Leviticus Chapter 12 (NASB)
1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying: ‘When a woman gives birth and delivers a male child, then she shall be unclean for seven days; as she is in the days of her menstruation, she shall be unclean.
3 Then on the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4 And she shall stay at home in her condition of [131]blood purification for thirty-three days; she shall not touch any consecrated thing, nor enter the sanctuary until the days of her purification are completed.
5 But if she gives birth to a female child, then she shall be unclean for two weeks, as in her menstruation; and she shall stay at home in her condition of [132]blood purification for sixty-six days.
6 ‘When the days of her purification are completed, for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the doorway of the tent of meeting a one-year-old lamb as a burnt offering and a young pigeon or a turtledove as a [133]sin offering.
7 Then he shall offer it before the LORD and make atonement for her, and she shall be cleansed from the [134]flow of her blood. This is the law for her who gives birth to a child, whether a male or a female.
8 But if [135]she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves or two young doves, the one as a burnt offering and the other as a [136]sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be clean.’ ”
