1 T hen the Lord said to Moses,

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

2 “ Say to the people of Israel, ‘When a woman gives birth to a male child, she will be unclean for seven days as during her time each month.

Korero 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.

3 O n the eighth day the child is to go through the religious act of becoming a Jew.

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

4 T he mother will be unclean for thirty-three days, until her blood stops flowing. She will not touch any holy thing or go into the holy place, until the days for making her clean are finished.

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.

5 I f she gives birth to a female child, she will be unclean for two weeks, as during the time she is unclean each month. She will be unclean for sixty-six days, until her blood stops flowing.

Ki 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.

6 ‘ When the days for making her clean are finished, for a son or for a daughter, she will bring her gifts to the religious leader at the door of the meeting tent. She will bring a one year old lamb for a burnt gift, and a young pigeon or a turtle-dove for a sin gift.

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:

7 T hen he will give it to the Lord and pay for her sins. She will be made clean from the flow of her blood. This is the Law for her who gives birth to a son or daughter.

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.

8 B ut if she does not have enough money for a lamb, then she will take two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, one for a burnt gift and the other for a sin gift. The religious leader will pay for her sins and she will be clean.’”

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.
