The Torah Concerning The Nazarites

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:1

  1     ?  And YAHWEH spoke unto Mosheh, saying,

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:2

  2    Speak unto the children of Yisrael, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto YAHWEH:

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:3

  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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:4

  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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:5

  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 separates himself unto YAHWEH, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:6

  6    All the days that he separates himself unto YAHWEH he shall come at no dead body.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:7

  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 YAHWEH is upon his head.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:8

  8    All the days of his separation he is holy unto YAHWEH.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:9

  9    And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he has 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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:10

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

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:11

  11    And the kohen 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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:12

  12    And he shall consecrate unto YAHWEH 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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:13

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

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:14

  14    And he shall offer his offering unto YAHWEH, 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 shalom offerings,

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:15

  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.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:16

  16    And the kohen shall bring them before YAHWEH, and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering:

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:17

  17    And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of shalom offerings unto YAHWEH, with the basket of unleavened bread: the kohen shall offer also his meat offering, and his drink offering.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:18

  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 shalom offerings.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:19

  19    And the kohen 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:

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:20

  20    And the kohen shall wave them for a wave offering before YAHWEH: this is holy for the kohen, with the wave breast and heave shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:21

  21    This is the torah of the Nazarite who has vowed, and of his offering unto YAHWEH for his separation, beside that that his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he must do after the torah of his separation.

The Form Of Blessing The People

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:22

  22     ?  And YAHWEH spoke unto Mosheh, saying,

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:23

  23    Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise you shall bless the children of Yisrael, saying unto them,

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:24

  24    YAHWEH bless you, and keep you:

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:25

  25    YAHWEH make his face shine upon you, and show favour unto you:

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:26

  26    YAHWEH lift up his countenance upon you, and give you shalom.

BEMIDBAR - NUMBERS 6:27

  27    And they shall put my name upon the children of Yisrael; and I will bless them.
