1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Tell the children of Israel: When a woman conceives and gives birth to a male child, she shall be unclean for seven days; as in the days of her monthly impurity, so shall she be unclean.
3 On the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin is to be circumcised.
4 She shall then remain thirty-three days in the blood of her purification. She must not touch any holy thing or enter the sanctuary until the days of her purification are fulfilled.
5 If she gives birth to a female child, she shall be unclean for two weeks, as in her impurity, and she shall remain sixty-six days in the blood of her purification.
6 "When the days of her purification are fulfilled, for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the entrance of the tent of meeting a yearling lamb for a burnt offering and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin offering.
7 He shall present it before the LORD and make atonement for her, and she will be clean from her flow of blood. This is the law for the woman who gives birth, whether to a male or to a female.
8 If her means do not reach to a lamb, she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a burnt offering and one for a sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be clean."
