¹⁷ “Speak to Aaron, saying, ‘A man from your offspring throughout their generations, in whom is a physical defect, shall not come near to present your God’s food.

²¹ Any man from Aaron the priest’s offspring in whom is a physical defect shall not come near to present offerings made by fire to^[a] Yahweh; a physical defect is in him; he shall not come near to present his God’s food.

²³ But he must not enter the curtain, and he must not come near to the altar, because a physical defect is in him, and he must not profane my sanctuary, because I am Yahweh, who consecrates them.’”
