< Leviticus 12 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya,
2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: A woman, if she has received the seed to bear a male, shall be unclean for seven days, just as in the days of separation due to menstruation.
“Nye ụmụ Izrel iwu ndị a sị ha, ‘Mgbe nwanyị tụụrụ ime mesịa mụọ nwa nwoke, ọ ga-abụ onye na-adịghị ọcha ụbọchị asaa, dịka o si adị mgbe ọ nọ nʼadịghị ọcha nke nsọ ya nʼoge a kara aka.
3 And on the eighth day, the little infant shall be circumcised.
Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ site nʼoge a mụrụ ya, a ga-ebi nwa nwoke ahụ ugwu.
4 Yet truly, she herself shall remain for thirty-three days in the blood of her purification. She shall not touch anything holy, nor shall she enter into the Sanctuary, until the days of her purification are completed.
Nʼime iri abalị atọ na atọ site nʼụbọchị nwanyị ahụ mụsịrị nwa ahụ, ọ ga-anọkwa na-adịghị ọcha nke ọbara gbara ya. Ọ gaghị emetụ ihe dị nsọ aka, maọbụ banye nʼime ebe nsọ, ruo mgbe ụbọchị ime ya ka ọ dị ọcha gasịrị.
5 But if she will bear a female, she shall be unclean for two weeks, according to the custom of her monthly flow, and she shall remain in the blood of her purification for sixty-six days.
Mgbe nwanyị dị ime mụrụ nwa nwanyị, ọ ga-abụ onye nʼadịghị ọcha iri ụbọchị na anọ, dịka o si adị mgbe ọ nọ na nsọ ya. Ọ ga-echere tutu iri ụbọchị isii agwụsịa, ime ya ka ọ dị ọcha.
6 And when the days of her purification have been completed, for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, a one-year-old lamb as a holocaust, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for sin, and she shall deliver them to the priest.
“‘Mgbe ụbọchị ịdị ọcha ya zuru, ma ọ mụrụ nwa nwoke maọbụ nwa nwanyị, ọ ga-ewetara onye nchụaja nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute otu nwa atụrụ gbara otu afọ maka onyinye aja nsure ọkụ, na otu nwa kpalakwukwu maọbụ otu nduru maka onyinye aja mmehie.
7 He shall offer them in the sight of the Lord, and he shall pray for her. And so she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for one who bears a male or a female.
Onye nchụaja ga-anarakwa ha chee ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, chụọrọ ya aja ikpuchi mmehie. Mgbe ahụ ka ọ ga-adị ọcha site nʼịsọ ọbara ya. “‘Nke a bụ usoro iwu dịịrị nwanyị ọbụla mụrụ nwa nwoke, maọbụ nwa nwanyị.
8 And if her hand has not obtained or been able to offer a lamb, she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons: one as a holocaust, and the other for sin. And the priest shall pray for her, and so she shall be cleansed.
Ọ bụrụ na aka erughị ya iweta nwa atụrụ, ọ ga-eweta ụmụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, maọbụ ụmụ nduru abụọ. Otu ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja mmehie. Onye nchụaja ga-ewere ha chụọrọ ya aja ikpuchi mmehie, ka ọ dịkwa ọcha ọzọ.’”
