Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:
1ΚΑΙ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων· εἶπον τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἀαρὼν καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς· ἐν ταῖς ψυχαῖς οὐ μιανθήσονται ἐν τῷ ἔθνει αὐτῶν,
2But for his kin, that is near unto him, that is , for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
2ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ἐν τῷ οἰκείῳ τῷ ἔγγιστα αὐτῶν, ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ μητρὶ καὶ υἱοῖς καὶ θυγατράσιν, ἐπ᾿ ἀδελφῷ
3And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no husband; for her may he be defiled.
3καὶ ἐπ᾿ ἀδελφῇ παρθένῳ τῇ ἐγγιζούσῃ αὐτῷ, τῇ μὴ ἐκδεδομένῃ ἀνδρί, ἐπὶ τούτοις μιανθήσεται.
4But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
4οὐ μιανθήσεται ἐξάπινα ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ εἰς βεβήλωσιν αὐτοῦ.
5They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
5καὶ φαλάκρωμα οὐ ξυρηθήσεσθε τὴν κεφαλὴν ἐπὶ νεκρῷ καὶ τὴν ὄψιν τοῦ πώγωνος οὐ ξυρήσονται καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς σάρκας αὐτῶν οὐ κατατεμοῦσιν ἐντομίδας.
6They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
6ἅγιοι ἔσονται τῷ Θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσουσι τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτῶν· τὰς γὰρ θυσίας Κυρίου δῶρα τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτῶν αὐτοὶ προσφέρουσι καὶ ἔσονται ἅγιοι.
7They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy unto his God.
7γυναῖκα πόρνην καὶ βεβηλωμένην οὐ λήψονται καὶ γυναῖκα ἐκβεβλημένην ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς, ὅτι ἅγιός ἐστι Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ αὐτοῦ.
8Thou 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.
8καὶ ἁγιάσεις αὐτόν. τὰ δῶρα Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ὑμῶν οὗτος προσφέρει· ἅγιος ἔσται, ὅτι ἅγιος ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς.
9¶ And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
9καὶ θυγάτηρ ἀνθρώπου ἱερέως ἐὰν βεβηλωθῇ τοῦ ἐκπορνεῦσαι, τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς αὐτὴ βεβηλοῖ, ἐπὶ πυρὸς κατακαυθήσεται.
10And he that is the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor rend his clothes;
10Καὶ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ ἐπικεχυμένου ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν τοῦ ἐλαίου τοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ τετελειωμένου ἐνδύσασθαι τὰ ἱμάτια, τὴν κεφαλὴν οὐκ ἀποκιδαρώσει καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια οὐ διαρρήξει,
11Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
11καὶ ἐπὶ πάσῃ ψυχῇ τετελευτηκυίᾳ οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται, ἐπὶ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἐπὶ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐ μιανθήσεται.
12Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the LORD .
12καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων οὐκ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἡγιασμένον τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι τὸ ἅγιον ἔλαιον τὸ χριστὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ· ἐγὼ Κύριος.
13And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
13οὗτος γυναῖκα παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ γένους αὐτοῦ λήψεται·
14A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
14χήραν δὲ καὶ ἐκβεβλημένην καὶ βεβηλωμένην καὶ πόρνην, ταύτας οὐ λήψεται, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ λήψεται γυναῖκα.
15Neither shall he profane his seed among his people: for I the LORD do sanctify him.
15καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ· ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτόν.
16¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
16Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·
17Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
17εἶπον Ἀαρών· ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ γένους σου εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν, τινὶ ἐὰν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος, οὐ προσελεύσεται προσφέρειν τὰ δῶρα τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ.
18For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
18πᾶς ἄνθρωπος, ᾧ ἐστιν ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος, οὐ προσελεύσεται, ἄνθρωπος τυφλὸς ἢ χωλὸς ἢ κολοβόριν ἢ ὠτότμητος
19Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
19ἢ ἄνθρωπος, ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ σύντριμμα χειρός, ἢ σύντριμμα ποδὸς
20Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
20ἢ κυρτὸς ἢ ἔφηλος ἢ πτίλλος τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ἢ ἄνθρωπος, ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ ψώρα ἀγρία, ἢ λειχὴν ἢ μονόρχις,
21No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
21πᾶς ᾧ ἐστιν ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἱερέως, οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ τοῦ προσενεγκεῖν τὰς θυσίας τῷ Θεῷ σου, ὅτι μῶμος ἐν αὐτῷ· τὰ δῶρα τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐ προσελεύσεται προσενεγκεῖν.
22He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
22τὰ δῶρα τοῦ Θεοῦ τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων φάγεται·
23Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I the LORD do sanctify them.
23πλὴν πρὸς τὸ καταπέτασμα οὐ προσελεύσεται καὶ πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ, ὅτι μῶμον ἔχει· καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἅγιον τοῦ Θεοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς.
24And Moses told it unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.
24καὶ ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.
