In honor of the delight of my heart, Sh. Z. Shazar, great in understanding and deep of thought to dig and to find the waters from which will sprout the Holy Faith, in these our generations, for everyone in the world. A strong and correct faith, a perfect faith, pure, bright, and clear. And everyone will become one body to know Hashem and to serve Him as one. Great peace.
Today I received your heartfelt blessing. I shall rejoice and be happy with all my heart that I have found grace and great affection in your good and exalted heart. Many many thanks and blessings for your wonndrous love for me. My eyes and my heart are spread out to Hashem in prayer and petitions that He endow you with grace and kindness and hasten and hurry your salvation, and that He heal you speedily with a complete healing. And that He guard you and save you from all sorts of illnesses and pain, G-d forbid, and that He increase your peace and the peace of your household, for a good long life, healthy and refreshed, in the merit of The Flowing Stream, the Source of Wisdom NA NACH NACHMA NACHMAN ME'UMAN. Amen, so may it be.
Due to many sins Hashem has sent upon me for my benefit suffering and terrible pains in my legs and in my intestines, may we be spared. I am lying in bed and crying before Hashem over the loss of Torah-study and prayer. Also I want to go to the synagogue and to the mikveh [ritual bath], as is my custom to immerse every day in the mikveh. I beseech you earnestly to strengthen yourself to pray that Hashem will have mercy on me and will send me quickly a complete healing from Heaven. And that all the harsh judgments will be sweetened from upon us and from upon Israel. We also need to be registered in the heart of the True Tzaddik, who knows our pains and works for our healing and salvation from generation to generation for eternity.
Trust in Hashem and pray to Him to strengthen yourself greatly in the happiness of the Festival [Passover], in which Hashem did for us awesome miracles and wonders, the opposite of nature. For now we need to strengthen ourselves greatly with joy, which is the cure for all the blows and all the weaknesses, especially on this holy Festival. For then on the night of the Passover Seder are aroused all the ten types of song to sing, from which come all the healings, in body and soul, for us and for all Israel. Amen, may it so be. With blessing for a kosher and happy Festival.
