“1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child:
then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the
separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean. 3 And in the eighth
day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. 4 And she shall then
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 separation: 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 of the first year for a burnt
offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest: 7 Who
shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her; and she
shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This [is] the law for her
that hath born a male or a female. 8 And if she be not able to bring a
lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one
for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest
shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.” (Le 12:1-8 AV)
