1 I Korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

2 K orero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu, Ki te hapu tetahi wahine, a ka whanau he tane, na kia whitu nga ra e poke ai ia; kia rite tona pokenga ki nga ra o tona mate paheke.

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman conceive seed, and bear a man-child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity of her sickness shall she be unclean.

3 A i te waru o nga ra ka kotia te kiri matamata o te tamaiti.

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

4 A me noho te wahine ki te toto o tona purenga, kia toru tekau ma toru nga ra: kaua ia e pa ki tetahi mea tapu, e haere ranei ki te wahi tapu, kia taka ra ano nga ra mo tona purenga.

And she shall 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 K i te mea ia ka whanau he kotiro, kia rua nga wiki e poke ai, kia rite ki o tona paheketanga: a kia ono tekau ma ono nga ra e noho ai ia ki te toto o tona purenga.

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

6 A ka rite nga ra mo tona purenga mo te tama, mo te kotiro ranei, me kawe mai e ia he reme, hei te tau tahi, hei tahunga tinana, me te pi kukupa, me te kukupa ranei, hei whakahere hara ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki te tohun ga:

And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb a year old for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove, for a sin-offering, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the priest:

7 A mana e whakahere ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a ka meinga he whakamarie mona; a ka kore ona poke i te rerenga o ona toto. Ko te ture tenei mo te wahine kua whanau nei tana tama, kotiro ranei.

and he shall offer it before Jehovah, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. This is the law for her that beareth, whether a male or a female.

8 A ki te kahore e taea e ia i ona rawa te kawe mai he reme, me kawe mai nga kukupa e rua, nga pi kukupa ranei e rua; ko tetahi hei tahunga tinana, ko tetahi hei whakahere hara: a ma te tohunga e whakamarie mona, a ka kore ona poke.

And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering: and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
