WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
1 Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés y á Aarón, diciendo:
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 The man in whose skin or flesh shalt arise a different colour or a blister, or as it were something shining, that is, the stroke of the leprosy, shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or any one of his sons.
2 Cuando el hombre tuviere en la piel de su carne hinchazón, ó postilla, ó mancha blanca, y hubiere en la piel de su carne como llaga de lepra, será traído á Aarón el sacerdote, ó á uno de los sacerdotes sus hijos:
2 “When a man shall have a swelling 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.
3 And if he see the leprosy in his skin, and the hair turned white, and the place where the leprosy appears lower than the skin and the rest of the flesh: it is the stroke of the leprosy, and upon his judgment he shall be separated.
3 Y el sacerdote mirará la llaga en la piel de la carne: si el pelo en la llaga se ha vuelto blanco, y pareciere la llaga más hundida que la tez de la carne, llaga de lepra es; y el sacerdote le reconocerá, y le dará por inmundo.
3 The priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body. 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; so the priest shall examine him and pronounce him unclean.
4 But if there be a shining whiteness in the skin, and not lower than the other flesh, and the hair be of the former colour, the priest shall shut him up seven days.
4 Y si en la piel de su carne hubiere mancha blanca, pero no pareciere más hundida que la tez, ni su pelo se hubiere vuelto blanco, entonces el sacerdote encerrará al llagado por siete días;
4 If 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.
5 And the seventh day he shall look on him: and if the leprosy be grown no farther, and hath not spread itself in the skin, he shall shut him up again other seven days.
5 Y al séptimo día el sacerdote lo mirará; y si la llaga á su parecer se hubiere estancado, no habiéndose extendido en la piel, entonces el sacerdote le volverá á encerrar por otros siete días.
5 The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. 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.
6 And on the seventh day, he shall look on him: if the leprosy be somewhat obscure, and not spread in the skin, he shall declare him clean, because it is but a scab: and the man shall wash his clothes, and shall be clean.
6 Y al séptimo día el sacerdote le reconocerá de nuevo; y si parece haberse oscurecido la llaga, y que no ha cundido en la piel, entonces el sacerdote lo dará por limpio: era postilla; y lavará sus vestidos, y será limpio.
6 The priest shall examine him again on the seventh day. 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.
7 But if the leprosy grow again, after he was seen by the priest and restored to cleanness, he shall be brought to him,
7 Mas si hubiere ido creciendo la postilla en la piel, después que fué mostrado al sacerdote para ser limpio, será visto otra vez del sacerdote:
7 But 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.
8 And shall be condemned of uncleanness.
8 Y si reconociéndolo el sacerdote, ve que la postilla ha crecido en la piel, el sacerdote lo dará por inmundo: es lepra.
8 The priest shall examine him; and behold, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy.
9 If the stroke of the leprosy be in a man, he shall be brought to the priest,
9 Cuando hubiere llaga de lepra en el hombre, será traído al sacerdote;
9 “When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest;
10 And he shall view him. And when there shall be a white colour in the skin, and it shall have changed the look of the hair, and the living flesh itself shall appear:
10 Y el sacerdote mirará, y si pareciere tumor blanco en la piel, el cual haya mudado el color del pelo, y se descubre asimismo la carne viva,
10 and the priest shall examine him. Behold, if there is a white swelling in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling,
11 It shall be judged an inveterate leprosy, and grown into the skin. The priest therefore shall declare him unclean, and shall not shut him up, because he is evidently unclean.
11 Lepra es envejecida en la piel de su carne; y le dará por inmundo el sacerdote, y no le encerrará, porque es inmundo.
11 it 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 already unclean.
12 But if the leprosy spring out running about in the skin, and cover all the skin from the head to the feet, whatsoever falleth under the sight of the eyes,
12 Mas si brotare la lepra cundiendo por el cutis, y ella cubriere toda la piel del llagado desde su cabeza hasta sus pies, á toda vista de ojos del sacerdote;
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,
13 The priest shall view him, and shall judge that the leprosy which he has is very clean: because it is all turned into whiteness, and therefore the man shall be clean.
13 Entonces el sacerdote le reconocerá; y si la lepra hubiere cubierto toda su carne, dará por limpio al llagado: hase vuelto toda ella blanca; y él es limpio.
13 then the priest shall examine him. 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.
14 But when the live flesh shall appear in him,
14 Mas el día que apareciere en él la carne viva, será inmundo.
14 But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
15 Then by the judgment of the priest he shall be defiled, and shall be reckoned among the unclean: for live flesh, if it be spotted with leprosy, is unclean.
15 Y el sacerdote mirará la carne viva, y lo dará por inmundo. Es inmunda la carne viva: es lepra.
15 The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy.
16 And if again it be turned into whiteness, and cover all the man,
16 Mas cuando la carne viva se mudare y volviere blanca, entonces vendrá al sacerdote;
16 Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest.
17 The priest shall view him, and shall judge him to be clean.
17 Y el sacerdote mirará, y si la llaga se hubiere vuelto blanca, el sacerdote dará por limpio [al que tenía] la llaga, y será limpio.
17 The priest shall examine him. Behold, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean.
18 When also there has been an ulcer in the flesh and the skin, and it has been healed,
18 Y cuando en la carne, en su piel, hubiere apostema, y se sanare,
18 “When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed,
19 And in the place of the ulcer, there appeareth a white scar, or somewhat red, the man shall be brought to the priest:
19 Y sucediere en el lugar de la apostema tumor blanco, ó mancha blanca embermejecida, será mostrado al sacerdote:
19 and in the place of the boil there is a white swelling, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest.
20 And when he shall see the place of the leprosy lower than the other flesh, and the hair turned white, he shall declare him unclean, for the plague of leprosy is broken out in the ulcer.
20 Y el sacerdote mirará; y si pareciere estar más baja que su piel, y su pelo se hubiere vuelto blanco, darálo el sacerdote por inmundo: es llaga de lepra que se originó en la apostema.
20 The priest shall examine it. Behold, if its appearance is deeper 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.
21 But if the hair be of the former colour, and the scar somewhat obscure, and be not lower than the flesh that is near it, he shall shut him up seven days.
21 Y si el sacerdote la considerare, y no pareciere en ella pelo blanco, ni estuviere más baja que la piel, sino oscura, entonces el sacerdote lo encerrará por siete días:
21 But 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.
22 And if it spread, he shall judge him to have the leprosy:
22 Y si se fuere extendiendo por la piel, entonces el sacerdote lo dará por inmundo: es llaga.
22 If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague.
23 But if it stay in its place, it is but the scar of an ulcer, and the man shall be clean.
23 Empero si la mancha blanca se estuviere en su lugar, que no haya cundido, es la costra de la apostema; y el sacerdote lo dará por limpio.
23 But 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.
24 The flesh also and skin that hath been burnt, and after it is healed hath a white or a red scar,
24 Asimismo cuando la carne tuviere en su piel quemadura de fuego, y hubiere en lo sanado del fuego mancha blanquecina, bermejiza ó blanca,
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,
25 The priest shall view it, and if he see it turned white, and the place thereof is lower than the other skin: he shall declare him unclean, because the evil of leprosy is broken out in the scar.
25 El sacerdote la mirará; y si el pelo se hubiere vuelto blanco en la mancha, y pareciere estar más hundida que la piel, es lepra que salió en la quemadura; y el sacerdote declarará al sujeto inmundo, por ser llaga de lepra.
25 then 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.
26 But if the colour of the hair be not changed, nor the blemish lower than the other flesh, and the appearance of the leprosy be somewhat obscure, he shall shut him up seven days,
26 Mas si el sacerdote la mirare, y no pareciere en la mancha pelo blanco, ni estuviere más baja que la tez, sino que está oscura, le encerrará el sacerdote por siete días;
26 But if the priest examines it, and behold, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn’t deeper than the skin, but has faded, then the priest shall isolate him seven days.
27 And on the seventh day he shall view him: if the leprosy be grown farther in the skin, he shall declare him unclean.
27 Y al séptimo día el sacerdote la reconocerá: si se hubiere ido extendiendo por la piel, el sacerdote lo dará por inmundo: es llaga de lepra.
27 The 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.
28 But if the whiteness stay in its place, and be not very clear, it is the sore of a burning, and therefore he shall be cleansed, because it is only the scar of a burning.
28 Empero si la mancha se estuviere en su lugar, y no se hubiere extendido en la piel, sino que está oscura, hinchazón es de la quemadura: darálo el sacerdote por limpio; que señal de la quemadura es.
28 If 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.
29 If the leprosy break out in the head or the beard of a man or woman, the Priest shall see them,
29 Y al hombre ó mujer que le saliere llaga en la cabeza, ó en la barba,
29 “When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard,
30 And if the place be lower than the other flesh, and the hair yellow, and thinner than usual: he shall declare them unclean, because it is the leprosy of the head and the beard;
30 El sacerdote mirará la llaga; y si pareciere estar más profunda que la tez, y el pelo en ella fuera rubio [y] adelgazado, entonces el sacerdote lo dará por inmundo: es tiña, es lepra de la cabeza ó de la barba.
30 then 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.
31 But if he perceive the place of the spot is equal with the flesh that is near it, and the hair black: he shall shut him up seven days,
31 Mas cuando el sacerdote hubiere mirado la llaga de la tiña, y no pareciere estar más profunda que la tez, ni fuere en ella pelo negro, el sacerdote encerrará al llagado de la tiña por siete días:
31 If 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 the person infected with itching seven days.
32 And on the seventh day he shall look upon it. If the spot be not grown, and the hair keep its colour, and the place of the blemish be even with the other flesh:
32 Y al séptimo día el sacerdote mirará la llaga: y si la tiña no pareciere haberse extendido, ni hubiere en ella pelo rubio, ni pareciere la tiña más profunda que la tez,
32 On 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,
33 The man shall be shaven all but the place of the spot, and he shall be shut up other seven days:
33 Entonces lo trasquilarán, mas no trasquilarán el lugar de la tiña: y encerrará el sacerdote [al que tiene] la tiña por otros siete días.
33 then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch. Then the priest shall isolate the one who has the itch seven more days.
34 If on the seventh day the evil seem to have stayed in its place, and not lower than the other flesh, he shall cleanse him, and his clothes being washed he shall be clean.
34 Y al séptimo día mirará el sacerdote la tiña; y si la tiña no hubiere cundido en la piel, ni pareciere estar más profunda que la tez, el sacerdote lo dará por limpio; y lavará sus vestidos, y será limpio.
34 On 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.
35 But if after his cleansing the spot spread again in the skin,
35 Empero si la tiña se hubiere ido extendiendo en la piel después de su purificación,
35 But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing,
36 He shall seek no more whether the hair be turned yellow, because he is evidently unclean.
36 Entonces el sacerdote la mirará; y si la tiña hubiere cundido en la piel, no busque el sacerdote el pelo rubio, es inmundo.
36 then 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.
37 But if the spot be stayed, and the hair be black, let him know that the man is healed, and let him confidently pronounce him clean.
37 Mas si le pareciere que la tiña está detenida, y que ha salido en ella el pelo negro, la tiña está sanada; él está limpio, y por limpio lo dará el sacerdote.
37 But if in his eyes the itch is arrested and black hair has grown in it, then the itch is healed. He is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 If a whiteness appear in the skin of a man or a woman,
38 Asimismo el hombre ó mujer, cuando en la piel de su carne tuviere manchas, manchas blancas,
38 “When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots,
39 The priest shall view them. If he find that a darkish whiteness shineth in the skin, let him know that it is not the leprosy, but a white blemish, and that the man is clean.
39 El sacerdote mirará: y si en la piel de su carne parecieren manchas blancas algo oscurecidas, es empeine que brotó en la piel, está limpia la persona.
39 then the priest shall examine them. 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.
40 The man whose hair falleth off from his head, he is bald and clean:
40 Y el hombre, cuando se le pelare la cabeza, es calvo, [mas] limpio.
40 “If a man’s hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean.
41 And if the hair fall from his forehead, he is bald before and clean.
41 Y si á la parte de su rostro se le pelare la cabeza, es calvo por delante, [pero] limpio.
41 If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, his forehead is bald. He is clean.
42 But if in the bald head or in the bald forehead there be risen a white or reddish colour,
42 Mas cuando en la calva ó en la antecalva hubiere llaga blanca rojiza, lepra es que brota en su calva ó en su antecalva.
42 But if a reddish-white plague is in the bald head or the bald forehead, it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head or his bald forehead.
43 And the priest perceive this, he shall condemn him undoubtedly of leprosy which is risen in the bald part.
43 Entonces el sacerdote lo mirará, y si pareciere la hinchazón de la llaga blanca rojiza en su calva ó en su antecalva, como el parecer de la lepra de la tez de la carne,
43 Then the priest shall examine him. Behold, if the swelling 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 body,
44 Now whosoever shall be defiled with the leprosy, and is separated by the judgment of the priest,
44 Leproso es, es inmundo; el sacerdote lo dará luego por inmundo; en su cabeza tiene su llaga.
44 he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head.
45 Shall have his clothes hanging loose, his head bare, his mouth covered with a cloth, and he shall cry out that he is defiled and unclean.
45 Y el leproso en quien hubiere llaga, sus vestidos serán deshechos y su cabeza descubierta, y embozado pregonará: ¡Inmundo! ¡inmundo!
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!’
46 All the time that he is a leper and unclean, he shall dwell alone without the camp.
46 Todo el tiempo que la llaga estuviere en él, será inmundo; estará impuro: habitará solo; fuera del real será su morada.
46 All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. His dwelling shall be outside of the camp.
47 A woollen or linen garment that shall have the leprosy
47 Y cuando en el vestido hubiere plaga de lepra, en vestido de lana, ó en vestido de lino;
47 “The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment;
48 In the warp, and the woof, or a skin. or whatsoever is made of a skin,
48 O en estambre ó en trama, de lino ó de lana, ó en piel, ó en cualquiera obra de piel;
48 whether it is in warp or woof; of linen or of wool; whether in leather, or in anything made of leather;
49 If it be infected with a white or red spot, it shall be accounted the leprosy, and shall be shewn to the priest.
49 Y que la plaga sea verde, ó bermeja, en vestido ó en piel, ó en estambre ó en trama, ó en cualquiera obra de piel; plaga es de lepra, y se ha de mostrar al sacerdote.
49 if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the leather, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of leather; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest.
50 And he shall look upon it and shall shut it up seven days:
50 Y el sacerdote mirará la plaga, y encerrará la cosa plagada por siete días.
50 The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days.
51 And on the seventh day when he looketh on it again, if he find that it if grown, it is a Axed leprosy: he shall judge the garment unclean, and every thing wherein it shall be found:
51 Y al séptimo día mirará la plaga: y si hubiere cundido la plaga en el vestido, ó estambre, ó en la trama, ó en piel, ó en cualquiera obra que se hace de pieles, lepra roedora es la plaga; inmunda será.
51 He 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.
52 And therefore it shall be burnt with fire.
52 Será quemado el vestido, ó estambre ó trama, de lana ó de lino, ó cualquiera obra de pieles en que hubiere tal plaga; porque lepra roedora es: al fuego será quemada.
52 He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of leather, in which the plague is, for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire.
53 But if he see that it is not grown,
53 Y si el sacerdote mirare, y no pareciere que la plaga se haya extendido en el vestido, ó estambre, ó en la trama, ó en cualquiera obra de pieles;
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;
54 He shall give orders, and they shall wash that part wherein the leprosy is, and he shall shut it up other seven days.
54 Entonces el sacerdote mandará que laven donde está la plaga, y lo encerrará otra vez por siete días.
54 then the priest shall command that they wash the thing that the plague is in, and he shall isolate it seven more days.
55 And when he shall see that the former colour is not returned, nor yet the leprosy spread, he shall judge it unclean, and shall burn it with fire, for the leprosy has taken hold of the outside of the garment, or through the whole.
55 Y el sacerdote mirará después que la plaga fuere lavada; y si pareciere que la plaga no ha mudado su aspecto, bien que no haya cundido la plaga, inmunda es; la quemarás al fuego; corrosión es penetrante, esté lo raído en la haz ó en el revés de aquella cosa.
55 Then 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.
56 But if the place of the leprosy be somewhat dark, after the garment is washed, he shall tear it off, and divide it from that which is sound.
56 Mas si el sacerdote la viere, y pareciere que la plaga se ha oscurecido después que fué lavada, la cortará del vestido, ó de la piel, ó del estambre, ó de la trama.
56 If 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;
57 And if after this there appear in those places that before were without spot, a flying and wandering leprosy: it must be burnt with fire.
57 Y si apareciere más en el vestido, ó estambre, ó trama, ó en cualquiera cosa de pieles, reverdeciendo en ella, quemarás al fuego aquello donde estuviere la plaga.
57 and 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 what the plague is in with fire.
58 If it cease, he shall wash with water the parts that are pure, the second time, and they shall be clean.
58 Empero el vestido, ó estambre, ó trama, ó cualquiera cosa de piel que lavares, y que se le quitare la plaga, lavarse ha segunda vez, y entonces será limpia.
58 The 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.”
59 This is the law touching the leprosy of any woollen or linen garment, either in the warp or woof, or any thing of skins, how it ought to be cleansed, or pronounced unclean.
59 Esta es la ley de la plaga de la lepra del vestido de lana ó de lino, ó del estambre, ó de la trama, ó de cualquiera cosa de piel, para que sea dada por limpia ó por inmunda.
59 This 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.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 13:25 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm LXXIII)

    … been done concerning the rod, God gave a second sign: "thrust," He saith, "thine hand into thy bosom, and he thrust it: draw it forth, and he drew it forth: and it was found white," that is, unclean. For whiteness on the skin is leprosy, not fairness of complexion.
