In context
2 isipokuwa yule aliye ndugu wa karibu—mama yake, baba yake, mwanawe, bintiye, nduguye,
3 au dada yake bikira anayemtegemea, kwa kuwa hana mume—kwake huyo anaweza kujitia unajisi.
4 Lakini hatajitia unajisi na kujichafu kwa ajili ya jamaa wengine.
5 Makuhanai hawatanyoa vichwa vyo wala kunyoa pembeni mwa ndevu zao, wala hawatachanja chale miili yao.
6 Watakuwa watakatifu kwa Mungu wao, wala hawataliaibisha jina la Mungu wao, kwa sababu makuhani hutoa sadaka ya Yahweh ya chakula, mkate wa Mungu wao. Kwa hiyo makuhani lazima wawe watakatifu.
7 Hawataoa mwanamke aliye kahaba na aliyetiwa unajisi, na hawataoa mwanamke aliyetalikiwa kutoka kwa mume wake kwa sababu wametengwa kwa ajili ya Mungu wao.
8 Utamtenga kwa sababu yeye ndiye anayetoa mkate kwa Mungu wako. Ni lazima awe mtakatifu, kwa sababu—Mimi, Yahweh, ndimi niwatakasaye nyinyi—pia Mimi mwenyewe ni mtakatifu.
