Leviticus 21:4-7 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

4. But a priest must not make himself unclean if the dead person was only one of his slaves.

5. “Priests must not shave their heads bald. They must not shave off the edges of their beards. They must not make any cuts in their bodies.

6. Priests must be holy for their God. They must show respect for God’s name. They offer the bread and special gifts to the Lord, so they must be holy.

7. “A priest serves God in a special way, so he must not marry a woman who has had sexual relations with any other man. He must not marry a prostitute or a divorced woman.
