Mishnah שביעית י׳:ב׳ · Sheviis 10:2
הַשּׁוֹחֵט אֶת הַפָּרָה וְחִלְּקָהּ בְּרֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה, אִם הָיָה הַחֹדֶשׁ מְעֻבָּר, מְשַׁמֵּט.
וְאִם לָאו, אֵינוֹ מְשַׁמֵּט.
הָאוֹנֵס, וְהַמְפַתֶּה, וְהַמּוֹצִיא שֵׁם רָע, וְכָל מַעֲשֵׂה בֵית דִּין, אֵין מְשַׁמְּטִין.
הַמַּלְוֶה עַל הַמַּשְׁכּוֹן, וְהַמּוֹסֵר שְׁטָרוֹתָיו לְבֵית דִּין, אֵינָן מְשַׁמְּטִין:
One who slaughters a cow and divides it [on credit] on Rosh Hashana - if the month was intercalated, [the debt] is cancelled.
and if not, it is not cancelled.
[Payments of] the rapist, the seducer, the defamer, and any [obligation imposed by] act of beis din - are not cancelled.
One who lends against collateral, and one who hands his documents over to beis din - these are not cancelled:

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.

CaseRulingReason
And if a butcher divides a cow’s meat on credit on the thirtieth day going into Rosh Hashana after the Shemittah year — does Sheviis wipe the debt away?If the month was intercalated — that day was really Elul, the sale still in the outgoing year — cancelled; if not — it was already the new year — not cancelled—
Do payments imposed by beis din — the rapist, the seducer, the defamer — get cancelled?No—
And if one lent against a mashkon (collateral), or handed his loan documents to beis din to collect?Not cancelled—
Transcript
A machine transcript of the recorded shiur.

This is the shiur as spoken, transcribed automatically and left unedited — the wording is Ephraim's, and occasional transcription errors remain. It follows the audio word by word.
