The General Remedy
This is the repair of the Covenant that is called the General Remedy, as explained in Likutei Moharan (#29.4, q.v.). It is also a repair for a wet dream — God forbid — to say these ten Psalms the same day it happened, as explained in the introduction of this book; please go and see there. |

Introduction
It is stated in Likutey Moharan, Part One, Torah 205, and this is his wording: "A remedy for a nocturnal incident, God forbid, is to say ten chapters of Psalms on the day it occurred, God forbid, because there is power in reciting Psalms to extract the drop that was taken, from out of the husks, for 'Psalms' (תהלים = 485) in gematria equals 'Lilith' (לילית+5 = 485) with the five letters of her name, which is the one appointed over this, as is known. One must intend at the time of reciting Psalms that 'Psalms' in gematria equals 'drop' (תפה = 485) which corresponds to the number of the two names of God in full, like this: ALF LMD; ALF LMD HY YUD MM (111+74 + 111+74+15+20+80 = 485), through these two names, the drop is extracted from the husk. For the drop is a manifestation of kindness and severity, as is known, for it has the power of fire and water; warmth and moisture, which are manifestations of kindness and severity, and through the two names of God mentioned above, which are manifestations of kindness and severity, as is known, they equal the gematria of 'Psalms' as mentioned, through this, the drop is extracted from there. This must be intended at the time of reciting Psalms.
"Therefore, one must say ten chapters. For there are ten types of song, which correspond to the ten languages in which the Book of Psalms is mentioned, as brought (in the Talmud Pesachim 117 and in the Zohar), which are: Ashrei, Lamenatzeach, Maskil, Hallelujah, etc. (see Rashi's commentary). Each of the ten languages mentioned has the power to nullify the power of the shell mentioned above, for each of these languages is the opposite of the aforementioned shell. For Ashrei is a language of seeing and observation, the opposite of the shell, which primarily takes away the ability to see, from the aspect of 'and his eyes will be dimmed from seeing'; the aspect of 'let there be light' is lacking, and our sages, may their memory be blessed (Tikkunei Zohar, Tikkun 44), have explained that Lilith is found to primarily take away the ability to see, and Ashrei, which is a language of seeing, is the opposite of her. Likewise, Maskil, for it is in the aspect of understanding, and Maskil is the opposite of this. This matter is explained elsewhere, for the primary power to cause a person to stumble by a nocturnal incident, God forbid, is through the language of translation, which is in the aspect of understanding through the translator, which mixes good and evil; sometimes MSKL/causing stumbling and sometimes MSKYL/causing understood, see there. Likewise, Hallelujah is the opposite of the hulk, whose name is Lilith because she always howls (yellalah), and Hallelu is the opposite of howling, for the letters of 'Hallelu' are the opposite of 'howl' (and the rest is not explained). Also, the drop comes from knowledge, which is in the aspect of kindness and severity, as is known, for the drop is also in the aspect of kindness and severity as mentioned. It is known that knowledge is in the aspect of five kindnesses and five severities, therefore one must say ten chapters. This is in the aspect of: 'To David, a Maskil, Ashrei Nesui Pesha/Fortunate is the one who is forgiven for transgression, the initials being 'NAF' (adultery), which is subdued through the aspect of 'To David, a Maskil,' meaning Psalms."
And in Likutey Moharan, Part Two (Torah 92), it is stated in this wording: "A remedy for an incident, God forbid, is to say ten chapters of Psalms, as explained in the first book (in Torah 205), see there, etc. And know that the matter of the ten types of melody mentioned, which correspond to the aforementioned flaw, is hinted at in these verses:
- BERAKHA: 'I will bless (ABRK) the Lord who counsels me, even at night...';
- ASHREI: 'Fortunate (ASHRY), is he that is forgiven for transgression, covered of sin';
- MASKIL: 'And from the Lord, a wise woman (or woman conceives) (MSKLT)';
- SHIR: 'And at night, His song (ShIRH) is with me';
- NITZUACH: 'To the conductor (LMNTzCh), do not destroy';
- NIGGUN: 'I will remember my melody (NGINTI) at night';
- TEFILA: 'Will the tasteless (TFL) be eaten without salt?';
- HODU: 'Lest you give your glory (HODK) to others';
- MIZMOR: 'He gives melodies at night';
- HALLELUYAH: 'A woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised (TTHLL)'
(and understand these hints well). "And know that these are the ten chapters of Psalms: 16, 32, 41, 42, 59, 77, 90, 105, 137, 149. They are a very great remedy for the aforementioned matter. And whoever is fortunate to say them on that day does not need to fear any longer from the terrible flaw of the incident, God forbid, for it is certainly rectified through this.:
Also, once he said that one must be very careful to immerse on that day, so that the person is not impure, and even if one cannot immerse in the morning, at least one should immerse on that day, even towards evening, for one must be very careful to immerse on that day. When I was at my home in Nemyriv, he revealed the ten chapters of Psalms before the rabbi here in Breslev and before my friend Rabbi Naftali from Nemyriv, and he designated them as witnesses to this, and said to them: "Since in this known matter (meaning a nighttime incident, God forbid) three parts of the world are certainly caught, I take you as witnesses, and you should know that these ten chapters of Psalms are very, very beneficial for the rectification of nocturnal emissions, and they are a complete and very beneficial remedy.
"And there are those who may experience this due to excessive eating and drinking, or due to weakness and fatigue, or due to not lying down properly, and all this is nothing (and it is like a baby who urinates in a year). There are also those who are protected from above and are saved from the incident, or luck protects them and they are saved. Sometimes a person may dream that they are falling, and then they wake up from their sleep; this is also a sign from heaven that saves them from this. However, whoever experiences this, God forbid, due to improper thoughts, from this, actual shells are created, God forbid, as explained in the books. But whoever says these ten chapters of Psalms on that day will certainly rectify this very much.
"And many great tzaddikim wanted to understand this matter and labored to find a complete remedy for it; some of them did not know at all what this matter was, and some began to understand a little about this rectification and passed away in the midst of their efforts without completing it. And I, with the help of the Blessed God, was fortunate to understand this completely. The matter of this rectification through the recitation of the aforementioned ten chapters of Psalms is something entirely new, a wonderful novelty! For it is a wonderful and very powerful remedy (see below). And whoever can go to the mikveh and then say them, certainly it is good. But even if one is forced and cannot immerse, such as being ill or traveling, even so, if they say them, it is good for them, for they are a great and very powerful remedy. And if they say them with proper intention, certainly it is very good, but even the recitation itself is very effective.
And he said that this was not known since the day of the creation of the world; I would certainly want to completely nullify this, but this is not possible, neither in the physical nor in the spiritual. In the physical, it is impossible because it would require nullifying and changing the nature of all of humanity continuously, and this is something that cannot be done, for even Moses our teacher, peace be upon him, when he nullified nature, it was only temporarily and in a specific matter, such as the splitting of the Red Sea or the crossing of the Jordan, which was only for a moment. But to nullify the nature of all of humanity, for each and every one must necessarily nullify and change their nature, and it must also be continuously nullified and changed, this is something that is impossible, and also in spirituality, it is impossible, etc. But the ten chapters are a wonderful, precious, and very beneficial thing.
He also designated them as witnesses and said that even when his days are fulfilled, then, after his passing, whoever comes to his grave and says these ten chapters of Psalms there and gives a coin for charity on his behalf, "even if his transgressions and sins are very, very great, God forbid, then I will strive and exert myself the length and breadth of the world to save him and rectify him. And I am strong in all that I say, but in this, I am strongest of all, that these ten chapters of Psalms are very, very beneficial, and these are the ten chapters of Psalms, etc. And they should be said in the order they are written in Psalms." And he said that this is a General Remedy, for every transgression has its specific remedy, but the aforementioned remedy is the General Remedy. He also said then that the matter of the ten chapters of Psalms should be said and revealed before everyone, and he said that even though it is easy to say ten chapters of Psalms, nevertheless, this will also be very difficult to fulfill. And this remedy is entirely new, and no creature has known of it since the days of the world, and they should be said in the name of our Rabbi, may his memory be blessed, so that his lips may speak in the grave, which all the righteous long for. May his merit stand for us, and may he rectify us from all our flaws and troubles, and may he save us, Amen, may it be His will.
He also explains in the conversations after the "Tales of Stories" that he warned his followers that when an impure incident occurs, God forbid, they should immediately go to the mikveh to immerse. Because sometimes the incident leads to more, God forbid. Therefore, it is very good that one should precede and prepare themselves before something happens, God forbid, to immerse and purify themselves.
He strongly warned that a person should not be afraid of this at all, for fear, worries, and melancholy regarding this matter are very harmful, especially after he has revealed these ten chapters of Psalms. He then said that whoever is fortunate to fulfill this, to say these ten chapters of Psalms on the day it happens to them, God forbid, will certainly rectify their sin, and they should not worry at all. He also joked about those pious and fearful ones, that when they have some improper thought, they are afraid that they will come to an incident, God forbid, and because of this, they are accustomed to leniency out of fear that they will come to an incident. He, may his memory be blessed, made fun of this, and his main intention was that a person should not be afraid or be apprehensive at all about such matters, and should not think thoughts at all regarding this, but should be like a mighty warrior standing against their desires and completely divert their mind from it, and should not be afraid at all, and the good Lord will do with him as He wishes.
He hinted in his words that this was a flaw of King David, peace be upon him, with Bathsheba, etc., and he did not explain the matter well. We must strengthen ourselves in joy always, and not let our minds fall at all because of anything in the world, even if something happens to them. If one is strong in their mind and does not fear at all, and does not think thoughts at all (which is called 'overthinking'), and walks in simplicity with joy, they will ultimately merit to pass through everything in peace. Such matters cannot be fully explained in writing, and the wise will understand them correctly.
Also, without this, he strongly warned to be accustomed to immersing in the mikveh, and he said that on days when we do not say Tachanun, such as during the days of Nissan and the like, as brought in the Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, one should be especially accustomed to immersing in the mikveh. May we merit to fulfill all his words truly and sincerely, Amen, may it be His will."
Opening Prayers
|
Three verses customarily said before reading Tehilim:
Go, let us sing joyously to Adonai (Master of all; He Who was, is, and will be); let us shout out to the Rock of our salvation! Let us advance facing Him with thanksgiving; with melodic song let us shout out to Him! For Adonai is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

It is good to say this prayer:
I am preparing my mouth to thank, praise, and honor my Creator, to bring about a unification of the Holy Blessed One and His Shechinah, in awe and fear, through the [Godliness that is] hidden in the world, in the name of all Yisrael. |

Before reciting the Tehillim it is good to connect oneself to the Tzaddikim. I am connecting myself in saying the ten chapters of Tehilim to all the true Tzaddikim that are in our generation, and to all the true Tzaddikim resting in dust; especially to our Holy Rabbi, Tzadik Yesod Olam, The “Flowing Brook, a Fountain of Wisdom” (Prov. 18:4) our Rabbi Nachman ben Feiga who revealed this Tikkun. May his merit protect us and all Yisrael, Amen. |

The Ten Tehillim/Psalms
|
Psalm 16 1. A Michtam by David. Protect me, El (Almighty God), for I take refuge in You. 2. [Though my soul] has declared to Hashem, "You are Adonai (my Master)," still the goodness in me has not made its return to You. 3. But by the holy ones who are [buried in what is now an aspect of the] Land [of Yisrael] though it is in the foreigners' [Land][1], and the mighty ones [We'ADiReY i.e. someone with all the Yud, ten, powers; v. Sipurei Maasiyot #13 Day 6],[2] all my desire is in them [BaM, words of Torah]. 4. May the sorrows of them who scurry to some other (i.e. idolatry) increase; I will not pour their blood libations, and I will not raise their names on my lips. 5. Hashem, the Guide of my share [CheLKI =148] and my cup is You, Who guide my destiny. 6. Though burdens [ChoBL] fall on me, [they are repaired and sweetened] by bliss [No`AM, the mentality of the Land of Yisrael], even becoming a pleasant inheritance unto me. 7. [Lest the No`AM is overcome by the ChoBaLim] I too will bless Hashem, Who has counseled me [to choose sanctity]; even at night my conscience instructs me. 8. I have placed Hashem before me constantly; because [He is] at my right-hand [by tipping to the scale of merit], I will not sink [into foreign intellects]. 9. Therefore, my heart rejoiced, and my soul was glad; even my flesh by recognizing the Divine will dwell securely. 10. For You will not leave my soul cast off in netherworlds, [for] You will not allow Your pious one to [have to come to my aid and] see [and help me out from] destruction. 11. You will make me know the path of life: the fullness of the joy [to live] in Your presence, the [Divine] bliss [sweetening and repair which is] at Your right hand [the scale of merit] forever victorious. |

Psalm 32 1. By David, a Maskil. Fortunate is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 2. Fortunate is the man to whom Adonai ascribes no iniquity and in whose spirit there is no guile. 3. When I was silent, my bones decayed with my moaning all day long. 4. For [both] day and night Your hand was heavily upon me; my freshness was transformed as in the droughts of summer, Selah. 5. My sin I make known to You, and my iniquity I do not conceal; I said, "I will confess my transgressions to Adonai," and You have [always] forgiven my iniquitous sin, Selah. 6. For this [the Divine Presence] let every pious man judge himself: [to draw close] to You before [misfortune] befalls, only before the flooding of might waters [of afflictions]; such a person they will not reach. 7. You are a hiding-place for me, from distress You guard me; with songs of deliverance You encompass me, Selah. 8. "I will enlighten you and instruct you in the way which you shall go; I will wink My eye to you." 9. Be not like a horse or like a mule that does not discern, which must be muzzled with its adornment of bit and rein, that it should not come near you. 10. Many are the pains of the wicked, but as for him who trusts in Adonai — kindness will encompass him. 11. Rejoice in Adonai and exult, O righteous ones, and cause all those of upright hearts to sing praises! |

Psalm 41 1. For the Leader, a song by David. 2. Fortunate is he who considers the sick; on a day of calamity Adonai will rescue him. 3. Adonai will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be called fortunate in all the land, and You will not deliver him into the desire of his enemies. 4. Adonai will support him on his sickbed; when You have transformed his entire restfulness in his illness. 5. I said, "Adonai, be gracious to me; heal my soul because I have sinned against You." 6. My enemies speak evil of me; "When will he die and his name be lost?" 7. And if he comes to see [me], he speaks falsely; his heart gathers iniquity to itself; when he goes outside, he speaks of it. 8. All my enemies whisper together about me; against me do they devise my hurt. 9. "An evil thing shall be poured into him, and once he lies down, he will no longer rise." 10. Even my ally, in whom I trusted, who eats my bread, developed an ambush for me. 11. But You, Adonai, be gracious to me and raise me up, so that I may repay them. 12. By this I shall know that You delight in me, when my enemy does not shout joyfully over me. 13. And as for me, because of my integrity You shall support me, and set me up before Your face forever. 14. Blessed be Adonai, Elohei/(God of) Yisroel, from [one end of] the world, to the [other end of] the world. Amen and amen! |

Psalm 42 1. For the Leader, a Maskil by the sons of Korach. 2. As a she-deer cries longingly for rivulets of water, so does my soul cry longingly to You, Elohim (God, Almighty Master of all forces). 3. My soul thirsts for Elohim, for the living God: “When will I come and appear before Elohim [in the Holy Temple]?” 4. My tears were my bread day and night when they say to me all day long, "Where is your God?" 5. These things I will remember, and I will pour out my soul [because of the pain which is] upon me: How I passed on in covered [wagons], pacing slowly up to the House of Elohim with a joyful shouting and thanksgiving, a celebrating multitude. 6. Why are you downcast, my soul, and why do you wail over me? Hope to Elohim, for I will yet thank Him for the salvations of His presence. 7. My God, the soul that is upon me is downcast; therefore, I will remember You from the land of Yardan and the peaks of Chermon, from the young mountain. 8. One deep [trouble] calls to [another] deep [trouble]; [I am ready] to hear the sound of Your water channels [of afflictions]; all your breakers and waves are gone over me. 9. By day, Adonai commands His kindness, and at night, His song is with me, a prayer to the God [who guards] my life. 10. I will say to God, my Rock, "Why have You forgotten me? Why should I walk in gloom under the oppression of the enemy?" 11. With murder in my bones, my oppressors have reproached me by saying to me all day long, "Where is your God?" 12. Why are you downcast, my soul, and why do you moan over me? Hope to Elohim, for I will yet thank Him for the salvations of my countenance and my God. |

Psalm 59 1. For the Leader, a plea to be spared from destruction; by David, a michtam; when Shaul dispatched and they guarded the house to slay him. 2. Rescue me from my enemies, my God; from those who rise up against me, save me. 3. Save me from workers of iniquity; and from bloodthirsty men rescue me. 4. For behold, they lurked for my soul; strong men lodge against me, neither for any transgression of mine nor for any sin of mine, Adonai. 5. Without any iniquity [of mine], they run and prepare themselves; awaken [Yourself] towards me and see. 6. And You, Adonai-Elohim Tzevaot, God of Israel, arise to visit upon all the nations; be not gracious to any treacherous workers of iniquity, Selah. 7. They return in the evening, they howl like a dog and go round about the city. 8. Behold, they spew forth with their mouth; [they have] swords in their lips, for who hears? 9. But You, Adonai, will laugh at them; You will mock all the nations. 10. [In face of] his strength, for You do I wait, for Elohim is my stronghold. 11. The God of my kindness will precede me; Elohim will show me what befalls my watchful foes. 12. Do not kill them, lest my people forget; make them wander [destitute] with Your power and bring them down, Adonai our Shield. 13. The sin of their mouth is the word of their lips, and they will be seized because of their haughtiness, and because of the curse and the lies that they tell. 14. Destroy [them] with wrath, destroy them so they be no longer, and let [people] know that Elohim rules in Yaacov to the ends of the earth, Selah. 15. And let them return towards evening, let them howl like dogs and go round about the city. 16. Groaning [for food] they will roam about to eat; if they are not sated, they will lodge. 17. And I will sing of Your power, and I will sing praises of Your kindness in the morning, for You were my stronghold and a refuge on a day that I was in straits. 18. My strength! To You will I sing, for Elohim is my stronghold, God of my kindness. |

Psalm 77 1. For the Leader, on yedutun, by Asaf, a song. 2. My voice is to God (El Elohim), when I cry out; my voice is to God (El Elohim), that he give ear to me. 3. On the day of my distress, I sought Adonai; my wound oozes at night and does not abate; my soul refuses to be comforted. 4. I remember Elohim and I moan; I speak and my spirit becomes faint, Selah. 5. You held my eyes from [getting any sleep]; I am stricken and unable to speak. 6. I think of days of yore, ancient years. 7. I recall my music at night; I speak with my heart and my spirit searches. 8. "Will Adonai forsake [me] forever and nevermore be appeased? 9. Is His kindness ended forever? Has He finished consoling? 10. Has the Merciful God forgotten graciousness? Has He, in anger, shut off His mercy?” Selah. 11. And I said, "This is to infirm me, this change of the right hand of the Most High." 12. I recall the deeds of Yah when I remember Your wonder from time immemorial. 13. And I meditate over all Your works, and of Your deeds I speak. 14. Elohim, Your way is in sanctifying [your Name by judging the wicked]. Who is a great god as Elohim? 15. You are the God Who works wonders; You made known Your might among the peoples. 16. You redeemed Your people with Your arm, the sons of Yaacov and Yosef, Selah. 17. The waters saw You, Elohim, the waters perceived You, and they trembled, the deeps even quaked. 18. They poured forth thick waters; the skies let out a voice [of thunder], even your arrows [of lightning] went abroad. 19. The sound of Your thunder [rebuked] the wheel[s of Pharao’s chariots]; the lightning illuminated the world; the earth trembled and roared. 20. In the sea was Your way, and Your path in the mighty waters; afterwards Your steps were not known [when the sea returned to its strength to cover the Egyptians]. 21. You led Your people like sheep by the hand of Moshe and Aharon. |

Psalm 90 1. A prayer by Moshe, the man of Elohim. Adonai, a shelter are You; You have been for us, in generation after generation. 2. Before the mountains were born, and when the earth and inhabited land were yet non-existent, and from everlasting to everlasting, You are the God. 3. You bring a man down to a crushing point, and You say, "Return, O sons of men." 4. For if a man lived a thousand years, they would be in Your eyes like a bygone yesterday, for they will but pass away, and be like a watch in the night. 5. You flow them; they are as a [dream] during sleep; in the morning, like grass he passes away. 6. In the morning, it blossoms and is rejuvenated; by evening, it is cut off and withers. 7. For we perish from Your wrath, and from Your anger we are dismayed. 8. You have placed our iniquities before You, [the sins of] our youth before the light of Your countenance. 9. For all our days have passed away in Your anger; we have consumed our years as a fleeting thought. 10. The days of our years because of them are seventy years, and if with strength, eighty years; but their proudest success is toil and pain, for it is quickly shorn off and we fly away. 11. Who knows the power of Your anger, and Your wrath according to the reverence that is due unto You? 12. To number our days, so inform [us], that we may get a heart of wisdom. 13. Return, Adonai [from Your wrath]. How long? And be consoled [in thinking favorably] regarding Your servants. 14. Satiate us in the morning with Your loving-kindness, and we will sing out and rejoice throughout our days. 15 Cause us to rejoice according to the days that You afflicted us, the years when we saw evil. 16. May Your works appear to Your servants, and Your majesty to their sons. 17. And may the pleasantness of Adonai Eloheinu be upon us, and the work of our hands, establish for us (w/o mishap to us), and the work of our hands, establish it. |

Psalm 105 1 Give thanks to Adonai, proclaim His name; make His deeds known among the peoples. 2. Sing enthusiastically to Him, play music to Him, speak of all His wonders. 3. Boast of His holy name; may the heart of those who seek Adonai rejoice. 4. Search for Adonai and His might; seek His presence constantly. 5. Remember His wonders, which He performed, His miracles and the judgments of His mouth. 6. The seed of Avrahom His servant, the children of Yaacov, His chosen ones. 7. He is the Adonai Eloheinu; throughout all the earth are His judgments. 8. He remembered His covenant forever, the word He had commanded to the thousandth generation, 9. [The Covenant] which He cut with Avrahom, and His oath to Yitzchak, 10. And He set it up to Yaacov as a statute, to Yisroel as an everlasting covenant, 11. Saying, "To you I shall give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance." 12. When they were few in number, hardly dwelling in it. 13. And they walked [in their customs] among one nation and then among another nation, from one kingdom to another people. 14. He let no man rob them, and He reproved kings on their account. 15. "Do not touch My anointed ones, and do not harm My prophets." 16. He called a famine upon the land; He broke every staff of bread. 17. He sent a man before them; Yosef was sold as a slave. 18. They afflicted his foot with fetters; his soul was placed in irons. 19. Until His word came, the saying of the Adonai purified him. 20. A king sent and released him, a ruler of peoples [sent] and loosed his bonds. 21. He made him the master of his household and the ruler over all his possessions. 22. To bind up his princes at his wish, and he made his elders wise. 23. Yisroel came to Egypt, and Yaacov sojourned in the land of Cham. 24. And He made His people very fruitful, and He made it stronger than its adversaries. 25. He turned their heart to hate His people, to plot against His servants. 26. He sent Moshe His servant, [and] Aharon whom He chose. 27. They placed upon them the words of His signs and His miracles in the land of Cham. 28. He sent darkness and it darkened, and [the signs] did not disobey His word. 29. He turned their water into blood, and killed their fish. 30. Their land swarmed with frogs, [even] in the rooms of their monarchs. 31. He commanded and a mixture of noxious beasts came, lice throughout their entire boundary. 32. He made their rains into hail, flaming fire in their land. 33. And it struck their vines and their fig trees, and it broke the trees of their boundary. 34. He spoke and locusts came, and nibbling locusts without number. 35. And they consumed all grass in their land, and they consumed the produce of their soil. 36. And He smote every firstborn in their land, the first of all their strength. 37. And He took them out with silver and gold, and there was no pauper among their tribes. 38. Egypt rejoiced with their departure, for their fear had fallen upon them. 39. He spread out a cloud for shelter, and fire to illuminate the night. 40. They asked, and He brought quails, and the bread of heaven sated them. 41. He opened a rock and water flowed; in the deserts ran rivers. 42 For He remembered His holy word with Avrahom His servant. 43. And He took out His people with joy, His chosen ones with joyful singing. 44. And He gave them lands of nations, and they inherited the toil of regimes. 45. In order that they keep His statutes and observe His laws. Halleluyah! |

Psalm 137 1. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat, we also wept when we remembered Tzion. 2. On willows in its midst we hung our harps. 3. For there our captors asked us for words of song and our tormentors [asked of us] mirth, "Sing for us of the song of Tzion." 4. "How shall we sing the song of Adonai on foreign soil?" 5. If I forget you, Yerushalayim, may my right hand forget [its skill].6 May my tongue cling to my palate, if I do not remember you, if I do not elevate Yerushalayim above my foremost joy. 7. Remember, Adonai, and repay the children of Edom; and the day of Yerushalayim, those who say, "Raze it, raze it, down to its foundation!" 8. Daughter of Babylon, who is destined to be plundered, praiseworthy is he who repays you in accordance with how you have done to us. 9. Praiseworthy is he who will take and dash your infants against the rock. |

Psalm 150 1. Halleluyah! Praise God in His holy place, praise Him in the firmament of His might. 2. Praise Him for His mighty deeds; praise Him as befits His superb greatness. 3. Praise Him the blast of the shofar; praise Him with psaltery and lyre. 4. Praise Him with timbres and dance, praise Him with stringed instruments and flute. 5. Praise Him with resounding cymbals; praise Him with far-sounding trumpets. 6. Let every soul praise Yah! Halleluyah! |

Concluding Prayers
|
After the Tehillim say these verses:
O that the salvation of Yisrael would come from Tzion!; When Adonai returns the captivity of His people, Ya`akov shall rejoice, Yisrael shall be glad. And the redemption of the righteous is from Adonai, their stonghold at times of trouble. And Adonai helped them and rescued them; He rescued them from the wicked and saved them because they took refuge in Him.

אחר שסיים תהלים יאמר שלשה פסוקים אלה:
מִי יִתֵּן מִצִּיּוֹן יְשׁוּעַת יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּשׁוּב יקוק שְׁבוּת עַמּוֹ, יָגֵל יַעֲקֹב יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל: וּתְשׁוּעַת צַדִּיקִים מֵיקוק, מָעוּזָּם בְּעֵת צָרָה: וַיַּעְזְרֵם יקוק וַיְפַלְּטֵם, יְפַלְּטֵם מֵרְשָׁעִים וְיוֹשִיעֵם כִּי חָסוּ בוֹ: |

This prayer we found in a sack of [Rabbi Natan's?] documents, and it is of small quantity but vast quality.
Master of the World, Primal Cause and Driver of everything, You are above and transcendent above everything and there is nothing higher than You, for thought cannot have any grasp of You whatsoever. And for You, silence is a more of a praise and loftier than any blessing or worship. You I seek, You I request, that You breach an opening for a paved channel from You down through all the worlds, down to my spot in the web where I am standing, as it is revealed to You, Who know the hidden things. And through this path and channel shine Your light on me, to bring me back in complete teshuvah/return before Your presence in truth, in accord with Your will, in reality, in accord with the will of the Choicest of all Your creatures[3], so that I should not entertain in my thinking, any extraneous thought or any confusion that is contrary to Your will, but only cleave to clear, lucid, and holy thoughts in Your service, in truth, in perception of You and in Your Torah. "Hat-libi el-`edoteikha/Incline my heart unto Your testimonies [the Torah], and give me a pure heart to serve You in truth. And take me out from the ocean's abyss unto great light very speedily and soon; the salvation of Hashem [instantaneous] as the blink of an eye, to illuminate all the days of my life in the Ohr Hachayim/Your influx of light to all life, while I am on the face of the Earth. And make me privileged to renew my youth, the days which transpired in darkness, to bring them back into sanctity. And let my going from this world be like my coming — faultless. And let me privileged to gaze upon Hashem's Blissfulness and visit His Temple-chamber; it all proclaims, "Kavod/His Presence!" Amen, netzach selah va`ed/forever and ever. |
זאת התפלה מצאנו באמתחת הכתבים והיא מעט הכמות ורב האיכות:
רבונו של עולם, עלת העלות וסבת כל הסבות, אנת לעלא, לעלא מן כלא, ולית לעלא מנך, דלית מחשבה תפיסא בך כלל, ולך דומיה תהלה, ומרמם על כל ברכה ותהלה. אותך אדרש, אותך אבקש שתחתר חתירה דרך כבושה מאתך, דרך כל העולמות, עד ההשתלשלות שלי במקום שאני עומד, כפי אשר נגלה לך, יודע תעלומות, ובדרך ונתיב הזה תאיר עלי אורך, להחזירני בתשובה שלמה לפניך באמת, כפי רצונך באמת, כפי רצון מבחר הברואים, לבלי לחשב במחשבתי שום מחשבת חוץ ושום מחשבה ובלבול שהוא נגד רצונך, רק לדבק במחשבות זכות צחות וקדושות בעבודתך באמת בהשגתך ובתורתך. הט לבי אל עדותיך, ותן לי לב טהור לעבדך באמת. וממצולות ים תוציאני לאור גדול חיש קל מהרה. תשועת יהוה כהרף עין, לאור באור החיים כל ימי היותי על פני האדמה. ואזכה לחדש נעורי, הימים שעברו בחשך, להחזירם אל הקדשה, ותהיה יציאתי מן העולם כביאתי, בלא חטא. ואזכה לחזות בנעם יהוה ולבקר בהיכלו, כלו אומר כבוד, אמן נצח סלה ועד:
