Leviticus 21:4-6

Lexham English Bible

⁴ He must not make himself unclean as a kinsman by marriage,^[a] defiling himself.

⁵ “‘And they shall not shave bald patches on their head, and they shall not shave off the corner of their beard, and they shall not make a cut in their body. ⁶ They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not profane the name of their God, because they are bringing near the offerings made by fire to^[b] Yahweh—their God’s food—and they shall be holy.
