< Leviticus 21 >

1 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Speak unto the priests, sons of Aaron, and thou hast said unto them, For [any] person [a priest] is not defiled among his people,
And he said Yahweh to Moses say to the priests [the] sons of Aaron and you will say to them for a corpse not he will make himself unclean among kinspeople his.
2 except for his relation who [is] near unto him — for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.
That except for relative his near to him for mother his and for father his and for son his and for daughter his and for brother his.
3 and for his sister, the virgin, who is near unto him, who hath not been to a man; for her he is defiled.
And for sister his the virgin near to him who not she has belonged to a husband for her he will make himself unclean.
4 'A master [priest] doth not defile himself among his people — to pollute himself;
Not he will make himself unclean a husband among kinspeople his to profane himself.
5 they do not make baldness on their head, and the corner of their beard they do not shave, and in their flesh they do not make a cutting;
Not (they will make bald *Q(k)*) baldness on head their and [the] side of beard their not they will shave and in flesh their not they will cut cut[s].
6 they are holy to their God, and they pollute not the name of their God, for the fire-offerings of Jehovah, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.
Holy they will be to God their and not they will profane [the] name of God their for [the] fire offerings of Yahweh [the] food of God their they [are] presenting and they will be a holy thing.
7 'A woman, a harlot, or polluted, they do not take, and a woman cast out from her husband they do not take, for he [is] holy to his God;
A woman a prostitute and a [woman] profaned not they will take and a woman divorced from husband her not they will take for [is] holy he to God his.
8 and thou hast sanctified him, for the bread of thy God he is bringing near; he is holy to thee; for holy [am] I, Jehovah, sanctifying you.
And you will set apart as holy him for [the] food of God your he [is] presenting holy he will be to you for [am] holy I Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy you.
9 'And a daughter of any priest when she polluteth herself by going a-whoring — her father she is polluting; with fire she is burnt.
And a daughter of a man a priest if she will profane herself by acting as a prostitute father her she [is] profaning with fire she will be burned.
10 'And the high priest of his brethren, on whose head is poured the anointing oil, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments, his head doth not uncover, nor rend his garments,
And the priest great more than brothers his whom it was poured on head his - [the] oil of anointing and he has filled hand his to wear the garments head his not he will let loose and garments his not he will tear.
11 nor beside any dead person doth he come; for his father and for his mother he doth not defile himself;
And to any corpses of a dead [person] not he will go for father his and for mother his not he will make himself unclean.
12 nor from the sanctuary doth he go out, nor doth he pollute the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] Jehovah.
And from the sanctuary not he will go out and not he will profane [the] sanctuary of God his for [the] consecration of [the] oil of anointing of God his [is] on him I [am] Yahweh.
13 'And he taketh a wife in her virginity;
And he a woman in virginiti her he will take.
14 widow, or cast out, or polluted one — a harlot — these he doth not take, but a virgin of his own people he doth take [for] a wife,
A widow and a divorced [woman] and a [woman] profaned a prostitute these not he will take that except a virgin from kinspeople his he will take a wife.
15 and he doth not pollute his seed among his people; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying him.'
And not he will profane offspring his among kinspeople his for I [am] Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy him.
16 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
17 'Speak unto Aaron, saying, No man of thy seed to their generations in whom there is blemish doth draw near to bring near the bread of his God,
Speak to Aaron saying a man from offspring your to generations their whom it will be in him a blemish not he will draw near to present [the] food of God his.
18 for no man in whom [is] blemish doth draw near — a man blind, or lame or dwarfed, or enlarged,
For any man whom [is] in him a blemish not he will draw near a man blind or lame or [having] a slit nose or [having] something enlarged.
19 or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,
Or a man whom it will be in him a fracture of a foot or a fracture of a hand.
20 or hump-backed, or a dwarf, or with a mixture in his eye, or a scurvy person, or scabbed, or broken-testicled.
Or a [man] hunchbacked or a [man] thin or a defect in eye his or eczema or scabs or a [man] crushed of testicle.
21 'No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) doth come nigh to bring near the fire-offerings of Jehovah; blemish [is] in him; the bread of his God he doth not come nigh to bring near.
Any man whom [is] in him a blemish from [the] offspring of Aaron the priest not he will draw near to present [the] fire offerings of Yahweh a blemish [is] in him [the] food of God his not he will draw near to present.
22 'Bread of his God — of the most holy things, and of the holy things — he doth eat;
[the] food of God his from [the] holy things of the holy things and from the holy things he will eat.
23 only, unto the vail he doth not enter, and unto the altar he doth not draw nigh; for blemish [is] in him; and he doth not pollute My sanctuaries; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying them.'
Nevertheless to the curtain not he will go and to the altar not he will draw near for a blemish [is] in him and not he will profane sanctuary my for I [am] Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy them.
24 And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel.
And he spoke Moses to Aaron and to sons his and to all [the] people of Israel.
