Leviticus 21:16 — Leviticus 22:12
16 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17 Speak to Aaron, saying, No one of your seed throughout their generations who has a defect shall approach to present the food of his God.
18 For no one who has a defect shall approach: one who is blind or lame or with a disfigured nose or with an extended limb,
19 Or one who has a broken foot or a broken hand,
20 Or a hunchback or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye or eczema or scale or crushed testicles.
21 No one of the seed of Aaron the priest who has a defect shall come near to present Jehovah’s offerings by fire. He has a defect; he shall not come near to present the food of his God.
22 He may eat the food of his God, both of the most holy and of the holy,
23 But he shall not go in unto the veil or come near to the altar, because he has a defect, so that he does not profane My holy places; for I am Jehovah who sanctifies them.
24 So Moses spoke to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel.
CHAPTER 22
1 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Tell Aaron and his sons to be careful with the holy things of the children of Israel, which they sanctify to Me, so that they do not profane My holy name; I am Jehovah.
3 Say to them, If anyone among all your seed throughout your generations who approaches the holy things, which the children of Israel sanctify to Jehovah, and his uncleanness is upon him, that person shall be cut off from before Me; I am Jehovah.
4 No one of the seed of Aaron who is a leper or who has a discharge may eat of the holy things until he is clean. And whoever touches anything that is unclean because of contact with a dead person, or a man whose seed of copulation has gone from him,
5 Or whoever touches any creeping thing by which he may be made unclean, or a man by whom he may be made unclean, whatever his uncleanness,
6 The person who touches any such thing shall be unclean until the evening and shall not eat of the holy things unless he has bathed his body in water.
7 And when the sun sets, he shall be clean; and afterward he may eat of the holy things, because it is his food.
8 He shall not eat an animal which has died or is torn by beasts to become unclean by it; I am Jehovah.
9 They shall therefore keep My charge, so that they do not bring sin upon themselves because of it and die by it because they profane it; I am Jehovah who sanctifies them.
10 No stranger may eat any holy thing; a sojourner with a priest or a hired servant shall not eat any holy thing.
11 But if a priest acquires anyone through a purchase with his money, that one may eat of it; and those who are born in his house may eat of his food.
12 And if a priest’s daughter is married to a stranger, she shall not eat of the heave offering of the holy things.
