Levitik 12
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
Yahweh said to Moses,
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 people of Israel, saying, 'If a woman conceives and gives birth to a male child, then she will be unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean during the days of her monthly period.
3 Nan uityèm jou a, chè ti pijon pitit gason an va vin sikonsi.
On the eighth day the flesh of a baby boy's foreskin must be circumcised.
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.
Then the mother's purification from her bleeding will continue for thirty-three days. She must not touch any holy thing or come into the tabernacle area until the days of her purification are finished.
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 gives birth to a female child, then she will be unclean for two weeks, as she is during her period. Then the mother's purification will continue for sixty-six days.
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.
When the days of her purification are finished, for a son or for a daughter, she must bring a one year old lamb as a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or dove as a sin offering, to the entrance of the tent of meeting, 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.
Then he will offer it before Yahweh and make atonement for her, and she will be cleansed from the flow of her blood. This is the law regarding a woman who gives birth to either a male or a female child.
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.’”
If she is not able to afford a lamb, then she must take two doves or two young pigeons, one as a burnt offering and the other as a sin offering, and the priest will make atonement for her; then she will be clean.'”
