25. and anyone picking up part of the carcass of any of them has to wash his garments, and shall be unclean until evening.

26. ‘Every beast that has a split hoof not completely divided, or does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. Anyone who touches their carcass is unclean.

27. ‘And whatever goes on its paws, among all the creatures that go on all fours, those are unclean to you. Anyone who touches their carcass is unclean until evening,

28. and he who picks up their carcass has to wash his garments, and shall be unclean until evening. They are unclean to you.

29. ‘And these are unclean to you among the creeping creatures that creep on the earth: the mole, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,

30. and the gecko, and the land crocodile, and the sand reptile, and the sand lizard, and the chameleon.

31. ‘These are unclean to you among all that creep. Anyone who touches them when they are dead becomes unclean until evening.

32. ‘And whatever any of them in its dead state falls upon, becomes unclean, whether it is any wooden object or garment or skin or sack, any object in which work is done, it is put in water. And it shall be unclean until evening, then it shall be clean.
