Levitik 12

1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “Pale avèk fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Lè yon fanm ansent e vin fè yon pitit gason, alò, li va pa pwòp pandan sèt jou. Tankou nan jou règ li yo, li va pa pwòp.

Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whatsoever woman shall have conceived and born a male child shall be unclean seven days, she shall be unclean according to the days of separation for her monthly courses.

3 Nan uityèm jou a, chè ti pijon pitit gason an va vin sikonsi.

And on the eighth day she shall circumcise the flesh of his foreskin.

4 Alò, manman li va rete nan pirifikasyon san li pandan trant-twa jou. Li pa pou touche okenn bagay ki konsakre, ni antre nan sanktyè a jiskaske jou pirifikasyon li yo fin akonpli.

And for thirty-three days she shall continue in her unclean blood; she shall touch nothing holy, and shall not enter the sanctuary, until the days of her purification be fulfilled.

5 Men si li pote yon pitit fi, li va pa pwòp pandan de semèn, tankou nan lè règ li. Konsa, li va rete nan san pirifikasyon li an pandan swasann-si jou.

But if she should have born a female child, then she shall be unclean twice seven days, according to the time of her monthly courses; and for sixty-six days shall she remain in her unclean blood.

6 “‘Lè jou pirifikasyon li yo fin akonpli, pou yon fis, oswa yon fi, li va pote kote prèt la nan pòtay tant asanble a, yon jenn mouton sou laj en an kòm yon ofrann brile, ak yon jenn pijon oswa toutrèl kòm yon ofrann peche.

And when the days of her purification shall have been fulfilled for a son or a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of a year old without blemish for a whole burnt offering, and a young pigeon or turtle-dove for a sin-offering to the door of the tabernacle of witness, to the priest.

7 Prèt la, va ofri li devan SENYÈ a. Li va fè ekspiyasyon pou fi a, e konsa, li va netwaye de flo san li an. “‘Sa se lalwa pou sila ki pote pitit yo, kit li mal, kit li femèl.

And he shall present it before the Lord, and the priest shall make atonement for her, and shall purge her from the fountain of her blood; this is the law of her who bears a male or a female.

8 Men si li pa gen mwayen achte yon jenn mouton, alò, li va pote de toutrèl, oswa de jenn pijon, youn pou ofrann brile a, e lòt la pou ofrann peche a. Konsa, prèt la va fè ekspiyasyon pou li e li va vin pwòp.’”

And if she can’t afford a lamb, then shall she take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a whole burnt offering, and one for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be purified.
