Leviticus 21:17-24

¹⁷“Say this to Aaron: For all future time, none of your descendants who has any defects on his body will be allowed to come near the altar to offer sacrifices to me which will be like MET my food:

¹⁸No one who is blind or lame or deformed, or whose face is disfigured,

¹⁹no man with a crippled foot or a crippled hand,

²⁰no man who is a hunchback or a dwarf, no man whose eyes are defective, no man who has a skin disease DOU or whose testicles have been damaged is allowed to brings sacrifices.

²¹No descendant of Aaron, the first Supreme Priest, who has any defect is allowed to come to the altar to offer to me, his God, sacrifices that will be burned.

²²Priests who have defects are permitted to eat the various kinds of holy food offered to me.

²³But because of their defects, they must not go near the curtain in the Sacred Tent or near the altar, because if they did that, they would desecrate my Sacred Tent. I am Yahweh, the one who sets those places apart as being holy.”

²⁴So Moses/I told this to Aaron and to his sons and to all the Israeli people.
