Pakurirana nevamwe

Submit yourselves in mishma'at (obedience) to HASHEM. Resist HaSatan, and he will flee from you.

Draw near to HASHEM and HASHEM will draw near to you. Cleanse your yadayim (hands), you chote'im (sinners)! And purify your levavot, you anashim of double mind!

Be humbled before HASHEM and He will exalt you.

But He gives all the more Chen v'Chesed! Therefore it says, HASHEM LALETZIM HU YALITZ V'LA'ANAYIM YITEN CHEN (HASHEM opposes the proud mocker but gives grace to the humble).

To the one having da'as, therefore, knowing to do tov and not doing it, to him it is chet.

Or you make techinot (petitions) and you do not receive, because you ask wrongly, that on your ta'avot (lusts) you may spend what you receive.

No'efot (adulterers)! Do you not have da'as that to have shaichus (closeness, friendship, intimacy) with the Olam Hazeh is eyvah im HASHEM (enmity with G-d)? Therefore, whoever chooses to make the Olam Hazeh his Oihev is made an Oyev (Enemy) of HASHEM.

Yet you do not even have da'as of what tomorrowʼs “yom” may bring. Look at your life! Are you not an ed (mist), appearing a short time, then indeed disappearing?
