Numbers 6:12-21
12and shall live his days of consecration as a Nazirite for the Lord, and shall bring a male lamb a year old as a guilt offering; but the preceding days will 1not count, because his consecration was defiled.
13‘Now this is the law of the Nazirite 2when the days of his consecration are fulfilled: he shall bring 3his offering to the entrance of the tent of meeting. 14And he shall present his offering to the Lord: one male lamb a year old without defect as a burnt offering, one 4ewe lamb a year old without defect as a sin offering, one ram without defect as a peace offering, 15and a basket of 5unleavened loaves of fine flour mixed with oil and unleavened wafers spread with oil, along with 6their grain offering and their drink offering. 16Then the priest shall present them before the Lord and offer his sin offering and his burnt offering. 17He shall also offer the ram as a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, together with the basket of unleavened bread; the priest shall also offer its grain offering and its drink offering. 187The Nazirite shall then shave his consecrated head of hair at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and take the consecrated hair of his head and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace offerings. 198And the priest shall take the ram’s shoulder when it has been boiled, and one unleavened loaf from the basket and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the 9hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved his consecrated hair. 20Then the priest shall wave them as a wave offering before the Lord. It is holy for the priest, together with the breast offered as a wave offering, and the thigh offered as 10a contribution; and 11afterward the Nazirite may drink wine.’
21“This is the law of the Nazirite who vows his offering to the Lord according to his consecration, in addition to what else 12he can afford; corresponding to his vow which he makes, so he shall do according to the law of his consecration.”
