New Testament

Numbers 6:4-9 God's Word Translation (GW)

4. As long as they are Nazirites, they must never eat anything that comes from a grapevine, not even grape seeds or skins.

5. “As long as they are under the Nazirite vow, no razor may touch their heads. During the entire time that they are dedicated to the Lord as Nazirites, they will be holy. They must let their hair grow long.

6. While they are dedicated to the Lord as Nazirites, they must never go near a dead body.

7. Even if their own father, mother, brother, or sister dies, they must not make themselves unclean by going near them. Nazarites show their vow to God with their long hair.

8. As long as they are Nazirites, they will be holy to the Lord.

9. “Someone might suddenly drop dead next to a Nazirite and make the Nazirite’s hair unclean. Seven days later he must shave his head in order to be declared clean.
