Leviticus 21:5 in Context — Leviticus 21
3 et aussi pour sa sœur encore vierge, qui le touche de près lorsqu’elle n’est pas mariée.
4 Chef parmi son peuple, il ne se rendra point impur en se profanant.
5 Les sacrificateurs ne se feront point de place chauve sur la tête, ils ne raseront point les coins de leur barbe, et ils ne feront point d’incisions dans leur chair.
6 Ils seront saints pour leur Dieu, et ils ne profaneront pas le nom de leur Dieu; car ils offrent à l’Éternel les sacrifices consumés par le feu, l’aliment de leur Dieu: ils seront saints.
7 Ils ne prendront point une femme prostituée ou déshonorée, ils ne prendront point une femme répudiée par son mari, car ils sont saints pour leur Dieu.
