²⁶ After he is cleansed, he must wait seven days.^(A)

¹³ The blood of goats and bulls^(A) and the ashes of a heifer^(B) sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. ¹⁴ How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit^(C) offered himself^(D) unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences^(E) from acts that lead to death,^[a](F) so that we may serve the living God!^(G)

¹¹ “Whoever touches a human corpse^(A) will be unclean for seven days.^{(B) 12} They must purify themselves with the water on the third day and on the seventh day;^(C) then they will be clean. But if they do not purify themselves on the third and seventh days, they will not be clean.^{(D) 13} If they fail to purify themselves after touching a human corpse,^(E) they defile the Lord’s tabernacle.^(F) They must be cut off from Israel.^(G) Because the water of cleansing has not been sprinkled on them, they are unclean;^(H) their uncleanness remains on them.

¹⁴ “This is the law that applies when a person dies in a tent: Anyone who enters the tent and anyone who is in it will be unclean for seven days,

¹⁰ Then on the eighth day^(A) they must bring two doves or two young pigeons^(B) to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting.^{(C) 11} The priest is to offer one as a sin offering^[a](D) and the other as a burnt offering^(E) to make atonement^(F) for the Nazirite because they sinned by being in the presence of the dead body. That same day they are to consecrate their head again. ¹² They must rededicate themselves to the Lord for the same period of dedication and must bring a year-old male lamb^(G) as a guilt offering.^(H) The previous days do not count, because they became defiled during their period of dedication.

¹³ “‘Now this is the law of the Nazirite when the period of their dedication is over.^(I) They are to be brought to the entrance to the tent of meeting.^{(J) 14} There they are to present their offerings to the Lord: a year-old male lamb without defect^(K) for a burnt offering, a year-old ewe lamb without defect for a sin offering,^(L) a ram^(M) without defect for a fellowship offering,^{(N) 15} together with their grain offerings^(O) and drink offerings,^(P) and a basket of bread made with the finest flour and without yeast—thick loaves with olive oil mixed in, and thin loaves brushed with olive oil.^(Q)

¹⁶ “‘The priest is to present all these^(R) before the Lord^(S) and make the sin offering and the burnt offering.^{(T) 17} He is to present the basket of unleavened bread and is to sacrifice the ram as a fellowship offering^(U) to the Lord, together with its grain offering^(V) and drink offering.^(W)

¹⁸ “‘Then at the entrance to the tent of meeting, the Nazirite must shave off the hair that symbolizes their dedication.^(X) They are to take the hair and put it in the fire that is under the sacrifice of the fellowship offering.

¹⁹ “‘After the Nazirite has shaved off the hair that symbolizes their dedication, the priest is to place in their hands a boiled shoulder of the ram, and one thick loaf and one thin loaf from the basket, both made without yeast.^{(Y) 20} The priest shall then wave these before the Lord as a wave offering;^(Z) they are holy^(AA) and belong to the priest, together with the breast that was waved and the thigh that was presented.^(AB) After that, the Nazirite may drink wine.^(AC)

²¹ “‘This is the law of the Nazirite^(AD) who vows offerings to the Lord in accordance with their dedication, in addition to whatever else they can afford. They must fulfill the vows^(AE) they have made, according to the law of the Nazirite.’”
