א"ל רב פפא לאביי לרבה דאמר חידוש הוא שחידשה תורה בקנס ואף על גב דמיקטיל משלם מתניתין כמאן מוקים לה אי כר"מ קשיא בתו אי כרבי נחוניא בן הקנה קשיא אחותו אי כר' יצחק קשיא ממזרת

Papa said to Abaye: According to Rabbah, who says [that] the Torah has innovated and innovation in the matter of fines and [therefore] he pays although he is killed, according to whom does he place our Mishnah? If according to R. Meir, [the law regarding] his daughter is difficult, if according to R. Nehuniah ben Hakaneh, [the law regarding] his sister is difficult; [and] if according to R. Isaac [the law regarding] a mamzeret is difficult?
