³¹ These are the ones that are unclean to you among all the swarming things. Anyone who touches these creatures^[a] when they die will be unclean until evening. ³² Also, anything they fall on^[b] when they die will become unclean—any wood vessel or garment or article of leather or sackcloth. Any such vessel with which work is done must be immersed in water^[c] and will be unclean until the evening. Then it will become clean. ³³ As for any clay vessel they fall into,^[d] everything in it^[e] will become unclean and you must break it. ³⁴ Any food that may be eaten which becomes soaked with water^[f] will become unclean. Anything drinkable^[g] in any such vessel will become unclean.^{[h] 35} Anything their carcass may fall on will become unclean. An oven or small stove must be smashed to pieces; they are unclean, and they will stay unclean^[i] to you. ³⁶ However, a spring or a cistern which collects water^[j] will be clean, but one who touches the creature’s carcass will be unclean. ³⁷ Now, if such a carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown,^[k] it is clean, ³⁸ but if water is put on the seed and such a carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
