שְׁבוּעַת הַפִּקָּדוֹן נוֹהֶגֶת בַּאֲנָשִׁים וּבְנָשִׁים, בִּרְחוֹקִים וּבִקְרוֹבִים, בִּכְשֵׁרִים וּבִפְסוּלִים; בִּפְנֵי בֵית דִּין וְשֶׁלֹּא בִפְנֵי בֵית דִּין — מִפִּי עַצְמוֹ; וּמִפִּי אֲחֵרִים — אֵינוֹ חַיָּב עַד שֶׁיִּכְפּוֹר בּוֹ בְּבֵית דִּין; דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים: בֵּין מִפִּי עַצְמוֹ בֵּין מִפִּי אֲחֵרִים, כֵּיוָן שֶׁכָּפַר בּוֹ — חַיָּב.
וְחַיָּב עַל זְדוֹן הַשְּׁבוּעָה, וְעַל שִׁגְגָתָהּ עִם זְדוֹן הַפִּקָּדוֹן, וְאֵינוֹ חַיָּב עַל שִׁגְגָתָהּ. וּמַה חַיָּב עַל זְדוֹנָהּ? אָשָׁם בְּכֶסֶף שְׁקָלִים.
The oath of deposit applies to both men and women, non-relatives and relatives, those qualified and those disqualified; in court and out of court —- by his own mouth; but [if adjured] by others —- he is not liable unless he denies it in court; [these are] the words of R' Meir. But the Sages say: Whether by his own mouth or whether [adjured] by others, once he denies it —- he is liable. He is liable for a willful transgression of the oath, as well as for its inadvertent transgression coupled with a willful denial of the deposit, but he is not liable for its inadvertent transgression. Now what is he liable for its willful transgression? A guilt-offering worth [at least two] silver shekels.
