レビ記 12

1 ヱホバまたモーセに告て曰たまはく

The LORD spoke to 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 to the children of Israel, saying, 'If a woman conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she shall be unclean.

3 また第八日に至らばその嬰の前の皮を割べし

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

She shall continue in the blood of purification thirty-three days. She shall not touch any holy thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed.

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 bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her period; and she shall continue in the blood of purification sixty-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

"'When the days of her purification are completed, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the door of the Tent of Meeting, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering:

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 who bears, 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

If she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves, 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.'"
