NETBible

He must not go where there is any dead person; he must not defile himself even for his father and his mother.

NET Notes

tc Although the MT has “persons” (plural), the LXX and Syriac have the singular “person” corresponding to the singular adjectival participle “dead” (cf. also Num 6:6).
