Leviticus 21:4

Bible in Basic English 1965

But let him, being a chief among his people, not make himself unclean in such a way as to put shame on himself.

See the chapter Copy

And for his sister, a virgin, for she is his near relation and has had no husband, he may make himself unclean.

They are not to have their hair cut off for the dead, or the hair on their chins cut short, or make cuts in their flesh.
