אַחַת בִּכְּרָה וְאַחַת שֶׁלֹּא בִכְּרָה שֶׁל שְׁנֵי אֲנָשִׁים, וְיָלְדוּ שְׁנֵי זְכָרִים, זֶה שֶׁלֹּא בִכְּרָה אִשְׁתּוֹ, נוֹתֵן חָמֵשׁ סְלָעִים לַכֹּהֵן. זָכָר וּנְקֵבָה, אֵין כָּאן לַכֹּהֵן כְּלוּם. מֵת הַבֵּן בְּתוֹךְ שְׁלשִׁים יוֹם, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁנָּתַן לַכֹּהֵן, יַחֲזִיר (לוֹ חָמֵשׁ סְלָעִים). לְאַחַר שְׁלשִׁים יוֹם, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁלֹּא נָתַן, יִתֵּן. מֵת בְּיוֹם שְׁלשִׁים, כְּיוֹם שֶׁלְּפָנָיו. רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא אוֹמֵר, אִם נָתַן, לֹא יִטּוֹל. וְאִם לֹא נָתַן, לֹא יִתֵּן. מֵת הָאָב בְּתוֹךְ שְׁלשִׁים יוֹם, בְּחֶזְקַת שֶׁלֹּא נִפְדָּה, עַד שֶׁיָּבִיא רְאָיָה שֶׁנִּפְדָּה. לְאַחַר שְׁלשִׁים יוֹם, בְּחֶזִקַת שֶׁנִּפְדָּה, עַד (שֶׁיָּבִיא רְאָיָה) שֶׁלֹּא נִפְדָּה. הוּא לִפָּדוֹת וּבְנוֹ לִפָּדוֹת, הוּא קוֹדֵם אֶת בְּנוֹ. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, בְּנוֹ קוֹדְמוֹ, שֶׁמִּצְוָתוֹ עַל אָבִיו, וּמִצְוַת בְּנוֹ עָלָיו:

If one woman had given birth and the other had not - [being the wives] of two men and they then give birth to two boys [who became mixed up] - the one whose wife had not given birth gives five <i>selaim</i>to a priest. If they gave birth to a boy and a girl the priest receives nothing. If the boy dies within thirty days, even if he already gave [the money] to the priest, (the five <i>selaim</i>) returns (to him). [If he dies] after thirty days - even if he hasn't given yet he must give. If he dies on the thirtieth day it is like the day before. Rabbi Akiva says: if he gave already he cannot take it back, but if he hasn't given yet he does not have to give. If the father died within thirty days it is assumed [the son] was not redeemed until he brings proof that he was redeemed. After thirty days, it is assumed he was redeemed until (they testify) that he was not redeemed. If he has to redeem [both] himself and his son - he comes before his son. Rabbi Yehuda says: his son comes first because his obligation is on his father, while his son's obligation is on him.
