הַמַּקְדִים תְּרוּמָה לַבִּכּוּרִים, מַעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן לַתְּרוּמָה, וּמַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי לָרִאשׁוֹן, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא עוֹבֵר בְּלֹא תַעֲשֶׂה, מַה שֶּׁעָשָׂה עָשׂוּי. שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (שמות כב), מְלֵאָתְךָ וְדִמְעֲךָ לֹא תְאַחֵר:
If one sets aside <i>Terumah</i> before <i>Bikurim</i> [first-fruits that must be given to the priest], or <i>Ma'aser Rishon</i> [first tithe, which must be given to the Levite] before <i>Terumah</i>, or <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> [second tithe, which must be eaten in Jerusalem] before <i>Ma'aser Rishon</i>, although he transgresses a negative commandment, that which he has done is done, for it is said: “You shall not delay your grain harvests and your grape harvests” (Exodus 22:28).
Tosefta Terumot
One who takes terumah before first fruits, first tithe [before] terumah, or and second tithe before first tithe, even though he transgresses a negative commandment, what he did is done. [If he prematurely took] first [tithe], it may not be eaten before second [tithe] is taken out of it. [If he prematurely took] second [tithe], it may not be eaten before terumah is taken out of it. And terumah does not prevent the the giving of first fruits. Similarly, [if] one makes starter dough from untithed produce, whether he took challah before terumah, or whether he took terumah before challah, what he did is done. Challah may not be eaten before terumah is taken out of it, and terumah may not be eaten before challah is taken out of it.
