17. Say to Aaron: A man from your offspring, throughout their families, who has a blemish, shall not offer the bread to his God.
18. Neither shall he approach to minister to him: if he is blind, if he is lame, if he is small, or large, or has a crooked nose,
19. if his foot or hand is broken,
20. if he has a bulging back or bleary eyes, or if he has a white spot in his eye, or a chronic scab, or a skin disease on his body, or a hernia.
21. Anyone from the offspring of Aaron, the priest, who has a blemish, shall not approach to offer sacrifices to the Lord, nor the bread to his God.
22. Nevertheless, he shall eat from the loaves which are offered in the Sanctuary.
23. But even so, he may not enter within the veil, nor approach to the altar. For he has a blemish, and he must not contaminate my Sanctuary. I am the Lord, who sanctifies them.
24. Therefore, Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all of Israel, everything that had been commanded to him.
