Leviticus 12:2-4

Common English Bible

² Say to the Israelites: If a woman conceives a child and gives birth to a son, she will be unclean for seven days—just as she is during her menstrual period. ³ On the eighth day, the flesh of the boy’s foreskin must be circumcised. ⁴ For thirty-three days the mother will be in a state of blood purification. She must not touch anything holy or enter the sacred area until her time of purification is completed.
