35. And anything on which one of their dead bodies falls shall become unclean: an oven or a stove must be broken—they are unclean and shall be unclean for you.

36. Surely a spring or a cistern collecting water shall be clean, but that which touches their dead body shall become unclean.

37. And when one of their dead bodies falls on any seed for sowing, it is clean.
