12. He shall not go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am Yahweh.
13. “‘He shall take a wife in her virginity.
14. A widow, or one divorced, or a woman who has been defiled, or a prostitute, these he shall not marry: but a virgin of his own people shall he take as a wife.
15. He shall not profane his offspring among his people, for I am Yahweh who sanctifies him.’”
16. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
17. “Say to Aaron, ‘None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a defect may approach to offer the bread of his God.
18. For whatever man he is that has a defect, he shall not draw near: a blind man, or a lame, or he who has a flat nose, or any deformity,
19. or a man who has an injured foot, or an injured hand,
20. or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye, or an itching disease, or scabs, or who has damaged testicles.
21. No man of the offspring of Aaron the priest who has a defect shall come near to offer the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. Since he has a defect, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
22. He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
