13. Whoever touches the dead body of anyone that is dead and does not remove the sin has defiled the tabernacle of the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from Israel; because the water of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean, and his uncleanness shall be upon him.
14. This is the law when anyone dies in a tent; all that come into the tent and all that are in the tent shall be unclean seven days.
15. And every open vessel which has no lid fastened upon it shall be unclean.
16. And whoever touches one that is slain with a sword in the open fields or a dead body or a human bone or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
