Parah 9:8 - 9:9

מי חטאת שנפסלו – as for example, that their appearance changed not on account of themselves, and in a similar manner , from the things that invalidate the waters of purification/expiation.

מטמאין את – the person (see also Tractate Kelim, Chapter 1, Mishnayot 1-2).

הטהור לתרומה – whether he touched them with his hands or whether he touched them with his body, they are considered like suitable/appropriate like waters of expiation/purification, and this defilement is from the Rabbis, for from the Torah, since they were made unfit/invalid, their greater defilement spread all over/blossomed, and because of this, it (i.e., the Mishnah text) teaches that “it renders unclean the person who is clean for heave-offering,” which implies especially for heave-offering but not for non-holy offerings.

ואת הטהור לחטאת לא בידיו – that is to say, it does not defile the pure person for a sin/purification offering whether he touched them with his hands or whether he touched them with his body, for the they are considered appropriate/suitable like the waters of purification/expiation, and these that one carries the waters of expiation that have in them [enough] in order for sprinkling or he touches them, he is impure for all things, but for a sin-offering/expiation, however, he is pure.

נטמאו מטמאין את הטהור לתורמה – like the waters of suitable/acceptable sin-offerings/expiation offerings, but a person who is clean for the purification offering, it defiles him if he touched it with his hands, for since they were defiled, they are not worse than the rest of the impure foods and liquids that defile the hands, for we hold that the purification of the waters of purification/sin-offering, when his hands were defiled/made unclean, his body was made unclean.

אפר כשר שנתנו על גבי מים שאינם ראוים לקדש – their law is like the law of the waters of purification/sin-offering that were invalidated.

מטמאין את הטהור לתרומה בידיו ובגופו – like the law of all the rest of the suitable/appropriate waters of expiation/sin-offering, but they do not defile the clean person for a sin-offering, for the waters of expiation/sin-offering do not defile the person who carries them, and the person who touches them, other than the rest of the defilements, not for the purification of the waters of expiation/sin-offering.
