40then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the plague, and cast them into an unclean place outside of the city.
41domum autem ipsam radi intrinsecus per circuitum, et spargi pulverem rasuræ extra urbem in locum immundum,
41He shall cause the inside of the house to be scraped all over. They shall pour out the mortar that they scraped off outside of the city into an unclean place.
42lapidesque alios reponi pro his qui ablati fuerint, et luto alio liniri domum.
42They shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.
43Sin autem postquam eruti sunt lapides, et pulvis erasus, et alia terra lita,
43“If the plague comes again, and breaks out in the house after he has taken out the stones, and after he has scraped the house, and after it was plastered,
44ingressus sacerdos viderit reversam lepram, et parietes respersos maculis, lepra est perseverans, et immunda domus:
44then the priest shall come in and look; and behold, if the plague has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew in the house. It is unclean.
45quam statim destruent, et lapides ejus ac ligna, atque universum pulverem projicient extra oppidum in locum immundum.
45He shall break down the house, its stones, and its timber, and all the house’s mortar. He shall carry them out of the city into an unclean place.
46Qui intraverit domum quando clausa est, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
46“Moreover he who goes into the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening.
47et qui dormierit in ea, et comederit quippiam, lavabit vestimenta sua.
47He who lies down in the house shall wash his clothes; and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes.
48Quod si introiens sacerdos viderit lepram non crevisse in domo, postquam denuo lita fuerit, purificabit eam reddita sanitate:
48“If the priest shall come in, and examine it, and behold, the plague hasn’t spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
49et in purificationem ejus sumet duos passeres, lignumque cedrinum, et vermiculum atque hyssopum:
49To cleanse the house he shall take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop.
50et immolato uno passere in vase fictili super aquas vivas,
50He shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water.
51tollet lignum cedrinum, et hyssopum, et coccum, et passerem vivum, et tinget omnia in sanguine passeris immolati, atque in aquis viventibus, et asperget domum septies,
51He shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times.
52purificabitque eam tam in sanguine passeris quam in aquis viventibus, et in passere vivo, lignoque cedrino et hyssopo atque vermiculo.
52He shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop, and with the scarlet;
53Cumque dimiserit passerem avolare in agrum libere, orabit pro domo, et jure mundabitur.
53but he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So shall he make atonement for the house; and it shall be clean.”
54Ista est lex omnis lepræ et percussuræ,
54This is the law for any plague of leprosy, and for an itch,
55lepræ vestium et domorum,
55and for the destructive mildew of a garment, and for a house,
56cicatricis et erumpentium papularum, lucentis maculæ, et in varias species, coloribus immutatis,
56and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot;
57ut possit sciri quo tempore mundum quid, vel immundum sit.
57to teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean. This is the law of leprosy.
