Leviticus 21:17-24

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 hump-backed, or blear-eyed, or that has lost his eye-lashes, 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.

²⁴And Moses spoke to Aaron and his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
