Our Papa Talk to Moses
Dem lay out di Nazirite vow — no wine, no razor, no dead body — as way for any Israelite, man or woman, to dey separate. E close with di words wey di priests must talk: make your Papa bless you and keep you.
6 1Den our Papa talk to Moses:
2"Talk to di Israelites, tell dem sey: If man or woman make special vow, di Nazirite vow, to set dem-self apart for di Papa, 3Dem no fit drink wine or strong drink, dem no fit drink vinegar wey come from any of dem, dem no fit drink any grape juice, dem no fit chop grape wey fresh or wey don dry. 4For di time wey dem separate dem-self, dem no fit chop anytin wey come from grapevine, from di seed sef reach di skin.
5"For di time of dia vow of separation, no razor go touch dia head. Until di time complete, dem go stay holy to di Papa; dem must let dia hair grow.
6"For all di time wey dem separate dem-self to di Papa, dem no fit go near dead body. 7Dem no fit make dem-self dirty even for papa, mama, broda, or sista wey die, because di crown of dedication to our Papa dey for dia head. 8For all di time wey dem separate dem-self, dem holy to di Papa.
9"If person die sharp-sharp for dia side, wey make dia dedicated head dirty, dem must shave dia head for di day of dia cleansing—dem go shave am for di seventh day. 10For di eighth day dem must bring two turtledove or two young pigeon give di priest for di door of di meeting tent. 11Di priest must offer one as sin offering, di oda one as burnt offering, and make atonement for dem, because dem sin by di way wey dem near di dead body. Dat same day dem must dedicate dia head again. 12Dem must dedicate to di Papa dia days of separation again and bring one year-old male lamb as guilt offering; di days wey pass no go count—because dia separation don become dirty.
13"Dis na di law of di Nazirite: when dia days of separation end, dem must come to di door of di tent of meeting. 14Dem must bring dia offering give di Papa: one year-old male lamb wey no get blemish as burnt offering, one year-old ewe lamb wey no get blemish as sin offering, and one ram wey no get blemish as peace offering, 15with basket of bread wey no get yeast—loaf of fine flour wey dem mix with oil, wafer wey no get yeast wey dem rub oil for body—plus dia grain offering and drink offering. 16Di priest must bring dem come before di Papa and offer di sin offering and di burnt offering. 17He must offer di ram as peace offering to di Papa with di basket of bread wey no get yeast, and offer di grain and drink offering wey follow am. 18For di door of di tent of meeting, di Nazirite must shave dia dedicated head, take di hair of dedication, and put am for di fire under di peace offering. 19Di priest go take di shoulder of di ram wey dem don boil, one loaf wey no get yeast and one wafer from di basket, and put dem for di hand of di Nazirite afta dem don shave di hair of dedication. 20Di priest go wave dem as wave offering before our Papa—na holy portion for di priest, together with di breast wey dem wave and di thigh wey dem give. Afta dat, di Nazirite fit drink wine.
21"Dis na di law of di Nazirite wey vow offering to our Papa for dia separation, apart from anytin else wey e fit afford. Dem must do according to dia vow, follow di law of dia separation."
Our Papa Talk Again

23"Tell Aaron and im sons: Na so you go bless di Israelites. Tell dem sey: 24'Make your Papa bless you and keep you; a a v24 Di priest dey put di name of our Papa for im people. Di threefold blessing wey di apostles give dey follow dis same pattern—di grace of our Oga Jesus Christ, di love of God, and di fellowship of di Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14). 25make your Papa make im face shine on you and show you favour; 26make your Papa look you with favour and give you peace.'
27"So dem go put my name for di Israelites, and I go bless dem."
