² “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When a man or woman makes a ^[a]special vow, the vow of ^(A)a ^[b]Nazirite, to dedicate himself as a Nazirite to Yahweh,

⁵ ‘All the days of his vow as a Nazirite ^(A)no razor shall pass over his head. He shall be holy until the days are fulfilled for which he dedicated himself as a Nazirite to Yahweh; he shall let the locks of hair on his head grow long.

^5 (A)For behold, you ^[a]shall be with child and give birth to a son, and no razor shall come upon his head, for the boy shall be a ^(B)Nazirite to God from the womb; and he shall begin to save Israel from the hand of the Philistines.”
