2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘In case a woman conceives seed+ and does bear a male, she must be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity when she is menstruating she will be unclean.+

6 And we become like someone unclean, all of us, and all our acts of righteousness are like a garment for periods of menstruation;+ and we shall fade away like leafage,+ all of us, and our errors themselves* will carry us away just like a wind.+
