³⁸ But if you put water on some seeds and a dead, unclean animal falls on them, they are unclean for you.

³⁹ “‘Also, if an animal which you use for food dies, anyone who touches its body will be unclean until evening. ⁴⁰ Anyone who eats meat from this animal’s dead body must wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. Anyone who picks up the animal’s dead body must wash his clothes and be unclean until evening.
