Mishnah שביעית ח׳:ח׳ · Sheviis 8:8
אֵין לוֹקְחִים עֲבָדִים וְקַרְקָעוֹת וּבְהֵמָה טְמֵאָה מִדְּמֵי שְׁבִיעִית.
וְאִם לָקַח, יֹאכַל כְּנֶגְדָּן.
אֵין מְבִיאִין קִנֵּי זָבִים וְקִנֵּי זָבוֹת וְקִנֵּי יוֹלְדוֹת מִדְּמֵי שְׁבִיעִית.
וְאִם הֵבִיא, יֹאכַל כְּנֶגְדָּן.
אֵין סָכִין כֵּלִים בְּשֶׁמֶן שֶׁל שְׁבִיעִית.
וְאִם סָךְ, יֹאכַל כְּנֶגְדּוֹ:
One may not buy slaves, land, or an impure animal with Sheviis proceeds.
And if he did buy [them], he must eat [Sheviis produce] corresponding to their value.
One may not bring the bird-offerings of men or women with a discharge, or of women after childbirth, with Sheviis proceeds.
And if he did bring [them], he must eat [Sheviis produce] corresponding to their value.
One may not anoint vessels with Sheviis oil.
And if he did anoint [them], he must eat [Sheviis produce] corresponding to its value:

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.
