Consecrated workers
17 No Israelite daughter is allowed to be a consecrated worker.[a] Neither is any Israelite son allowed to be a consecrated worker.[b] 18 Don’t bring a female prostitute’s fee or a male prostitute’s[c] payment to the Lord your God’s temple to pay a solemn promise because both of these things are detestable to the Lord your God.
