“and for his virgin sister who is near to him, who has had no husband; for her he may defile himself.”
“and his virgin sister who is near to him, who has no husband; he may defile himself for her.”
“And for a maiden sister, who hath had no husband.”
“And for his sister, a virgin, for she is his near relation and has had no husband, he may make himself unclean.”
“And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no husband; for her may he be defiled.”
The Lord also said to Moses: Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and you shall say to them: Do not allow a priest to be contaminated by the death of his citizens,
except only by his blood-relatives and near-relatives, that is, by a father or mother, or by a son or daughter, or also a brother,
or a virgin sister, who is not married to a husband.
But not even by the leader of his people shall he be contaminated.
Neither shall they shave their head or their beard, and they shall not make incisions in their flesh.
They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not pollute his name. For they offer the incense of the Lord and the bread of their God, and because of this they shall be holy.
