Leviticus 21:14-23

¹⁴But a widow, or one that is put away, or profaned, or a harlot, these he shall not take; but he shall take for a wife a virgin of his own people.

¹⁵And he shall not profane his seed among his people: I am the Lord that sanctifies him.

¹⁶And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

¹⁷Say to Aaron, A man of thy tribe throughout your generations, who shall have a blemish on him, shall not draw nigh to offer the gifts of his God.

¹⁸No man who has a blemish on him shall draw nigh; a man lame, blind, with his nose disfigured, or his ears cut,

¹⁹a man who has a broken hand or a broken foot,

²⁰or humpbacked, or bleary-eyed, or that has lost his eyelashes, or a man who has a malignant ulcer, or tetter, or one that has lost a testicle.

²¹Whoever of the seed of Aaron the priest has a blemish on him, shall not draw nigh to offer sacrifices to thy God, because he has a blemish on him; he shall not draw nigh to offer the gifts of God.

²²The gifts of God are most holy, and he shall eat of the holy things.

²³Only he shall not approach the veil, and he shall not draw nigh to the altar, because he has a blemish; and he shall not profane the sanctuary of his God, for I am the Lord that sanctifies them.
