God spoke to Moses and Aaron, telling them

Vayedaber Adonay el-Moshe ve’el-Aharon lemor.

to speak to the Israelites and tell them [as follows]: When a man has a discharge from his organ, this discharge can render him unclean.

Daberu el-beney Yisra’el va’amartem alehem ish ish ki yihyeh zav mibesaro zovo tame hu.

15:3
He becomes unclean through a discharge if his organ dribbles with the discharge or if he has [some of it] stuck to his organ. This makes him unclean [so that]

Vezot tihyeh tum’ato bezovo rar besaro et-zovo o-hechtim besaro mizovo tum’ato hi.

15:4
any bed upon which the man with the discharge lies is unclean, and any object upon which he sits is [also] unclean.

Kol-hamishkav asher yishkav alav hazav yitma vechol-hakeli asher yeshev alav yitma.

15:5
Any person who touches [the man’s] bed must immerse his clothing and his body in a mikvah and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Ve’ish asher yiga bemishkavo yechabes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

15:6
[Similarly,] anyone who sits on an object upon which the man with a discharge has been sitting must [also] immerse his clothing and his body in a mikvah, and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Vehayoshev al-hakli asher-yeshev alav hazav yechabes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

15:7
If anyone touches the body of the person with the discharge, he must [similarly] immerse his clothing and his body, and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Vehanogea bivesar hazav yechabes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

15:8
If the saliva of the man with a discharge comes in contact with a ritually clean person, [the latter] must immerse his clothing and his body, and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Vechi-yarok hazav batahor vechibes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

15:9
Every saddle upon which the person with the discharge rides shall be unclean.

Vechol-hamerkav asher yirkav alav hazav yitma.

15:10
[Thus] anyone who touches something that has been under [the man with a discharge] shall be unclean until evening. One who lifts [such an object] must immerse both his clothing and his body, and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Vechol-hanogea bechol asher yihyeh tachtav yitma ad-ha’arev vehanose otam yechabes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

15:11
If anyone touches a man with a discharge who has not immersed [even] his hands in a mikvah, then [that person] must immerse his clothing and his body in a mikvah, and [then] remain unclean until evening.

Vechol-asher yiga bo hazav veyadav lo-shataf bamayim vechibes begadav verachats bamayim vetame ad-ha’arev.

When the man is healed of his discharge, he must count seven days for his purification. He shall then immerse his clothing and his body in a mikvah of running spring water.

15:14
On the eighth day, he shall take two turtle doves or two young common doves, and coming before God to the Communion Tent entrance, he shall give them to the priest.

Uvayom hashmini yikach lo shtey torim o sheney beney yonah uva lifney Adonay el-petach ohel-mo’ed unetanam el-hakohen.

15:15
The priest shall prepare one [bird] as a sin offering, and one as a burnt offering. The priest shall thus make atonement before God for the person, [thus purifying him] of his discharge.

Ve’asah otam hakohen echad chatat veha’echad olah vechiper alav hakohen lifney Adonay mizovo.
