Numbers 6 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[2] “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: ‘When either man or woman shall make a special vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to Yahweh,
[3] he shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of fermented drink, neither shall he drink any juice of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried.
[4] All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is made of the grapevine, from the seeds even to the skins.
[5] “ ‘All the days of his vow of separation no razor shall come on his head, until the days are fulfilled in which he separates himself to Yahweh. He shall be holy. He shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long.
[6] “ ‘All the days that he separates himself to Yahweh he shall not go near a 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 his separation to God is on his head.
[8] All the days of his separation he is holy to Yahweh.
[9] “ ‘If any man dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles the head of his separation, then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing. On the seventh day he shall shave it.
[10] On the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting.
[11] The priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because he sinned by reason of the dead, and shall make his head holy that same day.
[12] He shall separate to Yahweh the days of his separation, and shall bring a male lamb a year old for a trespass offering; but the former days shall be void, because his separation was defiled.
[13] “ ‘This is the law of the Nazirite: when the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door of the Tent of Meeting,
[14] and he shall offer his offering to Yahweh: one male lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering, one ewe lamb a year old without defect for a sin offering, one ram without defect for peace offerings,
[15] a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil with their meal offering and their drink offerings.
[16] The priest shall present them before Yahweh, and shall offer his sin offering and his burnt offering.
[17] He shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh, with the basket of unleavened bread. The priest shall offer also its meal offering and its drink offering.
[18] The Nazirite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace offerings.
[19] The priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved the head of his separation;
[20] and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before Yahweh. They are holy for the priest, together with the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered. After that the Nazirite may drink wine.
[21] “ ‘This is the law of the Nazirite who vows and of his offering to Yahweh for his separation, in addition to that which he is able to afford. According to his vow which he vows, so he must do after the law of his separation.’ ”
[22] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[23] “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is how you shall bless the children of Israel.’ You shall tell them,
[24] ‘Yahweh bless you, and keep you.
[25] Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you.
[26] Yahweh lift up his face toward you, and give you peace.’
[27] “So they shall put my name on the children of Israel; and I will bless them.”

Numbers 6:7 The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “אֱלֹהִ֑ים” (Elohim).

Young’s Literal Translation

Numbers 6 (YLT)

[1] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[2] ‘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] 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] 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 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] ‘All days of his keeping separate to Jehovah, near a dead person he doth not go;
[7] 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 is on his head;
[8] all days of his separation he is holy to Jehovah.
[9] ‘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] 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] 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] 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] ‘And this is the law of the Nazarite; in the day of the fulness of the days of his separation doth one bring him in unto the opening of the tent of meeting,
[14] 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] 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] ‘And the priest hath brought them near before Jehovah, and hath made his sin-offering and his burnt-offering;
[17] 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] ‘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 it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace-offerings.
[19] ‘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] and the priest hath waved them, a wave-offering before Jehovah; it is 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 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] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[23] ‘Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, saying, Thus ye do bless the sons of Israel, saying to them,
[24] ‘Jehovah bless thee and keep thee;
[25] ‘Jehovah cause His face to shine upon thee, and favour thee;
[26] ‘Jehovah lift up His countenance upon thee, and appoint for thee-peace.
[27] ‘And they have put My name upon the sons of Israel, and I-I do bless them.’
