הֲרֵינִי נָזִיר כְּמִנְיַן יְמוֹת הַחַמָּה, מוֹנֶה נְזִירוּת כְּמִנְיַן יְמוֹת הַחַמָּה. אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוּדָה, מַעֲשֶׂה הָיָה, כֵּיוָן שֶׁהִשְׁלִים מֵת:

(If one said:) "I shall be a Nazirite as the number of the days of the sun, [365 Naziritisms, as the number of the days of the sun], he counts Naziritisms as the number of the days of the sun. R. Yehudah said: There was such an episode. When he completed (his Naziritisms), he died. [R. Yehudah heard that Rebbi differed with the first tanna, ruling that if one said: "I shall be a Nazirite as the number of the days of the sun," he becomes a Nazir olam, and he adduced this episode to show that he does not become a Nazir olam. For in this episode "he completed (his Naziritisms) and died," and with a Nazir olam, "completion" does not obtain. It is clear, then, that he counts Naziritisms. And this is the halachah.]
