| 3 | also for his virgin sister, who is near to him because she has had no husband; for her he may defile himself. | or his virgin sister (who is near to him because she has had no husband; for her he may make himself unclean). | or an unmarried sister who is dependent on him since she has no husband—for her he may make himself unclean. | |
