¹Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

¹ Rabbi salaŋ Musa da Haruna se koyne ka ne:

²“When a man shall have a rising in his body’s skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons, the priests:

² «Da boro fo te fuusi-fuusi nga gaaham kuuro gaa, wala a te bi, wala a te gugusi mo kaŋ ga haaga, hal a te jiray doori nga gaaham kuuro gaa, waato din gaa i ma kande bora Haruna do, wala a ize fo do kaŋ ga ti alfaga.

³and the priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body’s skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean.

³ Alfaga mo ga dooro kaŋ go gaaham kuuro gaa guna. Da hamney kaŋ go nango ra bare ka kwaaray, da biyo mo hima danga a guusu ka bisa bora gaaham kuuru cindo, kulu jiraytaray doori no. Kala alfaga ma bora guna ka ci a se kaŋ a ga ziibi.

⁴If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, and its hair hasn’t turned white, then the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days.

⁴ Amma gugusi kaŋ ga haaga, d'a kwaaray bora gaaham kuuro gaa, amma a mana hima danga a guusu nda kuuru cindo, d'a hamney mana bare ka kwaaray mo, waato din gaa alfaga ma doorikomo daabu kala jirbi iyye.

⁵The priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and, behold, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn’t spread in the skin, then the priest shall isolate him for seven more days.

⁵ Jirbi iyyanta hane mo alfaga ma ye ka bora guna. D'a di kaŋ dooro mana tonton, a mana daaru kuuro gaa mo, kala alfaga m'a daabu jirbi iyye fo koyne.

⁶The priest shall examine him again on the seventh day; and behold, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn’t spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.

⁶ Alfaga ma ye k'a guna jirbi iyyanta din hane. D'a di dooro mana haaga gumo, a mana daaru kuuro gaa, waato din gaa alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga hanan; bi hinne day no. Bora ma nga bankaarayey nyuna ka hanan.

⁷But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again.

⁷ Amma da alfaga di bora, hala mo a ne a ga hanan, woodin banda mo biyo soobay ka ŋwa kuuro gaa, kala bora din ma ye ka nga boŋ cabe alfaga se.

⁸The priest shall examine him; and behold, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.

⁸ Alfaga mo ma guna ka di. Da biyo daaru kuuro gaa, waato din gaa alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga harram, kaŋ jiraytaray no.

⁹“When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;

⁹ Da jiraytaray doori go boro fo gaa, i ma kand'a alfaga do.

¹⁰and the priest shall examine him. Behold, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising,

¹⁰ Alfaga ma guna ka di. D'a te gugusi kwaaray fo kuuro gaa kaŋ n'a hamney ciya ikwaaray, d'a te basi ciray mo guda gaa,

¹¹it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean.

¹¹ woodin jiraytaray zeeno no bora gaaham kuuro gaa. Alfaga ma ci a se kaŋ a ga ziibi. A ma s'a daabu ka di, zama a ziibi.

¹²“If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest;

¹² Amma da jiray dooro say-say kuuro gaa hal a daaru gaaham kuuro kulu gaa za boŋo ka koy cey gaa, alfaga diyaŋo gaa,

¹³then the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean.

¹³ waato din gaa alfaga ma guna ka di. Da dooro go a gaahamo kulu gaa, a ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga hanan zama a kulu ye ka kwaaray. A ga hanan.

¹⁴But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.

¹⁴ Amma waati kulu kaŋ basi ciray ga bangay bora gaa, a ga ziibi koyne.

¹⁵The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.

¹⁵ Alfaga mo ma basi cira guna ka ci a se kaŋ a ga ziibi. Baso no ga ziibi, jiraytaray no.

¹⁶Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest;

¹⁶ Wala mo da basi cira bare koyne, a ye ka kwaaray, waato din gaa bora ma kaa alfaga do.

¹⁷and the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.

¹⁷ Nga mo ma guna ka di. Da dooro ye ka kwaaray, waato din gaa no alfaga ma ci doorikomo se kaŋ a ga hanan, zama a hanan no.

¹⁸“When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,

¹⁸ Da boro fo te jaŋ nga gaaham kuuro gaa, hala a yay mo,

¹⁹and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest;

¹⁹ amma jaŋo dolla ra ye ka fuusuyaŋ kwaaray fo te, wala tombi kaŋ ga haaga, a ga ciray-ciray mo, a m'a cabe alfaga se.

²⁰and the priest shall examine it; and behold, if its appearance is lower than the skin, and its hair has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil.

²⁰ Alfaga mo ma guna ka di. D'a hima danga a ga guusu nda kuuro, a hamney mo bare ka kwaaray, waato din gaa alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga ziibi. Jiraytaray doori no kaŋ furo jaŋo ra.

²¹But if the priest examines it, and behold, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn’t deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.

²¹ Amma da alfaga guna, a mana di a ra hamni kwaaray kulu, a si kuuro se ganda, amma a go ga bi-bi, waato din gaa alfaga ma bora daabu hala jirbi iyye.

²²If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.

²² Da biyo daaru kuuro gaa, woodin banda alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga ziibi; doori laalo no.

²³But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn’t spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.

²³ Amma da nango kaŋ ga haaga goro yaadin, a mana tonton mo, gaa no a ma bay kaŋ jaŋ dollo day no. Alfaga ma ci bora se a ga hanan.

²⁴“Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white,

²⁴ Wala nda boro fo gonda danji tonyaŋ bi gaahamo gaa, noodin baso ciray mo, a ra tombi te kaŋ ga haaga, kaŋ ga ciray-ciray mo, wala a ga kwaaray,

²⁵then the priest shall examine it; and behold, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and its appearance is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.

²⁵ kala alfaga ma guna ka di. Da tombo kaŋ haaga gonda hamni fooyaŋ kaŋ yaŋ ga kwaaray, d'a hima danga a guusu nda kuuro mo, jiraytaray dumi fo no kaŋ zay danji tonyaŋ biyo ra. Alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ziibi, zama jiraytaray doori no.

²⁶But if the priest examines it, and behold, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn’t lower than the skin, but is faded; then the priest shall isolate him seven days.

²⁶ Amma da alfaga guna ka di, hamni kwaaray si no tombo kaŋ ga haaga ra, a mana guusu nda kuuro mo, kala alfaga ma bora daabu kala jirbi iyye.

²⁷The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy.

²⁷ Jirbi iyyanta hane mo, alfaga ma dooro guna. Da dooro daaru kuuro gaa, kala alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ziibi; jiraytaray no.

²⁸If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn’t spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn.

²⁸ Da tombo kaŋ haaga goro day yaadin nga nangu zeena ra, a mana tonton kuuro gaa amma a ga bi-bi; tonyaŋ bi hinne day no. Alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga hanan, zama nango kaŋ ton dolla no.

²⁹“When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,

²⁹ Koyne, da alboro fo wala wayboro fo gonda bi boŋo gaa wala kaaba gaa,

³⁰then the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if its appearance is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard.

³⁰ kala alfaga ma dooro guna ka di. D'a ga hima danga a guusu nda kuuro, d'a gonda hamni mariyo fooyaŋ kaŋ yaŋ ga say-say, kala alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ziibi. Kaajiri fo dumi no, jiraytaray kaŋ te boŋ gaa wala kaabe gaa.

³¹If the priest examines the plague of itching, and behold, its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall isolate him the person infected with itching seven days.

³¹ Amma da alfaga na kaajiro guna, a di nango mana hima danga a guusu nda kuuru cindo, a sinda hamniyaŋ kaŋ ga bi a ra mo, waato din gaa alfaga ma doorikomo daabu kala jirbi iyye.

³²On the seventh day the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if the itch hasn’t spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn’t deeper than the skin,

³² Jirbi iyyanta hane mo, alfaga ma ye ka dooro guna ka di. Da kaajiro mana tonton, hamni say kulu si a ra mo, kaajiro mo mana hima danga a guusu nda kuuro,

³³then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the priest shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days.

³³ waato din gaa i ma bora cabu, amma manti naŋ kaŋ kaajiro go. Alfaga ma kaajirikoyo daabu kala jirbi iyye fo koyne.

³⁴On the seventh day, the priest shall examine the itch; and behold, if the itch hasn’t spread in the skin, and its appearance isn’t deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean.

³⁴ Jirbi iyyanta hane, alfaga ma kaajiro guna ka di. Da kaajiro mana daaru kuuro gaa, a mana hima danga a ga guusu nda kuuro mo, kala alfaga ma ci bora se kaŋ a ga hanan. A ma nga bankaarayey nyuna ka hanan.

³⁵But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,

³⁵ Amma a hananyaŋo banda, da kaajiro ye ka daaru,

³⁶then the priest shall examine him; and behold, if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean.

³⁶ alfaga ma guna ka di. Da kaajiro daaru kuuro gaa, alfaga ma si hamni say ceeci bo. Bora din ziibi.

³⁷But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean.

³⁷ Amma d'a guna, a ne kaajiro mana tonton, hamni biyaŋ jin ka zay a ra mo, kaajiro yay. Bora ga hanan. Alfaga ma ci a se kaŋ a ga hanan.

³⁸“When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots;

³⁸ Da alboro fo wala wayboro fo gonda tombiyaŋ kaŋ yaŋ ga haaga a gaaham kuuro gaa, danga tombi kwaaray kaŋ yaŋ ga haaga,

³⁹then the priest shall examine them; and behold, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; he is clean.

³⁹ kala alfaga ma guna ka di. Da tombey kaŋ yaŋ ga haaga, kaŋ yaŋ go a gaaham kuuro gaa ga kwaaray-kwaaray day no, dollo fo no kaŋ te kuuro gaa. Bora ga hanan.

⁴⁰“If a man’s hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean.

⁴⁰ Da boro fo boŋ hamni dagu ka kaŋ, bora te buulal, amma a ga hanan.

⁴¹If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean.

⁴¹ D'a boŋ hamno dagu sukuto gaa haray, a te buulal hinne day no jine haray, amma a ga hanan.

⁴²But if there is in the bald head, or the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague; it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or his bald forehead.

⁴² Amma bora do kaŋ te buulal hala sukuto gaa haray wala konda gaa haray no, da dooro ciray-ciray, yaadin gaa jiraytaray no kaŋ zay konda gaa wala sukuto gaa, nango kaŋ te buulal.

⁴³Then the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the rising of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh,

⁴³ Waato din gaa alfaga ma bora guna ka di. Da dooro fuusuyaŋo ciray-ciray konda gaa wala sukuto gaa, nango kaŋ te buulal, dooro mo ga hima jiraytaray kaŋ ga te boro gaaham kuuro gaa,

⁴⁴he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.

⁴⁴ kulu bora koy te jiraykooni. A ga ziibi. Alfaga ma si jaŋ ka ci a se kaŋ a ziibi. Dooro go a boŋo gaa.

⁴⁵“The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’

⁴⁵ Jiraykoono kaŋ dooro go a gaa, a ma dira ka windi nda bankaarayyaŋ kaŋ kottu. A ma si nga boŋo daabu, a ma nga meyo daabu ka kuuwa ka ne: ‹Ziibi! Ay ga ziibi!›

⁴⁶All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. Outside of the camp shall be his dwelling.

⁴⁶ Jirbey kulu kaŋ dooro go a gaa mo, a ga goro iziibo, zama nga wo iziibo no. A ma goro waani, nga hinne. Gata banda ga ti a nangoray.

⁴⁷“The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;

⁴⁷ Bankaaray kulu mo kaŋ ra jiray dooro go no, da feeji hamni silli wane no wala lin* wane;

⁴⁸whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin;

⁴⁸ da dooro go jarsa ra wala soofo ra; da feeji hamni no wala lin no, da kuuru fo gaa no a go, wala hay fo kaŋ i te da kuuru;

⁴⁹if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest.

⁴⁹ da bilsa ga boogu-boogu no wala a ga ciray-ciray bankaara ra wala kuuro gaa; da jarsa ra no wala soofo ra, wala hay kulu kaŋ i te da kuuru -- i kulu jiray doori no. I m'a cabe alfaga se.

⁵⁰The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.

⁵⁰ Alfaga mo ga bilsa guna k'a jisi kala jirbi iyye,

⁵¹He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean.

⁵¹ ka bilsa guna jirbi iyyanta hane. Da bilsa daaru bankaara gaa, da jarsa ra no wala soofo ra, wala kuuru gaa goy kulu kaŋ no i ga goy d'a, ma bay kaŋ jiraytaray no kaŋ ga ŋwa. A ga ziibi.

⁵²He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is: for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire.

⁵² Alfaga ma bankaara ton, da dooro go jarsa ra wala soofo ra; da feeji hamni taafe no wala lin wane, wala hay kulu kaŋ i te da kuuru. Haŋ kaŋ no kulu, jiraytaray no kaŋ ga ŋwa. I m'a ton da danji.

⁵³“If the priest examines it, and behold, the plague hasn’t spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin;

⁵³ Amma da alfaga guna, a mana di dooro daaru bankaara gaa, da jarsa ra wala soofo ra, wala hay kulu kaŋ i te da kuuru,

⁵⁴then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days.

⁵⁴ waato din gaa no alfaga ma ci i se i ma haya din nyuna, wo kaŋ gonda bilsa. A ma ye k'a jisi jirbi iyye fo.

⁵⁵Then the priest shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and behold, if the plague hasn’t changed its color, and the plague hasn’t spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside.

⁵⁵ Woodin banda alfaga ma jinayo kaŋ i nyuna guna. D'a di bilsa din dumo mana bare, baa da dooro mana daaru, kulu nda yaadin a ga ziibi. Ni m'a ton nda danji zama a go g'a ŋwa, a ra wala a banda haray.

⁵⁶If the priest looks, and behold, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof:

⁵⁶ Amma da waato kaŋ alfaga guna, a di bilsa ye ka daaru nyunayaŋo banda, kal a m'a dagu k'a kaa bankaara gaa wala kuuro gaa, d'a go jarsa ra wala soofo ra.

⁵⁷and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is.

⁵⁷ D'a ye ka bangay bankaara ra, da jarsa ra wala soofo ra, wala hay kulu kaŋ i te da kuuru, a go ga zay no. Ni m'a ton da danji, hay kulu kaŋ no kaŋ a ra dooro go.

⁵⁸The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean.”

⁵⁸ Amma bankaara da jarsa no wala soofo no wala hay fo kaŋ i te nda kuuru, kaŋ ni nyuna mo, ni ma ye k'a nyuna koyne waato kaŋ dooro fun a gaa, a ga hanan mo.

⁵⁹This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.

⁵⁹ Woodin no ga ti asariya* jiraytaray doori se, d'a go bankaaray gaa, da feeji hamni wane wala lin wane, da jarsa ra no wala soofo ra no, wala hay fo kaŋ i te da kuuru, zama i ma ci hal a ga hanan wala a ga ziibi.»
