Section 52 of 102 in Bereshit — 3 segments

Segment 1א׳

הֵיכָלָא תִנְיָינָא. הֵיכָלָא דָא קַיְימָא לְגוֹ מֵהַאי הֵיכָלָא קַדְמָאָה, וְהַאי (פתחא איהו סמיך לגו מערתא) (נ"א היכלא סמיך למערתא) דְּאֲבָהָן. וְהַאי הֵיכָלָא נָהִיר מִקַּדְמָאָה. הָכָא אִית כָּל אֲבָנִין יַקִּירִין דְּמַקְפָן לֵיהּ.

The second palace. This palace stands within the first palace, and its entrance is close to the interior of the cave of the patriarchs. This palace is more radiant than the first. Here are all the precious stones that surround it.

Segment 2ב׳

בְּגוֹ דְּהַאי הֵיכָלָא, אִית נְהִירוּ חַד כָּלִיל מִכָּל גְּוָונִין וְאִיהוּ נָהִיר מֵעֵילָא לְתַתָּא. בְּהַאי הֵיכָלָא קַיָּימִין (כל) אִנּוּן דְּסָבְלוּ יִסּוּרִין וּמַרְעִין בְּהַאי עָלְמָא בְּגִין לְאִתְתַּקְּנָא. וְהֲווּ מוֹדָן וּמְשַׁבְּחָן לְמָרֵיהוֹן כָּל יוֹמָא. וְלָא הֲווּ מְבַטְּלִין צְלוֹתַיְיהוּ לְעָלְמִין.

Within this palace there is a radiance comprising all colours, and it shines from above downward. In this palace stand those who bore sufferings and sicknesses in this world in order to be made right, and who gave thanks and praise to their Master every day, and never neglected their prayers.

Segment 3ג׳

לְגוֹ מֵהַאי הֵיכָלָא קַיָּימִין כָּל אִנּוּן דִּמְקַדְּשִׁין (בכל יומא) בְּכָל חֵילָא שְׁמָא דְמָרֵיהוֹן וְאֲתִיבוּ אָמֵן יְהֵא שְׁמֵיהּ רַבָּא מְבָרַךְ בְּכָל חֵילָא. וְאִלֵּין אִנּוּן קַיָּימִין לְגוֹ בְּגוֹ הַאי הֵיכָלָא. וְהַהוּא נְהוֹרָא דְּכָלִיל כָּל גְּוָונִין נָהִיר לוֹן. מֵהַהוּא נְהִירוּ קַיָּימִין וְחָמָאן נְהוֹרִין אָחֳרָנִין דְּאִתְאַחֲדָן וְלָא אִתְאַחֲדָן בְּגַוַּויְיהוּ. וְעֵילָא מִנְּהוֹן מָשִׁיחַ דְּאִיהוּ עָאל וְקָאִים בֵּינַיְיהוּ וְנָחִית לוֹן.

Within this palace stand all those who sanctify the name of their Master with all their strength and who answer, “Amen, may His great name be blessed”, with all their strength. These stand innermost within this palace, and that light which comprises all colours shines upon them. From that radiance they stand and behold other lights, which are joined and not joined within them. And above them is the Messiah, who enters and stands among them and brings them down.
