Difference in translation? What translation? Evidently you didn’t read what the Talmud says there and repeated as though your own an unattributed misquote.

See what happens when you repeat what some blog says.

I can’t understand why you wouldn’t check what Marshall says when it could be done with a few key strokes. Or did you?

There are several translations of the Talmud, and besides several editions in the original Hebrew. One English translation is digitized (Kethuboth), you quoted from it and found no textual match but substantially, it is a match. Dr. Marshal apparently used another edition and I do not know if he provided his own translation or used one available to him. I do not own my own copy of the Talmud in any language, but apparently the only one available online is the one you are citing from, and it confirms Dr. Marshall's quote, albeit not verbatim.
