Leviticus 21:16-21
New American Standard Bible
16 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 17 “Speak to Aaron, saying, ‘None of your [a]descendants throughout their generations who has an impairment shall approach to offer the (A)food of his God. 18 (B)For no one who has an impairment shall approach: a man who is blind, or one who limps, or one who has a (C)slit nose, or one with any conspicuous feature, 19 or someone who has a broken foot or broken hand, 20 or a contorted back, or one who is a dwarf, or has a spot in his eye, or a festering rash or scabs, or (D)crushed testicles. 21 No man among the [b]descendants of Aaron the priest who has an impairment is to come forward to offer the Lord’s offerings by fire; since he has an impairment, he shall not come forward to offer (E)the food of his God.
