And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even.

Verse 22 is found in chapter 19 of Numbers. The regulations detail how those who have touched a corpse must be purified and how contamination can be transmitted to people or objects. Death appears as a source of ritual impurity incompatible with proximity to the sanctuary. The regulation does not deny the reality of death, but establishes a procedure through which the community can recover the ritual condition necessary to participate in camp life.

Und alles, was der Unreine anrührt, wird unrein werden; und welche Seele ihn anrühren wird, soll unrein sein bis an den Abend.
Y todo lo que el inmundo tocare, será inmundo: y la persona que lo tocare, será inmunda hasta la tarde.
Todo lo que toque el impuro quedará impuro, y la persona que lo toque quedará impura hasta el atardecer».
Tout ce que touchera celui qui est impur sera souillé, et la personne qui le touchera sera impure jusqu'au soir.
Sia ancora immondo tutto quello che l’immondo avrà tocco; e la persona che avrà tocco lui sia immonda infino alla sera
E tudo o que tocar o imundo também será imundo; e a pessoa que o tocar será imunda até à tarde.
不潔淨的人所摸的任何東西都不潔淨;摸了這東西的人必不潔淨到晚上。」
