²² Anything touched by the unclean person will be unclean; and any person touching it will be unclean till evening.

¹³ Then Haggai said, Will any of these be made unclean by the touch of one who is unclean through touching a dead body? And the priests answering said, It will be made unclean.

² If anyone becomes unclean through touching unconsciously some unclean thing, such as the dead body of an unclean beast or of unclean cattle or of any unclean animal which goes flat on the earth, he will be responsible:

¹⁹ And flesh touched by any unclean thing may not be taken for food: it is to be burned with fire; and as for the flesh of the peace-offerings, everyone who is clean may take it as food:

⁵ And anyone touching his bed is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.

¹⁹ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:

²⁰ These are the things which make a man unclean; but to take food with unwashed hands does not make a man unclean.

²¹ Because from inside, from the heart of men, come evil thoughts and unclean pleasures,

²² The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts:

²³ All these evil things come from inside, and make the man unclean.
