Leviticus 21:8 in other translations
Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I the LORD, which sanctify you, am holy.
You are to regard him as holy, since he presents the food of your God. He shall be holy to you, because I the LORD am holy—I who set you apart.
Therefore you shall sanctify him, for he offers the bread of your God. He shall be holy to you, for I the LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.

In context
5 Neither shall they shave their head, nor their beard, nor make incisions in their flesh.
6 They shall be holy to their God, and shall not profane his name. For they offer the burnt offering of the Lord, and the bread of their God: and therefore they shall be holy.
7 They shall not take to wife a harlot or a vile prostitute, nor one that has been put away from her husband: because they are consecrated to their God,
8 And offer the loaves of proposition. Let them therefore be holy because I also am holy: the Lord, who sanctify them.
9 If the daughter of a priest be taken in whoredom and dishonour the name of her father, she shall be burnt with fire.
10 The high priest, that is to say, the priest who is the greatest among his brethren, upon whose head the oil of unction hath been poured; and whose hands have been consecrated for the priesthood; and who hath been vested with the holy vestments. He shall not uncover his head: he shall not rend his garments.
11 Nor shall he go in at all to any dead person: not even for his father, or his mother, shall he be defiled.
