Numbers

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 2 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, and say unto them, When ei­ther man or wom­an shall sep­a­rate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to sep­a­rate themselves unto the LORD: 3 He 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. 4 All the days of his sep­a­ra­tion shall he eat noth­ing that is made of the vine tree, from the ker­nels even to the husk. 5 All the days of the vow of his sep­a­ra­tion there shall no ra­zor 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. 6 All the days that he sep­a­rateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead body. 7 He shall not make him­self un­clean for his fa­ther, or for his moth­er, for his broth­er, or for his sis­ter, when they die: be­cause the con­se­cra­tion of his God is upon his head. 8 All the days of his sep­a­ra­tion he is holy unto the LORD. 9 And if any man die very sud­den­ly by him, and he hath de­filed the head of his con­se­cra­tion; then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleans­ing, on the sev­enth day shall he shave it. 10 And 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: 11 And the priest shall of­fer 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 shall hal­low his head that same day. 12 And he shall con­se­crate unto the LORD the days of his sep­a­ra­tion, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a tres­pass of­fer­ing: but the days that were be­fore shall be lost, be­cause his sep­a­ra­tion was de­filed. 13 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his sep­a­ra­tion are ful­filled: he shall be brought unto the door of the taber­na­cle of the con­gre­ga­tion: 14 And he shall of­fer his of­fer­ing unto the LORD, one he lamb of the first year with­out blem­ish for a burnt of­fer­ing, and one ewe lamb of the first year with­out blem­ish for a sin of­fer­ing, and one ram with­out blem­ish for peace of­fer­ings, 15 And a bas­ket of un­leav­ened bread, cakes of fine flour min­gled with oil, and wafers of un­leav­ened bread anoint­ed with oil, and their meat of­fer­ing, and their drink of­fer­ings. 16 And the priest shall bring them be­fore the LORD, and shall of­fer his sin of­fer­ing, and his burnt of­fer­ing: 17 And he shall of­fer the ram for a sac­ri­fice of peace of­fer­ings unto the LORD, with the bas­ket of un­leav­ened bread: the priest shall of­fer also his meat of­fer­ing, and his drink of­fer­ing. 18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head 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 it in the fire which is un­der the sac­ri­fice of the peace of­fer­ings. 19 And the priest shall take the sod­den shoul­der of the ram, and one un­leav­ened cake out of the bas­ket, and one un­leav­ened wafer, and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite, af­ter the hair of his sep­a­ra­tion is shaven: 20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave of­fer­ing be­fore the LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoul­der: and af­ter that the Nazarite may drink wine. 21 This is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of his of­fer­ing unto the LORD for his sep­a­ra­tion, be­side that that his hand shall get: ac­cord­ing to the vow which he vowed, so he must do af­ter the law of his sep­a­ra­tion. 22 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 23 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, say­ing, On this wise ye shall bless the chil­dren of Is­rael, say­ing unto them, 24 The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: 25 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gra­cious unto thee: 26 The LORD lift up his coun­te­nance upon thee, and give thee peace. 27 And they shall put my name upon the chil­dren of Is­rael; and I will bless them.
