Talmud for Makhshirin 3:6

הָיוּ זֵיתָיו נְתוּנִים בַּגַּג וְיָרְדוּ עֲלֵיהֶן גְּשָׁמִים, אִם שָׂמַח, בְּכִי יֻתַּן. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, אִי אֶפְשָׁר שֶׁלֹּא לִשְׂמֹחַ, אֶלָּא, אִם פָּקַק אֶת הַצִּנּוֹר אוֹ אִם חִלְחֵל לְתוֹכָן:

[If] one's olives were placed on the roof and rain fell upon them, if he is happy [with that] it achieves <i>BeKhi Yutan</i>. Rabbi Yehudah says: It is impossible not to be happy, but if he plugged the gutter or turned them [the olives, it achieves <i>BeKhi Yutan</i>].
