Leviticus 12
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.
