Leviticus
1And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying2Say to the sons of Israel: These are the animals that you ought to eat out of all the living things of the earth3All that has a divided hoof, and that chews over again, among the cattle, you shall eat4But whatever certainly chews over again, but has a hoof that is not divided, such as the camel and others, these you shall not eat, and you shall consider them to be among what is unclean5The rock rabbit which chews over again, and whose hoof is not divided, is unclean6and so also is the hare, for it too chews over again, yet its hoof is not divided7and also the swine, which, though its hoof is divided, does not chew over again8The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you9These are the things that breed in the waters, and which it is lawful to eat. All that has little fins and scales, as much in the sea, as in the rivers and ponds, you shall eat10But whatever does not have fins and scales, of those things that live and move in the waters, shall be abominable to you11and detestable; their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall avoid12All that does not have fins and scales in the waters shall be polluted13These are those things among the birds which you must not eat, and which are to be avoided by you: the eagle, and the griffin, and the osprey14and the kite, as well as the vulture, according to their kind15and all that is of the raven kind, according to their likeness16the ostrich, and the owl, and the gull, and the hawk, according to its kind17the owl, and the sea bird, and the ibis18and the swan, and the pelican, and the marsh hen19the heron, and the plover according to its kind, the crested hoopoe, and also the bat20Of all that flies, whatever steps upon four feet shall be abominable to you21But whatever certainly walks upon four feet, and also has longer legs behind, with which it hops upon the earth22you shall eat, such as the beetle in its kind, and the cricket, and grasshopper, and the locust, each one according to its kind23But among flying things, whatever has only four feet shall be detestable to you24And whoever will have touched their carcasses shall be defiled, and he shall be unclean until evening25And if it will be necessary to carry any of these dead things, he shall wash his clothes, and he shall be unclean until the sun sets26Every animal that certainly has a hoof, but which is not divided, nor does it chew over again, shall be unclean. And whoever will have touched it shall be contaminated27Whatever walks upon its hands, out of all the animals that advance on all fours, shall be unclean. Whoever will have touched their carcasses shall be polluted until evening28And whoever will have carried this kind of carcass shall wash his clothes, and he shall be unclean until evening. For all these are unclean to you29Likewise, these shall be considered among the polluted things, out of all that moves upon the earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the crocodile, each one according to its kind30the shrew, and the chameleon, and the gecko, and the lizard, and the mole31All these are unclean. Whoever will have touched their carcasses shall be unclean until evening32And anything upon which something from their carcasses will have fallen shall be defiled, whether it is a vessel of wood, or a garment, or skins, or haircloths, or anything by which work is done. These shall be dipped in water and shall be defiled until evening, but then afterwards these shall be clean33But an earthen vessel, into which something from these will fall, shall be defiled; and therefore it is to be broken34Any of the foods that you eat, if water from such a vessel will have been poured upon it, it shall be unclean. And every liquid which one may drink from such a vessel shall be unclean35And if anything from among these kinds of dead things has fallen upon it, it shall be unclean, whether it be an oven, or a pot with feet, these shall be unclean and shall be destroyed36Yet truly, fountains and cisterns, and all reservoirs of water shall be clean. Whoever will have touched their carcasses shall be defiled37If it falls upon seed grain, it shall not defile it38But if anyone has poured water upon the seed grain, and afterwards it was touched by the carcasses, it shall be immediately defiled39If any animals will have died, from which it is lawful for you to eat, whoever will have touched its carcass shall be unclean until evening40And whoever will have eaten or carried anything of these shall wash his clothes, and he shall be unclean until evening41All that creeps across the earth shall be abominable, neither shall it taken up as food42Whatever advances by four feet upon the chest, or that has many feet, or that drags across the soil, you shall not eat, because it is abominable43Do not be willing to contaminate your souls, nor shall you touch any of these, lest you become unclean44For I am the Lord your God. Be holy, for I am Holy. Do not pollute your souls with any creeping thing, which moves across the land45For I am the Lord, who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I would be your God; you shall be holy, for I am Holy46This is the law of animals and flying things, and of every living soul that moves in the waters or creeps upon the land47so that you may know the difference between clean and unclean, and so that you may know what you ought to eat, and what you ought to refuse
1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying2Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: A woman, if she has received the seed to bear a male, shall be unclean for seven days, just as in the days of separation due to menstruation3And on the eighth day, the little infant shall be circumcised4Yet truly, she herself shall remain for thirty-three days in the blood of her purification. She shall not touch anything holy, nor shall she enter into the Sanctuary, until the days of her purification are completed5But if she will bear a female, she shall be unclean for two weeks, according to the custom of her monthly flow, and she shall remain in the blood of her purification for sixty-six days6And when the days of her purification have been completed, for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, a one-year-old lamb as a holocaust, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for sin, and she shall deliver them to the priest7He shall offer them in the sight of the Lord, and he shall pray for her. And so she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for one who bears a male or a female8And if her hand has not obtained or been able to offer a lamb, she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons: one as a holocaust, and the other for sin. And the priest shall pray for her, and so she shall be cleansed
1And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying2The man in whose skin or flesh there will have arisen a diverse color, or a pustule, or something that seems to shine, which is the mark of leprosy, shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to anyone you wish among his sons3And if he sees that leprosy is in his skin, and that the hair has turned a white color, and that the place where the leprosy appears is lower than the rest of the skin and the flesh, then it is the mark of leprosy, and at his judgment he shall be separated4But if there will be a shining whiteness in the skin, but it is not lower than the rest of the flesh, and the hair is of unaffected color, the priest shall seclude him for seven days5And on the seventh day he shall examine him, and if the leprosy certainly has not increased further, and has not spread itself in the skin, he shall seclude him again, for another seven days6And on the seventh day, he shall evaluate him. If the leprosy has become obscured, and has not increased in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is a scab. And the man shall wash his clothes, and he shall be clean7But if the leprosy increases again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him8and he shall be condemned of uncleanness9If the mark of leprosy has been in a man, he shall be brought to the priest10and he shall look upon him. And when there is a white color in the skin, and it has an altered appearance in its hair, and also the same flesh seems alive11it shall be judged a chronic leprosy, which has grown into the skin. And so the priest shall declare him contaminated, and he shall not seclude him, because he is clearly unclean12But if the leprosy will have flourished, coursing through the skin, and will have covered all the skin from the head even to the feet, whatever falls under the sight of the eyes13the priest shall examine him, and he shall judge that the leprosy that he possesses is very clean, because it has all turned to whiteness, and for this reason the man shall be clean14Yet truly, when the living flesh shall appear in him15then by the judgment of the priest he shall be polluted, and he shall be considered to be among the unclean. For the live flesh, if it is spotted with leprosy, is unclean16And if again it will have turned into whiteness, and will have covered the entire man17the priest shall examine him, and he shall discern him to be clean18But when there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has healed19and in the place of the ulcer, there appears a white or reddish scar, the man shall be brought to the priest20And when he will have seen the place of the leprosy lower than the rest of the flesh, and that the hair has turned white, he shall declare him contaminated. For the plague of leprosy has arisen from the ulcer21But if the hair is of the usual color, and the scar is somewhat obscure and is not lower than the nearby flesh, he shall seclude him for seven days22And if it will have certainly increased, he shall judge him to have leprosy23But if it stays in its place, it is the scar of an ulcer, and the man shall be clean24But if flesh and skin has been burned by fire, and, having been healed, now has a white or red scar25the priest shall examine it, and if he sees that it has turned white, and that its place is lower than the rest of the skin, he shall declare him contaminated, for the mark of leprosy has arisen in the scar26But if the color of the hair has not been changed, nor is the mark lower than the rest of the flesh, and the leprosy itself appears to be somewhat obscure, he shall seclude him for seven days27and on the seventh day he shall evaluate him. If the leprosy will have increased further in the skin, he shall declare him contaminated28But if the whiteness stays in its place and is not very clear, it is the mark of a burn, and for this reason he shall be declared clean, because it is only the scar from a burn29If leprosy will have sprung up in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the priest shall look upon them30and if the place is certainly lower than the rest of the flesh, and the hair is golden, and thinner than usual, he shall declare them contaminated, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard31But if he sees that the place of the spot is equal with the nearby flesh, and that the hair is black, he shall seclude him for seven days32and on the seventh day he shall examine it. If the spot has not increased, and the hair has kept its color, and the place of the mark is equal with the rest of the flesh33the man shall be shaven, except in the place of the spot, and he shall be secluded for another seven days34On the seventh day, if the mark seems to have stayed in its place, and it is not lower than the rest of the flesh, he shall declare him clean, and, his clothes having been washed, he shall be clean35But if, after his cleansing, the spot will have increased again in the skin36he shall no longer inquire as to whether the hair has turned yellow, because he is plainly unclean37Furthermore, if the spot has not increased, and the hair is black, let him know that the man is healed: and let him confidently pronounce him clean38If a whiteness will have appeared in the skin of a man or a woman39the priest shall examine them. If he detects an obscured whiteness shining in the skin, may he know that it is not leprosy, but a white-colored blemish, and that the man is clean40The man whose hair falls off of his head is bald and clean41And if the hair falls off of his forehead, he is bald in front and clean42But if in the bald head or bald forehead there has arisen a white or reddish color43and the priest will have seen this, he shall condemn him without doubt of leprosy, which has arisen in the baldness44Therefore, whoever will have been spotted by leprosy, and who has been separated at the judgment of the priest45shall have his clothes unstitched, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth, and he himself shall cry out that he is contaminated and filthy46The entire time that he is a leper and unclean he shall live alone outside the camp47A woolen or linen garment that will have held the leprosy48in the main fibers or in any of the threads, or certainly in a skin, or whatever has been made from a skin49if it has been infected with a white or red spot, it shall be considered to be leprosy, and it shall be shown to the priest50And he, having examined it, shall close it up for seven days51And on the seventh day, having looked at it again, if he detects an increase, it is a persistent leprosy; he shall judge the garment to be polluted, along with everything with which it has been found52And because of this, it shall be burned in flames53But if he will have seen that it has not increased54he shall instruct them, and they shall wash whatever has the leprosy in it, and he shall close it up for another seven days55And when he will have seen that the former appearance has not returned, even if the leprosy has not increased, he shall judge it to be unclean, and he shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has been infused in the exterior of the garment, or throughout the whole56But if the place of the leprosy has become somewhat darker, after the garment has been washed, he shall tear it away, and separate it from the part that is sound57But if, after this, there will appear in those places which before were immaculate, a flying and wandering leprosy, it must be burned with fire58If it will have ceased, he shall wash with water the parts which are pure for a second time, and they shall be clean59This is the law about leprosy for any woolen or linen garment, in the weave and in the threads, and for all items made from skins, how it must be declared either clean or contaminated
1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying2This is the rite for a leper, when he is to be cleansed. He shall be brought to the priest3who, departing from the camp, when he has found the leprosy to be cleansed4shall instruct him who is to be purified to offer for himself two living sparrows, which it is lawful to eat, and cedar wood, and vermillion, and hyssop5And he shall order that one of the sparrows be immolated in an earthen vessel over living waters6But the other living one, with the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, he shall dip in the blood of the immolated sparrow7And he shall sprinkle him who is to be cleansed seven times, so that he may be purified justly. And he shall release the living sparrow, so that it may fly away into the field8And when the man will have washed his clothes, he shall shave all the hair from his body, and he shall be washed with water. And having been purified, he shall enter into the camp, only to this extent: that he may remain outside his own tent for seven days9And on the seventh day he shall shave the hair of his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows, as well as the hair of his entire body. And having washed his clothes again, and his body10on the eighth day, he shall take two immaculate lambs, and a one-year-old female sheep without blemish, and three tenths of fine wheat flour, which has been sprinkled with oil, as a sacrifice, and separately, one twelfth hin of oil11And when the priest purifying the man has presented him and all these things in the sight of the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony12he shall take a lamb and offer it for transgression, with the twelfth hin of oil. And having offered all these before the Lord13he shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is usually immolated with the holocaust, that is, in the holy place. For just as with the one for sin, so also the victim for transgression belongs to the priest. It is the Holy of holies14And taking some of the blood of the victim, which was immolated for transgression, the priest shall place it upon the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and likewise the foot15And he shall send some of the twelfth hin of oil into his own left hand16and he shall dip his right finger in it, and he shall sprinkle it in the sight of the Lord seven times17But the oil which remains in his left hand, he shall pour over the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand as well as the foot, and upon the blood which was shed for transgression18and upon his head19And he shall pray for him in the sight of the Lord, and he shall accomplish the sacrifice on behalf of sin. Then he shall immolate the holocaust20and place it upon the altar with its libations, and the man will be duly cleansed21But if he is poor, and his hand is not able to find what has been said, he shall take a lamb as an offering for transgression, so that the priest may pray for him, and a tenth part of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, as a sacrifice, and a twelfth hin of oil22and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, of which one may be for sin, and the other as a holocaust23And he shall offer them on the eighth day of his purification to the priest at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony in the sight of the Lord24And he, receiving the lamb for transgression, and the twelfth hin of oil, shall lift them up together25And when the lamb has been immolated, he shall place some of its blood upon the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, as well as the foot26Yet truly, he shall send part of the oil into his own left hand27and dipping the finger of his right hand in it, he shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord28And he shall touch the tip of the right ear of him who is being cleansed, and the thumb of his right hand, as well as the foot, in the place of the blood which was shed for transgression29But the remaining part of the oil which is in his left hand, he shall send upon the head of the one being purified, to appease the Lord on his behalf30And he shall offer a turtledove or a young pigeon31one for transgression, and the other as a holocaust, with their libations32This is the sacrifice of a leper, who is not able to obtain all of the things concerning his cleansing33And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying34When you will have entered into the land of Canaan, which I will give to you as a possession, if there is the mark of leprosy in a building35he whose house it is shall go and report to the priest, saying: "It seems to me that the mark of leprosy is in my house.36And he shall instruct them to carry all things out of the house, before he would enter it and see whether it is leprosy, lest all that is in the house become unclean. And after this, he shall enter to examine the leprosy of the house37And when he will have seen in its walls something like little hollows, deformed with paleness or redness, and lower than the remaining surface38he shall exit by the door of the house, and immediately close it up for seven days39And returning on the seventh day, he shall examine it. If he finds that the leprosy has spread40he shall order the stones in which the leprosy is, to be dug out and cast outside the city in an unclean place41and that the house be scraped on the inside all around, and that the dust of the scrapings be scattered outside the city in an unclean place42and that other stones be put back, in place of those which had been taken away, and that the house be plastered with other mortar43But if, after the stones have been dug out, and the dust wiped away, and it is plastered with other clay44the priest, upon entering, will have seen that the leprosy has returned, and that the walls are sprinkled with spots, then it is a persistent leprosy and the house is unclean45And so they shall promptly destroy it, and shall cast its stones and timber, and also all the dust, outside the town in an unclean place46Whoever enters into the house when it is closed up shall be unclean until evening47And whoever will have slept in it, or eaten anything, shall wash his clothes48But if the priest, upon entering, will have seen that the leprosy has not spread in the house, after it had been newly plastered, he shall purify it, restoring it to health49And for its purification, he shall take two sparrows, and cedar wood, and vermillion, as well as hyssop50and, having immolated one sparrow in an earthen vessel over living waters51he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living sparrow, and he shall dip all these in the blood of the immolated sparrow, and also in the living water, and he shall sprinkle the house seven times52And he shall purify it as much with the blood of the sparrow as with the living water, and with the living sparrow, and the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the vermillion53And when he has released the sparrow to fly freely away into the field, he shall pray for the house, and it shall be justly cleansed54This is the law of every kind of leprosy and plague55of the leprosy of garments and houses56of scars and erupting pustules, of a shining spot, when the appearance is also variegated57so that it can be known at what time a thing is clean or unclean
1And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying2Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them: The man who undergoes a flow of seed shall be unclean3And then he shall be judged subject to this fault, if a filthy fluid, at each moment, adheres to his flesh and gathers there4Every bed on which he sleeps shall be unclean, and every place where he sits5If any man has touched his couch, he shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening6If he will have sat where that man has sat, he shall also wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening7Whoever has touched his flesh shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening8If such a man has cast his spittle upon him who is clean, he shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening9The saddle on which he has sat shall be unclean10And whatever has been under him who has undergone a flow of seed shall be polluted until evening. Whoever carries any of these things shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening11All whom such a one has touched, not having washed his hands before, shall wash his clothes, and having washed with water, he shall be unclean until evening12If he has touched an earthen vessel, it shall be broken. But if it is a wooden vessel, it shall be washed with water13If he who suffers from this affliction will have been healed, he shall number seven days after his cleansing, and having washed his clothes and his entire body in living water, he shall be clean14Then, on the eighth day, he shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and he shall advance, in the sight of the Lord, toward the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and he shall give these to the priest15who shall offer one for sin, and the other as a holocaust. And he shall pray for him before the Lord, so that he may be cleansed from the flow of his seed16A man from whom the seed of sexual intercourse goes out shall wash his entire body with water, and he shall be unclean until evening17The garment or skin which he will have, he shall wash with water, and it shall be unclean until evening18The woman with whom he has had sexual intercourse shall be washed with water, and she shall be unclean until evening19The woman who, at the return of the month, undergoes the flow of blood shall be separated for seven days20All who will touch her shall be unclean until evening21And everything on which she sleeps or sits, in the days of her separation, shall be polluted22Whoever will have touched her bed shall wash his clothes, and having washed himself with water, he shall be unclean until evening23Anyone who will have touched any item on which she has sat shall wash his clothes, and having washed himself with water, he shall be polluted until evening24If a man has sexual intercourse with her in the time of her monthly flow of blood, he shall be unclean for seven days, and every bed on which he sleeps shall be polluted25The woman who undergoes a flow of blood many days beyond her time of menstruation, or whose blood does not cease to flow after the menstrual blood, as long as she is subject to this affliction, she shall be unclean, just as if she were in her time of menstruation26Every bed on which she sleeps, and every item on which she sits, shall be polluted27Whoever will have touched these shall wash his clothes, and having washed himself with water, he shall be unclean until evening28If the blood has stopped and has ceased to flow, she shall number seven days for her purification29and on the eighth day she shall offer for herself, to the priest, two turtledoves or two young pigeons, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony30And he shall offer one for sin, and the other as a holocaust, and he shall pray for her before the Lord, and for the flow of her uncleanness31Therefore, you shall teach the sons of Israel to be cautious of uncleanness, so that they may not die in their filth, when they will have polluted my tabernacle, which is among them32This is the law of him who undergoes a flow of seed, or who is polluted by sexual intercourse33and of her who is separated in the time of menstruation, or who has a continual flow of blood, and of the man who sleeps with her
