16 They will come into my sanctuary, and they will approach my table to minister to me. They will keep my charge.
17 When they come through the gates to the inner courtyard, they will wear linen garments. They won’t wear any wool when they minister at the gates of the inner courtyard or in the temple.
18 They will have linen turbans on their heads and linen undergarments around their waists. They won’t wear anything that makes them sweat.
19 When they go out to the outer courtyard to the people, they will remove the garments in which they were ministering. They will lay them aside in the holy chambers and wear other clothing. They must not transfer holiness to the people through their clothing.
20 They must neither shave their heads nor let their hair grow long, but they will trim the hair on their heads.
21 None of the priests should drink wine when they come into the inner courtyard.
22 They must not marry widows or divorced women, but only Israelite virgins. Priests may, however, marry the widows of other priests.
