Mishnah 1א׳

רַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אוֹמֵר, נִדָּה שֶׁיָּשְׁבָה עִם הַטְּהוֹרָה בְּמִטָּה, כִּפָּה שֶׁבְּרֹאשָׁהּ טָמֵא מִדְרָס. יָשְׁבָה בִסְפִינָה, כֵּלִים שֶׁבְּרֹאשׁ הַנֵּס שֶׁבַּסְּפִינָה טְמֵאִין מִדְרָס. נוֹטֶלֶת עֲרֵבָה מְלֵאָה בְגָדִים, בִּזְמַן שֶׁמַּשָּׂאָן כָּבֵד, טְמֵאִין. בִּזְמַן שֶׁמַּשָּׂאָן קַל, טְהוֹרִין. זָב שֶׁהִקִּישׁ עַל כְּצוֹצְרָא, וְנָפַל כִּכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה, טָהוֹר:

Rabbi Yehoshua says, [If] a niddah [a menstruant woman] sat with a clean woman on a bed, [even] the cap on her [the clean woman's] head are unclean due to [uncleanliness called] midras [treading contact]. [If] she [the menstruant woman] sat in a boat, [even] the vessels that are on top of the mast are unclean due to midras. [If] she took a tub of clothes, if their weight was heavy, they are unclean, [If] their weight was light, they are clean. [If] a zav knocks against a balcony, and [as a result] a loaf of terumah falls, it remains clean.

Mishnah 2ב׳

הִקִּישׁ עַל הַמָּרִישׁ, עַל הַמַּלְבֵּן, עַל הַצִּנּוֹר, וְעַל הַדַּף, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא עָשׂוּי בַּחֲבָלִים, עַל הַתַּנּוּר, וְעַל הַיָּם, וְעַל אִצְטְרֻבָּל, וְעַל חֲמוֹר שֶׁל רֵחַיִם שֶׁל יָד, וְעַל סְאָה שֶׁל רֵחַיִם שֶׁל זֵיתִים, רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, אַף עַל קוֹרַת הַבַּלָּנִין, טָהוֹר:

[If a zav ] knocked [against] a joist, a rafter frame, a [water] pipe, a shelf, although it is secured [only] with ropes [not with nails], an oven, a flour receiver [to collect the flour after it is ground], a lower mill-stone, the [wooden] base of a of a hand mill, the se'ah [a specific unit of volume] measure of an olive grinder [fixed to the ground], Rabbi Yose says, also [if he knocks] into the bath attendant's board, it [remains] clean.

Mishnah 3ג׳

הִקִּישׁ עַל הַדֶּלֶת, עַל הַנֶּגֶר, עַל הַמַּנְעוּל, עַל הַמָּשׁוֹט, וְעַל הַקֶּלֶת, וְעַל אִילָן שֶׁכֹּחוֹ רַע, וְעַל סוֹכָה שֶׁכֹּחָהּ רַע, עַל אִילָן יָפֶה, עַל סֻלָּם מִצְרִי בִּזְמַן שֶׁאֵינוֹ קָבוּעַ בְּמַסְמֵר, עַל הַכֶּבֶשׁ, עַל הַקּוֹרָה וְעַל הַדֶּלֶת בִּזְמַן שֶׁאֵינָן עֲשׂוּיִין בְּטִיט, טְמֵאִין. עַל הַשִּׁדָּה, עַל הַתֵּבָה וְעַל הַמִּגְדָּל, טְמֵאִין. רַבִּי נְחֶמְיָה וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מְטַהֲרִין בָּאֵלּוּ:

[If a zav ] knocked against a door, a door-bolt, a lock, an oar, a mill-stone frame, a weak tree, a weak branch of a strong tree, on an Egyptian ladder that was not secured [to a wall] with a nail, [or they sat together] on a bridge, a rafter, on a door that was not made [secured] with clay, they are unclean. [If a zav knocked] on a chest, a box, a cupboard they are unclean. Rabbi Nechemia and Rabbi Shimon render them [the latter three case] clean.

Mishnah 4ד׳

זָב שֶׁהָיָה מֻטָּל עַל חֲמִשָּׁה סַפְסָלִים אוֹ עַל חָמֵשׁ פֻּנְדִּיּוֹת, לְאָרְכָּן, טְמֵאִין. לְרָחְבָּן, טְהוֹרִין. יָשֵׁן, סָפֵק שֶׁנִּתְהַפֵּךְ עֲלֵיהֶן, טְמֵאִין. הָיָה מֻטָּל עַל שִׁשָּׁה כִסְיוֹת, שְׁתֵּי יָדָיו עַל שְׁנַיִם, שְׁתֵּי רַגְלָיו עַל שְׁנַיִם, רֹאשׁוֹ עַל אֶחָד, גּוּפוֹ עַל אֶחָד, אֵין טָמֵא אֶלָּא זֶה שֶׁתַּחַת הַגּוּף. עוֹמֵד עַל שְׁנֵי כִסְאוֹת, רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר, אִם רְחוֹקִין זֶה מִזֶּה, טְהוֹרִין:

[If] a zav was lying on five benches or five money-bags, [if he was lying on them] lengthwise they are unclean, [if he was lying on them] breadthwise they are clean. [If] he slept [on them across their width and] there is doubt whether he turned over on them [along their length], they are unclean. If he was lying on six seats, [with] his two hands on two [seats], his two feet on two [seats], his head on one [seat], [and] his body on one [seat], only the one [seat] that was under his body is unclean. If he sood on two seats, Rabbi Shimon says, if they were distant from each other, they are clean.
