Mishnah 1

Mishnayos Bava Kamma Perek 3 Mishnah 5

בבא קמא פרק ג׳ משנה ה׳

5
If this person came in the public domain with his barrel, and that person came from the opposite direction with his cross beam, and this one’s jug was broken by that one’s cross beam, the one carrying the cross beam is exempt, because this one had permission to walk in the public domain, and that one also had permission to walk there. If they were walking in the same direction, so that the owner of the cross beam was walking first, in front, and the owner of a barrel last, behind him, and the barrel was broken by the cross beam, the owner of the cross beam is exempt, since the owner of the barrel saw him in front of him and should have been more careful. But if the owner of the cross beam stopped, causing the barrel to collide with the beam and break, the former is liable, since the latter had no way of anticipating that he would stop. And if he said to the owner of the barrel: Stop, he is exempt from liability for breaking the barrel. Conversely, if the owner of the barrel was walking first and the owner of the cross beam last, and the barrel was broken by the cross beam, the owner of the cross beam is liable. But if owner of the barrel stopped, the owner of the cross beam is exempt from liability for breaking the barrel. And if he said to the owner of the cross beam: Stop, the owner of the cross beam is liable. And similarly, these halakhot apply in a case where this one came with his lamp and that one came with his flax, and the lamp set fire to the flax.
זֶה בָּא בְחָבִיתוֹ, וְזֶה בָּא בְקוֹרָתוֹ, נִשְׁבְּרָה כַדּוֹ שֶׁל זֶה בְּקוֹרָתוֹ שֶׁל זֶה, פָּטוּר, שֶׁלָּזֶה רְשׁוּת לְהַלֵּךְ וְלָזֶה רְשׁוּת לְהַלֵּךְ. הָיָה בַעַל קוֹרָה רִאשׁוֹן, וּבַעַל חָבִית אַחֲרוֹן, נִשְׁבְּרָה חָבִית בַּקּוֹרָה, פָּטוּר בַּעַל הַקּוֹרָה. וְאִם עָמַד בַּעַל הַקּוֹרָה, חַיָּב. וְאִם אָמַר לְבַעַל הֶחָבִית עֲמֹד, פָּטוּר. הָיָה בַעַל חָבִית רִאשׁוֹן וּבַעַל קוֹרָה אַחֲרוֹן, נִשְׁבְּרָה חָבִית בַּקּוֹרָה, חַיָּב. וְאִם עָמַד בַּעַל חָבִית, פָּטוּר. וְאִם אָמַר לְבַעַל קוֹרָה עֲמֹד, חַיָּב. וְכֵן זֶה בָא בְנֵרוֹ וְזֶה בְפִשְׁתָּנוֹ:
ה׳

היה בעל קורה ראשון וכו' פטור – for this one walks in an appropriate manner and the other one hurried to go.

היה בעל קורה ראשון וכו׳ פטור. שזה מהלך כדרכו וזה מיהר ללכת:

Mishnah 2

Mishnayos Bava Kamma Perek 3 Mishnah 6

בבא קמא פרק ג׳ משנה ו׳

6
With regard to two people who were walking in the public domain, or one who was running and another one who was walking, or who were both running, and they damaged one another, both of them are exempt.
שְׁנַיִם שֶׁהָיוּ מְהַלְּכִין בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים אֶחָד רָץ וְאֶחָד מְהַלֵּךְ, אוֹ שֶׁהָיוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם רָצִים, וְהִזִּיקוּ זֶה אֶת זֶה, שְׁנֵיהֶם פְּטוּרִין:
ו׳

חד רץ ואחד מהלך וכו' – Our Mishnah is deficient and should be read as follows: one is running and the other is walking on the Eve of the Sabbath or the Eve of Jewish holy days or that both of them were running in the rest of the days of he year, both of them are exempt, for on the eves of the Sabbath and Jewish holy days, the one who ran is running with permission for he is going to perform a Mitzvah in order to prepare for the needs of the Sabbath or the Jewish holy day, and because of this, he is exempt. But on the rest of the days of the year, when both of them are running and both of them are strange, both of them are exempt [from liabilities caused to one another].

אחד רץ ואחד מהלך וכו׳ מתניתין חסורי מחסרא והכי קתני, אחד רץ ואחד מהלך בערבי שבתות וימים טובים, או שהיו שניהם רצים בשאר ימות השנה, שניהם פטורים. דבערבי שבתות וימים טובים מי שרץ רץ ברשות, שהולך לדבר מצוה להכין לצרכי שבת. ויו״ט, ומשום הכי פטור. ובשאר ימות השנה כששניהם רצים, הואיל ושניהם משנים, שניהם פטורים:
