Mishnah 1א׳

הַכַּדּוּר וְהָאִמּוּם וְהַקָּמֵעַ וְהַתְּפִלִּין שֶׁנִּקְרְעוּ, הַנּוֹגֵעַ בָּהֶן, טָמֵא. וּבְמַה שֶּׁבְּתוֹכָן, טָהוֹר. הָאֻכָּף שֶׁנִּקְרַע, הַנּוֹגֵעַ בְּמַה שֶּׁבְּתוֹכוֹ, טָמֵא, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהַתֶּפֶר מְחַבְּרוֹ:

A ball, a mold, an amulet or tefillin which were torn [after becoming impure]: one that touches them becomes impure, but one that touches what is inside them remains pure. A saddle which was torn: one that touches its contents becomes impure, because the stitching joins them.

Mishnah 2ב׳

אֵלּוּ טְמֵאִין מִשּׁוּם מֶרְכָּב, זָרֵיז הָאַשְׁקְלוֹנִי, וּמְדוֹכָה הַמָּדִית, וְעָבִיט שֶׁל גָּמָל, וְטַפֵּיטָן שֶׁל סוּס. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, אַף טַפֵּיטָן שֶׁל סוּס טָמֵא מִשּׁוּם מוֹשָׁב, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁעוֹמְדִין עָלָיו בַּקֻּמְפּוֹן. אֲבָל אֻכָּף שֶׁל נָאקָה, טָמֵא:

The following are susceptible to impurity as objects that are fit for riding upon: an Ashkelonian saddle, a Medean saddle, a camel's cushion, and a horse-cloth. Rabbi Yose says: a horse-cloth is susceptible to impurity as a seat, since people stand on it in the arena. But a saddle of a camel is susceptible to [sitting] impurity.

Mishnah 3ג׳

מַה בֵּין מֶרְכָּב לְמוֹשָׁב. מֶרְכָּב חָלַק מַגָּעוֹ מִמַּשָּׂאוֹ, וּמוֹשָׁב לֹא חָלַק מַגָּעוֹ מִמַּשָּׂאוֹ. תָּפִית שֶׁל חֲמוֹר שֶׁהוּא יוֹשֵׁב עָלֶיהָ, טָהוֹר. שִׁנָּה בָהּ אֶת הַנְּקָבִין, אוֹ שֶׁפֵּרְצָן זֶה לְתוֹךְ זֶה, טְמֵאָה:

What is the practical difference between [the uncleanness of an object used for] riding upon and [one used for] sitting upon? [An object] ridden upon has a distinction between contact with it and carrying it, but in the case of [an object that is] sat upon, there is no difference between contact with it and carrying it. The pack-frame of a donkey on which he sat is pure, but if he changed the size of the spaces or if they have been broken one into another, it is susceptible to impurity.

Mishnah 4ד׳

הַמִּטָּה וְהַכַּר וְהַכֶּסֶת שֶׁל מֵת, הֲרֵי אֵלּוּ טְמֵאִין מִדְרָס. כִּסֵּא שֶׁל כַּלָּה, וּמַשְׁבֵּר שֶׁל חַיָּה, וְכִסֵּא שֶׁל כּוֹבֵס שֶׁהוּא כוֹרֵם עָלָיו אֶת הַכֵּלִים, אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹסֵי, אֵין בָּהֶם מִשּׁוּם מוֹשָׁב:

The bier, the mattress and the pillow of a corpse are susceptible to midras uncleanness [transmitted by sitting or lying]. A bridal chair, a birthing stool, and a launderer's stool on which he piles the clothes: Rabbi Yose says: they are not regarded as a seat.

Mishnah 5ה׳

הַחֵרֶם, טָמֵא מִפְּנֵי הַזּוּטוֹ. הָרְשָׁתוֹת, וְהַמִּכְמָרוֹת, וְהַמַּדָּף, וְהַפְּלָצוּר, וּמְצֻדּוֹת הַסְּכָרִין, טְמֵאִין. וְהַאָקוֹן, וְהָרְטוֹב, וְהַכְּלוּב, טְהוֹרִין:

A fishing net is susceptible to uncleanness on account of its bag. Nets, snares, bird-traps, slings and fishermen's skeins are susceptible to impurity. A fish-trap, a bird-basket and a bird-cage are not susceptible to impurity.
