נָטַל אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנִים לְמָקוֹם אֶחָד, וְאֶת הַשְּׁנִיִּים לְמָקוֹם אַחֵר, וְנָפַל כִּכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה עַל הָרִאשׁוֹנִים, טָמֵא, וְעַל הַשְּׁנִיִּים, טָהוֹר. נָטַל אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנִים וְאֶת הַשְּׁנִיִּים לְמָקוֹם אֶחָד, וְנָפַל כִּכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה, טָמֵא. נָטַל אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנִים וְנִמְצָא עַל יָדָיו קֵיסָם אוֹ צְרוֹר, יָדָיו טְמֵאוֹת, שֶׁאֵין הַמַּיִם הָאַחֲרוֹנִים מְטַהֲרִים אֶלָּא הַמַּיִם שֶׁעַל גַּבֵּי הַיָּד. רַבָּן שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן גַּמְלִיאֵל אוֹמֵר, כֹּל שֶׁהוּא מִבְּרִיַּת הַמַּיִם, טָהוֹר:

Regarding one who poured out the first [waters poured for washing] onto one place [i.e. the waters fell onto a certain area on the ground], and the second [waters poured for washing] onto another place, if a loaf of <i>terumah</i> falls into the first [waters], it is impure; and if [it falls] into the second [waters], it is pure. Regarding one who poured out the first and the second [waters] onto one place, if a loaf of <i>terumah</i> falls [into those waters], it is impure. If one poured out the first [waters], and finds [afterwards] a splinter or a pebble on his hands, his hands are impure [if he poured the second waters before removing them], since the latter [i.e. the second] waters only purify the waters on the hand [but not the waters on the splinter or pebble, which can then, in turn, render the hand impure once more]. Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel says: anything produced from the water is pure [i.e. does not prevent hands from becoming pure if it is on them while they are being washed].
