Mishnah 1א׳
הַשֻּׁתָּפִין שֶׁנָּדְרוּ הֲנָאָה זֶה מִזֶּה, אֲסוּרִין לִכָּנֵס לֶחָצֵר. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, זֶה נִכְנָס לְתוֹךְ שֶׁלּוֹ וְזֶה נִכְנָס לְתוֹךְ שֶׁלּוֹ. וּשְׁנֵיהֶם אֲסוּרִים לְהַעֲמִיד שָׁם רֵחַיִם וְתַנּוּר וּלְגַדֵּל תַּרְנְגוֹלִים. הָיָה אֶחָד מֵהֶם מֻדָּר הֲנָאָה מֵחֲבֵרוֹ, לֹא יִכָּנֵס לֶחָצֵר. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, יָכוֹל הוּא לוֹמַר לוֹ, לְתוֹךְ שֶׁלִּי אֲנִי נִכְנָס וְאֵינִי נִכְנָס לְתוֹךְ שֶׁלָּךְ. וְכוֹפִין אֶת הַנּוֹדֵר לִמְכֹּר אֶת חֶלְקוֹ:
Neighbors [who share a courtyard], who vow [not to derive benefit] from each other, are prohibited from entering the courtyard. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov says: this one can enter his [share of the courtyard] and this one can enter his. Both of them are prohibited from putting a mill [in the courtyard] or an oven, or to raise chickens [in the courtyard]. If one [of the neighbors] vowed [not to derive benefit] from his friend, he may not enter the [shared] courtyard. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov says: he [the one who vowed] may say to [his neighbor], "I am entering my [share of the courtyard] and am not entering yours." But the one who vowed is pressured to sell his share [of the courtyard].
Mishnah 2ב׳
הָיָה אֶחָד מִן הַשּׁוּק מֻדָּר מֵאֶחָד מֵהֶם הֲנָאָה, לֹא יִכָּנֵס לֶחָצֵר. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, יָכוֹל הוּא לוֹמַר לוֹ, לְתוֹךְ שֶׁל חֲבֵרְךָ אֲנִי נִכְנָס, וְאֵינִי נִכְנָס לְתוֹךְ שֶׁלָּךְ:
If someone from the marketplace took a vow not to benefit from one [of the owners of a courtyard], he may not enter the entire courtyard. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov says: he can claim, "I am entering into the portion of the courtyard owned by [other] owners of the courtyard, and I am not entering your share."
