1 و َقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى:

The Lord said to Moses,

2 « هَذِهِ شَرِيعَةُ الأبرَصِ حِينَ يُطَهَّرُ. «يَنبَغِي أنْ يُحضَرَ الشَّخصُ إلَى الكاهِنِ.

“This is the law of the person with a bad skin disease when he is made clean. He will be brought to the religious leader.

3 ف َيَخْرُجُ الكاهِنُ خارِجَ المُخَيَّمِ إلَى الشَّخصِ المُصابِ، فَإنْ عايَنَهُ الكاهِنُ وَرَآهُ قَدْ شُفِيَ مِنْ بَرَصِهِ،

The religious leader will go away from the tents and look at him. If the sick person has been healed of the bad skin disease,

4 ي َأمُرُ بِإحضارِ عُصفُورَينِ حَيَّينِ طاهرَينِ وَقِطعَةَ خَشَبِ أرزٍ وَخَيطاً أحمَرَ وَغُصْناً مِنْ نَباتِ الزُّوفا لِأجلِ الَّذِي تَطَهَّرَ.

the religious leader must have two live clean birds, cedar wood, a red string and hyssop brought for the one who is to be made clean.

5 و َيَأمُرُ الكاهِنُ بِذَبحِ أحَدِ العُصْفُورَينِ وَوَضعِ دَمِهِ فِي طَبَقٍ مِنْ فُخّارٍ فَوقَ ماءٍ جارٍ.

The religious leader will have one of the birds killed in a clay pot over flowing water.

6 ث ُمَّ يَأخُذُ العُصفُورَ الحَيَّ وَقِطعَةَ خَشَبِ الأرْزِ وَالخَيطَ الأحمَرَ وَالزُّوفا، وَيَغمِسُها جَمِيعاً مَعَ العُصفُورِ الحَيِّ فِي دَمِ العُصفُورِ الَّذِي ذُبِحَ فَوقَ ماءٍ جارٍ.

Then he will take the living bird with the cedar wood, the red string and the hyssop. He will put them and the live bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the flowing water.

7 ث ُمَّ يَرُشُّ الدَّمَ سَبعَ مَرّاتٍ عَلَى الشَّخصِ الَّذِي تَطَهَّرَ مِنَ البَرَصِ. بَعدَ ذَلِكَ، يُعلِنُ الشَّخصَ طاهِراً. وَيُطلِقُ الكاهِنُ العُصفُورَ الحَيَّ فِي سَهلٍ مَفتُوحٍ.

He will put blood seven times on the one who is to be made clean from the bad skin disease. And he will say he is clean. Then he will let the live bird go free over the open field.

8 « وَعَلَى مَنْ تَطَهَّرَ أنْ يَغسِلَ ثِيابَهُ وَيَحلِقَ شَعرَهُ وَيَستَحِمَّ فِي ماءٍ، فَيَصِيرَ طاهِراً. ثُمَّ يَدخُلُ المُخَيَّمَ، لَكِنَّهُ يَبقَى خارِجَ خَيمَتِهِ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

The one to be made clean will wash his clothes, cut off all his hair, wash himself in water, and be clean. After that he may go among the tents. But he must stay outside his tent for seven days.

9 و َفِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ، يَحلِقُ كُلَّ شَعرِ رَأسِهِ وَذَقنِهِ وَحَواجِبِهِ. يَنبَغِي أنْ يَحلِقَ كُلَّ شَعرِهِ، وَأنْ يَغسِلَ ثِيابَهُ وَجَسَدَهُ فِي الماءِ، حِينَئِذٍ، يَكُونُ طاهِراً تَماماً.

On the seventh day he will cut off his hair. He will cut the hair from his head and face, all his hair. Then he will wash his clothes and wash himself in water, and be clean.

10 « وَفِي اليَومِ الثّامِنِ، يَأخُذُ حَمَلَينِ ذَكَرَينِ لا عَيبَ فِيهِما، وَنَعْجَةً واحِدَةً عُمْرُها سَنَةٌ لا عَيبَ فِيها، وَثَلاثَةَ أعْشارِ القُفَّةِ مِنَ الطَّحِينِ الجَيِّدِ مَمزُوجاً بِزَيتٍ، وَكُوباً وَاحِداً مِنْ زَيتِ الزَّيتُونِ.

“On the eighth day he is to take two male lambs that are perfect, a year old female lamb that is perfect, three-tenths part of a basket of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain gift, and one jar of oil.

11 و َعَلَى الكاهِنِ الَّذِي يَقُوُمُ بالتَّطهِيرِ أنْ يُعِدَّ ذَلِكَ الإنسانَ لِيَتَطَهَّرَ، وَأنْ يُحْضِرَ هَذِهِ التَّقدِماتِ إلَى مَحْضَرِ اللهِ عِندَ مَدخَلِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ.

The religious leader who makes him clean will set the man who is to be made clean and these things before the Lord at the door of the meeting tent.

12 ث ُمَّ يَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ حَمَلاً ذَكَراً وَيُقَدِّمُهُ ذَبِيحَةَ ذَنبٍ مَعَ كُوبٍ مِنَ الزَّيتِ، وَيرفَعُهُا تَقدِمَةً فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

Then the religious leader will take the one male lamb and bring it for a guilt gift with the jar of oil. He will give them as a wave gift before the Lord.

13 و َيَذبَحُ الحَمَلَ فِي مِنْطَقَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ حَيثُ تُذبَحُ تَقدِمَةُ الذَّبيحَةِ الصّاعِدَةِ. وَلِأنَّ ذَبِيحَةَ الذَّنبِ هِيَ مِثلُ ذَبِيحَةِ الخَطِيَّةِ، فَإنَّها تَكُونُ مِنْ نَصِيبِ الكاهِنِ. إنَّها نَصِيبٌ مُخَصَّصٌ لِلكَهَنَةِ بِالكامِلِ.

He will kill the lamb in the holy place where they kill the sin gifts and the burnt gifts. For the guilt gift belongs to the religious leader like the sin gift. It is most holy.

14 « وَيَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ بَعضَ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ، وَيَضَعَهُ عَلَى شَحمَةِ الأُذُنِ اليُمنَى لِلمُتَطَهِّرِ، وَعَلَى إبهامِ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى، وَعَلَى إبهامِ رِجلِهِ اليُمنَى.

Then the religious leader will take some of the blood of the guilt gift. He will put it on the bottom part of the right ear of the person to be made clean. And he will put it on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.

15 ث ُمَّ يَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ مِنْ كُوبِ الزَّيتِ، وَيَسكُبُ مِنهُ فِي كَفِّهِ الأيْسَرِ.

Then the religious leader will take some of the oil in the jar and pour it into his left hand.

16 ث ُمَّ يَغمِسُ إصبَعاً مِنْ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى فِي الزَّيتِ الَّذِي فِي كَفِّهِ الأيْسَرِ، وَيَرُشَّ بَعضَ الزَّيتِ بِإصبَعِهِ سَبعَ مَرّاتٍ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

The religious leader will put a finger of his right hand into the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord.

17 أ مّا ما تَبَقَّى مِنَ الزَّيتِ فِي كَفِّهِ، فَيَضَعُهُ الكاهِنُ مِنْهُ عَلَى شَحمَةِ الأُذُنِ اليُمنَى لِلشَّخصِ المُتَطَهِّرِ، وَعَلَى إبهامِ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى وَإبهامِ رِجلِهِ اليُمنَى. فَوقَ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ.

Then the religious leader will put some of the rest of the oil upon the blood of the guilt gift on the bottom part of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand and the big toe of the right foot of the person to be made clean.

18 و َما تَبّقَّى فِي كَفِّ الكاهِنِ يَضَعُهُ علَى رَأسِ المُتَطَهِّرِ. وَهَكَذا، يَعمَلُ لَهُ الكاهِنُ كَفّارَةً فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

The rest of the oil in the religious leader’s hand will be put on the head of the person to be made clean. So the religious leader will pay for the person’s sins before the Lord.

19 « ثُمَّ يَذْبَحُ الكاهِنُ ذَبِيحَةَ الخَطِيَّةِ وَيُطَهِّرَ المُتَطَهِّرَ مِنْ نَجاسَتِهِ. ثُمَّ يَذبَحُ ذَبيحَةً صاعِدَةً.

The religious leader will then give the sin gift to pay for the sins of the person to be made clean. After that he will kill the burnt gift.

20 ي ُقَدِّمُ الكاهِنُ الذَّبيحَةَ الصّاعِدَةَ وَتَقدِمَةَ الطَّحِينِ عَلَى المَذبَحِ. وَهَكَذا يَعِدُّ الكاهِنُ كَفّارَةً عَنْ خَطِيَّتِهِ، فَتُغفَرَ لَهُ.

The religious leader will give the burnt gift and the grain gift on the altar. So the religious leader will pay for the person’s sins, and he will be clean.

21 « فَإنْ كانَ المُتَطَهِّرُ فَقِيراً، لا يَستَطِيعُ تَقدِيمَ تِلكَ الذَّبائِحِ، فَلْيَجلِبْ حَمَلاً ذَبِيحَةَ ذَنبٍ تُرفَعُ فِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ كَفّارَةً لِخَطاياهُ. كَما يُقَدِّمُ عُشَرَ قُفَّةٍ مِنَ الطَّحِينِ الجَيِّدِ مَمزُوجاً بِزَيتٍ، وَكُوباً وَاحِداً مِنْ زَيتِ الزَّيتُونِ،

“But if he is poor and does not have enough money for so much, he will take one male lamb for a guilt gift, a wave gift, to pay for his sins. And he will take one-tenth part of a basket of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain gift, a jar of oil,

22 و َيَمامَتَينِ أوْ حَمامَتَينِ صَغِيرَتَينِ بِحَسَبِ قُدْرَتِهِ. فَتَكُونُ إحداهُما لِذَبِيحَةِ الخَطِيَّةِ، وَالثّانِيَةُ لِتَقدِمَةِ الذَّبيحَةِ الصّاعِدَةِ.

and two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, whatever he is able to buy. One will be a sin gift and the other a burnt gift.

23 « يُحضِرُ المُتَطَهِّرُ هَذِهِ التَّقدِماتِ فِي اليَومِ الثّامِنِ مِنْ يَومِ تَطهِيرِهِ، إلَى الكاهِنِ عِندَ مَدخَلِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

On the eighth day he will bring them to the religious leader at the door of the meeting tent before the Lord so he can be made clean.

24 ف َيَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ الحَمَلَ لِذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ وَكُوباً واحِداً مِنْ زَيتِ الزَّيتُونِ، وَيَرفَعُهما تَقدِمَةً فِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ.

The religious leader will take the lamb of the guilt gift and the jar of oil. And the religious leader will wave them as the wave gift before the Lord.

25 ث ُمَّ يُذبَحُ حَمَلُ ذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ، وَيَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ بَعضَ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ وَيَضَعُهُ عَلَى شَحْمَةِ الأُذُنِ اليُمنَى لِلشَّخصِ المُتَطَهِّرِ، وَعَلَى إبهامِ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى وَعَلَى إبهامِ رِجلِهِ اليُمنَى.

Then he will kill the lamb of the guilt gift. The religious leader will take some of the blood of the guilt gift and put it on the bottom part of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand and the big toe of the right foot of the person to be made clean.

26 و َيَسكُبُ الكاهِنُ بَعضَ الزَّيتِ فِي كَفِّهِ الأيَسَرِ.

The religious leader will pour some of the oil into his left hand.

27 ث ُمَّ يَرُشُّ الكاهِنُ بِإصبَعٍ مِنْ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى بَعضَ الزَّيتِ الَّذِي فِي كَفِّهِ الأيسَرِ سَبعَ مَرّاتٍ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

The religious leader will put a finger of his right hand into the oil that is in the left hand seven times before the Lord.

28 ث ُمَّ يَضَعُ الكاهِنُ بَعضَ الزَّيتِ الَّذِي فِي كَفِّهِ عَلَى شَحمَةِ الأُذُنِ اليُمنَى لِلمُتَطَهِّرِ، وَعَلَى إبهامِ يَدِهِ اليُمنَى وَعَلَى إبهامِ رِجلِهِ اليُمنَى، عَلَى الأماكِنِ الَّتِي وُضِعَ عَلَيها مِنْ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةِ الذَّنبِ.

Then the religious leader will put some of the oil in his hand on the bottom part of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand and the big toe of the right foot of the person to be made clean. It will be put on the place where he has put the blood of the guilt gift.

29 و َبَقِيَّةُ الزَّيتِ الَّذِي فِي كَفَّةِ الكاهِنِ، يَسْكُبُها عَلَى رَأسِ المُتَطَهِّرِ لِعَمَلِ كَفّارَةٍ لَهُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

The rest of the oil in the religious leader’s hand will be put on the head of the person to be made clean, to pay for his sins before the Lord.

30 « ثُمَّ يُقَدِّمُ الكاهِنُ إحْدَى اليَمامَتَينِ أوْ إحْدَى الحَمامَتَينِ الصَّغِيرَتَينِ، بِحَسَبِ قُدْرَةِ المُتَطَهِّرِ.

Then he will give one of the turtle-doves or young pigeons that he was able to buy.

31 ف َتَكُونُ إحداهُما لِذَبِيحَةِ الخَطِيَّةِ وَالأُخرَى لِلذَّبيحَةِ الصّاعِدَةِ، مَعَ تَقدِمَةِ الطَّحِينِ. وَهَكَذا يَعمَلُ الكاهِنُ لِلشَّخصِ المُتَطَهِّرِ كَفّارَةً فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ ، فَيَصيرُ طاهِراً.»

He will give what he is able to give, one for a sin gift and the other for a burnt gift, together with the grain gift. So the religious leader will pay for the sins of the person to be made clean before the Lord.

32 ه َذِهِ هِيَ شَرِيعَةُ المُصابِ بِالبَرَصِ. وَلا يَستَطِيعُ تَقدِيمَ الذَّبائِحِ وَالتَّقدِماتِ المُعْتادَةِ لِتَطهِيرِهِ. عَفَنُ البُيُوت

This is the law for him who had a bad skin disease and is not able to buy what is needed for making him clean.” Laws about the House Where the Person with a Bad Skin Disease Lived

33 و َقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى وَهارُونَ:

The Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

34 « حِينَ تَدخُلُونَ أرْضَ كَنعانَ الَّتِي سَأُعطِيها لَكُمْ مُلكاً، وَأرسَلْتُ عَفَناً عَلَى بَيتٍ فِي أرْضِكُمْ،

“When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for your own, and I put a mark of a bad skin disease on a house in your land,

35 ف َعَلَى صاحِبِ البَيتِ أنْ يَأتِيَ وَيُخبِرَ الكاهِنَ فَيَقُولُ: ‹رَأيتُ شَيئاً يُشبِهُ العَفَنَ فِي بَيتِي.›

then the one who owns the house will come and tell the religious leader, ‘I see something like a mark of a bad skin disease in my house.’

36 ف َيَأمُرُ الكاهِنُ بِإخراجِ كُلِّ شَيءٍ مِنَ البَيتِ قَبلَ أنْ يَأتِيَ الكاهِنُ لِيَفحَصَ العَفَنَ. فَإنْ عَمِلُوا هَذا فَإنَّ الأشياءَ الَّتِي فِي البَيتِ لَنْ تُصبِحَ نَجِسَةً. ثُمَّ يَأتِي الكاهِنُ لِيَرَى البَيتَ.

Then the religious leader will tell them to empty the house before he goes in to look at the mark, so he will not say that everything in the house is unclean. After this the religious leader will go in to look at the house.

37 ث ُمَّ يُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ البَيتَ. وَيَفحَصُ الكاهِنُ العَفَنَ، فَإنْ كانَ العَفَنُ الَّذِي عَلَى جُدرانِ البَيتِ يَتَكَوَّنُ مِنْ بُقَعٍ حَمراءَ أوْ خَضراءَ غائِرَةٍ فِي سَطحِ الجِدارِ.

He will look at the mark of the disease. If the mark is in the walls of the house with green or red spots deep in the walls,

38 ف َيَخْرُجُ الكاهِنُ مِنَ البَيتِ إلَى مَدخَلِهِ، وَيُغلِقُ البَيتَ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

the religious leader will go out the door and shut up the house for seven days.

39 « وَيَعُودُ الكاهِنُ فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ وَيُعايِنُ البَيتَ، فَإنِ انتَشَرَ العَفَنُ الَّذِي عَلَى جُدرانِ البَيتِ،

He will come again on the seventh day and look. If the disease has spread in the walls of the house,

40 ي َأمُرُ بِنَزعِ الحِجارَةِ الَّتِي عَلَيْها العَفَنُ وَإلقائِها خارِجَ المَدِينَةِ فِي مَكانٍ نَجِسٍ.

the religious leader will tell them to tear out the stones with the disease in them and throw them away outside the city at an unclean place.

41 ث ُمَّ يَأمُرُ الكاهِنُ بِقَشرِ كُلِّ الطِّينَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ لِلبَيتِ، وَيُلْقَى التَّرابُ الَّذِي قَشَّرُوهُ إلَى خارِجِ المَدِينَةِ فِي مَكانٍ نَجِسٍ.

He will have the walls and floors of the house cleaned inside. And they will take the pieces that are rubbed off to an unclean place outside the city.

42 ث ُمَّ تُوضَعُ حِجارَةٌ أُخْرَى مَكانَ الحِجارَةِ الَّتِي أُزِيلَتْ، وَيُطَيَّنُ البَيتُ بِطِينَةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ.

Then they will take other stones to put in the place of those stones. And he will cover the walls with a new covering.

43 « فَإنْ عادَ العَفَنُ وَانتَشَرَ فِي البَيتِ بَعدَ أنْ أُزِيلَتِ الحِجارَةُ وَتَمَّ تَقشِيرُ البَيتِ وَتَطيِينُهُ مِنْ جَدِيدٍ،

“If the disease comes again in the house, after he has taken out the stones, cleaned the house inside and covered the walls again,

44 ف َحِينَئِذٍ، يَأتي الكاهِنُ وَيُعايِنُهُ. فِإنْ كانَ العَفَنُ قَدِ انتَشَرَ فِي البَيتِ، فَهُوَ عَفَنٌ مُفسِدٌ وَمُتلِفٌ لِلبَيتِ وَما فِيهِ. إنَّهُ بَيتٌ نَجِسٌ.

then the religious leader will come and look. If the disease has spread in the house, it is a very bad disease in the house. It is unclean.

45 ي َنبَغِي هَدمُ البَيتِ، حِجارَتِهِ وَخَشَبِهِ وَكُلِّ طِينَتِهِ، وَإحضارِها إلَى خارِجِ المَدِينَةِ، إلَى مَكانٍ نَجِسٍ.

He will tear down the house, its stones, wood, and all the covering of the house. And he will take the pieces outside the city to an unclean place.

46 ك ُلُّ شَخصٍ يَدخُلُ البَيتَ خِلالَ فَترَةِ إغلاقِهِ يَكُونُ نَجِساً إلَى المَساءِ،

Anyone who goes into the house during the time it is shut up will be unclean until evening.

47 و َكُلُّ شَخصٍ يَنامُ فِي البَيتِ يَنبَغِي أنْ يَغسِلَ ثِيابَهُ. وَكُلُّ شَخصٍ يَأكُلُ فِي البَيتِ يَنبَغِي أنْ يَغسِلَ ثِيابَهُ.

Whoever lies down in the house will wash his clothes. And whoever eats in the house will wash his clothes.

48 « لَكِنْ إنْ أتَى الكاهِنُ وَرَأى البَيتَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ العَفَنُ قَدِ انتَشَرَ فِي البَيتِ بَعدَ أنْ تَمَّ تَطيِينُ البَيتِ ثانِيَةً، فَإنَّ الكاهِنَ يُعلِنُ البَيتَ طاهِراً لِأنَّ العَفَنَ قَدْ زالَ.

“But the religious leader may come in and find that the disease has not spread in the house after its walls have been covered again. Then the religious leader will say the house is clean, because the mark of the disease cannot be seen.

49 و َلِتَطهِيرِ البَيتِ، يَأخُذُ الكاهِنُ عُصفُورَينِ وَقِطعَةَ خَشَبِ أرزٍ وَخَيطاً أحمَرَ وَغُصْناً مِنْ نَباتِ الزُّوفا.

He will take two birds, cedar wood, a red string and hyssop to make the house clean.

50 ث ُمَّ يَذبَحُ أحَدَ العُصفُورَينِ فِي طَبَقٍ مِنْ خَزَفٍ فَوقَ ماءٍ جارٍ.

He will kill one of the birds in a clay pot over flowing water.

51 و َيَأخُذُ قِطعَةَ خَشَبِ الأرْزِ وَغُصْنَ الزُّوفا وَالخَيطَ الأحمَرَ وَالطَّيرَ الحَيَّ، وَيَغمِسُها جَمِيعَها فِي دَمِ العُصفُورِ الَّذِي ذُبِحَ فِي الماءِ الجارِي، ثُمَّ يَرُشُّ البَيتَ سَبعَ مَرّاتٍ.

Then he will take the cedar wood and the hyssop and the red string, with the live bird, and put them in the blood of the killed bird and in the flowing water. And he will put some of the blood and water on the house seven times.

52 و َهَكَذا يَطهُرُ البَيتُ بِدَمِ العُصفُورِ وَبِالماءِ الجارِي وَبِالعُصفُورِ الحَيِّ وَقِطْعَةِ خَشَبِ الأرْزِ وَغُصْنِ الزُّوفا وَالخَيطِ الأحمَرِ.

He will make the house clean with the blood of the bird, the flowing water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop and the red string.

53 ث ُمَّ يُطلِقُ الكاهِنُ العُصفُورَ الحَيَّ خارِجَ المَدِينَةِ فِي سَهلٍ مَفتُوحٍ، وَيُكَفِّرُ عَنِ البَيتِ فَيَصِيرُ طاهِراً.»

He will let the live bird go free outside the city into the open field. So he will take away sin from the house, and it will be clean.”

54 ه َذِهِ هِيَ شَرِيعَةُ كُلِّ بَرَصٍ وَالتِهابٍ جِلدِيٍّ،

This is the law for any very bad skin disease, even a sore,

55 و َعَفَنِ القُماشِ أوِ البَيتِ،

and for a disease in clothing or in a house,

56 و َتَغَيُّرِ لَونِ الجِلدِ وَالجَرَبِ وَالبُقَعِ اللّامِعَةِ.

and for a growing sore, and what is left of a sore, and for a bright spot.

57 ه َذِهِ الشَّرِيعَةُ لِلتَّفرِيقِ بَينَ ما هُوَ نَجِسٌ وَما هُوَ طاهِرٌ. إنَّها شَرِيعَةُ البَرَصِ وَالعَفَنِ.

It is to teach when they are unclean, and when they are clean. This is the law of the very bad skin disease.
