Numbers 6:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ “If you have taken the Nazirite vow, you must not go near someone who is dying^[a] during that special time of dedication. You have given yourself fully to the Lord, ⁷ so you must not let yourself become unclean like this—even for your own father or mother, brother or sister when they die.^[b] This is because you have the hair that you dedicated to God on your head! ⁸ It is holy because you have given yourself fully to the Lord for the full time of that dedication.
