Levítico 12

1 Y habló el SEÑOR a Moisés, diciendo:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Habla a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: La mujer cuando concibiere y diere a luz varón, será inmunda siete días; conforme a los días que está separada por su menstruo, será inmunda.

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 Y al octavo día circuncidará la carne de su prepucio.

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

4 Mas ella permanecerá treinta y tres días en la sangre de su purgación; ninguna cosa santa tocará, ni vendrá al santuario, hasta que sean cumplidos los días de su purgación.

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 Y si diere a luz hembra será inmunda dos semanas, conforme a su separación, y sesenta y seis días estará purificándose de su sangre.

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 Y cuando los días de su purgación fueren cumplidos, por hijo o por hija, traerá un cordero de un año para holocausto, y un palomino o una tórtola para expiación, a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, al sacerdote;

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 y lo ofrecerá delante del SEÑOR, y la reconciliará, y será limpia del flujo de su sangre. Esta es la ley de la que diere a luz varón o hembra.

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 Y si no tiene lo suficiente para un cordero, tomará entonces dos tórtolas o dos palominos, uno para holocausto, y otro para expiación; y la reconciliará el sacerdote, y será limpia.

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.
