Leviticus 12
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, A woman when she conceiveth seed and giveth birth to a male child, then shall she be unclean seven days, according to the days of her removal in her sickness shall she be unclean.
Tal til Israeliterne og sig: Naar en Kvinde bliver frugtsommelig og føder en Dreng, skal hun være uren i syv Dage; ligesom i den Tid hun har sin maanedlige Urenhed, skal hun være uren.
3 And, on the eighth day, shall the flesh of his foreskin be circumcised.
Paa den ottende Dag skal Drengen omskæres paa sin Forhud.
4 And, for thirty-three days, shall she continue in the blood of purification, —no hallowed thing, shall she touch, and, into the sanctuary, shall she not enter, until her days of purification are fulfilled.
Derefter skal hun holde sig hjemme i tre og tredive Dage, medens hun har sit Renselsesblod; hun maa ikke røre ved noget helligt eller komme til Helligdommen, før hendes Renselsestid er omme.
5 But if, a female child, she bear, then shall she be unclean two weeks as in her removal, —and, for sixty-six days, shall she continue in the blood of purification.
Føder hun derimod et Pigebarn, skal hun være uren i to Uger ligesom under sin maanedlige Urenhed; og derpaa skal hun holde sig hjemme i seks og tresindstyve Dage, medens hun har sit Renselsesblod.
6 And, when the days of her purification are fulfilled, whether for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring in a lamb, the choice of its year, as an ascending-sacrifice, and a young pigeon or a turtle-dove, as a sin-bearer, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, unto the priest;
Naar hendes Renselsestid er omme, skal hun, baade efter et Drengebarn og et Pigebarn, bringe et aargammelt Lam som Brændoffer og en Dueunge eller Turteldue som Syndoffer til Præsten ved Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang;
7 and he shall bring it near before Yahweh so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over her, and she shall be clean from her fountain of blood. This, is the law for her that hath given birth, to a male child or to a female.
og han skal frembære det for HERRENS Aasyn og skaffe hende Soning, saa hun bliver ren efter sit Blodtab. Det er Loven om en Kvinde, der føder, hvad enten det er en Dreng eller en Pige.
8 But, if her hand findeth not sufficiency for a lamb, then shall she take two turtle doves or two young pigeons, one for an ascending-sacrifice and one for a sin-bearer, —so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over her, and she shall be clean.
Men hvis hun ikke evner at give et Lam, skal hun tage to Turtelduer eller Dueunger, en til Brændoffer og en til Syndoffer, og Præsten skal skaffe hende Soning, saa hun bliver ren.
