1THE LORD told Moses to say to the priests, the sons of Aaron: A priest is not to render himself unclean for the death of any of his kin
2except for a near blood relation, that is for mother, father, son, daughter, brother,
3or full sister who is unmarried and a virgin;
4nor is he to make himself unclean for any married woman among his father's kin, and so profane himself.
5Priests are not to make bald patches on their heads as a sign of mourning, or cut the edges of their beards, or gash their bodies.
6They must be holy to their God, and must not profane the name of their God, because they present the food-offerings of the LORD, the food of their God, and they must be holy.
7A priest must not marry a prostitute or a girl who has lost her virginity, or marry a woman divorced from her husband; for he is holy to his God.
8You must keep him holy because he presents the food of your God; you are to regard him as holy, because I the LORD, I who hallow them, am holy.
9When a priest's daughter makes herself profane by becoming a prostitute, she profanes her father. She must be burnt.
10The high priest, the one among his fellows who has had the anointing oil poured on his head and has been ordained to wear the priestly vestments, must neither let his hair hang loose nor tear his clothes.
11He must not enter the place where any dead body lies; not even for his father or his mother may he render himself unclean.
12He must not go out of the sanctuary, for fear that he dishonour the sanctuary of his God, because the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is on him. I am the LORD.
13He is to marry a woman who is still a virgin.
14He is not to marry a widow, a divorced woman, a woman who has lost her virginity, or a prostitute, but only a virgin from his father's kin;
15he must not dishonour his descendants among his father's kin, for I am the LORD who hallows him.
16The LORD told Moses
17to say to Aaron: No man among your descendants for all time who has any physical defect is to come and present the food of his God.
18No man with a defect is to come, whether a blind man, a lame man, a man stunted or overgrown,
19a man deformed in foot or hand,
20or with misshapen brows or a film over his eye or a discharge from it, a man who has a scab or eruption or has had a testicle ruptured.
21No descendant of Aaron the priest who has any defect in his body may approach the altar to present the food-offerings of the LORD; because he has a defect he must not approach the altar to present the food of his God.
22He may eat the bread of God both from the holy-gifts and from the holiest of holy-gifts,
23but not come up to the curtain or approach the altar, because he has a defect in his body; he is not to profane my sanctuaries, for I am the LORD who hallows them.
24Thus Moses spoke to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israelites.
