1
Yahweh 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;
2
except 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,
3
and for his sister a virgin, that is near to him, that has had no husband; for her may he defile himself.
4
He shall not defile himself, [being] a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5
They shall not make baldness on their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
6
They 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.
