15 a“But the priests, the Levites, bthe sons of Zadok, who kept charge of My sanctuary cwhen the children of Israel went astray from Me, they shall come near Me to minister to Me; and they dshall stand before Me to offer to Me the efat and the blood,” says the Lord God.
16 “They shall aenter My sanctuary, and they shall come near bMy table to minister to Me, and they shall keep My charge.
17 And it shall be, whenever they enter the gates of the inner court, that athey shall put on linen garments; no wool shall come upon them while they minister within the gates of the inner court or within the house.
18 aThey shall have linen turbans on their heads and linen trousers on their bodies; they shall not clothe themselves with anything that causes sweat.
19 When they go out to the outer court, to the outer court to the people, athey shall take off their garments in which they have ministered, leave them in the holy chambers, and put on other garments; and in their holy garments they shall bnot sanctify the people.
20 a“They shall neither shave their heads nor let their hair grow blong, but they shall keep their hair well trimmed.
