* "
Say to the people of Israel ,
If a woman conceives ,
and bears a male child ,
then she shall be unclean seven days ;
as at the time of her menstruation ,
she shall be unclean .
*
And on the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised .
*
Then she shall continue for thirty-three days in the blood of her purifying ;
she shall not touch any hallowed thing ,
nor come into the sanctuary ,
until the days of her purifying are completed .
*
But if she bears a female child ,
then she shall be unclean two weeks ,
as in her menstruation ;
and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying for sixty-six days .
* "
And when the days of her purifying are completed ,
whether for a son or for a daughter ,
she shall bring to the priest at the door of the tent of meeting a lamb a year old for a burnt offering ,
and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin offering ,
