11 ¶ Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
2 -Men sa pou nou di moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
3 Nan tout bèt ki sou latè, men bèt nou ka touye pou nou manje. Nou ka manje tout bèt ki gen zago yo fann an de depi yo remoute manje tou.
4 Men, gen bèt ki remoute manje epi ki pa gen zago yo fann. Bèt konsa nou pa gen dwa manje yo. Sa pa bon pou nou! Nou gen chamo ki remoute manje men ki pa gen zago yo fann. Vyann li pa bon pou nou manje.
5 Nou gen daman ki remoute manje men ki pa gen zago yo fann.
6 Nou gen ankò lapen ki remoute manje men ki pa gen zago fann an de. Vyann li pa bon pou nou manje.
7 Nou gen ankò kochon. Li menm li gen zago fann an de, men li pa remoute manje. Vyann li tou pa bon pou nou manje.
8 Piga nou janm manje vyann bèt sa yo. Piga nou manyen kadav yo. Yo pa bon pou nou menm k'ap sèvi Bondye.
9 ¶ Nan bèt k'ap viv nan dlo men sa nou ka manje. Nou ka manje tout bèt nan lanmè ak nan dlo dous ki gen zèl ak kal sou kò yo.
10 Men, tout bèt k'ap viv nan lanmè osinon nan dlo dous men ki pa gen ni zèl ni kal sou kò yo, sa pa bon pou manje yo.
11 Gade yo pou move vyann. Pa manje vyann yo, pa manyen kadav yo.
12 Tout bèt k'ap viv nan dlo men ki pa gen zèl ak kal sou kò yo, nou pa fèt pou nou manje yo.
13 Nan tout zwazo men sa nou pa gen dwa manje paske yo pa bon pou nou menm k'ap sèvi Bondye.
14 Malfini karanklou ak lòt bèt menm fanmi ak yo ki manje kadav,
15 tout kalite kònèy,
16 otrich, janmichèt, poul dlo, grigri, ak lòt bèt menm fanmi ak yo ki manje vyann vivan,
17 koukou, plonjon, frize,
18 gwo kanna mawon blan, grangozye, chwèt,
19 sigòy, krabye ak tout lòt bèt menm fanmi ak yo, chòchòt, sèpantye.
20 ¶ Tout ti bètazèl ki mache sou kat pye pa bon pou nou manje.
21 Men, nou ka manje tout ti bètazèl ki mache sou kat pye, depi yo gen de gwo pye ki penmèt yo sote,
22 tankou krikèt kay, krikèt bwa, chwal bondye ak lòt kalite krikèt.
23 Men, tout lòt ti bètazèl ki gen kat pye pa bon pou nou manje.
24 Depi yon moun manyen kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo, li pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
25 Tout moun ki pote menm yon moso nan kadav yo gen pou lave tout rad sou li, epi li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
26 Tout bèt ki pa gen zago yo fann an de osinon ki pa remoute manje pa bon pou nou manje. Tout moun ki manyen ata kadav bèt sa yo pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye.
27 Konsa tou, tout bèt ki mache sou kat pa t' men ki pa gen zago, yo pa bon pou nou manje. Depi yon moun manyen kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo, li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
28 Tout moun ki pote kadav bèt yo al jete gen pou lave tout rad sou li, epi li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè. Wi, tout bèt sa yo pa bon pou nou manje.
29 Pami tout bèt toupatou sou latè ki mache sou vant, men sa ki pa bon pou nou manje: tout kalite zagoudi, sourit ak leza,
30 zandolit, soud, mabouya, gongolo, aganman.
31 Wi, tout bèt sa yo pa bon pou nou manje. Si yon moun annik manyen kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo, l'a nan kondisyon pou l' pa fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
32 Si kadav bèt sa yo tonbe sou nenpòt ki bagay, kit an bwa, kit an twal, kit an po, kit an twal sak, osinon sou nenpòt ki zouti nou sèvi pou nou travay, bagay sa a osinon zouti sa a pa bon pou nou sèvi. Se pou nou mete l' tranpe nan dlo, li p'ap bon pou nou sèvi avè l' jouk aswè rive. Apre sa, nou ka sèvi avè l' san danje.
33 Si kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo tonbe nan yon veso fèt an tè, tou sa ki nan veso a pa bon pou nou sèvi ankò, epitou se pou nou kraze veso sa a.
34 Si ti gout nan dlo ki soti nan veso sa a ta rive tonbe sou nenpòt manje nou gen dwa manje, manje a pa bon ankò pou nou manje. Konsa tou, tout bwason nou gen dwa bwè, si yo ta rive vide l' nan yon veso konsa, li pa bon ankò pou nou bwè.
35 Si kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo tonbe sou nenpòt bagay, bagay sa a pa bon pou sèvi ankò. Si se yon fou osinon yon recho, se pou yo kraze yo an miyèt moso. Yo pa bon, nou pa fèt pou sèvi ak yo ankò menm.
36 Men, si yo tonbe nan yon sous osinon nan yon sitèn pou ranmase dlo, sous la osinon sitèn lan ap toujou bon pou sèvis nou. Men, moun ki manyen kadav la pou wete l' nan dlo a p'ap nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
37 Si kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo tonbe sou grenn nou pral plante, grenn yo bon toujou pou plante.
38 Men, si grenn lan te tranpe nan dlo epi kadav yonn nan bèt sa yo tonbe sou li, grenn lan pa bon ankò pou plante.
39 Lè yon bèt nou ka manje rete konsa li mouri, tout moun ki manyen kadav li p'ap kapab fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
40 Moun ki manje nenpòt moso nan vyann bèt mouri a gen pou l' lave rad sou li epi li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye jouk aswè. Moun ki pote kadav la al jete gen pou l' lave rad sou li, epi li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye jouk aswè.
41 Tout ti bèt k'ap trennen sou vant pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye. Nou pa fèt pou manje yo.
42 Depi se ti bèt k'ap trennen sou vant ou ankò ti bèt kat pye, ou ankò ti bèt ki gen anpil pye, yo yonn pa bon menm pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye: nou pa fèt pou nou manje yo.
43 ¶ Pa manje ankenn nan ti bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo pou yo pa mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou pa kapab fè sèvis pou mwen.
44 Se mwen menm Seyè a ki Bondye nou. Se pou nou kenbe kò nou yon jan pou nou viv apa pou mwen, paske mwen menm se yon Bondye apa mwen ye. Pa kite ankenn ti bèt k'ap trennen sou vant mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou pa ka sèvi m'.
45 Se mwen menm, Seyè a, se mwen menm ki te mennen nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou m' te ka Bondye nou. Wi, se pou nou viv apa pou mwen, paske mwen se yon Bondye apa.
46 Men regleman ki gen rapò ak bèt, zwazo ak tout lòt bèt k'ap viv nan dlo, osinon k'ap trennen sou vant.
47 Se pou nou toujou rekonèt bèt ki ka mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou pa ka sèvi Bondye ak bèt ki p'ap fè l', bèt ki bon pou nou manje ak bèt ki pa bon pou nou manje.
12 ¶ Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 -Men sa pou ou di pep Izrayèl la pou mwen. Lè yon fanm vin ansent, epi li fè yon pitit gason, li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou mwen pandan sèt jou apre jou akouchman an, menm jan li pa ka fè sèvis pou mwen lè li gen règ li.
3 Sou wityèm jou a, y'a sikonsi pitit la.
4 Men, madanm lan va rete ankò tranntwa jou. Se apre sa l'a fè sèvis pou san li pèdi a. Li p'ap gen dwa manyen ankenn bagay yo mete apa pou Bondye, ni li p'ap gen dwa antre nan tant ki apa pou Bondye a, toutotan li poko fè sèvis pou mete l' ankò nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye a.
5 Si se yon tifi li fè, li p'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou mwen pandan de senmenn apre akouchman an, menm jan li pa ka fè sèvis pou mwen lè li gen règ li. Apre sa se pou l' pase swasannsis jou anvan li fè sèvis pou san li pèdi a.
6 ¶ Lè li fin pase kantite jou pou l' pase a, kit se pou yon pitit gason, kit se pou yon pitit fi, fanm lan va pran yon ti mouton ki poko gen ennan ak yon jenn ti pijon osinon yon toutrèl, l'a pote yo bay prèt la devan pòt Tant Randevou a. Ti mouton an va sèvi ofrann yo boule nèt pou Bondye a. Ti pijon an osinon ti toutrèl la va sèvi ofrann pou mande Bondye padon pou sa l' te fè ki mal.
7 Prèt la va ofri yo bay Seyè a pou mande padon pou fanm lan. Se konsa fanm lan va fè sèvis pou san li pèdi a. Wi, se sa pou yon fanm fè apre li fin akouche, kit se yon gason, kit se yon fi li fè.
8 Si fanm lan pa gen mwayen pou l' pote yon ti mouton, lè sa a l'a pote de pijon osinon de toutrèl, yonn pou yo boule nèt pou Bondye, lòt la pou yo ofri pou mande padon. Prèt la va ofri yo bay Seyè a pou l' mande padon pou li. Se konsa fanm lan va fè sèvis pou l' ka nan kondisyon sèvi Bondye ankò.
13 ¶ Seyè a pale ak Moyiz ansanm ak Arawon, li di yo konsa:
2 -Si yon moun wè yon kote sou po kò l' anfle, ou ankò si li wè yon bouton osinon yon tach parèt sou po l' ki ta vle sanble konmansman yon move maladi po ki ka kontaminen lòt moun, y'a mennen l' bay Arawon, prèt la, ou ankò bay yonn nan pitit li yo ki prèt tou.
3 Prèt la va egzaminen kote ki malad la. Si pwal yo vin tou blan, epi si maladi a fouye po a ti kras, l'a konnen se yon move maladi po ki ka kontaminen lòt moun. Lè prèt la va wè sa, l'a fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye.
4 Men, si kote po a anfle a vin tou blan san li pa fouye, si pwal yo pa vin blan, prèt la va fèmen moun lan yon kote pou kont li pandan sèt jou.
5 Sou setyèm jou a, prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè bouton an rete menm jan an, li pa laji sou po a, prèt la va fèmen moun lan pou kont li pou sèt jou ankò.
6 Apre sa, prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si bouton an cheche, si li pa laji kò l' sou po a, prèt la va fè konnen moun lan nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon bouton ase li te genyen. Lè sa a, moun lan va lave rad li, epi l'ap nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis pou Bondye.
7 Men si bouton an vin pi laj sou po a, apre prèt la te fin di moun lan bon lè li te wè l' la, se pou moun lan parèt devan prèt la ankò.
8 Prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè bouton an vin pi laj sou po a, prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon move maladi po li genyen!
9 Lè yon moun va gen yon move maladi po sou li, y'a mennen l' bay prèt la.
10 Prèt la va egzaminen l'. Si li wè yon bouton blan sou po a ki fè pwal yo vin blan tou, si bouton an plen postim,
11 se va yon move maladi po ki chita sou li. Prèt la va fè konnen nonm lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye. Li p'ap bezwen fèmen l' yon kote pou kont li, paske se bagay ki klè, nonm lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou Bondye.
12 Men, si maladi a gaye sou tout kò l', si li kouvri ak bouton depi nan tèt jouk nan pye, kifè kote prèt la voye je l' li wè se bouton,
13 prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si maladi a kouvri tout kò l', prèt la va di moun lan toujou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Depi tout kò l' vin tou blan, li nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
14 Men, jou yon bouton pete, li p'ap nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
15 Prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè yon bouton pete, l'a fè konnen nonm lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Depi bouton an pete se yon move maladi po li genyen, nonm lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
16 Men, lè bouton an va konmanse geri, po a konmanse vin blan ankò, moun lan va tounen al jwenn prèt la.
17 Prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè bouton an vin tou blan, prèt la va fè konnen nonm lan nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
18 ¶ Si yon moun gen yon apse ki geri,
19 men kote apse a te ye a vin anfle, ou ankò yon ti bouton wouj anba po a vin parèt, se pou l' al wè prèt la.
20 Prèt la va egzaminen l'. Si bouton an gen lè yon ti jan pi fon pase rès po a, epi si pwal ki ladan l' yo vin tou blan, prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon move maladi po k'ap parèt sou mak apse a.
21 Men, lè prèt la egzaminen l', si li wè pwal ki ladan l' yo pa blan, si bouton an pa pi fon pase rès po a, si li konmanse chanje koulè, prèt la va fèmen moun lan yon kote pou kont li pou sèt jou.
22 Si bouton an gaye sou tout kò l', prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon move maladi po li genyen.
23 Men, si bouton an rete jan l' te ye a, y'a konnen se mak apse a ase li ye. Prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa gen anyen, li toujou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
24 Ou ankò, lè yon moun boule nan dife, si lè li konmanse geri, po a vin yon ti jan wouj e blan,
25 prèt la va egzaminen l'. Si li wè pwal yo vin blan, epi si tach la gen lè pi fon pase rès po a, y'a konnen se yon move maladi po k'ap devlope sou boule a. Prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon move maladi po li genyen.
26 Men, si lè prèt la egzaminen l' li pa jwenn pwal blan ladan l', epi tach la pa pi fon pase rès po a, men li ta vle chanje koulè, prèt la va fèmen l' yon kote pou kont li pou sèt jou.
27 Sou setyèm jou a, prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè tach la ap gaye, l'a konnen se yon move maladi po li genyen. Lè sa a, prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye.
28 Men, si tach la rete jan l' te ye a, si li pa gaye sou po a, si se koulè a ase ki chanje, l'a konnen se mak boule a ase li ye. Prèt la va fè konnen moun lan toujou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye, paske se boule a k'ap geri.
29 Lè yon gason osinon yon fanm gen yon kote nan cheve l' osinon nan bab li ki fè yon plak,
30 prèt la va egzaminen plak la. Si li gen lè pi fon pase rès po a, si li gen cheve yon ti jan jòn, fin fen ladan l', l'a konnen se pyas moun lan genyen. Se yon move maladi po ki parèt nan cheve l' osinon nan bab li. Prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
31 Men, lè prèt la egzaminen plak pyas la, si li wè gen lè li pa pi fon pase rès po a, epi cheve ki ladan l' yo yon ti jan jòn, prèt la va fèmen moun lan yon kote pou kont li pou sèt jou.
32 Sou setyèm jou a, prèt la va egzaminen malenng lan ankò. Si pyas la gaye, si cheve ki ladan l' yo pa vin jòn, si li gen lè pa pi fon pase rès po a,
33 moun lan va koupe tout cheve nan tèt li san l' pa manyen pyas la. Apre sa, prèt la va fèmen l' yon kote pou kont li pou sèt jou ankò.
34 Sou setyèm jou a, prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si pyas la pa laji sou po a, si li pa fouye po a, prèt la va fè konnen moun lan nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Moun lan menm va lave rad sou li, epi l'a nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò.
35 Men, si apre prèt la te fin di moun lan nan bon kondisyon an, pyas la gaye tout bon vre sou po a,
36 prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si pyas la gaye vre sou po a, li pa bezwen chache wè si li gen cheve jòn ankò. L'a tou konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
37 Men si li wè pyas la rete jan l' te ye a, epi cheve nwa ap pouse sou li, l'a tou konnen pyas la geri, epi prèt la va fè konnen moun lan nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
38 ¶ Lè yon gason osinon yon fanm gen ti tach blan ki parèt sou po l',
39 prèt la va egzaminen l'. Si tach yo yon ti koulè blan sal, l'a konnen se yon ti gratèl ki parèt sou po a, moun lan toujou nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
40 Lè yon nonm pèdi tout cheve nan tèt li, li chòv. Sa pa vle di li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
41 Konsa tou, lè yon moun pèdi cheve sou tout devan tèt li, li demi chòv. Sa pa vle di li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.
42 Men, si kote l' chòv la yon ti tach koulè wouj-blan parèt, se ka yon move maladi po k'ap leve sou kò l'.
43 Lè sa a, prèt la va egzaminen l'. Si plak la gen yon ti koulè wouj-blan tankou lè moun gen move maladi po sou kò yo,
44 l'a konnen se yon moun ki gen move maladi po. Prèt la va fè konnen moun lan pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye, akòz move maladi po ki parèt sou tèt li a.
45 Lè yon moun gen yon move maladi po, l'a mete vye rad chire sou li. L'a kite tèt li san penyen, l'a kouvri figi l' depi anba nen l' desann, epi kote l' pase la pran rele: Men moun malad! Men moun malad!
46 Pandan tout tan maladi a va sou li, li p'ap nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye. Se yon moun ki gen move maladi po li ye. L'a rete yon kote pou kont li, nan yon kay andeyò limit kote moun rete.
47 ¶ Lè yon rad fèt an lenn nèt osinon an twal fen blan nèt bay mak tankou li ta vle kanni,
48 ou ankò lè nan yon moso twal, fil dwat yo osinon fil travè yo, kit yo fèt an lenn ou ankò an kenaf, bay mak tankou yo ta vle kanni, ou ankò lè yon moso po osinon yon bagay fèt an po bay mak tankou li ta vle kanni,
49 si kote ki vle kanni an gen yon ti koulè vèt osinon wouj, sa vle di se kanni l'ap kanni. Se pou nou pote l' moutre prèt la.
50 Prèt la va pran l', l'a egzaminen l' epi l'a fèmen bagay ki vle kanni an yon kote pou sèt jou.
51 Sou setyèm jou a, prèt la va egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè kanni an gaye sou twal la, osinon li mache nan fil dwat yo osinon nan fil travè yo, oswa sou po a, osinon sou bagay fèt ak po, sa vle di se kanni l'ap kanni vre. Moun k'ap sèvi Bondye pa ka sèvi avè l' ankò.
52 Prèt la va boule bagay ki kanni an, paske se yon move maladi k'ap manje tout rad la. Se pou yo boule l' nan dife.
53 Men, si lè prèt la egzaminen l', li jwenn kanni an pa gaye nan twal la osinon nan po a,
54 prèt la va bay lòd pou yo lave l'. Apre sa, l'a fèmen l' ankò yon kote pou sèt jou.
55 Sou setyèm jou a, l'a egzaminen l' ankò. Si li wè kote ki te vle kanni an rete menm jan an, menm si li pa gaye sou rès twal la, bagay la pa nan bon kondisyon, moun k'ap sèvi Bondye pa ka sèvi avè l'. Se pou yo boule l' nan dife, kanni an te mèt sou lanvè ou sou landrèt li.
56 Men, si lè prèt la ap egzaminen l' dezyèm fwa a, li wè kanni an te pèdi koulè, fwa sa a, l'a chire kote ki te kanni nan twal la osinon nan po a. Ou ankò, l'a wete fil dwat ou fil travè ki te kanni nan twal la.
57 Si apre sa, kanni an parèt ankò epi li konmanse gaye nan rès rad la, mèt rad la va boule l'.
58 Si apre yo lave yon rad, kanni an disparèt, y'a lave l' yon dezyèm fwa. Se lè sa a rad la va nan bon kondisyon, moun k'ap sèvi Bondye ka sèvi avè l'.
59 Men regleman pou nou swiv lè yon rad fèt an lenn osinon an twal fen blan bay mak tankou li ta vle kanni, ou ankò lè nan yon moso twal, fil dwat osinon fil travè yo, kit yo fèt an lenn ou ankò an kenaf, bay mak tankou li ta vle kanni, ou ankò lè yon moso po osinon nenpòt bagay ki fèt an po bay mak tankou li ta vle kanni. Se konsa n'a konnen si moun k'ap sèvi Bondye ka sèvi osinon pa ka sèvi ak yo.
Leviticus 11-13
New International Version
Leviticus 11-13
New International Version
Clean and Unclean Food(A)
11 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat:(B) 3 You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.
4 “‘There are some that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, but you must not eat them.(C) The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you. 5 The hyrax, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. 6 The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. 7 And the pig,(D) though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. 8 You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.(E)
9 “‘Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams you may eat any that have fins and scales. 10 But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales—whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water—you are to regard as unclean.(F) 11 And since you are to regard them as unclean, you must not eat their meat; you must regard their carcasses as unclean.(G) 12 Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be regarded as unclean by you.(H)
13 “‘These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean: the eagle,[a] the vulture, the black vulture, 14 the red kite, any kind(I) of black kite, 15 any kind of raven,(J) 16 the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, 17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, 18 the white owl,(K) the desert owl, the osprey, 19 the stork,(L) any kind(M) of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.(N)
20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are to be regarded as unclean by you.(O) 21 There are, however, some flying insects that walk on all fours that you may eat: those that have jointed legs for hopping on the ground. 22 Of these you may eat any kind of locust,(P) katydid, cricket or grasshopper. 23 But all other flying insects that have four legs you are to regard as unclean.
24 “‘You will make yourselves unclean by these;(Q) whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening.(R) 25 Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash their clothes,(S) and they will be unclean till evening.(T)
26 “‘Every animal that does not have a divided hoof or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them will be unclean. 27 Of all the animals that walk on all fours, those that walk on their paws are unclean for you; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening. 28 Anyone who picks up their carcasses must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(U) These animals are unclean for you.
29 “‘Of the animals that move along the ground, these are unclean for you:(V) the weasel, the rat,(W) any kind of great lizard, 30 the gecko, the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink and the chameleon. 31 Of all those that move along the ground, these are unclean for you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean till evening. 32 When one of them dies and falls on something, that article, whatever its use, will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, hide or sackcloth.(X) Put it in water; it will be unclean till evening, and then it will be clean. 33 If one of them falls into a clay pot, everything in it will be unclean, and you must break the pot.(Y) 34 Any food you are allowed to eat that has come into contact with water from any such pot is unclean, and any liquid that is drunk from such a pot is unclean. 35 Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; an oven or cooking pot must be broken up. They are unclean, and you are to regard them as unclean. 36 A spring, however, or a cistern for collecting water remains clean, but anyone who touches one of these carcasses is unclean. 37 If a carcass falls on any seeds that are to be planted, they remain clean. 38 But if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.
39 “‘If an animal that you are allowed to eat dies,(Z) anyone who touches its carcass(AA) will be unclean till evening. 40 Anyone who eats some of its carcass(AB) must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(AC) Anyone who picks up the carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.
41 “‘Every creature that moves along the ground is to be regarded as unclean; it is not to be eaten. 42 You are not to eat any creature that moves along the ground, whether it moves on its belly or walks on all fours or on many feet; it is unclean. 43 Do not defile yourselves by any of these creatures.(AD) Do not make yourselves unclean by means of them or be made unclean by them. 44 I am the Lord your God;(AE) consecrate yourselves(AF) and be holy,(AG) because I am holy.(AH) Do not make yourselves unclean by any creature that moves along the ground.(AI) 45 I am the Lord, who brought you up out of Egypt(AJ) to be your God;(AK) therefore be holy, because I am holy.(AL)
46 “‘These are the regulations concerning animals, birds, every living thing that moves about in the water and every creature that moves along the ground. 47 You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten.(AM)’”
Purification After Childbirth
12 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘A woman who becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son will be ceremonially unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean during her monthly period.(AN) 3 On the eighth day(AO) the boy is to be circumcised.(AP) 4 Then the woman must wait thirty-three days to be purified from her bleeding. She must not touch anything sacred or go to the sanctuary until the days of her purification are over. 5 If she gives birth to a daughter, for two weeks the woman will be unclean, as during her period. Then she must wait sixty-six days to be purified from her bleeding.
6 “‘When the days of her purification for a son or daughter are over,(AQ) she is to bring to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting a year-old lamb(AR) for a burnt offering and a young pigeon or a dove for a sin offering.[b](AS) 7 He shall offer them before the Lord to make atonement for her, and then she will be ceremonially clean from her flow of blood.
“‘These are the regulations for the woman who gives birth to a boy or a girl. 8 But if she cannot afford a lamb, she is to bring two doves or two young pigeons,(AT) one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering.(AU) In this way the priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.(AV)’”
Regulations About Defiling Skin Diseases
13 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 2 “When anyone has a swelling(AW) or a rash or a shiny spot(AX) on their skin that may be a defiling skin disease,[c](AY) they must be brought to Aaron the priest(AZ) or to one of his sons[d] who is a priest. 3 The priest is to examine the sore on the skin, and if the hair in the sore has turned white and the sore appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling skin disease. When the priest examines that person, he shall pronounce them ceremonially unclean.(BA) 4 If the shiny spot(BB) on the skin is white but does not appear to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.(BC) 5 On the seventh day(BD) the priest is to examine them,(BE) and if he sees that the sore is unchanged and has not spread in the skin, he is to isolate them for another seven days. 6 On the seventh day the priest is to examine them again, and if the sore has faded and has not spread in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them clean;(BF) it is only a rash. They must wash their clothes,(BG) and they will be clean.(BH) 7 But if the rash does spread in their skin after they have shown themselves to the priest to be pronounced clean, they must appear before the priest again.(BI) 8 The priest is to examine that person, and if the rash has spread in the skin, he shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease.
9 “When anyone has a defiling skin disease, they must be brought to the priest. 10 The priest is to examine them, and if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white and if there is raw flesh in the swelling, 11 it is a chronic skin disease(BJ) and the priest shall pronounce them unclean. He is not to isolate them, because they are already unclean.
12 “If the disease breaks out all over their skin and, so far as the priest can see, it covers all the skin of the affected person from head to foot, 13 the priest is to examine them, and if the disease has covered their whole body, he shall pronounce them clean. Since it has all turned white, they are clean. 14 But whenever raw flesh appears on them, they will be unclean. 15 When the priest sees the raw flesh, he shall pronounce them unclean. The raw flesh is unclean; they have a defiling disease.(BK) 16 If the raw flesh changes and turns white, they must go to the priest. 17 The priest is to examine them, and if the sores have turned white, the priest shall pronounce the affected person clean;(BL) then they will be clean.
18 “When someone has a boil(BM) on their skin and it heals, 19 and in the place where the boil was, a white swelling or reddish-white(BN) spot(BO) appears, they must present themselves to the priest. 20 The priest is to examine it, and if it appears to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce that person unclean. It is a defiling skin disease(BP) that has broken out where the boil was. 21 But if, when the priest examines it, there is no white hair in it and it is not more than skin deep and has faded, then the priest is to isolate them for seven days. 22 If it is spreading in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling disease. 23 But if the spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil, and the priest shall pronounce them clean.(BQ)
24 “When someone has a burn on their skin and a reddish-white or white spot appears in the raw flesh of the burn, 25 the priest is to examine the spot, and if the hair in it has turned white, and it appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease.(BR) 26 But if the priest examines it and there is no white hair in the spot and if it is not more than skin deep and has faded, then the priest is to isolate them for seven days.(BS) 27 On the seventh day the priest is to examine that person,(BT) and if it is spreading in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease. 28 If, however, the spot is unchanged and has not spread in the skin but has faded, it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce them clean; it is only a scar from the burn.(BU)
29 “If a man or woman has a sore on their head(BV) or chin, 30 the priest is to examine the sore, and if it appears to be more than skin deep and the hair in it is yellow and thin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease on the head or chin. 31 But if, when the priest examines the sore, it does not seem to be more than skin deep and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.(BW) 32 On the seventh day the priest is to examine the sore,(BX) and if it has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it and it does not appear to be more than skin deep, 33 then the man or woman must shave themselves, except for the affected area, and the priest is to keep them isolated another seven days. 34 On the seventh day the priest is to examine the sore,(BY) and if it has not spread in the skin and appears to be no more than skin deep, the priest shall pronounce them clean. They must wash their clothes, and they will be clean.(BZ) 35 But if the sore does spread in the skin after they are pronounced clean, 36 the priest is to examine them, and if he finds that the sore has spread in the skin, he does not need to look for yellow hair; they are unclean.(CA) 37 If, however, the sore is unchanged so far as the priest can see, and if black hair has grown in it, the affected person is healed. They are clean, and the priest shall pronounce them clean.
38 “When a man or woman has white spots on the skin, 39 the priest is to examine them, and if the spots are dull white, it is a harmless rash that has broken out on the skin; they are clean.
40 “A man who has lost his hair and is bald(CB) is clean. 41 If he has lost his hair from the front of his scalp and has a bald forehead, he is clean. 42 But if he has a reddish-white sore on his bald head or forehead, it is a defiling disease breaking out on his head or forehead. 43 The priest is to examine him, and if the swollen sore on his head or forehead is reddish-white like a defiling skin disease, 44 the man is diseased and is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him unclean because of the sore on his head.
45 “Anyone with such a defiling disease must wear torn clothes,(CC) let their hair be unkempt,[e] cover the lower part of their face(CD) and cry out, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’(CE) 46 As long as they have the disease they remain unclean. They must live alone; they must live outside the camp.(CF)
Regulations About Defiling Molds
47 “As for any fabric that is spoiled with a defiling mold—any woolen or linen clothing, 48 any woven or knitted material of linen or wool, any leather or anything made of leather— 49 if the affected area in the fabric, the leather, the woven or knitted material, or any leather article, is greenish or reddish, it is a defiling mold and must be shown to the priest.(CG) 50 The priest is to examine the affected area(CH) and isolate the article for seven days. 51 On the seventh day he is to examine it,(CI) and if the mold has spread in the fabric, the woven or knitted material, or the leather, whatever its use, it is a persistent defiling mold; the article is unclean.(CJ) 52 He must burn the fabric, the woven or knitted material of wool or linen, or any leather article that has been spoiled; because the defiling mold is persistent, the article must be burned.(CK)
53 “But if, when the priest examines it, the mold has not spread in the fabric, the woven or knitted material, or the leather article, 54 he shall order that the spoiled article be washed. Then he is to isolate it for another seven days. 55 After the article has been washed, the priest is to examine it again, and if the mold has not changed its appearance, even though it has not spread, it is unclean. Burn it, no matter which side of the fabric has been spoiled. 56 If, when the priest examines it, the mold has faded after the article has been washed, he is to tear the spoiled part out of the fabric, the leather, or the woven or knitted material. 57 But if it reappears in the fabric, in the woven or knitted material, or in the leather article, it is a spreading mold; whatever has the mold must be burned. 58 Any fabric, woven or knitted material, or any leather article that has been washed and is rid of the mold, must be washed again. Then it will be clean.”
59 These are the regulations concerning defiling molds in woolen or linen clothing, woven or knitted material, or any leather article, for pronouncing them clean or unclean.

King James Version
11 And the Lord spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 Every raven after his kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.
21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
22 Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
23 But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
25 And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
26 The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.
29 These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean and shall be unclean unto you.
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.
38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 For I am the Lord your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
45 For I am the Lord that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
12 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4 And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
5 But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
6 And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:
7 Who shall offer it before the Lord, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.
8 And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
13 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 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 unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
3 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 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 hath the plague seven days:
5 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 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 But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again.
8 And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy.
9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest;
10 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 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 And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of him that hath the plague from his head even to his foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;
13 Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean that hath the plague: it is all turned white: he is clean.
14 But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
15 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 Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto white, he shall come unto the priest;
17 And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce him clean that hath the plague: he is clean.
18 The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof, was a boil, and is healed,
19 And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be shewed to the priest;
20 And if, when the priest seeth 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 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 And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
23 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 Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burneth have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;
25 Then the priest shall look upon 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: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
26 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 And the priest shall look upon 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 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 If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard;
30 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 scall, even a leprosy upon the head or beard.
31 And if the priest look on the plague of the scall, 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 hath the plague of the scall seven days:
32 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and, behold, if the scall spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall be not in sight deeper than the skin;
33 He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut up him that hath the scall seven days more:
34 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and, behold, if the scall 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 But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleansing;
36 Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he is unclean.
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and that there is black hair grown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots;
39 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 groweth in the skin; he is clean.
40 And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is he clean.
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he clean.
42 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 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if the rising of the sore be white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
44 He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
46 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 The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it be a woollen garment, or a linen garment;
48 Whether it be in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of woollen; whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
49 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 shewed unto the priest:
50 And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut up it that hath the plague seven days:
51 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 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woollen 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 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 Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more:
55 And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not changed his colour, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bare within or without.
56 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 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: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague is with fire.
58 And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of skin it be, which thou shalt wash, if the plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean.
59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
