Numbers 6:10-12
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
10 On the eighth day they shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the tent of meeting, 11 and the priest shall offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, and make atonement for them, because they incurred guilt by reason of the corpse. They shall sanctify the head that same day, 12 and separate themselves to the Lord for their days as nazirites,[a] and bring a male lamb a year old as a guilt offering. The former time shall be void, because the consecrated head was defiled.
