4 As long as they are nazirites they shall not eat anything of the produce of the grapevine; not even the seeds or the skins.
5 While they are under the nazirite vow, no razor shall touch their hair. Until the period of their dedication to the Lord is over, they shall be holy, letting the hair of their heads grow freely.
6 As long as they are dedicated to the Lord, they shall not come near a dead person.
7 Not even for their father or mother, sister or brother, should they defile themselves, when these die, since their heads bear their dedication to God.
8 As long as they are nazirites they are holy to the Lord.
9 If someone dies very suddenly in their presence, defiling their dedicated heads, they shall shave their heads on the day of their purification, that is, on the seventh day.
10 On the eighth day they shall bring two turtledoves or two pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
