Leviticus 10:3-11

3Then Moses said to Aaron, “It is what the Lord spoke, saying, ‘By those who 1come near Me I 23will be treated as holy, And before all the people I will 4be honored.’” So Aaron, therefore, kept silent.

4Moses called also to 5Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come forward, carry your 6relatives away from the front of the sanctuary to the outside of the camp.” 5So they came forward and carried them still in their 7tunics to the outside of the camp, as Moses had said. 6Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “8Do not 9uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, so that you will not die and that He will not 10become wrathful against all the congregation. But your 11kinsmen, the whole house of Israel, shall bewail the burning which the Lord has 12brought about. 7You shall not even go out from the doorway of the tent of meeting, or you will die; for 13the Lord’s anointing oil is upon you.” So they did according to the word of Moses.

8The Lord then spoke to Aaron, saying, 9“14Do not drink wine or strong drink, neither you nor your sons with you, when you come into the tent of meeting, so that you will not die--it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations-- 10and 15so as to make a distinction between the holy and the profane, and between the unclean and the clean, 11and 16so as to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which the Lord has spoken to them through Moses.”
