12 If someone carries sanctified meat in the fold of a garment and the fold touches bread, soup, wine, oil, or any other food, do they become sanctified? “No,” the priests answered. 13 Then Haggai asked: “If a person defiled from contact with a corpse touches any of these, do they become defiled?” The priests answered, “They become defiled.” 14 Then Haggai replied: So is this people, and so is this nation in my sight—oracle of the LORD— And so is all the work of their hands; what they offer there is defiled.
