Numbers:6:1-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD spake unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree ,
from the kernels even to the husk .
*
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 .
*
All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead body .
*
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 .
*
All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD .
*
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 .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 .
