NOVA VULGATANEW JERUSALEM
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
2 “ Loquere ad filios Israel et dices ad eos: Vir sive mulier cum fecerint votum, ut sanctificentur et se voluerint Domino consecrare,2 'Speak to the Israelites and say: "If a man or a woman wishes to make a vow, the nazirite vow, to vowhimself to Yahweh,
3 a vino et omni quod inebriare potest abstinebunt; acetum ex vino et ex qualibet alia potione et, quidquid de uva exprimitur, non bibent; uvas recentes siccasque non comedent3 he wil abstain from wine and fermented liquor, he will not drink vinegar derived from one or the other,he wil not drink grape-juice or eat grapes, be they fresh or dried.
4 cunctis diebus, quibus ex voto Domino consecrantur: quidquid ex vinea esse potest ab uva acerba usque ad pellicula non comedent.4 For the duration of his vow he wil eat nothing that comes from the vine, not even juice of unripe grapesor skins of grapes.
5 Omni tempore separationis suae novacula non transibit per caput eius usque ad completum tempus, quo Domino consecratur; sanctus erit crescente caesarie capitis eius.5 As long as he is bound by his vow, no razor wil touch his head; until the time for which he has vowedhimself to Yahweh is completed, he remains consecrated and will let his hair grow freely.
6 Omni tempore consecrationis suae ad mortuum non ingredietur;6 For the entire period of his vow to Yahweh, he wil not go near a corpse,
7 nec super patris quidem et matris et fratris sororisque funere contaminabitur, quia consecratio Dei sui super caput eius est.7 he wil not make himself unclean for his father or his mother, or his brother or his sister, should theydie, since on his head he carries his vow to his God.
8 Omnibus diebus separationis suae sanctus erit Domino.
8 Throughout the whole of his vow he is a person consecrated to Yahweh.
9 Sin autem mortuus fuerit subito quispiam coram eo, polluetur caput consecrationis eius; quod radet ilico in eadem die purgationis suae, id est die septima.9 "If anyone suddenly dies near him, making his vowed hair unclean, he wil shave his head on the dayhe is purified, he wil shave his head on the seventh day.
10 In octava autem die offeret duos turtures vel duos pullos columbae sacerdoti in introitu tabernaculi conventus,10 On the eighth day, he wil bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, at the entrance tothe Tent of Meeting.
11 facietque sacerdos unum pro peccato et alterum in holocaustum et expiabit pro eo, quia peccavit super mortuo, sanctificabitque caput eius in die illo11 The priest wil offer one as a sacrifice for sin, and the other as a burnt offering and wil then performfor the person the rite of expiation for the pollution which he has contracted from the corpse. He wil consecratehis head that same day;
12 et consecrabit Domino dies separationis suae offerens agnum anniculum pro delicto; ita tamen, ut dies priores irriti fiant, quoniam polluta est consecratio eius.
12 he wil vow himself to Yahweh for the period of his nazirate, and wil bring a male yearling lamb as asacrifice of reparation. The time already spent wil not count, since his hair had become unclean.
13 Ista est lex consecrationis, cum dies, quos ex voto decreverat, complebuntur: adducent eum ad ostium tabernaculi conventus,13 "This is the ritual for the nazirite on the day when the period of his vow is completed. He will be led tothe entrance of the Tent of Meeting,
14 et offeret oblationem suam Domino agnum anniculum immaculatum in holocaustum et ovem anniculam immaculatam pro peccato et arietem immaculatum hostiam pacificam,14 bringing his offering to Yahweh: an unblemished male yearling lamb as a burnt offering, anunblemished yearling ewe lamb as a sacrifice for sin, an unblemished ram as a peace offering,
15 canistrum quoque panum azymorum, qui permixti sint oleo, et lagana absque fermento uncta oleo ac oblationem et libamina singulorum.15 and a basket of unleavened loaves made of fine flour mixed with oil, and of unleavened wafersspread with oil, with the cereal offerings and libations appropriate to them.
16 Quae offeret sacerdos coram Domino et faciet tam pro peccato quam in holocaustum;16 The priest, having brought al this before Yahweh, wil offer the nazirite's sin sacrifice and burntoffering.
17 arietem vero immolabit hostiam pacificam Domino offerens simul canistrum azymorum; facietque oblationem eius et libamenta.17 The latter wil then offer the ram as a communion sacrifice with the basket of unleavened bread, andthe priest wil offer the accompanying cereal offering and libation.
18 Tunc radet nazaraeus ante ostium tabernaculi conventus caesariem consecrationis suae tolletque capillos suos et ponet super ignem, qui est suppositus sacrificio pacificorum,18 The nazirite wil then shave off his vowed hair at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and, taking thelocks of his vowed head, he wil put them in the fire of the communion sacrifice.
19 et sumet sacerdos armum coctum arietis tortamque absque fermento unam de canistro et laganum azymum unum et tradet in manus nazaraei, postquam rasum fuerit caput eius;19 The priest wil take the shoulder of the ram, as soon as it is cooked, with an unleavened cake fromthe basket, and an unleavened wafer, and put them into the hands of the nazirite once he has shaved off hishair.
20 et agitabit in conspectu Domini, et sanctificata sacerdotis erunt sicut pectusculum, quod agitari, et femur, quod praelevari iussum est. Post haec potest bibere nazaraeus vinum ”.
20 With these he wil make the gesture of offering before Yahweh; as it is a holy thing, it reverts to thepriest, in addition to the forequarter that has been presented and the thigh that has been set aside. After this, thenazirite may drink wine.
21 Ista est lex nazaraei, cum voverit oblationem suam Domino tempore consecrationis suae, exceptis his, quae invenerit manus eius. Iuxta quod devoverat, ita faciet secundum legem consecrationis suae.
21 "Such is the ritual for the nazirite. If, besides his hair, he has also vowed a personal offering toYahweh, he will (apart from anything else that his means al ow) fulfil the vow that he has made, in addition towhat the ritual prescribes for his hair." '
22 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens:22 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
23 “ Loquere Aaron et filiis eius: Sic benedicetis filiis Israel et dicetis eis:
23 'Speak to Aaron and his sons and say: "This is how you must bless the Israelites. You wil say:
24 "Benedicat tibi Dominus et custodiat te!
24 May Yahweh bless you and keep you.
25 Illuminet Dominus faciem suam super te et misereatur tui!
25 May Yahweh let his face shine on you and be gracious to you.
26 Convertat Dominus vultum suum ad te et det tibi pacem!".
26 May Yahweh show you his face and bring you peace."
27 Invocabuntque nomen meum super filios Israel, et ego benedicam eis ”.
27 This is how they must cal down my name on the Israelites, and then I shal bless them.'
