4Kamwe asijitie unajisi mwenyewe kutokana na wale watu ambao anahusiana nao kwa kuoana, na hivyo kujitia unajisi. 5“ ‘Kamwe makuhani wasinyoe nywele za vichwa vyao wala wasinyoe pembeni mwa ndevu zao, au kuweka chale kwenye miili yao. 6Lazima wawe watakatifu kwa Mungu wao, na kamwe wasilinajisi jina la Mungu wao. Kwa sababu ndio wanaotoa sadaka za kuteketezwa kwa moto kwa Bwana, chakula cha Mungu wao, hivyo lazima wawe watakatifu. 7“ ‘Kamwe wasioe wanawake waliojinajisi kwa ukahaba, au waliopewa talaka na waume wao, kwa sababu makuhani ni watakatifu kwa Mungu wao. 8Waoneni kuwa watakatifu, kwa sababu ndio wanaotoa chakula cha Mungu wenu. Kumbukeni kuwa ni watakatifu, kwa sababu Mimi Bwana ni mtakatifu, Mimi niwafanyaye ninyi kuwa watakatifu.
