¹⁶ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ¹⁷ “Speak to Aaron, saying, None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a blemish may ^(A)approach to offer the bread of his God. ¹⁸ For no one who has a blemish shall draw near, a man ^(B)blind or lame, or one who has a mutilated face ^(C)or a limb too long, ¹⁹ or a man who has an injured foot or an injured hand, ²⁰ or a hunchback or a dwarf or a man with a ^(D)defect in his sight or an itching disease or scabs or ^(E)crushed testicles. ²¹ No man of the offspring of Aaron the priest who has a blemish shall come near to ^(F)offer the Lord's food offerings; since he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God. ²² He may eat the bread of his God, both of ^(G)the most holy and of the ^(H)holy things, ²³ but he shall not go through the veil or approach the altar, because he has a blemish, that he may not ^(I)profane my sanctuaries,^{[a] (J)}for I am the Lord who sanctifies them.” ²⁴ So Moses spoke to Aaron and to his sons and to all the people of Israel.
