1Yahweh said to Moses, Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, There shall none defile himself for the dead among his people;
2except for his relatives, that is near to him, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
3and for his sister a virgin, that is near to him, that has had no husband; for her may he defile himself.
4He shall not defile himself, [being] a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5They shall not make baldness on their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
6They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God; for the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
7They shall not take a woman that is a prostitute, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy to his God.
