婦人生子成潔之例

12 耶和華對摩西說: 「你曉諭以色列人說:若有婦人懷孕生男孩,她就不潔淨七天,像在月經汙穢的日子不潔淨一樣。 第八天,要給嬰孩行割禮。 婦人在產血不潔之中,要家居三十三天。她潔淨的日子未滿,不可摸聖物,也不可進入聖所。 她若生女孩,就不潔淨兩個七天,像汙穢的時候一樣。要在產血不潔之中,家居六十六天。

「滿了潔淨的日子,無論是為男孩是為女孩,她要把一歲的羊羔為燔祭,一隻雛鴿或是一隻斑鳩為贖罪祭,帶到會幕門口交給祭司。 祭司要獻在耶和華面前,為她贖罪,她的血源就潔淨了。這條例是為生育的婦人,無論是生男生女。 她的力量若不夠獻一隻羊羔,她就要取兩隻斑鳩或是兩隻雛鴿,一隻為燔祭,一隻為贖罪祭。祭司要為她贖罪,她就潔淨了。」

产妇洁净的条例

12 耶和华对摩西说: “你把以下条例告诉以色列人。

“如果有妇人生了男婴,她就要不洁净七天,像在经期内不洁净一样。 第八天,婴儿要接受割礼。 妇人因产后流血,要等三十三天才能洁净。其间,不可接触任何圣物,也不可进入圣所。 如果妇人生的是女婴,她就要不洁净十四天,像在经期内不洁净一样。她因产后流血,要等六十六天才能洁净。 不论她生男生女,洁净期满后,都要预备一只一岁的羊羔作燔祭、一只雏鸽或斑鸠作赎罪祭,带到会幕门口交给祭司。 祭司要在耶和华面前献祭,为她赎罪,她就洁净了。这是有关产妇的条例。 她若负担不起一只羊羔,可以带两只斑鸠或雏鸽来,一只作燔祭,一只作赎罪祭。祭司为她赎罪后,她就洁净了。”

Purification After Childbirth

12 The Lord said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites: ‘A woman who becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son will be ceremonially unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean during her monthly period.(A) On the eighth day(B) the boy is to be circumcised.(C) Then the woman must wait thirty-three days to be purified from her bleeding. She must not touch anything sacred or go to the sanctuary until the days of her purification are over. If she gives birth to a daughter, for two weeks the woman will be unclean, as during her period. Then she must wait sixty-six days to be purified from her bleeding.

“‘When the days of her purification for a son or daughter are over,(D) she is to bring to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting a year-old lamb(E) for a burnt offering and a young pigeon or a dove for a sin offering.[a](F) He shall offer them before the Lord to make atonement for her, and then she will be ceremonially clean from her flow of blood.

“‘These are the regulations for the woman who gives birth to a boy or a girl. But if she cannot afford a lamb, she is to bring two doves or two young pigeons,(G) one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering.(H) In this way the priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.(I)’”

Footnotes

  1. Leviticus 12:6 Or purification offering; also in verse 8

12 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.

And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.

And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.

But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.

And when the days of her purifying 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 turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:

Who shall offer it before the Lord, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.

And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
