Numbers 6:16-27 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

16. And the priest shall present them before the Lord, and shall offer both the sin offering and the holocaust.

17. But the ram he shall immolate for a sacrifice of peace offering to the Lord, offering at the same time the basket of unleavened bread, and the libations that are due by custom.

18. Then shall the hair of the consecration of the Nazarite, be shaved off before the door of the tabernacle of the covenant: and he shall take his hair, and lay it upon the fire, which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.

19. And shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and he shall deliver them into the hands of the Nazarite, after his head is shaven.

20. And receiving them again from him, he shall elevate them in the sight of the Lord: and they being sanctified shall belong to the priest, as the breast, which was commanded to be separated, and the shoulder. After this the Nazarite may drink wine.

21. This is the law of the Nazarite, when he hath vowed his oblation to the Lord in the time of his consecration, besides those things which his hand shall find, according to that which he had vowed in his mind, so shall he do for the fulfilling of his sanctification.

22. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

23. Say to Aaron and his sons: Thus shall you bless the children of Israel, and you shall say to them:

24. The Lord bless thee, and keep thee.

25. The Lord shew his face to thee, and have mercy on thee.

26. The Lord turn his countenance to thee, and give thee peace.

27. And they shall invoke my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
