| If wool was given to a dyer and the dye burnt it, he would have to pay the owner the value of his wool. But if he dyed it ka`Ur, then if the increase in value is greater than his outlay the owner would give him only the outlay, whereas if the outlay was greater than the increase in value he would have to pay him the amount of the increase, [where wool was handed to a dyer] to dye red and he dyed it black, or to dye black and he dyed it red, R. Meir says that he would have to pay [the owner] for the value of his wool. R. Judah, however, says: if the increase in value is greater than the outlay, the owner would pay the dyer his outlay, whereas if the outlay exceeded the increase in value he would have to pay him no more than the increase. |
קמא 9.4 הנותן צמר לצבע, והקדיחתו יורה-- נותן לו דמי צמרו׃ צבעו כעור-- אם השבח יתר על היציאה, נותן לו את ההוצאה; ואם ההוצאה יתרה על השבח, נותן לו את השבח׃ לצבוע לו אדום וצבעו שחור, שחור וצבעו אדום-- רבי מאיר אומר, נותן לו דמי צמרו׃ רבי יהודה אומר, אם השבח יתרה על ההוצאה, נותן לו את ההוצאה; ואם ההוצאה יתרה על השבח, נותן לו את השבח |
| If one man robbed another to the extent of a Perutah and took [nevertheless] an oath [that he did not do so], he would have to convey it personally to him [even as far as] to Media. He may give it neither to his son nor to his agent, though he may give it to the sheriff of the court of law. If the plaintiff died, the robber would have to restore it to the heirs. |
קמא 9.5 הגוזל את חברו שווה פרוטה, ונשבע לו-- יוליכנו אחריו, אפילו למדיי׃ לא ייתן לא לבנו ולא לשלוחו, אבל נותן הוא לשלוח בית דין׃ ואם מת, יחזיר ליורשיו |
