Leviticus 21:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 “‘And they shall not shave bald patches on their head, and they shall not shave off the corner of their beard, and they shall not make a cut in their body. 6 They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not profane the name of their God, because they are bringing near the offerings made by fire to[a] Yahweh—their God’s food—and they shall be holy.
7 “‘They shall not marry[b] a woman who is a prostitute and defiled, nor shall they marry[c] a woman divorced from her husband, because each priest[d] is holy for his God.
