Mishnah שביעית ט׳:ח׳ · Sheviis 9:8
מִי שֶׁהָיוּ לוֹ פֵּרוֹת שְׁבִיעִית וְהִגִּיעַ שְׁעַת הַבִּעוּר,
מְחַלֵּק מְזוֹן שָׁלֹשׁ סְעֻדּוֹת לְכָל אֶחָד וְאֶחָד.
וַעֲנִיִּים אוֹכְלִין אַחַר הַבִּעוּר, אֲבָל לֹא עֲשִׁירִים, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי יְהוּדָה.
רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, אֶחָד עֲנִיִּים וְאֶחָד עֲשִׁירִים אוֹכְלִין אַחַר הַבִּעוּר:
One who had Sheviis produce and the time of biur arrived -
he distributes food for three meals to each and every person.
And the poor may eat after biur, but not the wealthy; the words of Rabbi Yehuda.
Rabbi Yose says: both the poor and the wealthy may eat after biur:
A reading aid, not an exact translation.

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.
