Leviticus 11:37

Clean and Unclean Animals

36Nevertheless, a spring or cistern containing water will remain clean, but one who touches a carcass in it will be unclean.37If a carcass falls on any seed for sowing, the seed is clean;38but if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.
