Leviticus 15

1 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

1 El Señor habló a Moisés y a Aarón para darles más instrucciones para el pueblo.

2 “Say to the Israelites, ‘When any man has a bodily discharge, the discharge is unclean.

2 Les dijo: «El hombre que tenga una infección en el pene, es ritualmente impuro,

3 This uncleanness is from his discharge, whether his body allows the discharge to flow or blocks it. So his discharge will bring about uncleanness.

3 ya sea que la infección de su pene supure o no.

4 Any bed on which the man with the discharge lies will be unclean, and any furniture on which he sits will be unclean.

4 »La cama en que duerma o cualquier lugar en que se siente quedará contaminado,

5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

5 y cualquiera que toque su cama quedará ritualmente impuro hasta el anochecer, y tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse.

6 Whoever sits on furniture on which the man with the discharge was sitting must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

6 La persona que se siente donde el hombre con flujo se haya sentado quedará ceremonialmente impura hasta la tarde, tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse.

7 Whoever touches the body of the man with a discharge must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

7 Lo mismo se aplica para quien toque al afectado.

8 If the man with the discharge spits on one who is clean, that person must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

8 Si este hombre escupe sobre alguna persona, esta queda impura hasta la noche y tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse.

9 Any saddle on which the man with the discharge rides will be unclean.

9 Toda silla en que cabalgue el que padece de flujo queda impura,

10 Whoever touches anything that was under him will be unclean until evening, and whoever carries such things must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

10 y cualquiera que toque o lleve alguna cosa que haya estado debajo del afectado quedará impuro hasta la tarde, y tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse.

11 If the man with the discharge touches anyone without first rinsing his hands with water, the one who was touched must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

11 Si el impuro toca la mano de alguien, sin haberse lavado las manos antes, la persona que toque tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse, y quedará impura hasta la noche.

12 Any clay pot that the man with the discharge touches must be broken, and any wooden utensil must be rinsed with water.

12 Si el hombre toca alguna vasija de barro esta deberá romperse, y si toca utensilios de madera, deberán lavarse con agua.

13 When the man has been cleansed from his discharge, he must count off seven days for his cleansing, wash his clothes, and bathe himself in fresh water, and he shall be clean.

13 »Cuando haya cesado la supuración, el hombre iniciará una ceremonia de purificación que durará siete días. Primero lavará su ropa y se bañará con agua de manantial.

14 On the eighth day he is to take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, come before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the priest.

14 Al octavo día tomará dos tórtolas o dos pichones de paloma y se presentará delante del Señor, a la entrada del santuario, y se los entregará al sacerdote.

15 The priest is to sacrifice them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for the man before the LORD because of his discharge.

15 El sacerdote los ofrecerá allí, uno como ofrenda por el pecado y el otro en holocausto. De esta manera el sacerdote hará expiación delante del Señor por el hombre que haya padecido de flujo.

16 When a man has an emission of semen, he must bathe his whole body with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

16 »Cuando el hombre tenga una emisión de semen se bañará completamente y quedará impuro hasta la noche.

17 Any clothing or leather on which there is an emission of semen must be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until evening.

17 La ropa de vestir o de cama que haya sido manchada por el semen deberá lavarse y quedará impura hasta la noche.

18 If a man lies with a woman and there is an emission of semen, both must bathe with water, and they will remain unclean until evening.

18 Después de la relación conyugal, la mujer y el hombre deberán bañarse y quedarán ritualmente impuros hasta la noche siguiente.

19 When a woman has a discharge consisting of blood from her body, she will be unclean due to her menstruation for seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean until evening.

19 »Cuando una mujer tenga su flujo menstrual quedará ritualmente impura los siete días siguientes al término de su menstruación. Todo el que la toque durante ese tiempo quedará impuro hasta la noche.

20 Anything on which she lies or sits during her menstruation will be unclean,

20 El lugar en que la mujer se acueste o se siente durante el tiempo de su impureza, quedará impuro.

21 and anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

21–23 Cualquiera que toque su cama o su asiento deberá lavarse la ropa, y bañarse, y quedará impuro hasta la noche.

22 Whoever touches any furniture on which she was sitting must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

23 And whether it is a bed or furniture on which she was sitting, whoever touches it will be unclean until evening.

24 If a man lies with her and her menstrual flow touches him, he will be unclean for seven days, and any bed on which he lies will become unclean.

24 El hombre que tenga relaciones con ella durante este tiempo, quedará ritualmente impuro durante siete días, y la cama en que se acueste quedará impura.

25 When a woman has a discharge of her blood for many days at a time other than her menstrual period, or if it continues beyond her period, she will be unclean all the days of her unclean discharge, just as she is during the days of her menstruation.

25 »Si el flujo menstrual se prolonga más allá de lo normal u ocurre en alguna fecha imprevista del mes, se aplicará la misma regla anterior,

26 Any bed on which she lies or any furniture on which she sits during the days of her discharge will be unclean, like her bed during her menstrual period.

26 de modo que la cama en que ella se acueste quedará impura, como habría ocurrido durante su período menstrual ordinario, y el asiento que ocupe quedará también impuro.

27 Anyone who touches these things will be unclean; he must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

27 Si alguien toca su cama o su asiento quedará impuro y tendrá que lavar su ropa y bañarse, y su impureza durará hasta la noche.

28 When a woman is cleansed of her discharge, she must count off seven days, and after that she will be ceremonially clean.

28 »Después de que cese su flujo, contará siete días para poder considerarse pura.

29 On the eighth day she is to take two turtledoves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

29 Al octavo día tomará dos tórtolas o dos pichones de paloma y los llevará al sacerdote, a la entrada del santuario.

30 The priest is to sacrifice one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for her before the LORD for her unclean discharge.

30 Entonces el sacerdote presentará un ave como ofrenda por el pecado y la otra como holocausto. Así hará expiación por ella delante del Señor a causa de su impureza menstrual.

31 You must keep the children of Israel separate from their uncleanness, so that they do not die by defiling My tabernacle, which is among them.

31 »De esta manera purificarán al pueblo de Israel, para que no mueran al contaminar mi santuario que está en medio de ellos.

32 This is the law of him who has a discharge, of the man who has an emission of semen whereby he is unclean,

32 »Esta es, pues, la ley para el hombre que está ritualmente impuro por una enfermedad genital o por una emisión seminal,

33 of a woman in her menstrual period, of any male or female who has a discharge, and of a man who lies with an unclean woman.’”

33 y para la mujer que está impura por su período menstrual, y para cualquiera que tenga relaciones con una mujer mientras dura su período de impureza».
