Leviticus 21:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ “ ‘Suppose a priest’s daughter makes herself “unclean” by becoming a prostitute. Then she brings shame on her father. She must be burned to death.

¹⁰ “ ‘The high priest is the one among his brothers whose head has been anointed with olive oil. He has been appointed to wear the priest’s clothes. When someone dies, the high priest must not let his own hair hang loose. He must not tear his clothes to show how sad he is. ¹¹ He must not enter a place where there is a dead body. He must not make himself “unclean,” even if his father or mother dies.
