In honor of the President of Israel, my eyes and heart, Mr. Shneur Zalman Shazar, who shows mercy to and honors with all sorts of grace and glory the true guardians of the city, who love him with great and abundant affection because, with the great preciousness of his supreme soul, he merited to distinguish and understand the real Truth, which is a secret new weapon, that conquers and kills all the falsehood and ultimate sources of defilement of false faiths and secular wisdoms that destroy and ruin the world with heresies and atheism and bring all the afflictions and evils in the world, may G-d have mercy upon us. Peace and blessing and all good.
My dear heart. It has been a long time that writing has been very difficult for me. For the illness of old age has overcome me exceptionally. My eyes have dimmed and my hands have weakened and my knees have stumbled and my strength has flagged and faltered from day to day. Hashem knows how much you are residing in my heart always, and my heart is broken and crushed and full of bitterness that I have not succeeded in fulfilling your desire to give you life and to rejoice your soul with the words of the true Sage and Leader, who consoles and rejoices and sustains the soul of every living thing forever.
With all my heart and soul, I express and arrange before you my faithful blessing, a blessing of welcome, to your very dear and honored brother, for whom Hashem has done great things and merited him to come and tread on the Holy Soil, in the Land of our desire and life, our resting place and our hope, the place of our holy faith and wisdom, the place ready for wisdom and to recognize the Truth, the place from which will go out the light of Truth to everyone in the world, the place to which the eyes of all Israel are raised. And may you bear a blessing from Hashem, and His wondrous kindnesses, for your benefit, in this world and the next, on your seventy-fifth birthday. May Hashem add to you and your household a good and long life, a new life, pleasant and refreshed, a life of blessing and success, in everything that you put your hand into for the benefit of our people and our land, a life in which you will merit to break all the concealments and obstacles and preoccupations and delays from coming close to th e point of the Truth, a life in which you will merit to put into your heart and into the heart of all the people the light of the True Tzaddik, who is the main life-force and sustainance of the world and our main Redemption and the salvation of our souls, through whom the world will become completely new. For he will overturn the whole world from falsehoood to truth, from total denial to complete faith, from darkness to great light, speedily in our days, Amen.
The blessing of your loving friend and servant, faithful and dedicated with all my heart and soul, in truth.
