Numbers 6:7
He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration of his God is upon his head.
KJV
nec super patris quidem et matris et fratris sororisque funere contaminabitur, quia consecratio Dei sui super caput ejus est.
Vulgate
ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ ἐπὶ μητρὶ καὶ ἐπ’ ἀδελφῷ καὶ ἐπ’ ἀδελφῇ, οὐ μιανθήσεται ἐπ’ αὐτοῖς ἀποθανόντων αὐτῶν, ὅτι εὐχὴ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἐπὶ κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ·
LXX
He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die; because his separation unto God is upon his head.
