מִי שֶׁהוּא מְבַקֵּשׁ נְסָכִים הוֹלֵךְ לוֹ אֵצֶל יוֹחָנָן שֶׁהוּא מְמֻנֶּה עַל הַחוֹתָמוֹת, נוֹתֵן לוֹ מָעוֹת, וּמְקַבֵּל מִמֶּנּוּ חוֹתָם. בָּא לוֹ אֵצֶל אֲחִיָּה שֶׁהוּא מְמֻנֶּה עַל הַנְּסָכִים, וְנוֹתֵן לוֹ חוֹתָם, וּמְקַבֵּל מִמֶּנּוּ נְסָכִים. וְלָעֶרֶב בָּאִין זֶה אֵצֶל זֶה; וַאֲחִיָּה מוֹצִיא אֶת הַחוֹתָמוֹת וּמְקַבֵּל כְּנֶגְדָּן מָעוֹת. וְאִם הוֹתִירוּ, הוֹתִירוּ לַהֶקְדֵּשׁ; וְאִם פִּחֲתוּ, הָיָה מְשַׁלֵּם יוֹחָנָן מִבֵּיתוֹ, שֶׁיַּד הֶקְדֵּשׁ עַל הָעֶלְיוֹנָה.
Whoever required nesachim would go to Yochanan, administrator over the tokens, give him money, and receive a token from him. [Then] he would come to Achiyah, administrator over the nesachim, give him the token, and receive nesachim from him. In the evening they would meet; Achiyah would take out the tokens and receive [the] corresponding [amount of] money. If they had anything left over, it belonged to the Temple [treasury]; but if there was a shortage, Yochanan would pay [the difference] from his own funds, for the Temple [treasury] has the upper hand.
