Mishnah שביעית ח׳:ט׳ · Sheviis 8:9
עוֹר שֶׁסָּכוֹ בְּשֶׁמֶן שֶׁל שְׁבִיעִית,
רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, יִדָּלֵק.
וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, יֹאכַל כְּנֶגְדּוֹ.
אָמְרוּ לִפְנֵי רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא,
אוֹמֵר הָיָה רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר,
עוֹר שֶׁסָּכוֹ בְשֶׁמֶן שֶׁל שְׁבִיעִית,
יִדָּלֵק.
אָמַר לָהֶם,
שְׁתֹקוּ,
לֹא אוֹמַר לָכֶם מַה שֶּׁרַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר בּוֹ:
A hide that one anointed with Sheviis oil -
Rabbi Eliezer says: it must be burned.
But the Chachamim say: he must eat [Sheviis produce] corresponding to its value.
They said before Rabbi Akiva:
used to say Rabbi Eliezer -
a hide that one anointed with Sheviis oil
must be burned.
He said to them:
Be silent;
I will not tell you what Rabbi Eliezer says about it:
A reading aid, not an exact translation.

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.
