¹⁸ No man who has any defect is to come near: no man who is blind, lame, facially disfigured, or deformed; ¹⁹ no man who has a broken foot or hand, ²⁰ or who is a hunchback or a dwarf,^[a](A) or who has an eye defect, a festering rash, scabs,^(B) or a crushed testicle.^{(C) 21} No descendant of Aaron the priest who has a defect is to come near to present the fire offerings to the Lord. He has a defect and is not to come near to present the food of his God. ²² He may eat the food of his God from what is especially holy as well as from what is holy. ²³ But because he has a defect, he must not go near the curtain^(D) or approach the altar. He is not to desecrate My sanctuaries, for I am Yahweh who sets them apart.”^(E)
