Ezekiel 44:18-20
EasyEnglish Bible
18 They must wear linen cloths around their heads. The trousers that they wear next to their skin must also be made of linen. They must not tie anything around their body that makes them sweat.[a] 19 Before they go out to the outside yard to meet the ordinary people, they must take off their special clothes. They must leave the clothes that they wore when they were serving me in one of the rooms in the holy place. They must put on other clothes before they go out. Then their special clothes will not touch the people and make them holy.
20 The priests must not cut all the hair off their heads. They must not let it grow long either. They must keep their hair short.
