Leviticus 21:7-14

7 aThey shall not take a woman who is profaned by harlotry, nor shall they take a woman divorced from her husband; for he is holy to his God. 8 Therefore, you shall set him apart as holy, for he brings near athe food of your God; he shall be holy to you; for I Yahweh, who makes you holy, am holy. 9 aAlso the daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by harlotry, she profanes her father; she shall be burned with fire.
10 ‘And the priest who is the highest among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil has been poured and 1who has been ordained to wear the garments, ashall not 2uncover his head nor tear his clothes;
11 anor shall he approach any dead person nor defile himself even for his father or his mother; 12 anor shall he go out of the sanctuary nor profane the sanctuary of his God, for bthe dedication of the anointing oil of his God is on him; I am Yahweh. 13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity. 14 aA widow or a divorced woman or one who is profaned by harlotry, these he may not take; but rather he shall take a virgin of his own people as a wife,
