1The Lord gave Moses the following regulations
2for the people of Israel. For seven days after a woman gives birth to a son, she is ritually unclean, as she is during her monthly period.
3On the eighth day, the child shall be circumcised.[#Gn 17.12; Lk 2.21]
4Then it will be thirty-three more days until she is ritually clean from her loss of blood; she must not touch anything that is holy or enter the sacred Tent until the time of her purification is completed.
5For fourteen days after a woman gives birth to a daughter, she is ritually unclean, as she is during her monthly period. Then it will be sixty-six more days until she is ritually clean from her loss of blood.
6When the time of her purification is completed, whether for a son or daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the entrance of the Tent of the Lord 's presence a one-year-old lamb for a burnt offering and a pigeon or a dove for a sin offering.
7The priest shall present her offering to the Lord and perform the ritual to take away her impurity, and she will be ritually clean. This, then, is what a woman must do after giving birth.
8If the woman cannot afford a lamb, she shall bring two doves or two pigeons, one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering, and the priest shall perform the ritual to take away her impurity, and she will be ritually clean.[#Lk 2.24]
