Mishnah 1א׳
אֲרוּסָה וְשׁוֹמֶרֶת יָבָם, לֹא שׁוֹתוֹת וְלֹא נוֹטְלוֹת כְּתֻבָּה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (במדבר ה), אֲשֶׁר תִּשְׂטֶה אִשָּׁה תַּחַת אִישָׁהּ, פְּרָט לַאֲרוּסָה וְשׁוֹמֶרֶת יָבָם. אַלְמָנָה לְכֹהֵן גָּדוֹל, גְּרוּשָׁה וַחֲלוּצָה לְכֹהֵן הֶדְיוֹט, מַמְזֶרֶת וּנְתִינָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, וּבַת יִשְׂרָאֵל לְמַמְזֵר וּלְנָתִין, לֹא שׁוֹתוֹת וְלֹא נוֹטְלוֹת כְּתֻבָּה:
A betrothed woman and a Shomeret Yavam [widow of childless man whose brother has yet to either marry her or release her from the residual marital bond] do not drink [the bitter waters] and they do not take their Ketubah [monetary settlement payable to a married woman upon divorce or the death of her husband], as it says, "that the woman goes astray while married to her husband," (Numbers 5:29) which excludes a betrothed woman or a Shomeret Yavam. A widow [married] to a high priest, a divorcée or a Chalutzah [widow of childless man whose brother has released her from the residual marital bond] [married] to a common priest, a Mamzeret [offspring of an illegitimate union between a Jewish woman and man] or a Netinah [member of a caste of Temple servants, historically descended from the Gibeonites] [married] to an Israelite, or a daughter of an Israelite [married] to a Mamzer or a Netin--they do not drink [the bitter waters] and don't take their Ketubah.
Mishnah 2ב׳
וְאֵלּוּ לֹא שׁוֹתוֹת וְלֹא נוֹטְלוֹת כְּתֻבָּה. הָאוֹמֶרֶת טְמֵאָה אָנִי, וְשֶׁבָּאוּ לָהּ עֵדִים שֶׁהִיא טְמֵאָה, וְהָאוֹמֶרֶת אֵינִי שׁוֹתָה. אָמַר בַּעְלָהּ אֵינִי מַשְׁקָהּ, וְשֶׁבַּעְלָהּ בָּא עָלֶיהָ בַדֶּרֶךְ, נוֹטֶלֶת כְּתֻבָּתָהּ וְלֹא שׁוֹתָה. מֵתוּ בַעֲלֵיהֶן עַד שֶׁלֹּא שָׁתוּ, בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים, נוֹטְלוֹת כְּתֻבָּה וְלֹא שׁוֹתוֹת. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים, לֹא שׁוֹתוֹת וְלֹא נוֹטְלוֹת כְּתֻבָּה:
And these do not drink and do not take their Ketubah: One who says, "I am impure", one of whom witnesses come and say she is impure, and one who says, "I will not drink." If her husband says, "I won't make her drink," or her husband has relations with her on the way [to the Temple], she takes her Ketubah and does not drink. If her husband dies before she drinks: Beit Shammai say, she takes her Ketubah and does not drink. And Beit Hillel say, she does not drink and does not take her Ketubah.
