She shall not touch any holy thing or enter the sanctuary until the days of her purification are completed. 5 But if she gives birth to a female child, she will be unclean for two weeks as in her menstruation, and she must remain in the blood of her purification for sixty-six days. 6 When the days of her purification for a son or daughter are completed, she shall bring to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting a year-old lamb for a burnt offering and a young pigeon or turtledove for a sin offering, and give them to the priest. 7 The priest shall offer them before the LORD and make atonement for her, and she will be clean from the flow of her blood. This is the law for a woman who gives birth to a male or a female. 8 But if she cannot afford a lamb, she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons—one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering. The priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.

They must wash their clothes, bathe in water, and will remain unclean until evening. 28 When she is cleansed from her discharge, she must count seven days, and after that she will be clean. 29 On the eighth day, she must take two turtledoves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 30 The priest is to offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way, the priest will make atonement for her before the LORD because of her discharge. 31 You must warn the Israelites about their impurity, so they do not die by defiling My tabernacle, which is among them. 32 This is the law concerning the man with a discharge and anyone who has an emission of semen that makes him unclean. 33 It also applies to a woman during her menstrual period, to anyone—male or female—with a discharge, and to a man who lies with a woman who is unclean.
