[אמרו המגיהים מתחלת הפרשה עד מעשה ידי להתפאר קי"ד א' הוא מן הסבא ויגענו ומצאנו הנסחא מדויקת תלי"ת.] פָּתַח ר' שִׁמְעוֹן ואָמַר, (שמות כ״א:א׳) וְאֵלֶּה הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים אֲשֶׁר תָּשִׂים לִפְנֵיהֶם, תַּרְגוּם, וְאִלֵּין דִּינַיָּא דִּתְסַדֵּר קֳדָמֵיהוֹן. אִלֵּין אִינּוּן סִדּוּרִין דְּגִלְגּוּלָא, דִּינִין דְּנִשְׁמָתִין, דְּאִתְדָּנוּ כָּל חַד וְחַד לָקֳבֵל עוֹנְשֵׁיהּ.
