Leviticus 21:7-9
International Standard Version
7 “They are not to marry[a] a prostitute or a woman who has been dishonored or who was divorced from her husband, because the priest[b] is holy to his God. 8 Consecrate him, because he’s the one who offers the food of your God. He is to be holy for you, because I, the Lord, the one who sanctifies you, am holy.
9 “Now if the daughter of any priest defiles herself by being a prostitute, she defiles her father. She is to be incinerated.
