Liber Levitici

Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron, dicens:

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:

Et locuto es Domino ad Moyse, et Aarone, dicente:

Homo, 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.

The man in whose skin or flesh shall arise a different colour or a blister, or as it were something shining, that is the stroke of the leprosy, shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or any or of his sons.

Homine, in que cute et carne orto es diverso colore, sive pustula, aut quasi luce quippiame, id es, plaga de lepra, adduce ad Aarone sacerdote, vel ad uno quemlibe de filios de illo.

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 ejus separabitur.

And if he see the leprosy in his skin, and the hair turned white and the place where the leprosy appears lower than the skin and the rest of the flesh: it is the stroke of the leprosy, and upon his judgment he shall be separated.

Qui cum vide lepra in cute, et pilos in alba muta colore, et ipso specie de lepra humili cute et carne reliqua: plaga de lepra es, et ad arbitrio de illo separa.

Sin autem lucens candor fuerit in cute, nec humilior carne reliqua, et pili coloris pristini, recludet eum sacerdos septem diebus:

But if there be a shining whiteness in the skin, and not lower than the other flesh, and the hair be of the former colour, the priest shall shut him up seven days.

Sin autem luce candore es in cute, nec humili carne reliqua, et pilo de colore pristino, sacerdote reclude illo septeme die:

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 seventh day he shall look on him: and if the leprosy be grown no farther, and hath not spread itself in the skin, he shall shut him up again other seven days.

Et considera die septimo: et si quidem lepra ultra non cerne, nec transi in cute priore terminos, iterum reclude illo septeme die alio.

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 on the seventh day, he shall look on him. If the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall be clean.

Et die septimo contempla: si obscure es lepra, et non cerne in cute, munda illo, quia scabie es: et homine lava vestimentos suo, et mundo es.

Quod si postquam a sacerdote visus est, et redditus munditiæ, iterum lepra creverit: adducetur ad eum,

But, if the leprosy grow again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him:

Quod si postquam ab sacerdote viso es, et redde de munditia, iterum lepra cerne: adduce ad illo,

et immunditiæ condemnabitur.

And shall be condemned of uncleanness.

Et de immunditia condemna.

Plaga lepræ si fuerit in homine, adducetur ad sacerdotem,

If the stroke of the leprosy be in a man, he shall be brought to the priest:

Plaga de lepra si es in homine, adduce ad sacerdote,

et videbit eum. Cumque color albus in cute fuerit, et capillorum mutaverit aspectum, ipsa quoque caro viva apparuerit:

And he shall view him. And when there shall be a white colour in the skin, and it shall have changed the look of the hair, and the living flesh itself shall appear:

Et vide illo. Cumque colore alba in cute es, et de capillos muta aspectu, ipso etiam carne vivo appare:

lepra vetustissima judicabitur, atque inolita cuti. Contaminabit itaque eum sacerdos, et non recludet, quia perspicuæ immunditiæ est.

It shall be judged an inveterate leprosy, and grown into the skin. The priest therefore shall declare him unclean: and shall not shut him up, because he is evidently unclean.

Lepra vetusto iudica, et inoli cuto. Sacerdote itaque contamina illo, et non reclude, quia perspicuo de immunditia es.

Sin autem effloruerit discurrens lepra in cute, et operuerit omnem cutem a capite usque ad pedes, quidquid sub aspectum oculorum cadit,

But if the leprosy spring out running about in the skin, and cover all the skin from the head to the feet, whatsoever falleth under the sight of the eyes:

Sin autem effla discurre lepra in cute, et operi omni cute ab capite usque ad pedes, omni sub aspectu de oculos cade,

considerabit eum sacerdos, et teneri lepra mundissima judicabit: eo quod omnis in candorem versa sit, et idcirco homo mundus erit.

The priest shall view him, and shall judge that the leprosy which he has is very clean: because it is all turned into whiteness, and therefore the man shall be clean.

Sacerdote considera illo, et tene lepra mundo iudica: eo quod omni in candore verte es, et ergo homine mundo es.

Quando vero caro vivens in eo apparuerit,

But when the live flesh shall appear in him:

Quando vero carne vivente in eo appare,

tunc sacerdotis judicio polluetur, et inter immundos reputabitur: caro enim viva, si lepra aspergitur, immunda est.

Then by the judgment of the priest he shall be defiled, and shall be reckoned among the unclean. For live flesh, if it be spotted with leprosy, is unclean.

Tunc de sacerdote iudicio pollue, et inter immundo carne: nam vivo reputa, si lepra asperge, immundo es.

Quod si rursum versa fuerit in alborem, et totum hominem operuerit,

And if again it be turned into whiteness, and cover all the man:

Quod si iterum verte es in albore, et toto homine operi,

considerabit eum sacerdos, et mundum esse decernet.

The priest shall view him, and shall judge him to be clean.

Sacerdote considera illo, et mundo es decerne.

Caro autem et cutis in qua ulcus natum est, et sanatum,

When also there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has been healed:

Carne autem et cute in quo ulcere nasce es, et sana,

et in loco ulceris cicatrix alba apparuerit, sive subrufa, adducetur homo ad sacerdotem.

And in the place of the ulcer, there appeareth a white scar, or somewhat red, the man shall be brought to the priest.

Et in loco ulcere cicatrice alba appare, sive subrufa, homine adduce ad sacerdote.

Qui cum viderit locum lepræ humiliorem carne reliqua, et pilos versos in candorem, contaminabit eum: plaga enim lepræ orta est in ulcere.

And when he shall see the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hair turned white: he shall declare him unclean, for the plague of leprosy is broken out in the ulcer.

Qui cum vide loco de lepra humili carne reliqua, et pilos verte in candore, contamina illo: plaga nam de lepra ori es in ulcere.

Quod si pilus coloris est pristini, et cicatrix subobscura, et vicina carne non est humilior, recludet eum septem diebus:

But if the hair be of the former colour, and the scar somewhat obscure, and be not lower than the flesh that is near it: he shall shut him up seven days.

Quod si pilo de colore es pristino, et cicatrice subobscura, et vicino carne non es humili, reclude illo septeme die:

et si quidem creverit, adjudicabit eum lepræ;

And if it spread, he shall judge him to have the leprosy:

Et si quidem cerne, de lepra adiudica illo;

sin autem steterit in loco suo, ulceris est cicatrix, et homo mundus erit.

But if it stay in its place, it is but the scar of an ulcer: and the man shall be clean.

Sin autem sta in loco suo, ulcera es cicatrice, et homine mundo es.

Caro autem et cutis, quam ignis exusserit, et sanata albam sive rufam habuerit cicatricem,

The flesh also and skin that hath been burnt, and after it is healed hath a white or a red scar:

Carne autem et cute, igni exure quam, et sana alba sive rufa habe cicatrece,

considerabit eam sacerdos: et ecce versa est in alborem, et locus ejus reliqua cute est humilior, contaminabit eum, quia plaga lepræ in cicatrice orta est.

The priest shall view it, and if he see it turned white, and the place thereof is lower than the other skin: he shall declare him unclean, because the evil of leprosy is broken out in the scar.

Sacerdote considera illa: et ecce verte es in albore, et loco de illo reliqua cute es humili, contamina illo, quia plaga de lepra in cicatrice ori es.

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 colour of the hair be not changed, nor the blemish lower than the other flesh, and the appearance of the leprosy be somewhat obscure: he shall shut him up seven days,

Quod si de pilos colore non es immuta, nec humili plaga carne reliqua, et ipso de lepra specie es subobscura, reclude illo septeme die,

et die septimo contemplabitur: si creverit in cute lepra, contaminabit eum.

And on the seventh day he shall view him. If the leprosy be grown farther in the skin, he shall declare him unclean.

Et die septimo contempla: si lepra in cute cerne, contamina illo.

Sin autem in loco suo candor steterit non satis clarus, plaga combustionis est, et idcirco mundabitur, quia cicatrix est combusturæ.

But if the whiteness stay in its place, and be not very clear, it is the sore of a burning: and therefore he shall be cleansed, because it is only the scar of a burning.

Sin autem in loco suo candore sta non satis clara, plaga de combustione es, et ergo munda, quia cicatrice es de combustura.

Vir, sive mulier, in cujus capite vel barba germinaverit lepra, videbit eos sacerdos.

If the leprosy break out in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the priest shall see them,

Viro, sive muliere, in que capite vel barba lepra germina, sacerdote vide illos.

Et si quidem humilior fuerit locus carne reliqua, et capillus flavus, solitoque subtilior, contaminabit eos, quia lepra capitis ac barbæ est.

And if the place be lower than the other flesh, and the hair yellow, and thinner than usual: he shall declare them unclean, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard;

Et si quidem humili es loco carne reliqua, et capillo flavo, et solito subtile, contamina illos, quia lepra de capite et de barba es.

Sin autem viderit locum maculæ æqualem vicinæ carni, et capillum nigrum: recludet eum septem diebus,

But if he perceive the place of the spot is equal with the flesh that is near it, and the hair black: he shall shut him up seven days,

Sin autem vide loco de macula aequali de vicino ad carne, et capillo nigra: reclude illo septeme die,

et die septimo intuebitur. Si non creverit macula, et capillus sui coloris est, et locus plagæ carni reliquæ æqualis:

And on the seventh day he shall look upon it. If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:

Et die septimo intueor. Si non macula cerne, et capillo suo de colore es, et loco de plaga ad carne reliqua aequali:

radetur homo absque loco maculæ, et includetur septem diebus aliis.

The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot: and he shall be shut up other seven days.

Homine rade absque loco de macula, et include septeme die alio.

Si die septimo visa fuerit stetisse plaga in loco suo, nec humilior carne reliqua, mundabit eum: lotisque vestibus suis, mundus erit.

If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him: and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.

Si die septimo vide es sta plaga in loco suo, nec humili carne reliqua, munda illo: et lava vestes suo, mundo es.

Sin autem post emundationem rursus creverit macula in cute,

But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin:

Sin autem post emundatione iterum macula cerne in cute,

non quæret amplius utrum capillus in flavum colorem sit immutatus, quia aperte immundus est.

He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently unclean.

Non quaere ample utro capillo in flavo colore es immuta, quia aperte immundo es.

Porro si steterit macula, et capilli nigri fuerint, noverit hominem sanatum esse, et confidenter eum pronuntiet mundum.

But if the spot be stayed, and the hair be black, let him know that the man is healed: and let him confidently pronounce him clean.

Porro si sta macula, et capillos nigra es, nosce homine sana es, et confidenter illo pronuntia mundo.

Vir, sive mulier, in cujus cute candor apparuerit,

If a whiteness appear in the skin of a man or a woman,

Viro, sive muliere, in que cute candore appare,

intuebitur eos sacerdos. Si deprehenderit subobscurum alborem lucere in cute, sciat non esse lepram, sed maculam coloris candidi, et hominem mundum.

The priest shall view them. If he find that a darkish whiteness shineth in the skin, let him know that it is not the leprosy, but a white blemish, and that the man is clean.

Sacerdote intueor illos. Si depr(eh)enda subobscuro albore luce in cute, sci non es lepra, sed macula de colore candida, et homine mundo.

Vir, de cujus capite capilli fluunt, calvus et mundus est:

The man whose hair falleth off from his head, he is bald and clean:

Viro, de que capite capillos fla, calvo et mundo es:

et si a fronte ceciderint pili, recalvaster et mundus est.

And if the hair fall from his forehead, he is bald before and clean.

Et si ab fronte cade pilos, recalva et mundo es.

Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione albus vel rufus color fuerit exortus,

But if in the bald head or in the bald forehead there be risen a white or reddish colour:

Sin autem in calvitio sive in recalvatione alba vel rufa colore es exorior,

et hoc sacerdos viderit, condemnabit eum haud dubiæ lepræ, quæ orta est in calvitio.

And the priest perceive this, he shall condemn him undoubtedly of leprosy which is risen in the bald part.

Et sacerdote vide hoc, condemna illo haud dubio de lepra, que ori es in calvitio.

Quicumque ergo maculatus fuerit lepra, et separatus est ad arbitrium sacerdotis,

Now whosoever shall be defiled with the leprosy, and is separated by the judgment of the priest:

Omni ergo macula es lepra, et separa es ad arbitrio de sacerdote,

habebit vestimenta dissuta, caput nudum, os veste contectum, contaminatum ac sordidum se clamabit.

Shall have his clothes hanging loose, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth: and he shall cry out that he is defiled and unclean.

I habe vestimentos dissuta, capite nuda, ore veste contice, contamina et sordido se clama.

Omni tempore quo leprosus est et immundus, solus habitabit extra castra.

All the time that he is a leper and unclean he shall dwell alone without the camp.

Omni tempore quo leproso es et immundo, solo habita extra castros.

Vestis lanea sive linea, quæ lepram habuerit,

A woollen or linen garment that shall have the leprosy

Veste lanea sive linea, que habe lepra,

in stamine atque subtegmine, aut certe pellis, vel quidquid ex pelle confectum est,

In the warp, and the woof: or skin, or whatsoever is made of a skin:

In stamine et subtegmine, aut certe pelle, vel omni ex pelle conficie es,

si alba vel rufa macula fuerit infecta, lepra reputabitur, ostendeturque sacerdoti:

If it be infected with a white or red spot, it shall be accounted the leprosy, and shall be shewn to the priest.

Si alba vel rufa macula es inficie, lepra reputa, et ostende ad sacerdote:

qui consideratam recludet septem diebus:

And he shall look upon it and shall shut it up seven days.

Qui considera reclude septeme die:

et die septimo rursus aspiciens, si deprehenderit crevisse, lepra perseverans est: pollutum judicabit vestimentum, et omne in quo fuerit inventa:

And on the seventh day when he looketh on it again, if he find that it is grown, it is a fixed leprosy. He shall judge the garment unclean, and every thing wherein it shall be found.

Et die septimo iterum aspice, si depr(eh)enda cerne, lepra persevera es: pollue iudica vestimento, et omni in quo es inveni:

et idcirco comburetur flammis.

And therefore it shall be burnt with fire.

Et ergo combure flammos.

Quod si eam viderit non crevisse,

But if he see that it is not grown,

Quod si illa vide non cerne,

præcipiet, et lavabunt id in quo lepra est, recludetque illud septem diebus aliis.

He shall give orders, and they shall wash that part wherein the leprosy is: and he shall shut it up other seven days.

Praecipie, et lava id in quo lepra es, et reclude illo septeme die alio.

Et 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.

And when he shall see that the former colour is not returned, nor yet the leprosy spread, he shall judge it unclean: and shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has taken hold of the outside of the garment, or through the whole.

Et cum vide facie quidem pristino non reverte, nec tamen cerne lepra, immundo iudica, et igni combure, eo quod infunde es in superficie de vestimento, vel per toto, lepra.

Sin autem obscurior fuerit locus lepræ, postquam vestis est lota, abrumpet eum, et a solido dividet.

But if the place of the leprosy be somewhat dark, after the garment is washed, he shall tear it off, and divide it from that which is sound.

Sin autem obscure es loco de lepra, postquam veste es fer, abrumpe illo, et ab solido divide.

Quod si ultra apparuerit in his locis, quæ prius immaculata erant, lepra volatilis et vaga, debet igne comburi.

And if after this there appear in those places that before were without spot, a flying and wandering leprosy: it must be burnt with fire.

Quod si ultra appare in hoc locos, que ante immacula es, lepra volatile et vago, debe igni comberi.

Si cessaverit, lavabit aqua ea, quæ pura sunt, secundo, et munda erunt.

If it cease, he shall wash with water the parts that are pure, the second time: and they shall be clean.

Si cessa, lava aqua illa, que purissimo es, secundo, et mundo es.

Ista est lex lepræ vestimenti lanei et linei, staminis, atque subtegminis, omnisque supellectilis pelliceæ, quomodo mundari debeat, vel contaminari.

This is the law touching the leprosy of any woollen or linen garment, either in the warp or woof, or any thing of skins: how it ought to be cleaned, or pronounced unclean.

Isto es lege de lepra de vestimento de laneo et de linio, de stamine, et de subtegmina, et omni supellectili de pellicea, quomodo munda debe, vel contamina.
