28. Anyone who picks up their dead bodies must wash his clothes. He will be unclean until evening. These animals are unclean for you.

29. “‘These crawling animals are unclean for you: moles, rats, all kinds of great lizards,

30. geckos, crocodiles, lizards, sand reptiles and chameleons.

31. These crawling animals are unclean for you. Anyone who touches their dead bodies will be unclean until evening.

32. “‘If an unclean animal dies and falls on something, that thing will also become unclean. The animal might fall on a thing made from wood, cloth, leather or rough cloth. It does not matter what the thing was used for. Whatever the animal falls on must be washed with water. It will be unclean until evening. Then it will become clean again.

33. The dead, unclean animal might fall into a clay bowl. If it does, anything in the bowl will become unclean. And you must break the bowl.

34. If water from the unclean clay bowl gets on any food, that food will become unclean.
