שָׁלֹשׁ אֲרָצוֹת לַשְּׁבִיעִית. כָּל שֶׁהֶחֱזִיקוּ עוֹלֵי בָבֶל, מֵאֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַד כְּזִיב, לֹא נֶאֱכָל וְלֹא נֶעֱבָד. וְכָל שֶׁהֶחֱזִיקוּ עוֹלֵי מִצְרַיִם, מִכְּזִיב וְעַד הַנָּהָר וְעַד אֲמָנָה, נֶאֱכָל, אֲבָל לֹא נֶעֱבָד. מִן הַנָּהָר וּמֵאֲמָנָה וְלִפְנִים, נֶאֱכָל וְנֶעֱבָד: [The land of Israel is divided into] three territories with regard to the sabbatical law.[Any produce grown in land] that was occupied by those who came up from Babylon, namely from Eretz Israel as far as Chezib, may not be eaten, nor [may its soil] be cultivated. [Any produce grown in land] that was occupied by those who came up from Egypt, namely from Chezib to the river, and until Amonah, may be eaten, but [its soil] may not be cultivated. From the river till Amonah and inwards, [produce] may be eaten and [the soil] cultivated.
עוֹשִׂין בְּתָלוּשׁ בְּסוּרְיָא, אֲבָל לֹא בִמְחֻבָּר. דָּשִׁים וְזוֹרִין וְדוֹרְכִין וּמְעַמְּרִין, אֲבָל לֹא קוֹצְרִין וְלֹא בוֹצְרִין וְלֹא מוֹסְקִים. כְּלָל אָמַר רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא, כָּל שֶׁכַּיּוֹצֵא בוֹ מֻתָּר בְּאֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל, עוֹשִׂין אוֹתוֹ בְּסוּרְיָא: In Syria, one may perform work on produce that has been detached, but not on produced attached [to the soil]. They may thresh, winnow, and tread [the grapes], or make [the grain] into sheaves, but they may not harvest [the crops], nor cut the grapes, nor harvest the olives. Rabbi Akiva said this principle: the kind of work that is permitted in Eretz Israel may also be done in Syria.
בְּצָלִים שֶׁיָּרְדוּ עֲלֵיהֶם גְּשָׁמִים וְצִמֵּחוּ, אִם הָיוּ הֶעָלִין שֶׁלָּהֶם שְׁחוֹרִין, אֲסוּרִין. הוֹרִיקוּ, הֲרֵי אֵלּוּ מֻתָּרִין. רַבִּי חֲנִינָא בֶן אַנְטִיגְנוֹס אוֹמֵר, אִם יְכוֹלִין לְהִתָּלֵשׁ בֶּעָלִין שֶׁלָּהֶן, אֲסוּרִין. וּכְנֶגֶד כֵּן, מוֹצָאֵי שְׁבִיעִית, מֻתָּרִין: Onions on which rain fell and which had sprouted, if their leaves had turned black, they are forbidden; if they had become green they are permitted. Rabbi Hanina ben Antigonus says: if they can be plucked out by their leaves, they are forbidden. In the year after the sabbatical year, the like of these are permitted.
מֵאֵימָתַי מֻתָּר אָדָם לִקַּח יָרָק בְּמוֹצָאֵי שְׁבִיעִית, מִשֶּׁיַּעֲשֶׂה כַיּוֹצֵא בוֹ. עָשָׂה הַבַּכִּיר, הֻתַּר הָאָפִיל. רַבִּי הִתִּיר לִקַּח יָרָק בְּמוֹצָאֵי שְׁבִיעִית מִיָּד: When may one buy vegetables at the outgoing of the sabbatical year [without fear that they are sabbatical produce]?When enough time has passed for similar [vegetables] to grow. Where produce ripens quickly, even that which is late in ripening is also permissible. Rabbi used to allow the buying of vegetables immediately after the sabbatical year was over.
אֵין מוֹצִיאִין שֶׁמֶן שְׂרֵפָה וּפֵרוֹת שְׁבִיעִית מֵהָאָרֶץ לְחוּץ לָאָרֶץ. אָמַר רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן, שָׁמַעְתִּי בְפֵרוּשׁ, שֶׁמּוֹצִיאִין לְסוּרְיָא וְאֵין מוֹצִיאִין לְחוּץ לָאָרֶץ: One may not take oil [of terumah] that had to be burned, nor produce of the seventh year, from the land [of Israel] to other countries. Rabbi Shimon said: I have heard it expressly stated that they may be exported to Syria, but not to any other country outside the land.
אֵין מְבִיאִין תְּרוּמָה מֵחוּצָה לָאָרֶץ לָאָרֶץ. אָמַר רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן, שָׁמַעְתִּי בְּפֵרוּשׁ, שֶׁמְּבִיאִין מִסּוּרְיָא וְאֵין מְבִיאִין מִחוּצָה לָאָרֶץ: They may not import terumah from outside the land of Israel into Israel. Rabbi Shimon said: I have heard it expressly stated that they may be bring from Syria, but not from any other country outside the land.
