Levi Jubilee2 21:3  and for his virgin sister, that is near unto him, who has had no husband; for her he may be defiled.
Levi Jubilee2 21:4  He shall not defile himself for the prince among his people, to profane himself.
Levi Jubilee2 21:5  They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
Levi Jubilee2 21:6  They shall be holy unto their God and not profane the name of their God; for the offerings of the LORD made by fire [and] the bread of their God they do offer; therefore, they shall be holy.
Levi Jubilee2 21:7  They shall not take a wife [that is] a whore or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband; for he [is] holy unto his God.
Levi Jubilee2 21:8  Thou shalt sanctify him, therefore, for he offers the bread of thy God; he shall be holy unto thee; for I the LORD, who sanctify you, [am] holy.
Levi Jubilee2 21:9  And the daughter of the man [who is a] priest, if she begins to fornicate, she profanes her father; she shall be burnt with fire.
Levi Jubilee2 21:10  And [he that is] the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil was poured and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head nor rend his clothes;
Levi Jubilee2 21:11  neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father or for his mother;
Levi Jubilee2 21:12  neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God, for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I [am] the LORD.
Levi Jubilee2 21:14  A widow or a divorced woman or profane [or] a harlot, these he shall not take, but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
Levi Jubilee2 21:15  Neither shall he profane his seed among his people, for I AM he that sanctifies him.

Levi Jubilee2 21:18  For no man in whom there is a blemish, shall approach: a blind man or a lame or he that lacks any thing or has any thing superfluous
Levi Jubilee2 21:20  or crookbacked or a dwarf or that has a blemish in his eye or has scurvy or [is] scabbed or has his stones broken.
Levi Jubilee2 21:21  No man that has a blemish of the seed of Aaron, the priest, shall come near to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire. He has a blemish; he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
