הָאוֹנָאָה אַרְבָּעָה כֶסֶף, וְהַטַּעֲנָה שְׁתֵּי כֶסֶף, וְהַהוֹדָאָה שָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה. חָמֵשׁ פְּרוּטוֹת הֵן. הַהוֹדָאָה שָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה, וְהָאִשָּׁה מִתְקַדֶּשֶׁת בְּשָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה, וְהַנֶּהֱנֶה בְשָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה מִן הַהֶקְדֵּשׁ מָעַל, וְהַמּוֹצֵא שָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה חַיָּב לְהַכְרִיז, וְהַגּוֹזֵל אֶת חֲבֵרוֹ שָׁוֶה פְרוּטָה וְנִשְׁבַּע לוֹ, יוֹלִיכֶנּוּ אַחֲרָיו אֲפִלּוּ לְמָדָי:

Ona'ah is four (ma'ah of) silver [for the purchase of a sela, twenty-four ma'ah of silver, whereby ona'ah is found to be a sixth, as stated above (4:3). It is restated here for the sake of (what follows, viz.:) "And the claim is two (ma'ah of) silver."] And the claim is two (ma'ah of) silver. [For there is no shvuath hadaynim (an oath imposed by the judges) on a claim less than two (ma'ah of) silver, where the one claims: "You owe me two ma'ah of silver," and the other admits to the worth of a p'rutah and denies the rest, or admits to the whole except for a p'rutah.] And the admission is the worth of a p'rutah [to render it partial admission so that he be liable for an oath]. And a woman may be betrothed with the worth of a p'rutah. And one who benefits the worth of a p'rutah of hekdesh (consecrated property) is guilty of abuse (of hekdesh). And if one finds the worth of a p'rutah, he must call it out, [but not less than that amount, it being written (Deuteronomy 22:3): "…which shall go lost from him" — to exclude a lost object which is not worth a p'rutah.] And if one steals the worth of a p'rutah from his neighbor, and swears to him, he must take it to him even to Media [if he confess that he swore falsely, in which instance he has no atonement until he returns it to the one he stole it from himself, and not to his messenger, it being written (Numbers 5:7): "and he shall give it to whom he owes it."]
