1 T he Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

وَقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى وَهارُونَ:

2 “ When a man has a sore spot on his skin, an open sore or a bright spot, and it becomes a bad skin disease, he should be brought to the religious leader, to Aaron or one of his sons.

«إنْ كانَ لأحَدٍ نُتُوءٌ أوْ جَرَبٌ أوْ بُقَعٌ لامِعَةٌ عَلَى جِلدِهِ قَدْ تَتَحَوَّلُ إلَى بَرَصٍ، يُقَدَّمُ إلَى هارُونَ الكاهِنِ أوْ أحَدِ أبْنائِهِ الكَهَنَةِ.

3 T he religious leader will look at the mark on his skin of the body. If the hair in the spot has become white and the disease looks deeper than his skin, it is a bad skin disease. The religious leader will look at him, and will say that he is unclean.

فَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ الإصابَةَ الَّتِي عَلَى جِلدِهِ، فَإنْ كانَ شَعرُ البُقعَةِ المُصابَةِ قَدْ صارَ أبْيَضَ، وَتَعَمَّقَتِ الإصابَةُ فِي الجِلدِ، فَإنَّها تَكُونُ بَرَصاً. حِينَئِذٍ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ بَعدَ فَحصِهِ أنَّهُ نَجِسٌ.

4 B ut the spot may be white on his skin, and not seem to be deeper than the skin, and the hair on it not white. Then the religious leader will keep the sick man away from other people for seven days.

«لَكِنْ إنْ كانَتِ الإصابَةُ بُقعَةً بَيضاءَ لامِعَةً عَلَى جِلدِ جَسَدِهِ، وَلَمْ تَكُنْ أعمَقَ مِنَ الجِلدِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ الشَّعرُ الَّذِي عَلَيها أبْيَضَ، يَعزِلُ الكاهنُ المُصابَ بَعِيداً عَنِ النّاسِ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

5 T he religious leader will look at him on the seventh day. If he finds that the disease has not changed and has not spread on the skin, the religious leader will keep him away from other people for seven more days.

ثُمَّ يُعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ، فَإنْ رَأى أنَّ الإصابَةَ لَمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ مَنظَرُها، وَأنَّها لَمْ تَنتَشِرْ فِي الجِلدِ، يَعزِلُ الكاهِنُ المُصابَ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ أُخْرَى.

6 T he religious leader will look at him again on the seventh day. If the spot is not as bright and has not spread on the skin, the religious leader will say he is clean. It is only what is left of a sore. He will wash his clothes and be clean.

وَفِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ يُعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ ثانِيَةً، فَإنْ رَأى أنَّ الإصابَةَ قَدِ انطَفَأ لَمَعانُها، وَأنَّها لَمْ تَنتَشِرْ فِي الجِلدِ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ. فَهُوَ مُصابٌ بِاحْمِرارٍ فِي الجِلْدِ. فَليَغسِلْ ثِيابَهُ فَقَطْ وَيَكُونُ طاهِراً.

7 “ But if what is left of the sore spreads farther on the skin, after he has been seen by the religious leader as being clean, he must show himself to the religious leader again.

«أمَّا إنِ انتَشَرَتِ الإصابَةُ فِي الجِلدِ بَعدَ أنْ عَرَضَ المُصابُ نَفسَهُ عَلَى الكاهِنِ لإعلانِ طَهارَتِهِ، فَإنَّه يَعُودُ إلَى الكاهِنِ ثانِيَةً.

8 A nd the religious leader will look, and if the sore has spread on the skin, the religious leader will say that he is unclean. It is a bad skin disease.

فَإنْ نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ وَرَأى أنَّ الإصابَةَ قَدِ انتَشَرَتْ فِي الجِلدِ، يُعلِنُ أنَّهُ نَجِسٌ. إنَّهُ أبرَصُ.

9 “ When a man has a bad skin disease, he will be brought to the religious leader.

«وَحِينَ يُصابُ أحَدُهُمْ بِالبَرَصِ، فَإنَّهُ يُقَدَّمُ إلَى الكاهِنِ.

10 T he religious leader will look at it. If there is a white sore on the skin that has made the hair white, and there are open sores growing on the flesh,

فَإنْ نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ وَرَأى نُتُوءاً فِي الجِلدِ، وَقَدْ صارَ بَعضُ الشَّعرِ أبْيَضَ مَعَ وُجُودِ لَحمٍ حَيٍّ مُتَقَرِّحٍ فِي النُّتُوءِ،

11 i t is an old and deep skin disease on his body. The religious leader will say he is unclean. He will not keep him away from others, for he already is unclean.

فَإنَّهُ بَرَصٌ فِي جِلدِهِ. يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ نَجِسٌ، وَيَعزِلُهُ عَنِ النّاسِ بِسَبَبِ ذَلِكَ.

12 B ut the disease may spread farther on the skin, and cover all the skin of him who has the disease from head to foot, everywhere the religious leader looks.

«وَإنِ انتَشَرَ البَرَصُ فِي الجِلدِ، وَغَطَّى كُلَّ جِلدِ المُصابِ مِنْ رَأسِهِ حَتَّى قَدَمَيهِ حَيثُما نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ،

13 I f the religious leader sees that the skin disease has covered all his body, he will say he is clean from the disease, because the skin has all become white and he is clean.

فَحِينَئِذٍ، يَتَأكَّدُ الكاهِنُ مِنْ أنَّ البَرَصَ قَدْ غَطَّى كُلَّ الجَسَدِ تَماماً، وَيُعلِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ. فَقَدْ تَحَوَّلَ كُلُّ الجِلدِ إلَى اللَّونِ الأبْيَضِ، وَلِهَذا فَهُوَ طاهِرٌ.

14 B ut when open sores in the flesh show on him, he will be unclean.

لَكِنْ إنْ رَأى الكاهِنُ لَحماً حَيّاً مُتَقَرِّحاً عَلَى جَسَدِهِ، فَإنَّهُ يَكُونُ نَجِساً.

15 T he religious leader will look at the open sores in the flesh, and he will say he is unclean. The open sores in the flesh are unclean. It is a bad skin disease.

فَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ اللَّحمَ الحَيَّ المُتَقَرِّحَ، وَيُعلِنَ أنَّ المُصابَ نَجِسٌ. فَاللَّحمُ الحَيُّ المُتَقَرِّحُ نَجِسٌ، لِأنَّهُ بَرَصٌ.

16 I f the flesh with open sores changes again and becomes white, he will come to the religious leader.

«فَإنْ صارَ اللَّحمُ المُتَقَرِّحُ أبْيَضَ ثانِيَةً، يَذهَبُ المُصابُ إلَى الكاهِنِ.

17 I f the religious leader sees that the disease has become white, the religious leader will say that he who had the disease is clean; he is clean.

فَإنْ رَأى الكاهِنُ أنَّ المِنطَقَةَ المُصابَةَ قَدْ صارَتْ كُلُّها بَيضاءَ، يُعلِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ.

18 “ When there is a sore on the skin of the body that has been healed,

«وَإنْ ظَهَرَ دُمَّلٌ عَلَى جِلدِ إنسانٍ وَشُفِيَ،

19 a nd in the place of the sore there is a white, growing spot or a light-red, bright spot, it must be shown to the religious leader.

وَنَشَأ نُتُوءٌ أوْ بُقَعٌ لامِعَةٌ بَيضاءُ مُحمَرَّةٌ فِي مَكانِ الدُّمَّلِ، يَذهَبُ المُصابُ إلَى الكاهِنِ.

20 I f the religious leader finds that it is under the skin and that the hair on it has become white, the religious leader will say he is unclean. It is the bad skin disease. It has broken out in the sore.

فَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ النُّتُوءَ أوِ البُقَعَ. فَإنْ كانَتْ غائِرَةً فِي جِلدِهِ وَسَطحُها أبْيَضُ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّ المُصابَ نَجِسٌ. فَهَذا بَرَصٌ ظَهَرَ مِنَ الدُّمَّلِ.

21 B ut the religious leader may find there are no white hairs in it, and that it is not under the skin and not as dark. Then the religious leader will keep him away from other people for seven days.

لَكِنْ إنْ عَايَنَها الكاهِنُ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيها شَعرٌ أبْيَضُ، وَهِيَ غائِرَةٌ فِي الجِلدِ، وَقَدْ زالَ اللَّمَعانُ الَّذِي كانَ فِيها، يَعْزِلُ الكاهِنُ المُصابَ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

22 I f it spreads farther on the skin, the religious leader will say he is unclean. It is a spreading disease.

فَإنِ انتَشَرَتْ فِي الجِلدِ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنْ المُصابَ نَجِسٌ، فَهَذِهِ بُقْعَةُ التِهابٍ.

23 B ut if the bright spot stays in one place and does not spread, it is only what is left of the sore. The religious leader will say he is clean.

لَكِنْ إنْ بَقِيَتِ البُقعَةُ اللّامِعَةُ فِي مَكانِها، وَلَمْ تَنتَشِرْ، فَإنَّها نُدبَةٌ ناتِجَةٌ عَنِ الدُّمَّلِ. فَيُعلِنُهُ الكاهِنُ طاهِراً.

24 “ If the body has a burn on its skin, and the open sore of the burned flesh becomes a bright spot, light-red or white,

«وَحِينَ يَكُونُ لَدَى شَخصٍ حَرقٌ عَلَى جِلدِهِ، وَاللَّحمُ الحَيُّ النّاتِجُ عَنِ الحَرقِ أبْيَضَ مُحمَرّاً، أوْ بُقعَةً بَيضاءَ لامِعَةً،

25 t he religious leader must look at it. If the hair in the bright spot has become white and it shows to be deeper than the skin, it is a bad skin disease. It has broken out in the burn. So the religious leader will say he is unclean. It is a bad skin disease.

يُعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ، فَإنْ كانَ بَعضُ الشَّعرِ فِي البُقعَةِ الَّلامِعَةِ قَدْ صارَ أبْيَضَ، وَغائِراً فِي الجِلْدِ، فَإنَّهُ بَرَصٌ قَدْ نَشَأ عَنِ الحَرقِ. فَيُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّ المُصابَ نَجِسٌ، فَهُوَ بَرَصٌ.

26 B ut the religious leader may find there is no white hair in the bright spot, and that it is not under the skin and not as dark. Then the religious leader will keep him away from other people for seven days.

لَكِنْ إنْ نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ إلَيهِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ هُناكَ شَعرٌ أبْيَضُ فِي البُقَعِ البَيضاءِ، وَلَمْ تَكُنِ البُقْعَةُ غائِرَةً فِي الجِلدِ، وَكانَ لَمَعانُها قَدْ زالَ، يَعْزِلُهُ الكاهِنُ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

27 O n the seventh day the religious leader will look at him. If it has spread farther in the skin, the religious leader will say he is unclean. It is a bad skin disease.

وَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ المُصابَ ثانِيَةً فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ، فَإنْ كانَتِ البُقعَةُ البَيضاءُ الَّلامِعَةُ قَدِ انتَشَرَتْ فِي الجِلدِ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّ المُصابَ نَجِسٌ. إنَّهُ بَرَصٌ.

28 B ut if the bright spot stays in one place and has not spread in the skin and is not as dark, it is only what is left of the burn. The religious leader will say he is clean. For it is what is left of the burn.

لَكِنْ إنْ بَقِيَتِ البُقعَةُ الَّلامِعَةُ فِي مَكانِها، فَلَمْ تَنتَشِرْ فِي الجِلدِ، وَانطَفَأ لَمَعانُها، فَإنَّها تَكُونُ نُتُوءاً ناتِجاً عَنِ الحَرقِ. يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ، لِأنَّ تِلكَ البُقعَةَ نُدبَةٌ بِسَبِبِ الحَرقِ.

29 “ When a man or woman has a sore on the head or in the hair of the face,

«إنْ كانَتْ لَدَى رَجُلٍ أوِ امْرأةٍ بُقْعَةٌ عَلَى فَروَةِ الرَّأسِ أوِ الذَّقنِ،

30 t he religious leader will look at the sore. If it looks like it is under the skin, with yellow, fine hair in it, the religious leader will say he is unclean. It is a bad skin disease of the head or hair of the face.

يُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ البُقْعَةَ، فَإنْ كانَتْ غائِرَةً فِي الجِلدِ وَكانَ الشَّعرُ أشقَرَ وَدَقِيقاً، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ نَجِسٌ. إنَّهُ التِهابٌ جِلدِيٌّ، بَرَصٌ يُصِيبُ الرَّأسَ وَالذَّقنَ.

31 B ut the religious leader may find that the skin disease is not under the skin and there is no black hair in it. Then the religious leader will keep the person with the disease away from other people for seven days.

لَكِنْ إنْ نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ إلَى البُقْعَةِ، وَلَمْ تَكُنْ غائِرَةً فِي الجِلدِ لَكِنْ لَيسَ فِيها شَعرٌ أسوَدُ، فَيَعْزِلُ الكاهِنُ المُصابَ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

32 O n the seventh day the religious leader will look at the disease. If the sore has not spread, and no yellow hair has grown in it, and it does not look like it is under the skin,

وَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ البُقْعَةَ فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ، فَإنْ رَأى أنَّها لَمْ تَنتَشِرْ وَأنَّهُ لا يُوجَدُ شَعرٌ أشقَرُ فِيها، وَأنَّ الاحْمِرارَ لَيسَ غائِراً فِي الجِلدِ،

33 t hen the sick man will cut off his hair. But he will not cut the hair from the sore. The religious leader will keep the person with the disease away from other people seven more days.

فَيَنبَغِي أنْ يَحلِقَ شَعْرَهُ، مِنْ دُونِ أنْ يَحلِقَ البُقْعَةَ المُحْمَرَّةَ. وَيَعْزِلُ الكاهِنُ المُصابَ ثانِيَةً لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

34 O n the seventh day the religious leader will look at the disease. If the disease has not spread and looks like it is not under the skin, the religious leader will say he is clean. And he will wash his clothes and be clean.

وَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ الاحْمِرارَ فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ. فَإنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ قَدِ انتَشَرَ وَلا كانَ أعمَقَ مِنَ الجِلدِ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ. عَلَيهِ أنْ يَغسِلَ ثِيابَهُ فَيَصِيرُ طاهِراً.

35 B ut if the disease spreads farther in the skin after he was to have been clean,

لَكِنْ إنِ انتَشَرَ الاحْمِرارُ فِي الجِلدِ بَعدَ أنْ أُعلِنَ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ،

36 t hen the religious leader will look at him. If the disease has spread in the skin, the religious leader does not need to look for yellow hair. He is unclean.

يَعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ، فَإنْ رَأى أنَّ الاحْمِرارَ قَدِ انتَشَرَ فِي الجِلدِ، فَإنَّ الكاهِنَ لا يَحتاجُ إلَى البَحثِ عَنْ شَعرٍ أشقَرَ، فَالمُصابُ نَجِسٌ.

37 B ut if he finds that the disease has stayed in one place and black hair has grown in it, the disease has healed. He is clean. And the religious leader will say he is clean.

لَكِنْ إنْ بَقِيَ مَنظَرُ الاحْمِرارِ بِلا تَغيِيرٍ، وَقَدْ نَما فِيهِ شَعرٌ أسوَدُ، فَإنَّ الاحْمِرارَ قَدْ شُفِيَ. فَهُوَ طاهِرٌ، وَيُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ أنَّهُ طاهِرٌ.

38 “ When a man or woman has very white spots on the skin of their body,

«إنْ كانَتْ لَدَى رَجُلٍ أوِ امْرأةٍ بُقَعٌ بَيضاءُ عَلَى جِلدِ جَسَدِهِ،

39 t hen the religious leader will look at them. If the white spots on the skin are not very bright, it is not a bad disease that has broken out on the skin. He is clean.

يُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ الإصابَةَ. فَإنْ كانَتِ البُقَعُ الَّتِي عَلَى الجِلدِ بَيضاءَ كامِدَةً، فَإنَّهُ يَكُونُ التِهاباً جِلدِيّاً غَيرَ مُؤذٍ قَدْ ظَهَرَ عَلَى الجِلدِ، وَيَكُونُ الشَّخصُ طاهِراً.

40 “ If a man’s hair has fallen out and he has no hair on his head, he is clean.

«حِينَ يَفقِدُ رَجُلٌ شَعرَ رَأْسِهِ فَإنَّهُ أصلَعُ، لَكِنَّهُ طاهِرٌ.

41 I f the hair has fallen from the front part of his head so that he has no hair there, he is clean.

إنْ كانَ يَفقِدُ شَعرَهُ مِنَ الجِهَةِ الأمامِيَّةِ لِرَأسِهِ فَإنَّهُ أصلَعُ الجَبهَةِ، لَكِنَّهُ طاهِرٌ.

42 B ut if a red and white sore is on the head where there is no hair, it is a bad skin disease breaking out on his head.

لَكِنْ إنْ ظَهَرَتْ بُقعَةٌ بَيضاءُ مُحمَرَّةٌ عَلَى بُقعَةِ الصَّلَعِ أعلَى الرَّأْسِ أوْ عَلَى الجَبهَةِ فَهَذا بَرَصٌ ظَهَرَ أعلَى رَأسِهِ أوْ عَلَى جَبهَتِهِ.

43 T hen the religious leader will look at him. If the sore is red and white on the head where there is no hair, looking like a bad disease in the skin of the body,

يُعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ، فَإنْ رَأى بُقْعَةً صارَتْ بَيضاءَ مُحمَرَّةً أعلَى رَأسِهِ أوْ عَلَى جَبهَتِهِ مِثلَ مَنظَرِ البَرَصِ الَّذِي يُصِيبُ الجَسَدَ،

44 h e is a man with a bad skin disease. He is unclean. The religious leader will say he is unclean. His disease is on his head. Laws about Clothing

فَإنَّ هَذا الرَّجُلَ مُصابٌ بِالبَرَصِ، وَلِهَذا فَهُوَ نَجِسٌ، يُعلِنُ الكاهِنُ هَذا الرَّجُلَ نَجِساً لِأنَّ رَأسَهُ مُصابٌ.

45 “ The person who has the bad skin disease will wear torn clothes and not cover the hair of his head. He will cover his mouth and cry out, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’

«إنْ كانَ الشَّخصُ مُصاباً بِالبَرَصِ، فَلْيُمَزِّقْ ثِيابَهُ وَيَكشِفْ شَعرَهُ وَيُغَطِّ شارِبَيهِ وَيَصرُخْ: ‹أنا نَجِسٌ، أنا نَجِسٌ.›

46 H e will be unclean as long as he has the disease. He is unclean. He will live alone. His home will be away from the tents.

وَيَكُونُ نَجِساً ما دامَ مُصاباً. إنَّهُ نَجِسٌ، لِذا يَعِيشُ وَحدَهُ خارِجَ المُخَيَّمِ. عَفَنُ القُماش

47 W hen a mark of a bad skin disease is in a piece of clothing, wool or linen,

«وَإنْ كانَ هُناكَ عَفَنٌ فِي قُماشٍ، كانَ صُوفاً أوْ كِتّاناً،

48 i n the cloth of linen or wool, or in leather or anything made of leather,

مَنسُوجاً أوْ مُخاطاً مِنَ الكِتّانِ أوِ الصُّوفِ أوِ الجِلدِ أوْ أيِّ شَيءٍ مَصنُوعٍ مِنَ الجِلدِ،

49 i f the mark is green or red in the clothing or leather, in the cloth or in anything made of leather, it is the mark of a bad skin disease. It will be shown to the religious leader.

وَكانَتِ البُقعَةُ عَلَى القُماشِ أوِ الجِلدِ أوِ المادَةِ المَنسُوجَةِ أوِ المُخاطَةِ أوِ المَصنُوعَةِ مِنَ الجِلدِ، خَضراءَ أوْ حَمراءَ، فَإنَّها عَفَنٌ مُنتَشِرٌ وَيَنبَغِي أنْ تُعرَضَ عَلَى الكاهِنِ.

50 T he religious leader will look at the mark, and will keep the piece of clothing away from people for seven days.

يُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ البُقعَةَ المُصابَةَ وَيَضَعُ ذَلِكَ القُماشَ فِي مَكانٍ مُنعَزِلٍ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ.

51 H e will look at the mark again on the seventh day. If the mark has spread in the clothing, in the cloth or leather or anything made of leather, the mark is a bad disease. It is unclean.

وَيُعايِنُ الكاهِنُ البُقعَةَ فِي اليَومِ السّابِعِ. فَإنْ كانَتِ البُقعَةُ قَدِ انتَشَرَتْ عَلَى القُماشِ أوِ المادَّةِ المَنسُوجَةِ أوِ المُخاطَةِ أوِ الجِلدِ أوْ أيِّ شَيءٍ يُصنَعُ مِنَ الجِلدِ، فَإنَّ البُقعَةَ تَكُونُ عَفَناً مُنتَشِراً، وَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ الشَّيءُ نَجِساً.

52 S o he will burn the clothing if the disease is in the cloth, in wool or linen or in anything made of leather, for it is a very bad disease. It will be burned in the fire.

يَحْرِقُ الكاهِنُ ذَلِكَ القُماشَ، سَواءٌ أكانَ مَنسُوجاً أمْ مُخاطاً أمْ كِتّاناً أمْ جِلداً عَلَيهِ عَفَنٌ، لِأنَّهُ عَفَنٌ مُنتَشِرٌ.

53 “ But the religious leader may look and find that the mark has not spread in the clothing, in the cloth or anything made of leather.

«فَإنْ نَظَرَ الكاهِنُ وَرَأى أنَّ البُقعَةَ لَمْ تَنتَشِرْ فِي القُماشِ، سَواءٌ أكانَ مِنْ مادَّةٍ مَنسُوجَةٍ أمْ مُخاطَةٍ أمْ مِنْ جِلدٍ،

54 T hen the religious leader will tell them to wash the thing that has the mark of disease. And he will keep it away from people for seven more days.

يَأمُرُ بِغَسلِ ذَلِكَ القُماشِ الَّذِي عَلَيهِ البُقعَةُ، وَوَضْعِهِ فِي مَكانٍ مُنعَزِلٍ لِسَبعَةِ أيّامٍ أُخْرَى.

55 A fter the piece of cloth or leather with the mark has been washed, the religious leader will look at it again. If the mark has not changed, even if the mark has not spread, it is unclean. You will burn it in the fire, if the mark of disease is on the back or the front.

وَبَعدَ أنْ يُغسَلَ القُماشُ الَّذِي عَلَيهِ البُقعَةُ، يُعايِنُهُ الكاهِنُ ثانِيَةً، فَإنْ رَأى أنَّ البُقعَةَ لَمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ لَونُها، وَأنَّ العَفَنَ لَمْ يَنتَشِرْ فَإنَّ القُماشَ يَكُونُ نَجِساً. يُحْرَقُ القُماشُ، سَواءٌ أكانَتِ البُقعَةُ فِي الجِهَةِ الأمامِيَّةِ أمِ الخَلفِيَّةِ.

56 “ But the religious leader may find that the mark is not as easy to see after it is washed. Then he will tear it out of the clothing, leather or cloth.

«لَكِنْ إنْ فَحَصَ الكاهِنُ القُماشَ فَرَأى أنَّ البُقعَةَ قَدْ بَهَتَ لَونُها بَعدَ أنْ غُسِلَ القُماشُ، يَقُصُّ الكاهِنُ البُقعَةَ مِنَ الجِلدِ أوِ القُماشِ مَنسُوجاً كانَ أوْ مُخاطاً.

57 I f it is seen again in the clothing, in cloth or anything made of leather, it is spreading. The thing that has the mark will be burned in the fire.

فَإنْ ظَهَرَتِ البُقَعُ ثانِيَةً فِي القُماشِ مَنسُوجاً كانَ أوْ مُخاطاً، أوْ فِي أيِّ شَيءٍ مَصنُوعٍ مِنَ الجِلدِ، فَقَدِ انتَشَرَ ثانِيَةً. يُحْرَقُ القُماشُ الَّذِي عَلَيهِ البُقعَةُ.

58 B ut if the clothing, cloth or anything made of leather, had the mark washed out of it, it will then be washed a second time. And it will be clean.”

لَكِنْ إنِ اختَفَتِ البُقعَةُ مِنَ القُماشِ – مَنسُوجاً كانَ أوْ مُخاطاً أوْ فِي الجِلدِ القابِلِ لِلغَسلِ – فَيَنبَغِي أنْ يُغسَلَ ثانِيَةً فَيَصِيرَ طاهِراً.»

59 T his is the law for the mark of a very bad disease in clothing of wool or linen, in cloth or in anything made of leather, for deciding if it is clean or not.

هَذِهِ هِيَ الشَّرائِعُ المُتَعَلِّقَةُ بِعَفَنِ القُماشِ لِلحُكمِ فِي طَهارَتِهِ أوْ نَجاسَتِهِ، سَواءٌ أكانَ صُوفاً أمْ كِتّاناً – مَبْرُوماً أوْ مُخاطاً – أمْ مَصنُوعاً مِنَ جِلدٍ.
