Yevamos2: 5

מִי שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ אָח מִכָּל מָקוֹם — זוֹקֵק אֶת אֵשֶׁת אָחִיו לְיִבּוּם, וְאָחִיו לְכָל דָּבָר, חוּץ מִמִּי שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ מִן הַשִּׁפְחָה וּמִן הַנָּכְרִית. מִי שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ בֵּן מִכָּל מָקוֹם — פּוֹטֵר אֵשֶׁת אָבִיו מִן הַיִּבּוּם, וְחַיָּב עַל מַכָּתוֹ וְעַל קִלְלָתוֹ, וּבְנוֹ הוּא לְכָל דָּבָר, חוּץ מִמִּי שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ מִן הַשִּׁפְחָה וּמִן הַנָּכְרִית.

One who has a brother of any kind binds his brother's wife for yibum, and is [considered] his brother in all respects; except for someone who has [a brother] from a slave-woman or a non-Jewess. One who has a son of any kind releases his father's wife from yibum, is liable for striking or cursing him, and is considered his son in every respect; except for someone who has [a son] from a slave-woman or a non-Jewess.

Yevamos2: 6

מִי שֶׁקִּדֵּשׁ אַחַת מִשְּׁתֵּי אֲחָיוֹת וְאֵינוֹ יוֹדֵעַ אֵיזוֹ מֵהֶן קִדֵּשׁ — נוֹתֵן גֵּט לָזוֹ וְגֵט לָזוֹ. מֵת, וְלוֹ אָח אֶחָד — חוֹלֵץ לִשְׁתֵּיהֶן. הָיוּ לוֹ שְׁנַיִם — אֶחָד חוֹלֵץ וְאֶחָד מְיַבֵּם. קָדְמוּ וְכָנְסוּ — אֵין מוֹצִיאִין מִיָּדָם.

One who betrothed one of two sisters, but does not know which of them he betrothed, [must] divorce each of them. [If] he died and left one brother, he performs chalitzah with both. [If] he left two [brothers], one performs chalitzah and the other [may then] perform yibum. [However, if] they went ahead and married [them], we do not force them to divorce.

Yevamos2: 7

שְׁנַיִם שֶׁקִּדְּשׁוּ שְׁתֵּי אֲחָיוֹת, זֶה אֵינוֹ יוֹדֵעַ אֵיזוֹ קִדֵּשׁ, וְזֶה אֵינוֹ יוֹדֵעַ אֵיזוֹ קִדֵּשׁ — זֶה נוֹתֵן שְׁנֵי גִטִּין, וְזֶה נוֹתֵן שְׁנֵי גִטִּין. מֵתוּ, לָזֶה אָח, וְלָזֶה אָח — זֶה חוֹלֵץ לִשְׁתֵּיהֶן, וְזֶה חוֹלֵץ לִשְׁתֵּיהֶן. לָזֶה אֶחָד וְלָזֶה שְׁנַיִם — הַיָּחִיד חוֹלֵץ לִשְׁתֵּיהֶן, וְהַשְּׁנַיִם, אֶחָד חוֹלֵץ וְאֶחָד מְיַבֵּם. קָדְמוּ וְכָנְסוּ — אֵין מוֹצִיאִין מִיָּדָם. לָזֶה שְׁנַיִם וְלָזֶה שְׁנַיִם — אָחִיו שֶׁל זֶה חוֹלֵץ לְאֶחָת, וְאָחִיו שֶׁל זֶה חוֹלֵץ לְאֶחָת; אָחִיו שֶׁל זֶה מְיַבֵּם חֲלוּצָתוֹ שֶׁל זֶה, וְאָחִיו שֶׁל זֶה מְיַבֵּם חֲלוּצָתוֹ שֶׁל זֶה. קָדְמוּ שְׁנַיִם וְחָלְצוּ — לֹא יְיַבְּמוּ הַשְּׁנַיִם, אֶלָּא אֶחָד חוֹלֵץ וְאֶחָד מְיַבֵּם. קָדְמוּ וְכָנְסוּ — אֵין מוֹצִיאִין מִיָּדָם.

Two [men] who betrothed two sisters, and neither one knows which one he has betrothed, each of them gives two divorces. [If] they died [and] each left a brother, each performs chalitzah with both. [If] one left one [brother] and the other left two [brothers], the single [brother] performs chalitzah with both; and [of] the two, one performs cha- litzah, and the other [may then] perform yibum. [However, if] they went ahead and married [them], we do not force them to divorce. [If] each left two [brothers], a brother of one performs chalitzah with one [of the sisters] and a brother of the other performs chalitzah with the other [sister]; [then] the two remaining brothers [may] each perform yibum with the [widow] who received chalitzah from the other's brother. [If] both went ahead and performed chalitzah, the other two may not [both] perform yibum, but one must perform chalitzah, and the other [may then] perform yibum. [However, if] they went ahead and married [them], we do not force them to divorce.

Yevamos2: 8

מִצְוָה בַגָּדוֹל לְיַבֵּם; וְאִם קָדַם הַקָּטָן — זָכָה. הַנִּטְעָן עַל הַשִּׁפְחָה וְנִשְׁתַּחְרְרָה, אוֹ עַל הַנָּכְרִית וְנִתְגַּיְּרָה — הֲרֵי זֶה לֹא יִכְנוֹס; וְאִם כָּנַס — אֵין מוֹצִיאִין מִיָּדוֹ. הַנִּטְעָן עַל אֵשֶׁת אִישׁ, וְהוֹצִיאוּהָ מִתַּחַת יָדוֹ — אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁכָּנַס, יוֹצִיא.

The commandment is for the eldest to perform yibum; but if the youngest anticipated [him], he gains [it]. One who is suspected in connection with a slavewoman, and she was [then] freed, or in connection with a non-Jewish woman, and she [then] converted —- may not marry [her]; but if he did marry [her], we do not force him to divorce [her]. One who is suspected in connection with another man's wife and they compelled him to divorce her, even if he married [her], he must divorce [her].
