The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Si quis in agro tetigerit cadaver occisi hominis, aut per se mortui, sive os illius, vel sepulchrum, immundus erit septem diebus.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν ἅψηται ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ πεδίου τραυματίου ἢ νεκροῦ ἢ ὀστέου ἀνθρωπίνου ἢ μνήματος, ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται.
Hebrew (WLC)
וְכֹ֨ל אֲשֶׁר יִגַּ֜ע עַל פְּנֵ֣י הַשָּׂדֶ֗ה בַּֽחֲלַל חֶ֨רֶב֙ א֣וֹ בְמֵ֔ת אֽוֹ בְעֶ֥צֶם אָדָ֖ם א֣וֹ בְקָ֑בֶר יִטְמָ֖א שִׁבְעַ֥ת יָמִֽים

Haydock's commentary

Grave. The Hebrews buried it at a distance from towns, and set up some mark to apprise all people, that they might not be defiled for seven days. (Calmet)
