משנה: הַמַּדְלִיק אֶת הַגָּדִישׁ וְהָיוּ בוֹ כֵלִים רִבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר יְשַׁלֵּם כָּל מַה שֶׁבְּתוֹכוֹ וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים אֵינוֹ מְשַׁלֵּם אֶלָּא גָדִישׁ שֶׁל חִטִּין אוֹ גָדִישׁ שֶׁל שְׂעוֹרִין. הָיָה גְדִי כָפוּת לוֹ וְעֶבֶד סָמוּךְ לוֹ וְנִשְׂרַף עִמּוֹ חַיָיב. עֶבֶד כָפוּת לוֹ וּגְדִי סָמוּךְ לוֹ וְנִשְׂרַף עִמּוֹ פָּטוּר. וּמוֹדִין חֲכָמִים לְרִבִּי יְהוּדָה בַּמַּדְלִיק אֶת הַבִּירָה שֶׁהוּא מְשַׁלֵּם כָּל מַה שֶׁבְּתוֹכָהּ שֶׁכֵּן דֶּרֶךְ בְּנֵי אָדָם לְהַנִּיחַ בַּבָּתִּים.
MISHNAH: He who sets fire to a stack of sheaves which contains implements, Rebbi Jehudah says, he has to pay everything contained in it but the Sages say, he pays only for a stack of wheat sheaves or a stack of barley sheaves. If a goat was tied to it, and a slave was nearby, and they were burned, he is liable. If a slave was tied to it, and a goat was nearby, and they were burned, he is not liable. But the Sages agree with Rebbi Jehudah that one who sets fire to a building has to pay everything contained in it since people regularly store things in houses.
