הכל מיטמאין (all are made unclean) – and even a minor. For you might have thought that (Leviticus 13:44): “The man is leprous.”/"איש-צרוע", it comes to teach us that, as it is written (Leviticus 13:2): “[When a person has] on the skin of his body.”

הכל כשרים לראות את הנגעים – and even though he is not an expert in them and in their names/designations, if a Sage is with him, he may examine, but on his own if he is not an expert in them and in their names/designations, he doesn’t examine the plagues.

שהטומאה והטהרה ביד כהן – an Israelite Sage examines the plagues and says to the Kohen, even though he is an imbecile/שוטה, “Say, ‘unclean/impure’” [or] “Say, “pure/clean’”.

בין איש אחד בין בשני אנשים – that there appeared two plagues on one person or on two people, a Kohen does not examine [both of] them at the same time, for the Kohen is not able to see well two plagues as [he sees] one.

ומסגירו – if he is locking up (i.e., isolating) a [presumed] leper for trial, such as through the four appearances of plagues (see Tractate Negaim, Chapter 1, Mishnah 1).

ומחליטו – if he is worthy for being declared a [certified] leper, such as through white hair or a half-healed (having only a thin covering).

ופוטרו – if he is below from four appearances [of plagues].

וחוזר לשני – after the second person [had plagues] that appeared prior to his isolating/shutting in the first or declaring him to be a certified leper.

אין מסגירים את המוסגר – and similarly, we also do not declare someone to be a certified leper who is in isolation/shut up. For if they isolated him with one plague and afterwards another plaque appeared to him after it was fit to isolate him or declare him to be a certified leper, he does not engage with him. For if he is isolated/shut up from the first [plague], there is nothing regarding the second plague, neither the designation of being locked up [pending the priest’s observation – see Leviticus 13:4] or from the designation of being declared a confirmed leper, until he will need him (i.e., the Kohen).

אבל בתחלה בסוף שבוע מסגיר ומסגיר – if at the beginning of the week, a second [plague] appeared prior to his being isolated/shut up for the first [plague], he shuts him up/isolates him over the first [plague] and shuts him up/isolates him over the second [plague]. And similarly, at the end of the first week, if the first [plague] remained unchanged, he shuts him up/isolates him and goes back and shuts him up/isolates him on the second plague.

מחליט ומחליט – he declares him a certified leper on the first [plague] and goes back and declares him a certified leper on the second [plague].

מסגיר ופוטר – he (i.e., the Kohen) isolates him/shuts him up on the first [plague] but releases him on the second [plague].

מחליט ופוטר – he declares him a certified leper on the first [plague] and releases him on the second [plague]. And the same law applies in the opposite direction, he (i.e., the Kohen) shuts him up/isolates him [for the first plague] and declares him to be a certified leper [for the second plague] or declares him to be a certified leper [for the first plague] and shuts him up/puts him in isolation for the second plague or releases him [for the first plague] and isolates him/shuts him up [for the second plague] or shuts him up/isolates him for the first plague and declares him to be a certified leper [for the second plague].

נותנין לו שבעת ימי המשתה – as it is written (Leviticus 13:14): “But as soon as ]un-discolored flesh] appears in it”/"וביום הראות בו [בשר חי]" since the All-Merciful (i.e., God) writes "ובהראות"/”as it appears”, what is "וביום"/as soon as? To inform you that there is a day that you examine and there is a day that you don’t examine.

עור הבשר – that appeared upon it one from the four appearances of plagues (see Tractate Negaim, Chapter 1, Mishnah 1).

בתחילה – when he is brought before the Kohen without locking up the leper for trial, he becomes defiled through white hair and through raw flesh. But regarding spreading of a leprous spot he does not become defiled until the end of the first week, or the end of the second week, or after the release at the end of the second week when it remained unchanged and he was released, if after this it spread, he (i.e., the Kohen) goes back and declares him a certified leper.

שלשה עשר יום – that the seventh day of the first week counts for here (i.e., the first week) and there (i.e., the second week).

השחין המכוה מטמאים בשבוע אחד – for the rest of the plagues have two locking-ups, but if it did not spread during the first week, and a white hair did not appear, he releases him. And the language of מיטמאין/made unclean/impure that it (i.e., the Mishnah) uses, this is what he (i.e., the Mishnah) said: When these two tokens/signs came at the end of one week, but if they didn’t come, he is pure/clean.

הנתקים (bald/blanched spot on the head or on the beard) – plagues that are on the head or on the beard are called נתקים.

בשער צהוב דק בתחלה (with thin golden hair at the beginning) – if at the beginning golden hair appeared on him, he (i.e., the Kohen) declares him to be a certified leper.

צהוב – similar to gold.

בסוף שבוע ראשון ובסוף שבוע שני – if at the end of the first week it spread or their appeared on him golden hair, he (i.e., the Kohen) declares him to be a certified leper. But if not, he isolates him/shuts him up, for the second [week], but if at the end of the second week it spreads, or golden hair appears, he (i.e., the Kohen) declares him to be a certified leper. But if not, he releases him. But if after the release, it spread, or golden hair appears, he (i.e., the Kohen) declares him to be a certified leper.

הקרחת והבדחת – further ahead in chapter 10 [Tractate Negaim, Mishnah 10], it (i.e., the Mishnah) explains what is leprous affection on the ack of the head and what is baldness on the forehead.

במחיה ובפסיון (with quick/raw flesh and spreading) – but with white hair, they do not defile, because no hair grows in them.

בירקרק ובאדמדם (pale-colored/greenish and reddish leprosy) – But this is what happens in clothing and houses as a sign/symbol of greenish or reddish defilement. But they don’t call above the sign of defilement for the four appearances of plagues that are in the skin of the body, because the four appearances that are in the skin of the body even if they remain unchanged several years, they (i.e., the Kohanim) do not declare someone to be a certified leper without white hair and without spreading and without a thin covering [of healing], but with clothing, when the greenish/pale-covered leprosy or reddish leprosy remained for two weeks even though it did not spread, it is written (Leviticus 13:55): “[And if, after the affected article has been washed, the priest sees that the affection has not changed color and that it has not spread, it is impure.] It shall be consumed in fire”/"באש תשרפנו" , for this reason, they call them with regard to clothing a sign of defilement. And similar with houses for three weeks, when the plague returns to like the way it was, either from greenish to reddish or from reddish to greenish, it is written (Leviticus 14:45): “The house shall be tone down/ונתץ את הבית,” as if it it spread. For this reason, we called them a sign of defilement.

לאחר הפטור – as for example, that it became faint, if it returned afterwards one burns it.

שהם שתעה עשר יום – the first and seventh [days] of the middle week count for before them and after them.

פחות משבוע אחד – such as boils and the burnt spot on the skin.

שלשה שבועות – as for example, plagues on houses.
