21 None of the seed of Aaron the Priest that hath a blemish, shall come near to offer the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, having a blemish: he shall not prease to offer the [a]bread of his God.

22 The bread of his God, even of the [b]most holy, and [c]of the holy shall he eat:

23 But he shall not go in unto the [d]veil, nor come near the altar, because he hath a blemish, lest he pollute my Sanctuaries: for I am the Lord that sanctify them.
