Mishnah 1א׳

כִּלְאֵי הַכֶּרֶם אֲסוּרִין מִלִּזְרֹעַ, וּמִלְּקַיֵּם, וַאֲסוּרִין בַּהֲנָאָה. כִּלְאֵי זְרָעִים, אֲסוּרִים מִלִּזְרֹעַ וּמִלְּקַיֵּם, וּמֻתָּרִין בַּאֲכִילָה, וְכָל שֶׁכֵּן בַּהֲנָאָה. כִּלְאֵי בְגָדִים מֻתָּרִין בְּכָל דָּבָר, וְאֵינָן אֲסוּרִין אֶלָּא מִלִּלְבֹּשׁ. כִּלְאֵי בְהֵמָה מֻתָּרִים לְגַדֵּל וּלְקַיֵּם, וְאֵינָן אֲסוּרִים אֶלָּא מִלְּהַרְבִּיעַ. כִּלְאֵי בְהֵמָה אֲסוּרִים זֶה בָזֶה:

Kilayim [the product of forbidden crossbreeding or working of certain animals with one another, planting together certain plants, or interweaving certain fibers]in a vineyard, may not be sown nor may they be maintained and it is forbidden to derive benefit from it. Seed kilayim may not be sown nor may they be maintained but they are permitted to be eaten and certainly to derive benefit from them. Kilayim of garments [cloth made of wool and linen] are permitted for every purpose and it is only forbidden to wear them. Kilayim in animals [crossbreeding different species] may be reared and maintained and it is only forbidden to crossbreed them. Animal kilayim [born from a mixture i.e. the offspring of a female donkey and a stallion or of a mare and a donkey] are forbidden to be mated together.

בְּהֵמָה עִם בְּהֵמָה וְחַיָּה עִם חַיָּה, בְּהֵמָה עִם חַיָּה וְחַיָּה עִם בְּהֵמָה, טְמֵאָה עִם טְמֵאָה וּטְהוֹרָה עִם טְהוֹרָה, טְמֵאָה עִם טְהוֹרָה וּטְהוֹרָה עִם טְמֵאָה, אֲסוּרִין לַחֲרֹשׁ וְלִמְשֹׁךְ וּלְהַנְהִיג:

A domesticated animal with another [species of] domesticated animal, a wild animal with another [species of] wild animal, a domesticated animal with a wild animal, a wild animal with a domesticated animal, an unclean [a domesticated or wild animal that are forbidden to be eaten] with an unclean, a clean with a clean, an unclean with clean, a clean with a unclean, [with all these pairs] it is prohibited to plow [with them when they are harnessed together], to pull [with them] and to drive them [even if they are not pulling anything].
