Numbers 6:6–12

⁶All the days that he separateth himself unto the Lord ^fhe shall come at no dead body. ^7gHe 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. ⁸All the days of his separation he is holy unto the Lord. ⁹And if any man die ^hvery suddenly by him, and he hath defiled the head of his consecration; then he shall ⁱshave his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave it. ¹⁰And ^kon the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: ¹¹And 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. ¹²And he shall consecrate unto the Lord the days of his separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year ^lfor a trespass offering: but the days that were before shall ^†be lost, because his separation was defiled.
