¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When¹ either man or woman shall separate themselves² to vow³ a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the LORD:

⁴He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried.

All the days of his separation⁵ shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree⁶, from the kernels even to the husk.

All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor⁷ come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.

All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come⁸ at no dead body.

He shall not make himself unclean⁹ for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration¹⁰ of his God is upon his head.

¹¹All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD.

And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he¹² hath defiled the head of his consecration; then he shall shave¹³ his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave it.

¶¹⁴And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:

And the priest shall offer¹⁵ the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement for him, for that he sinned by the dead, and shall¹⁶ hallow his head that same day.

And he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a trespass¹⁷ offering: but the¹⁸ days that were before shall be lost¹⁹, because his separation was defiled.

And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled²⁰: he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:

And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he²¹ lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe²² lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram²³ without blemish for peace offerings,

And a basket²⁴ of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed²⁵ with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink²⁶ offerings.

And the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall offer his sin offering²⁷, and his burnt offering²⁸:

And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings²⁹ unto the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread: the priest shall offer also his meat offering³⁰, and his drink offering³¹.

And the Nazarite shall shave the head³² of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it³³ in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.

And the priest shall take the sodden³⁴ shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them³⁵ upon the hands of the Nazarite, after the hair of his separation is shaven:

¶ And the priest shall³⁶ wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave³⁷ breast and heave shoulder: and after³⁸ that the Nazarite may drink wine.

This is the law³⁹ of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of his offering unto the LORD for his separation, beside that⁴⁰ that his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation.

¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

⁴¹Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,

The LORD⁴² bless thee, and keep thee⁴³:

The LORD⁴⁴ make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious⁴⁵ unto thee:

The LORD lift up⁴⁶ his countenance upon thee, and give thee⁴⁷ peace.

And they shall put my⁴⁸ name upon the children of Israel; and I will⁴⁹ bless them.
