וְאִישׁ֙ יִגַּ֣ע בָּהֶ֔ם יִמָּלֵ֥א בַרְזֶ֖ל וְעֵ֣ץ חֲנִ֑ית וּבָאֵ֕שׁ שָׂר֥וֹף יִשָּׂרְפ֖וּ בַּשָּֽׁבֶת׃ (פ)

But the man that toucheth them Must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear; And they shall be utterly burned with fire in their place.

Rashi on II Samuel

Any man wanting to touch them should don. He must cover his body with armor and arm himself with a weapon to cut it down
