Leviticus 21:20-24 New English Translation (NET)

20. or a hunchback, or a dwarf, or one with a spot in his eye, or a festering eruption, or a feverish rash, or a crushed testicle.

21. No man from the descendants of Aaron the priest who has a physical flaw may step forward to present the Lord’s gifts; he has a physical flaw, so he must not step forward to present the food of his God.

22. He may eat both the most holy and the holy food of his God,

23. but he must not go into the veil-canopy or step forward to the altar because he has a physical flaw. Thus he must not profane my holy places, for I am the Lord who sanctifies them.’”

24. So Moses spoke these things to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites.
