מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי, נִתָּן לַאֲכִילָה וְלִשְׁתִיָּה וּלְסִיכָה, לֶאֱכֹל דָּבָר שֶׁדַּרְכּוֹ לֶאֱכֹל, לָסוּךְ דָּבָר שֶׁדַּרְכּוֹ לָסוּךְ. לֹא יָסוּךְ יַיִן וְחֹמֶץ, אֲבָל סָךְ הוּא אֶת הַשֶּׁמֶן. אֵין מְפַטְּמִין שֶׁמֶן שֶׁל מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי, וְאֵין לוֹקְחִין בִּדְמֵי מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי שֶׁמֶן מְפֻטָּם, אֲבָל מְפַטֵּם הוּא אֶת הַיַּיִן. נָפַל לְתוֹכוֹ דְבַשׁ וּתְבָלִין וְהִשְׁבִּיחוֹ, הַשֶּׁבַח לְפִי חֶשְׁבּוֹן. דָּגִים שֶׁנִּתְבַּשְּׁלוּ עִם הַקַּפְלוֹטוֹת שֶׁל מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי וְהִשְׁבִּיחוּ, הַשֶּׁבַח לְפִי חֶשְׁבּוֹן. עִסָּה שֶׁל מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי שֶׁאֲפָאָהּ וְהִשְׁבִּיחַ, הַשֶּׁבַח לַשֵּׁנִי. זֶה הַכְּלָל, כָּל שֶׁשִּׁבְחוֹ נִכָּר, הַשֶּׁבַח לְפִי הַחֶשְׁבּוֹן. וְכָל שֶׁאֵין שִׁבְחוֹ נִכָּר, הַשֶּׁבַח לַשֵּׁנִי:

<i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> [second tithe, which must be eaten in Jerusalem] is available for eating, drinking, or anointing; one may only eat what is normally eaten, and anoint with what is normally used for anointing. One may not anoint with wine and vinegar, but one may anoint with oil. It is prohibited to spice <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> oil, or to buy spiced oil with <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> money; but one may spice wine. Should honey or spices fall into it and improve it, the improvement is taken into account. If fish were cooked with <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> leek bulbs, which were thus improved, the improvement is taken into account. <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> dough, which was baked, and thus improved; the improvement shall go towards the <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i>. This is the rule: anything with evident improvement, the improvement is taken into account; and anything with non-evident improvement, the improvement goes towards the <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i>.
