Leviticus 21:6 in Context — Leviticus 21
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.
8 Tu regarderas un sacrificateur comme saint, car il offre l’aliment de ton Dieu; il sera saint pour toi, car je suis saint, moi, l’Éternel, qui vous sanctifie.
