Lev 12
1
And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
2
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a woman conceive seed, and bear a man-child,
then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity of her sickness
shall she be unclean.
3
And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4
And she shall continue in the blood of [her] purifying three and thirty days; she
shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her
purifying be fulfilled.
5
But if she bear a maid-child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her impurity;
and she shall continue in the blood of [her] purifying threescore and six days.
6
And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she
shall bring a lamb a year old for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove,
for a sin-offering, to the door of the tent of meeting, to the priest:
7
and he shall offer it before YHWH, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed
from the fountain of her blood. This is the law for her that bears, whether a male
or a female.
8
And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or
two young pigeons; the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering:
and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
