< レビ記 12 >
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 イスラエルの子孫に告て言へ婦女もし種をやどして男子を生ば七日汚るべし即ちその月の穢の日數ほど汚るるなり
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying: If a woman be delivered, and bear a man-child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity of her sickness shall she be unclean.
And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4 その婦女は尚その成潔の血に三十三日を歴べしその成潔の日の滿るまでは聖物にさはるべからず聖所にいるべからず
And she shall continue in the blood of purification three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purification be fulfilled.
5 若女子を生ば二七日汚るべし月の穢におけるがごとしまたその成潔の血に六十六日を經べきなり
But if she bear a maid-child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her impurity; and she shall continue in the blood of purification threescore and six days.
6 而してその男子あるひは女子につきての成潔の日滿なば燔祭の爲に當歳の羔羊を取り罪祭のために雛き鴿あるひは鳲鳩を取てこれを集會の幕屋の門に携へきたり祭司にいたるべし
And when the days of her purification are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove, for a sin-offering, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the priest.
7 祭司は之をヱホバの前にささげてその婦女のために贖罪をなすべし然せばその出血の穢潔まるべし是すなはち男子または女子を生る婦女にかかはるところの例なり
And he shall offer it before the LORD, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. This is the law for her that beareth, whether a male or a female.
8 その婦女もし羔羊にまで手の届かざる時は鳲鳩二羽か又は雛き鴿二羽を携へきたるべし是一は燔祭のため一は罪祭のためなり祭司これがために贖罪をなすべし然せば婦女は潔まるべし
And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons: the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
