6Let them be holy to their God and not make the name of their God common; for the fire offerings of the Lord and the bread of their God are offered by them, and they are to be holy.
7They may not take as wife a loose or common woman, or one who has been put away by her husband: for the priest is holy to his God.
8And he is to be holy in your eyes, for by him the bread of your God is offered; he is to be holy in your eyes, for I the Lord, who make you holy, am holy.
9And if the daughter of a priest makes herself common and by her loose behaviour puts shame on her father, let her be burned with fire.
10And he who is the chief priest among his brothers, on whose head the holy oil has been put, who is marked out to put on the holy robes, may not let his hair go loose or have his clothing out of order as a sign of sorrow.
11He may not go near any dead body or make himself unclean for his father or his mother;
12He may not go out of the holy place or make the holy place of his God common; for the crown of the holy oil of his God is on him: I am the Lord.
13And let him take as his wife one who has not had relations with a man.
14A widow, or one whose husband has put her away, or a common woman of loose behaviour, may not be the wife of a priest; but let him take a virgin from among his people.
15And he may not make his seed unclean among his people, for I the Lord have made him holy.
