37. And if a part of any such carcass falls on any planting seed which is to be sown, it remains clean.
38. But if water is put on the seed, and if a part of any such carcass falls on it, it becomes unclean to you.
39. ‘And if any animal which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until evening.
40. He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until evening.
41. ‘And every creeping thing that creeps on the earth shall be an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
42. Whatever crawls on its belly, whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet among all creeping things that creep on the earth—these you shall not eat, for they are an abomination.
