Leviticus 12

1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,

Y habló Jehová a Moisés, diciendo:

2 “Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If a woman gives birth to a son, she must be avoided for seven days, like she must be avoided when she is menstruating each month.

Habla a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: La mujer cuando concibiere, y pariere varón, será inmunda siete días: conforme a los días del apartamiento de su menstruo será inmunda.

3 The baby son must be circumcised on the eighth day after he is born.

Y al octavo día circuncidará la carne de su prepucio.

4 Then the woman must wait 33 days to be purified from her bleeding [during childbirth]. She must not touch anything that is sacred or enter the Sacred Tent area until that time is ended.

Y treinta y tres días estará en las sangres de su purgación: ninguna cosa santa tocará, ni vendrá al santuario, hasta que sean cumplidos los días de su purgación.

5 If a woman gives birth to a daughter, she must be avoided for two weeks, like she must be avoided when she is menstruating each month. Then she must wait 66 days to be purified from the bleeding that occurred [when her baby was born].

Y si pariere hembra, será inmunda dos semanas, conforme a su apartamiento, y sesenta y seis días estará en las sangres de su purificación.

6 ‘Then that time for her to be purified is ended, that woman must bring to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent a one-year-old lamb to be completely burned [on the altar], and a dove or a young pigeon [to be sacrificed] to enable her to become acceptable to Yahweh again.

Y desde que 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.

7 The priest will offer them to Yahweh in order that she may be forgiven for any sins she has committed. Then she will be purified from her loss of blood [when the baby was born]. ‘Those are the regulations for women who give birth to a son or daughter.

Y ofrecerlo ha delante de Jehová, y reconciliarla ha, y será limpia del flujo de su sangre. Esta es la ley de la que pariere macho, o hembra.

8 If a woman who gives birth to a child cannot afford a lamb, she must bring two doves or two young pigeons. One will be burned completely [on the altar], and one will be an offering to enable her to become acceptable to God again. By doing that, the priest will cause that she will be forgiven for any sins she has committed, and she no longer will need to be avoided.’”

Y si no alcanzare su mano asaz para cordero, entonces tomará dos tórtolas, o dos palominos, uno para holocausto, y otro para expiación: y reconciliarla ha el sacerdote, y será limpia.
