31. Among all the swarming creatures that move on the ground, these are unclean for you. Whoever touches their dead bodies will be unclean until evening.

32. When the dead body of one of these creatures falls on something, that thing will be unclean. It may be a wooden article, clothing, leather, a sack, or anything used for any purpose. It should be put in water and will be unclean until evening. Then it will be clean ⌊again⌋.

33. “If any of these creatures falls into a piece of pottery, break the pottery because everything in it is unclean.

34. If water ⌊from that pottery⌋ touches any food, the food is unclean. Any liquid that you drink from that pottery is unclean.

35. Anything on which their dead bodies fall is unclean. If it is an oven or a stove, smash it. It is unclean and will remain unclean for you.

36. However, a spring or a cistern holding water will remain clean. But anyone who touches their dead bodies will be unclean.

37. If their dead bodies fall on seed that is to be planted, the seed is clean.

38. But if water is poured on the seed and their dead bodies fall on it, the seed is unclean for you.
