Tosefta zu Bamidbar 18:28
כֵּ֣ן תָּרִ֤ימוּ גַם־אַתֶּם֙ תְּרוּמַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה מִכֹּל֙ מַעְשְׂרֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֣ר תִּקְח֔וּ מֵאֵ֖ת בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּנְתַתֶּ֤ם מִמֶּ֙נּוּ֙ אֶת־תְּרוּמַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה לְאַהֲרֹ֖ן הַכֹּהֵֽן׃
So gebet auch ihr die Hebe des Herrn von all euren Zehnten, die ihr nehmet von den Kindern Israel; gebet davon die Hebe des Herrn dem Priester Aaron.
Tosefta Terumot
[In summary,] we [may] separate terumah and tithes from the impure on behalf of the impure, and from the the pure on behalf of the pure, and from the impure on behalf of the pure, but not from the pure on behalf of the impure (contrary to Rabbi Eliezer above (and see Bava Kamma 115b:14)). Rabbi Nehemiah says, we do not separate [terumah] from the impure on behalf of the impure, but only as to demai. They said to him, behold, it says (Num. 18:28), "... and [they] are to give from them the contribution of God to Aharon the priest" (i.e., the Torah does not distinguish between pure and impure in relation to terumah).
