Leviticus 21:1-4 ▼

1 And the LORD said to Moses, Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:

2 But for his kin, that is near to him, that is, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,

3 And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh to him, who hath had no husband: for her he may be defiled.

4 But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
