Mga Tuntunin tungkol sa mga Pari
21 Inutusan ng Panginoon si Moises na sabihin ito sa mga paring mula sa angkan ni Aaron:
Huwag ninyong dudungisan ang inyong sarili sa pamamagitan ng paglapit o paghipo sa bangkay ng tao, 2 maliban na lamang kung ang namatay ay malapit ninyong kamag-anak gaya ng inyong ina, ama, anak, kapatid na lalaki, 3 o dalagang kapatid at walang inaasahan kundi kayo. 4 Huwag din ninyong dungisan ang inyong sarili sa inyong pagpunta sa libing ng kamag-anak ng inyong asawa. 5 Kung kayoʼy magluluksa sa patay, huwag ninyong aahitin ang inyong buhok o puputulan ang inyong balbas o susugatan ang inyong katawan. 6 Italaga ninyo ang inyong sarili para sa akin na inyong Dios, at huwag ninyong lapastanganin ang aking pangalan. Itoʼy dapat ninyong gawin dahil kayo ang nag-aalay ng mga handog sa pamamagitan ng apoy,[a] para sa akin na siyang pagkain ko.
7 Huwag kayong mag-asawa ng babaeng marumi dahil nagbebenta siya ng panandaliang aliw, o ng babaeng hiwalay sa asawa, dahil kayoʼy hinirang ko para sa aking sarili. 8 Kinakailangang kayo ay ituring na banal ng inyong kapwa Israelita dahil kayo ang nag-aalay ng mga handog para sa akin.[b] Dapat nila kayong ituring na banal dahil ako ang Panginoon ay banal at ginawa kong banal ang aking mga tao.[c]
9 Kung kayoʼy may anak na babae na nagdudulot ng kahihiyan sa inyo dahil sa nagbebenta siya ng panandaliang-aliw, siyaʼy ituturing na marumi, dapat siyang sunugin.
10 Kung ang punong pari[d] ay namatayan ng kamag-anak, huwag niyang guguluhin ang kanyang buhok ni pupunitin ang kanyang damit bilang tanda ng pagluluksa. 11 Dapat din niyang iwasan ang paglapit sa patay kahit na iyon ay kanyang ama o ina. 12 At dahil siyaʼy itinalaga sa akin bilang punong pari sa pamamagitan ng pagpapahid sa kanya ng langis ng pagtatalaga, hindi siya dapat umalis sa Toldang Tipanan dahil kapag siyaʼy umalis doon at sumama sa libing, marurumihan ang Tolda. Ako ang Panginoon.
13-14 Kung ang punong pari ay mag-aasawa, dapat Israelitang katulad niya at tunay na dalaga. Huwag siyang mag-aasawa ng biyuda, o ng babaeng hiwalay sa asawa, o ng babaeng marumi na nagbebenta ng panandaliang-aliw, 15 upang sa ganoon ay walang maging kapintasan ang mga anak niya. Ako ang Panginoong humirang sa kanya para siyaʼy maging banal.
16 Inutusan ng Panginoon si Moises 17 na sabihin ito kay Aaron:
Walang sinuman sa angkan mo hanggang sa susunod pang mga henerasyon na may kapansanan ang katawan na makapaghahandog sa akin ng mga handog na pagkain. 18 Hindi maaari ang bulag, pilay, may kapansanan ang mukha, may kapansanan ang isang bahagi ng katawan, 19 bali ang paa o kamay, 20 kuba, unano, may sakit sa mata o sa balat, o baog. 21-23 Kaya kung ang angkan ni Aaron ay may kapansanan sa katawan, hindi siya maaaring maghandog sa akin ng mga handog sa pamamagitan ng apoy na siyang pagkain ko. Hindi rin siya maaaring pumasok sa Banal na Lugar o lumapit sa altar dahil madudungisan ang aking Tolda. Pero maaari siyang kumain ng mga pagkaing bahagi ng mga pari sa mga banal at pinakabanal na handog. Ako ang Panginoong nagtalaga sa inyo para maging akin.
24 Ang lahat ng ito ay sinabi ni Moises kay Aaron at sa mga anak niyang lalaki at sa lahat ng mga Israelita.

King James Version
Leviticus 21
King James Version
21 And the Lord said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:
2 But for his kin, that is near unto him, that is, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.
3 And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no husband; for her may he be defiled.
4 But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
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.
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.
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.
8 Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I the Lord, which sanctify you, am holy.
9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
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;
11 Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
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.
13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
15 Neither shall he profane his seed among his people: for I the Lord do sanctify him.
16 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
19 Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
20 Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
21 No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
22 He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
23 Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I the Lord do sanctify them.
24 And Moses told it unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.

The Holiness of Priests
21 The Lord said to Moses: Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them:
No one shall defile himself for a dead person among his relatives, 2 except for his nearest kin: his mother, his father, his son, his daughter, his brother; 3 likewise, for a virgin sister, close to him because she has had no husband, he may defile himself for her. 4 But he shall not defile himself as a husband among his people and so profane himself. 5 They shall not make bald spots upon their heads, or shave off the edges of their beards, or make any gashes in their flesh. 6 They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God; for they offer the Lord’s offerings by fire, the food of their God; therefore they shall be holy. 7 They shall not marry a prostitute or a woman who has been defiled; neither shall they marry a woman divorced from her husband. For they are holy to their God, 8 and you shall treat them as holy, since they offer the food of your God; they shall be holy to you, for I the Lord, I who sanctify you, am holy. 9 When the daughter of a priest profanes herself through prostitution, she profanes her father; she shall be burned to death.
10 The priest who is exalted above his fellows, on whose head the anointing-oil has been poured and who has been consecrated to wear the vestments, shall not dishevel his hair, nor tear his vestments. 11 He shall not go where there is a dead body; he shall not defile himself even for his father or mother. 12 He shall not go outside the sanctuary and thus profane the sanctuary of his God; for the consecration of the anointing-oil of his God is upon him: I am the Lord. 13 He shall marry only a woman who is a virgin. 14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or a woman who has been defiled, a prostitute, these he shall not marry. He shall marry a virgin of his own kin, 15 that he may not profane his offspring among his kin; for I am the Lord; I sanctify him.
16 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 17 Speak to Aaron and say: No one of your offspring throughout their generations who has a blemish may approach to offer the food of his God. 18 For no one who has a blemish shall draw near, one who is blind or lame, or one who has a mutilated face or a limb too long, 19 or one who has a broken foot or a broken hand, 20 or a hunchback, or a dwarf, or a man with a blemish in his eyes or an itching disease or scabs or crushed testicles. 21 No descendant of Aaron the priest who has a blemish shall come near to offer the Lord’s offerings by fire; since he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the food of his God. 22 He may eat the food of his God, of the most holy as well as of the holy. 23 But he shall not come near the curtain or approach the altar, because he has a blemish, that he may not profane my sanctuaries; for I am the Lord; I sanctify them. 24 Thus Moses spoke to Aaron and to his sons and to all the people of Israel.

Rules for Priests
21 The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron,(A) and say to them: ‘A priest must not make himself ceremonially unclean(B) for any of his people who die,(C) 2 except for a close relative, such as his mother or father,(D) his son or daughter, his brother, 3 or an unmarried sister who is dependent on him since she has no husband—for her he may make himself unclean.(E) 4 He must not make himself unclean for people related to him by marriage,[a] and so defile himself.
5 “‘Priests must not shave(F) their heads or shave off the edges of their beards(G) or cut their bodies.(H) 6 They must be holy to their God(I) and must not profane the name of their God.(J) Because they present the food offerings to the Lord,(K) the food of their God,(L) they are to be holy.(M)
7 “‘They must not marry women defiled by prostitution or divorced from their husbands,(N) because priests are holy to their God.(O) 8 Regard them as holy,(P) because they offer up the food of your God.(Q) Consider them holy, because I the Lord am holy—I who make you holy.(R)
9 “‘If a priest’s daughter defiles herself by becoming a prostitute, she disgraces her father; she must be burned in the fire.(S)
10 “‘The high priest, the one among his brothers who has had the anointing oil poured on his head(T) and who has been ordained to wear the priestly garments,(U) must not let his hair become unkempt[b] or tear his clothes.(V) 11 He must not enter a place where there is a dead body.(W) He must not make himself unclean,(X) even for his father or mother,(Y) 12 nor leave the sanctuary(Z) of his God or desecrate it, because he has been dedicated by the anointing oil(AA) of his God. I am the Lord.
13 “‘The woman he marries must be a virgin.(AB) 14 He must not marry a widow, a divorced woman, or a woman defiled by prostitution, but only a virgin from his own people, 15 so that he will not defile his offspring among his people. I am the Lord, who makes him holy.’”
16 The Lord said to Moses, 17 “Say to Aaron: ‘For the generations to come none of your descendants who has a defect(AC) may come near to offer the food of his God.(AD) 18 No man who has any defect(AE) may come near: no man who is blind(AF) or lame,(AG) disfigured or deformed; 19 no man with a crippled foot or hand, 20 or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles.(AH) 21 No descendant of Aaron the priest who has any defect(AI) is to come near to present the food offerings to the Lord.(AJ) He has a defect; he must not come near to offer the food of his God.(AK) 22 He may eat the most holy food of his God,(AL) as well as the holy food; 23 yet because of his defect,(AM) he must not go near the curtain or approach the altar, and so desecrate my sanctuary.(AN) I am the Lord, who makes them holy.(AO)’”
24 So Moses told this to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israelites.
