Leviticus 12  Revised Geneva Translation

12 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

² “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘When a woman has brought forth seed, and borne a male child, she shall be unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean when she is isolated for her disease.

³ ‘And on the eighth day, the foreskin of the flesh shall be circumcised.

⁴ ‘And she shall continue for 33 days in the blood of her purifying. She shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the Sanctuary, until the time of her purifying is complete.

⁵ ‘But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean for two weeks (as when she has her menstruation). And she shall continue in the blood of her purifying for 36 days.

⁶ ‘Now when the days of her purifying are completed (whether it be for a son or for a daughter) she shall bring a lamb of one year old to the Priest for a Burnt Offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a Sin Offering, to the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation,

⁷ ‘who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her. So shall she be purged of the issue of her blood. This is the law for she who has borne a male or female.

⁸ ‘But if she is not able to bring a lamb, she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, the one for a Burnt Offering and the other for a Sin Offering. And the Priest shall make an atonement for her. So shall she be clean.’”
