[edit] Hebrew Text
- חָתָן פָּטוּר מִקְּרִיאַת שְׁמַע בַּלַּיְלָה הָרִאשׁוֹן עַד מוֹצָאֵי שַׁבָּת,
- אִם לֹא עָשָׂה מַעֲשֶׂה.
- מַעֲשֶׂה בְּרַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל
- שֶׁקָּרָא בַּלַּיְלָה הָרִאשׁוֹן שֶׁנָּשָׂא.
- אָמְרוּ לוֹ תַּלְמִידָיו:
- לֹא לִמַּדְתָּנוּ, רַבֵּנוּ, שֶׁחָתָן פָּטוּר מִקְּרִיאַת שְׁמַע בַּלַּיְלָה הָרִאשׁוֹן?
- אָמַר לָהֶם:
- אֵינִי שׁוֹמֵעַ לָכֶם לְבַטֵּל מִמֶּנִּי מַלְכוּת שָׁמַיִם אֲפִלּוּ שָׁעָה אֶחָת.
