17And it shall come to pass, that when they enterH935 in at the gatesH8179 of the innerH6442 courtH2691, they shall be clothedH3847 with linenH6593 garmentsH899; and no woolH6785 shall comeH5927 upon them, while they ministerH8334 in the gatesH8179 of the innerH6442 courtH2691, and withinH1004. 18They shall have linenH6593 headdressesH6287 upon their headsH7218, and shall have linenH6593 breechesH4370 upon their loinsH4975; they shall not girdH2296 themselves with any thing that causeth sweatH3154.1 19And when they go forthH3318 into the outerH2435 courtH2691, even into the outerH2435 courtH2691 to the peopleH5971, they shall put offH6584 their garmentsH899 in which they ministeredH8334, and layH3240 them in the holyH6944 chambersH3957, and they shall putH3847 on otherH312 garmentsH899; and they shall not sanctifyH6942 the peopleH5971 with their garmentsH899. 20Neither shall they shaveH1548 their headsH7218, nor allow their locksH6545 to grow longH7971; they shall onlyH3697 cut the hair of their headsH7218. 21Neither shall any priestH3548 drinkH8354 wineH3196, when they enterH935 into the innerH6442 courtH2691. 22Neither shall they takeH3947 for their wivesH802 a widowH490, nor her that is put awayH1644: but they shall takeH3947 maidensH1330 of the seedH2233 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or a widowH490 that had a priestH3548 before.23 23And they shall teachH3384 my peopleH5971 the difference between the holyH6944 and profaneH2455, and cause them to discernH3045 between the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889. 24And in controversyH7379 they shall standH5975 in judgmentH8199; and they shall judgeH8199 it according to my judgmentsH4941: and they shall keepH8104 my lawsH8451 and my statutesH2708 in all my assembliesH4150; and they shall hallowH6942 my sabbathsH7676. 25And they shall comeH935 near no deadH4191 personH120 to defileH2930 themselves: but for fatherH1, or for motherH517, or for sonH1121, or for daughterH1323, for brotherH251, or for sisterH269 that hath had no husbandH376, they may defileH2930 themselves. 26And afterH310 he is cleansedH2893, they shall reckonH5608 to him sevenH7651 daysH3117. 27And in the dayH3117 that he goethH935 into the sanctuaryH6944, to the innerH6442 courtH2691, to ministerH8334 in the sanctuaryH6944, he shall offerH7126 his sin offeringH2403, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. 28And it shall be to them for an inheritanceH5159: I am their inheritanceH5159: and ye shall giveH5414 them no possessionH272 in IsraelH3478: I am their possessionH272. 29They shall eatH398 the meat offeringH4503, and the sin offeringH2403, and the trespass offeringH817; and every dedicated thingH2764 in IsraelH3478 shall be theirs.4 30And the firstH7225 of all the firstfruitsH1061 of all things, and every oblationH8641 of all, of every sort of your oblationsH8641, shall be the priest’sH3548: ye shall also giveH5414 to the priestH3548 the firstH7225 of your doughH6182, that he may cause the blessingH1293 to restH5117 in thy houseH1004.5 31The priestsH3548 shall not eatH398 of any thing that is dead of itselfH5038, or tornH2966, whether of fowlH5775 or beastH929.
