משנה: הַשּׂוֹכֵר אֶת הָאוּמָּנִין וְחָזְּרוּ בָהֶן יָדָן לַתַּחְתּוֹנָה. אִם בַּעַל הַבַּיִת חוֹזֵר בּוֹ יָדוֹ לַתַּחְתּוֹנָה. כָּל הַמְשַׁנֶּה יָדוֹ לַתַּחְתּוֹנָה וְכָל הַחוֹזֵר בּוֹ יָדוֹ לַהַתַּחְתּוֹנָה.
MISHNAH: If somebody hired tradesmen and they backed out they are disadvantaged; if the householder backs out, he is disadvantaged. Anyone changing the terms of a contract is disadvantaged; anyone backing out of a contract is disadvantaged.
