משנה: יֵשׁ חַיָיב עַל מַעֲשֵׂה שׁוֹרוֹ וּפָטוּר עַל מַעֲשֵׂה עַצְמוֹ. פָּטוּר עַל מַעֲשֵׂה שׁוֹרוֹ וּחַיָיב עַל מַעֲשֵׂה עַצְמוֹ. שׁוֹרוֹ שֶׁבִּיֵישׁ פָּטוּר הוּא שֶׁבִּיֵישׁ חַיָיב. שׁוֹרוֹ שֶׁסִּימָּה אֶת עֵין עַבְדּוֹ וְהִפִּיל אֶת שִׁנּוֹ פָּטוּר וְהוּא שֶׁסִּימָּה אֶת עֵין עַבְדּוֹ וְהִפִּיל אֶת שִׁנּוֹ חַיָיב. שׁוֹרוֹ שֶׁחָבַל בְּאָבִיו וּבְאִמּוֹ חַיָיב וְהוּא שֶׁחָבַל בְּאָבִיו וּבְאִמּוֹ פָּטוּר. שׁוֹרוֹ שֶׁהִדְלִיק אֶת הַגָּדִישׁ בַּשַׁבָּת חַיָיב וְהוּא שֶׁהִדְלִיק אֶת הַגָּדִישׁ בַּשַׁבָּת פָּטוּר מִפְּנֵי שֶׁנִּידּוֹן בְּנַפְשׁוֹ.
MISHNAH: A person may be liable for the action of his bull but not liable for his own action, not liable for the action of his bull but liable for his own action: If his bull puts to shame, he is not liable; but if he put to shame, he is liable. If his bull blinded the eye of his slave or knocked out his tooth, he is not liable; but if he himself blinded the eye of his slave or knocked out his tooth, he is liable. If his bull injured his father or his mother, he is liable; but if he himself injured his father or his mother, he is not liable. If his bull set fire to a stack of sheaves on the Sabbath; he is liable, but if he set fire to a stack of sheaves on the Sabbath, he is not liable since he will be tried for a capital crime.
