Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:11 - Then the priest will offer one for a purification offering and the other as a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because of his transgression in regard to the corpse. So he must reconsecrate his head on that day.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:14 - and he must present his offering to the LORD: one male lamb in its first year without blemish for a burnt offering, one ewe lamb in its first year without blemish for a purification offering, one ram without blemish for a peace offering,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:15 - and a basket of bread made without yeast, cakes of fine flour mixed with olive oil, wafers made without yeast and smeared with olive oil, and their grain offering and their drink offerings.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:16 - "'Then the priest must present all these before the LORD and offer his purification offering and his burnt offering.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:17 - Then he must offer the ram as a peace offering to the LORD, with the basket of bread made without yeast; the priest must also offer his grain offering and his drink offering.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:19 - And the priest must take the boiled shoulder of the ram, one cake made without yeast from the basket, and one wafer made without yeast, and put them on the hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved his consecrated head;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:20 - then the priest must wave them as a wave offering before the LORD; it is a holy portion for the priest, together with the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the raised offering. After this the Nazirite may drink wine.'
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:21 - "This is the law of the Nazirite who vows to the LORD his offering according to his separation, as well as whatever else he can provide. Thus he must fulfill his vow that he makes, according to the law of his separation."

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:22 - The LORD spoke to Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:23 - "Tell Aaron and his sons, 'This is the way you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:24 - "The LORD bless you and protect you;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:25 - The LORD make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:26 - The LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace."'
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:27 - So they will put my name on the Israelites, and I will bless them."
