Vulgate (Clementine)
Vas autem fictile, in quo cocta est, confringetur ; quod si vas æneum fuerit, defricabitur, et lavabitur aqua.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ σκεῦος ὀστράκινον οὗ ἐὰν ἑψεθῇ ἐν αὐτῷ συντριβήσεται· ἐὰν δὲ ἐν σκεύει χαλκῷ ἑψεθῇ, ἐκτρίψει αὐτὸ καὶ ἐκκλύσει ὕδατι.
Hebrew (WLC) shown from Leviticus 6:21
וּכְלִי חֶ֛רֶשׂ אֲשֶׁ֥ר תְּבֻשַּׁל בּ֖וֹ יִשָּׁבֵ֑ר וְאִם בִּכְלִ֤י נְחֹ֨שֶׁת֙ בֻּשָּׁ֔לָה וּמֹרַ֥ק וְשֻׁטַּ֖ף בַּמָּֽיִם

Haydock's commentary

Sodden, or boiled. Such vessels, of private people, as had been used to boil part of the victim, (1 Kings ii. 13,) were either to be abandoned to the service of the altar, or broken, &c. (Calmet)

Earthen vessels might imbibe some part of the consecrated juice. (Menochius)
