In context
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.
9 Binti yeyote wa kuhani anayejitia unajisi kwa kujifanya kahaba anajifedhehesha mwenyewe. Ni lazima ateketezwe kwa moto.
10 Mtu ambaye ni kuhani mkuu miongoni mwa nduguze, ambaye mafuta ya upako yamekwisha kumiminwa kichwani pake, na ambaye amekwisha kuwekwa wakfu ili kuvaa mavazi maalum ya kuhani mkuu, kamwe hataziacha wazi nywele zake wala hatazirarua nguo zake.
