[If] any sacrifices became mixed with chatas- offerings that must be left to die, or with an ox that must be stoned — even [if only] one in ten thousand — they must all be left to die.  [If] they became mixed with an ox with which a sin has been committed — either [an ox] that has killed a person according to [the evidence of] one witness, or [the evidence of] the owner, [or] with an animal that has committed an act of bestiality, or an animal on which an act of bestiality has been performed, or with an [animal] designated [for idolatrous sacrifice], or one which has been worshipped; or [it became mixed] with a [harlot’s] payment, or a [dog’s] exchange, or a mixed breed, or a tereifah, or [an animal] born by Caesarean section — they should be left to pasture until they become blemished, [after which] they should be sold, and with the money of the most expensive of them, he should bring the same kind [of offering]. [If] it mixed with unblemished, unconsecrated [animals], the unconsecrated [animals] should be sold to those in need of that kind [of offering].

Offerings [which became mixed] with [other] offerings [of] the same kind should each be offered for whomever [is the owner]. Offerings [which became mixed] with offerings [of] a different kind should be left to pasture until they become blemished, [after which] they should be sold; [then] for the money of the most expensive of them, he must bring one of each kind [of offering], and make up the difference from his own funds. [If] they became mixed with a bechor- or maaser-offering, they should be left to pasture until they become blemished and [then] be eaten as bechor- and maaser-offerings. Any [kind of offering] can become mixed up [with any other kind] except for the chatas offering [with] the asham-offering.

[If] an asham-offering became mixed with a shelamim-offering, they should be left to graze until they become blemished. R’ Shimon says: Both of them should be slaughtered in the north and be eaten according to [the laws of] the more stringent of them. They said to him: One may not expose offerings to an area of disqualification. [If] slices [of offering meat] became mixed with [other] slices — [whether it was] most holy offerings with offerings of lesser holiness, [or] those which are eaten for one day with those which are eaten for two days — they should be eaten according to [the laws of] the more stringent of them.

[If] the limbs of a chatas offering mixed with the limbs of an olah-offering — R’ Eliezer says: Let him place them atop [the Altar] and consider the chatas meat on top as if it were wood. But the Sages say: It must [be left] until its form becomes marred and [then] be taken out to the place of burning.

5. [If] the limbs [of valid olah offerings became mixed] with limbs of blemished [olah offerings] — R’ Eliezer says: If the head of one of them was offered, all the heads should be offered; [if] the leg of one [of them was offered], all the legs should be offered. But the Sages say: Even if all of them have been offered except for one, it should be taken out to the place of burning.

[If] blood mixed with water — if it has the color of blood it is valid. [If] it mixed with wine, we view it as if it were water. [If] it mixed with the blood of an animal or the blood of a beast, we view it as if it were water. R’ Yehudah says: Blood cannot nullify blood.

[If] it mixed with the blood of invalidated [offerings], it should be poured into the canal; [if it mixed] with draining blood, it should be poured into the canal. R’ Eliezer validates [it]. If he did not take counsel and applied [the blood to the Altar], it is valid.

[If] blood from unblemished [offerings mixed] with blood from blemished [offerings], it should be poured into the canal. [If] a cup [of blood became mixed up] among [other] cups [of blood] — R’ Eliezer says: [If] one cup was offered, they should offer all the cups; but the Sages say: Even if all [the cups] but one were offered, it should be poured into the canal.

[If] those [bloods] which are applied below mixed with those [bloods] which are applied above — R’ Eliezer says: Let him apply [the blood] above and view the lower [blood] which is above as if it were water; and [let him then] return and apply it below. But the Sages say: Let them be poured into the canal. But if he did not take counsel and applied [the blood above], it is valid.

[If blood] requiring one application [to the Altar] mixed with [blood] requiring one application, they should be applied in one application. [If blood] requiring four applications [mixed] with [blood requiring] four applications, they should be applied in four applications. [If blood] requiring four applications [mixed] with [blood] requiring one application — R’ Eliezer says: They should be applied in four applications. R’ Yehoshua says: They should be applied in one application. Said R’ Eliezer to him: But he thereby transgresses [the commandment] (Deut. 13:1): Do not subtract! Said R’ Yehoshua to him: But he thereby transgresses [the commandment] (Deut. 13:1): Do not add! Said R’ Eliezer to him: Do not add applies only when it is by itself. Said R’ Yehoshua to him: Do not subtract applies only when it is by itself. R’ Yehoshua said further: If you make [four] applications you transgress, Do not add, and perform an act; but if you do not make [four] applications, [though] you transgress, Do not diminish, you have not performed an act.

[Blood] that is applied inside, which became mixed with [blood] that is applied outside, should be poured into the canal. [If] he applied [it] outside and then applied [it] inside, it is valid. [If he applied it] inside and then applied [it] outside: R’ Akiva disqualifies, but the Sages validate. For R’ Akiva had said: All [offerings whose] blood was introduced into the Sanctuary to atone are disqualified; but the Sages say: Only a chatas-offering. R’ Eliezer says: Also the asham-offering, for it is said (Lev. 7:7): As the chatas-offering so the asham-offering.
