בְּנָן נֻקְבִין דְּיֶהֶוְיָן לִיכִי מִנַּאי, יֶהֶוְיָן יָתְבָן בְּבֵיתִי וּמִתְּזָנָן מִנִּכְסַי עַד דְּתִנַּסְּבָן לְגֻבְרִין, חַיָּב, שֶׁהוּא תְנַאי בֵּית דִּין:
Wenn er nicht [in ihrer Ketuba ] schrieb: "Die weiblichen Kinder, die Sie bei mir haben werden, werden in meinem Haus leben und von meinem Eigentum gefüttert werden, bis sie von Männern verlobt werden", ist er [dennoch] verpflichtet , da dies eine [feste] Bestimmung [erlassen] des Gerichts ist.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot
If he did not write for her, “the female children that I will have from you will dwell in my house and be maintained out of my estate until they are taken in marriage”, he is nevertheless liable, because [this clause] is a condition laid down by the court. A husband is liable to support his wife’s daughters until they are taken in marriage. As we learned above in mishnah six, this refers to after the husband’s death. Even if he doesn’t write such a clause in the ketubah, he is liable for it is a condition laid down by the court.
