1 T hen the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

2 “ Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When either a man or woman consecrates an offering to take the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to the Lord,

`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When a man or woman doeth singularly, by vowing a vow of a Nazarite, to be separate to Jehovah;

3 h e shall separate himself from wine and similar drink; he shall drink neither vinegar made from wine nor vinegar made from similar drink; neither shall he drink any grape juice, nor eat fresh grapes or raisins.

from wine and strong drink he doth keep separate; vinegar of wine, and vinegar of strong drink he doth not drink, and any juice of grapes he doth not drink, and grapes moist or dry he doth not eat;

4 A ll the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is produced by the grapevine, from seed to skin.

all days of his separation, of anything which is made of the wine-vine, from kernels even unto husk, he doth not eat.

5 ‘ All the days of the vow of his separation no razor shall come upon his head; until the days are fulfilled for which he separated himself to the Lord, he shall be holy. Then he shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.

`All days of the vow of his separation a razor doth not pass over his head; till the fulness of the days which he doth separate to Jehovah he is holy; grown up hath the upper part of the hair of his head.

6 A ll the days that he separates himself to the Lord he shall not go near a dead body.

`All days of his keeping separate to Jehovah, near a dead person he doth not go;

7 H e shall not make himself unclean even for his father or his mother, for his brother or his sister, when they die, because his separation to God is on his head.

for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister -- he is not unclean for them at their death, for the separation of his God on his head;

8 A ll the days of his separation he shall be holy to the Lord.

all days of his separation he holy to Jehovah.

9 ‘ And if anyone dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles his consecrated head, then he shall shave his head on the day of his cleansing; on the seventh day he shall shave it.

`And when the dead dieth beside him in an instant, suddenly, and he hath defiled the head of his separation, then he hath shaved his head in the day of his cleansing; on the seventh day he doth shave it,

10 T hen on the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of meeting;

and on the eighth day he bringeth in two turtle-doves or two young pigeons unto the priest, unto the opening of the tent of meeting,

11 a nd the priest shall offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because he sinned in regard to the corpse; and he shall sanctify his head that same day.

and the priest hath prepared one for a sin-offering, and one for a burnt-offering, and hath made atonement for him, because of that which he hath sinned by the body, and he hath hallowed his head on that day;

12 H e shall consecrate to the Lord the days of his separation, and bring a male lamb in its first year as a trespass offering; but the former days shall be lost, because his separation was defiled.

and he hath separated to Jehovah the days of his separation, and he hath brought in a lamb, a son of a year, for a guilt-offering, and the former days are fallen, for his separation hath been defiled.

13 ‘ Now this is the law of the Nazirite: When the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

`And this the law of the Nazarite; in the day of the fulness of the days of his separation doth bring him in unto the opening of the tent of meeting,

14 A nd he shall present his offering to the Lord: one male lamb in its first year without blemish as a burnt offering, one ewe lamb in its first year without blemish as a sin offering, one ram without blemish as a peace offering,

and he hath brought near his offering to Jehovah, one he-lamb, a son of a year, a perfect one, for a burnt-offering, and one she-lamb, a daughter of a year, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and one ram, a perfect one, for peace-offerings,

15 a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and their grain offering with their drink offerings.

and a basket of unleavened things of flour, cakes mixed with oil, and thin cakes of unleavened things anointed with oil, and their present, and their libations.

16 T hen the priest shall bring them before the Lord and offer his sin offering and his burnt offering;

`And the priest hath brought near before Jehovah, and hath made his sin-offering and his burnt-offering;

17 a nd he shall offer the ram as a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord, with the basket of unleavened bread; the priest shall also offer its grain offering and its drink offering.

and the ram he maketh a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, besides the basket of unleavened things; and the priest hath made its present and its libation.

18 T hen the Nazirite shall shave his consecrated head at the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and shall take the hair from his consecrated head and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offering.

`And the Nazarite hath shaved (at the opening of the tent of meeting) the head of his separation, and hath taken the hair of the head of his separation, and hath put on the fire which under the sacrifice of the peace-offerings.

19 ‘ And the priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, one unleavened cake from the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and put them upon the hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved his consecrated hair,

`And the priest hath taken the boiled shoulder from the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one thin unleavened cake, and hath put on the palms of the Nazarite after his shaving his separation;

20 a nd the priest shall wave them as a wave offering before the Lord; they are holy for the priest, together with the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the heave offering. After that the Nazirite may drink wine.’

and the priest hath waved them, a wave-offering before Jehovah; it holy to the priest, besides the breast of the wave-offering, and besides the leg of the heave-offering; and afterwards doth the Nazarite drink wine.

21 “ This is the law of the Nazirite who vows to the Lord the offering for his separation, and besides that, whatever else his hand is able to provide; according to the vow which he takes, so he must do according to the law of his separation.” The Priestly Blessing

`This the law of the Nazarite, who voweth his offering to Jehovah for his separation, apart from that which his hand attaineth; according to his vow which he voweth so he doth by the law of his separation.'

22 A nd the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

23 “ Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:

`Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, saying, Thus ye do bless the sons of Israel, saying to them,

24 “ The Lord bless you and keep you;

`Jehovah bless thee and keep thee;

25 T he Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you;

`Jehovah cause His face to shine upon thee, and favour thee;

26 T he Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.”’

`Jehovah lift up His countenance upon thee, and appoint for thee -- peace.

27 “ So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”

`And they have put My name upon the sons of Israel, and I -- I do bless them.'
