Severity : Explains what is the impact of the defect on the application /business . It also depends on how the bug is analysed . A tester can say a bug is High severity but after the triage call with DEV it can reduced to Medium but if businees says that this is very improtant and needs to be fixed at any cost then again the SEV may become HIGH.
Priority : Priority defines when can we fix this issue . If a defect is a show stopper and tester not able proceed further then the PRI may become HIGH(1) . Though the SEV is LOW. From the previous def of SEVEITY if business says that the bug definetly needs to be fixed so SEV is HIGH but he says that do it in th next release . Then the priority becomes LOW.
