Leviticus 12
Christian Standard Bible
Purification after Childbirth
12 The Lord spoke to Moses: 2 “Tell the Israelites: When a woman becomes pregnant and gives birth to a male child,(A) she will be unclean seven days, as she is during the days of her menstrual impurity.(B) 3 The flesh of his foreskin(C) must be circumcised(D) on the eighth day.(E) 4 She will continue in purification(F) from her bleeding(G) for thirty-three days. She must not touch any holy thing or go into the sanctuary until completing her days of purification. 5 But if she gives birth to a female child, she will be unclean for two weeks as she is during her menstrual impurity. She will continue in purification from her bleeding for sixty-six days.
6 “When her days of purification are complete, whether for a son or daughter, she is to bring to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting a year-old male lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin[a] offering. 7 He will present them before the Lord and make atonement on her behalf; she will be clean from her discharge of blood. This is the law for a woman giving birth, whether to a male or female. 8 But if she doesn’t have sufficient means[b](H) for a sheep, she may take two turtledoves or two young pigeons,(I) one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering. Then the priest will make atonement on her behalf, and she will be clean.”

Chinese New Version (Traditional)
產婦潔淨之條例
12 耶和華對摩西說： 2 “你要告訴以色列人：如果有婦人懷孕，生了男孩，她就不潔淨七天，好像患病污穢的日子不潔淨一樣。 3 第八天男嬰要受割禮。 4 婦人潔淨產血的時期要住在家三十三天；得潔淨的日子未滿之前，她不可觸摸任何聖物，也不可進入聖潔的地方。 5 如果她生了女孩，就不潔淨十四天，像月經污穢的日子一樣；婦人潔淨產血的時期，要住在家裡六十六天。
6 “潔淨的日子滿了，不論是為男孩或是為女孩，她都要用一隻一歲的綿羊羔作燔祭，一隻雛鴿，或一隻斑鳩作贖罪祭，帶到會幕門口那裡，交給祭司。 7 祭司把供物獻在耶和華面前，為她贖罪，她的血就潔淨了。以上是生育男女的律例。 8 她的經濟能力若是不夠獻一隻羊羔，她可以拿兩隻斑鳩，或是兩隻雛鴿，一隻作燔祭，一隻作贖罪祭；祭司要為她贖罪，她就潔淨了。”
Leviticus 12
King James Version
12 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 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.
3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4 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.
5 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.
6 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:
7 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.
8 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.
