7 They shall not take to wife an whore, or [a]one polluted, neither shall they marry a woman divorced from her husband: for such one is holy unto his God.
8 Thou shalt [b]sanctify him therefore, for he offereth the [c]bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I the Lord which sanctify you, am holy.
9 ¶ If a Priest’s daughter fall to play the whore, she polluteth her father: therefore shall she be burnt with fire.
