פסחים פרק ט׳ משנה י"א

11

In the case of two individuals whose Paschal lambs became intermingled and each person was the only one registered for his offering, what should they do? This person draws one of the Paschal lambs for himself and that person draws one for himself; this person registers someone from the marketplace with him on his Paschal lamb and that person registers someone from the marketplace with him on his Paschal lamb. Once this has been done, this one comes to that person from the marketplace who has been added to the other person’s sacrifice, and that one comes to this person from the marketplace who has been added to the first person’s sacrifice, and this is what they say: If this Paschal lamb is mine, you are withdrawn from yours and you are registered for mine, and if this is your Paschal lamb, I am withdrawn from mine and I am hereby registered for yours, as described previously. The reason it is necessary for each individual to add an additional person to his Paschal lamb, is to ensure that when each person withdraws from his original Paschal lamb and registers for the other, no Paschal lamb will be left ownerless for any amount of time.

שְׁנַיִם שֶׁנִּתְעָרְבוּ פִסְחֵיהֶם, זֶה מוֹשֵׁךְ לוֹ אֶחָד, וְזֶה מוֹשֵׁךְ לוֹ אֶחָד, זֶה מַמְנֶה עִמּוֹ אֶחָד מִן הַשּׁוּק, וְזֶה מַמְנֶה עִמּוֹ אֶחָד מִן הַשּׁוּק, זֶה בָא אֵצֶל זֶה, וְזֶה בָא אֵצֶל זֶה, וְכָךְ הֵם אוֹמְרִים, אִם שֶׁלִּי הוּא פֶסַח זֶה, יָדֶיךָ מְשׁוּכוֹת מִשֶּׁלְּךָ וְנִמְנֵיתָ עַל שֶׁלִּי. וְאִם שֶׁלְּךָ הוּא פֶסַח זֶה, יָדַי מְשׁוּכוֹת מִשֶּׁלִּי וְנִמְנֵיתִי עַל שֶׁלָּךָ:

שנים שנתערבו פסחיהן – Reuven and Shimon whose Passover offerings became confused, Reuven draws to himself one and Shimon draws to himself another. Reuven goes and registered with him one from the marketplace and says, every place which has my Passover offering you are registered with it, and Reuven comes near the Passover offering that Shimon drew near to himself, and Shimon comes near the Passover offering that Reuven has drawn near to him. And so says Reuven to Yehuda who remains with the Passover offering that Shimon had drawn near him. If yours is this Passover offering, for Shimon had ascertained this well at first, my hands will withdraw from mine and I will be registered with you on this. And if mine is this Passover offering, that I did not intend at first to ascertain well and this is not the Passover offering that I was registered with Shimon, your hand is withdrawn from yours, and registered with me on this. And therefore, each group must register with him someone from the marketplace, for if they came to make a condition when they are individuals and to say, if this Passover offering is mine, and yours is yours, we have ascertained well, and if not, I withdraw my hand from mine and will be registered with yours. It is found that he withdraws from his and he leaves aside his Passover offering without owners, for another has not yet registered upon it. And that is not to say that he will register everyone on that of his friend prior to his withdrawing his hand from his own, for one cannot be registered upon two Passover offerings as one, and this is not his appointment.

שנים שנתערבו פסחיהן. ראובן ושמעון שנתערבו פסחיהן, ראובן מושך לו אחד ושמעון מושך לו אחד. ראובן הולך וממנה עמו אחד מן השוק, ואומר כל מקום שהוא פסח שלי הרי אתה נמנה עליו, וראובן בא לו אצל פסח שמשך לו שמעון, ושמעון בא לו אצל פסח שמשך לו ראובן, וכך אומר לו ראובן ליהודה הנשאר על פסח שמשך לו שמעון, אם שלך הוא פסח זה, שיפה בירר לו שמעון תחלה, הרי ידי משוכות משלי והריני נמנה עמך על זה, ואם שלי הוא פסח זה, שלא כוונתי מתחלה לברור יפה ואין זה פסח שנמנית עליו עם שמעון, הרי ידיך מסולקות משלך, והמנה עמי על זה. ולכך הוצרך כל אחד להמנות עמו אחד מן השוק, שאם באו להתנות כשהן יחידים ולומר אם שלי הוא פסח זה ושלך שלך הרי יפה בררנו, ואם לאו הרי אני מושך ידי משלי ונמנה על שלך. נמצא כשהוא מושך משלו הרי הוא מניח את פסחו בלא בעלים, שעדיין לא נמנה עליו אחר. והא ליכא למימר שימנה כל אחד על של חבירו קודם שימשוך ידו משלו, דאין נמנין על שני פסחים כאחד, ואין זה מנוייו:
