In what case does this apply? When [the hive’s] mouth is outdoors. However, if the mouth is inside [the house], and an olive-sized piece of corpse is located outdoors either below or above [the hive], any [utensil] that is directly below or above the ol-ive-sized piece, or anything inside [the hive], becomes tamei. Anything that is not di-rectly [below or above] the olive-sized piece and whatever is inside either [the hive] and the house remains tahor. [If the piece of corpse is located] inside [either the hive] or the house, everything becomes tamei.

[If the hive] is located one handbreadth above the ground, and there is tumah below, [the hive], inside the house, or inside or above [the hive], everything becomes tamei.
