Halacha 1א׳

הַמּוֹצִיא דָּבָר מֵרְשׁוּת הַיָּחִיד לִרְשׁוּת הרבִּים אוֹ מֵרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים לִרְשׁוּת הַיָּחִיד אֵינוֹ חַיָּב עַד שֶׁיּוֹצִיא מִמֶּנּוּ שִׁעוּר שֶׁמּוֹעִיל כְּלוּם. וְאֵלּוּ הֵן שִׁעוּרֵי הַהוֹצָאָה. הַמּוֹצִיא אָכְלֵי אָדָם כִּגְרוֹגֶרֶת. וּמִצְטָרְפִין זֶה עִם זֶה. וְהוּא שֶׁיִּהְיֶה כִּגְרוֹגֶרֶת מִן הָאֹכֶל עַצְמוֹ חוּץ מִן הַקְּלִפִּים וְהַגַּרְעִינִין וְהָעֵקְצִין וְהַסֻּבִּין וְהַמֻּרְסָן:

1 One who transports something from a private domain to a public domain or from a public domain to a private domain is only liable when he transports a [requisite] amount that is useful for something. And these are the [requisite] amounts for transporting: [Regarding] one who transports human food, it is like a dried fig-bulk. And [different foods] combine with one another. And that is when there is a dried fig-bulk from the food itself, besides the peels, the pits, the stems, the bran and the coarse bran.

Halacha 2ב׳

יַיִן כְּדֵי רֹבַע רְבִיעִית וְאִם הָיָה קָרוּשׁ בִּכְזַיִת. חֲלֵב בְּהֵמָה טְהוֹרָה כְּדֵי גְּמִיעָה וַחֲלֵב טְמֵאָה כְּדֵי לִכְחל עַיִן אַחַת. חֲלֵב אִשָּׁה וְלֹבֶן בֵּיצָה כְּדֵי לִתֵּן בִּמְשִׁיפָה. שֶׁמֶן כְּדֵי לָסוּךְ אֶצְבַּע קְטַנָּה שֶׁל רֶגֶל קָטָן בֶּן יוֹמוֹ. טַל כְּדֵי לָשׁוּף אֶת הַקִּילוֹרִין. וְקִילוֹר כְּדֵי לָשׁוּף בַּמַּיִם. וּמַיִם כְּדֵי לִרְחֹץ פְּנֵי מְדוּכָה. דְּבַשׁ כְּדֵי לִתֵּן עַל רֹאשׁ הַכָּתִית. דָּם וּשְׁאָר כָּל הַמַּשְׁקִין וְכָל הַשּׁוֹפְכִין כְּדֵי רְבִיעִית:

2 Enough wine for the quarter of a reviit; but if it congealed, it is a kazayit (the bulk of a large olive). Enough milk of a pure animal [in order for a person to take one] swallow; enough milk of an impure one to treat one eye. Enough woman's milk or egg white to put into a bandage. Enough oil to rub the small toe of a one-day old infant. Enough dew to pound a salve. Enough salve to have it pounded in water. And enough water to wash the surface of a mortar. Enough honey to put on the top of a sore. Enough blood or any other liquid or any waste water to be a reviit.

Halacha 3ג׳

תֶּבֶן תְּבוּאָה כִּמְלֹא פִּי פָּרָה. תֶּבֶן קִטְנִיּוֹת כִּמְלֹא פִּי גָּמָל. וְאִם הוֹצִיא תֶּבֶן קִטְנִיּוֹת לְהַאֲכִילוֹ לְפָרָה כִּמְלֹא פִּי פָּרָה. שֶׁהָאֲכִילָה עַל יְדֵי הַדְּחָק שְׁמָהּ אֲכִילָה. עָמִיר כִּמְלֹא פִּי טָלֶה. עֲשָׂבִים כִּמְלֹא פִּי גְּדִי. עֲלֵי שׁוּם וַעֲלֵי בְּצָלִים אִם הָיוּ לַחִים כִּגְרוֹגֶרֶת מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהֵן אָכְלֵי אָדָם. וִיבֵשִׁים כִּמְלֹא פִּי גְּדִי. וְאֵין מִצְטָרְפִין זֶה עִם זֶה לֶחָמוּר שֶׁבָּהֶן אֲבָל מִצְטָרְפִין לַקַּל שֶׁבָּהֶן. כֵּיצַד. הוֹצִיא תֶּבֶן תְּבוּאָה וְקִטְנִית. אִם יֵשׁ בִּשְׁנֵיהֶם כִּמְלֹא פִּי פָּרָה פָּטוּר. כִּמְלֹא פִּי גָּמָל חַיָּב. וְכֵן כָּל כַּיּוֹצֵא בָּזֶה לְעִנְיַן הַשַּׁבָּת:

3 Straw from grain is like the mouthful of a cow. Straw from legumes is like the mouthful of a camel. But if one selected legume straw to feed it to a cow, it is like the mouthful of a cow - for eating under duress is [still] considered eating. An ear of grain is like the mouthful of a goat. Grass is like the mouthful of a goat. [Regarding] garlic leaves and onion leaves: If they are fresh, it is like a fig-bulk, because they are human foods; but [if] dry, it is like the mouthful of a lamb. And [two substances] do not combine together for the stricter [amount] among them; but they combine for the lenient among them. How is this? If one selected straw of grain and of legumes: If there is like the mouthful of a cow between the two of them, he is exempt; like the mouthful of a camel, he is liable. And likewise all that is similar to it concerning Shabbat.
