| 1 | And YHWH says to Moses, “Speak to the priests, sons of Aaron, and you have said to them: No one defiles himself for a [dead] person among his people, | And the LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, No one shall make himself unclean for the dead among his people, | The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them: ‘A priest must not make himself ceremonially unclean for any of his people who die, | |
| 2 | except for his relation who [is] near to him: for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother, | except for his closest relatives, his mother, his father, his son, his daughter, his brother, | except for a close relative, such as his mother or father, his son or daughter, his brother, | |
| 3 | and for his sister, the virgin, who is near to him, who has not been to a man; he is defiled for her. | 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. | |
| 4 | A master [priest] does not defile himself among his people—to defile himself; | He shall not make himself unclean as a husband among his people and so profane himself. | He must not make himself unclean for people related to him by marriage, and so defile himself. | |
