Numbers 6 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

‘All the time of the vow of his separation no razor shall be used on his head. Until the time of his separation to the LORD is completed, he shall be holy, and shall let the hair of his head grow long.

‘All the time that he separates himself to the LORD he shall not go near a dead body.

‘If a man dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles his dedicated head, then he shall shave his head on the day that he becomes [ceremonially] clean; he shall shave it on the seventh day [the end of the purification period].

‘Now this is the law of the Nazirite when the days of his separation and dedication are fulfilled: he shall bring the offering to the doorway of the Tent of Meeting (tabernacle).

“This is the law for the [fn]Nazirite who vows his offering to the LORD for his separation, besides what else [fn]he is able to afford, according to the vow which he has vowed; so shall he do according to the law for his separation and abstinence [as a Nazirite].”

Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

The LORD bless you, and keep you [protect you, sustain you, and guard you];

The LORD make His face shine upon you [with favor],

And be gracious to you [surrounding you with lovingkindness];

The LORD lift up His countenance (face) upon you [with divine approval],

And give you peace [a tranquil heart and life].’

“So Aaron and his sons shall put My name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”
