ט ואזדו לטעמייהו דכי אתא רב דימי אמר חייבי מיתות שוגגין וחייבי מלקיות שוגגין ודבר אחר ר' יוחנן אמר חייב וריש לקיש אמר פטור ר' יוחנן אמר חייב דהא לא אתרו ביה ר"ל אמר פטור כיון דאילו אתרו ביה פטור כי לא אתרו ביה נמי פטור
9 And they follow their own reasoning, for when R. Dimi came [from Eretz Yisrael] he said: He who has committed inadvertently an act which, if he had committed it intentionally, would have been punishable with death or with lashes, and [which is also punishable] with something else, R. Yohanan says he is liable, and Resh Lakish says he is exempt. Yohanan says he is liable, for they did not warn him. Resh Lakish says [that] he is exempt, for since he is exempt if they warned him, so he is exempt also when they did not warn him.
