Leviticus 12
1AGAIN the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2Speak to the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a woman hath conceived, and brought forth a male, she shall be unclean seven days. During her days of separation for her lying in she shall be unclean.
3And on the eighth day she shall circumcise the flesh of his foreskin,
4and continue thirty-three days in her impurity. She shall not touch anything that is hallowed, nor come to the sanctuary, until the days of her purification be completed.
5But if she hath brought forth a female, she shall be unclean twice seven days for her lying in, and shall continue sixty-six days in her impurity.
6And when the days of her purification are completed, either for a son or a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year, without blemish, for a whole burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, to the priest,
7and present it before the Lord. And the priest shall make atonement for her, and purify her from the issue of her blood. This is the law touching her who beareth a male or a female child.
8But if she be not in circumstances to furnish a lamb, she shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, one for a whole burnt offering, and one for a sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her and she shall be cleansed.
