Segment 1א׳

רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אָמַר, (תהילים כ״ה:י״ד) סוֹד יְיָ' לִירֵאָיו וּבְרִיתוֹ לְהוֹדִיעָם. סוֹד יְיָ' לִירֵאָיו, דָּא כְּנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל. וּבְרִיתוֹ לְהוֹדִיעָם, דָּא צַדִּיק יְסוֹד עוֹלָם, בְּקִשׁוּרָא חָדָא.

R. Simeon said: “The counsel of the Lord is with those who fear Him, and His covenant, to make them know it” (Ps. 25, 14). “The counsel of the Lord is with those who fear Him”: this is the Community of Israel. “And His covenant, to make them know it”: this is the Zaddik, foundation of the world, in a single bond.

Segment 2ב׳

יוֹ"ד, תְּלַת אַתְוָון, שְׁלֵימוּתָא דְּכֹלָּא. י' רֵאשִׁיתָא דְּכֹלָּא. י' עִלָּאָה דְּכֹלָּא. וָא"ו אֶמְצָעִיתָא, שְׁלֵימוּתָא דְּכָל סִטְרִין. מַעְבַּר לְכָל רוּחִין, בֵּיהּ תַּלְיָא מְהֵימְנוּתָא. דָּלֶ"ת, גִּנְתָּא, צְרוֹרָא דְּחַיֵּי. אָת דָּא זְעֵירָא, שְׁלֵימָא דְּכֹלָּא.

Yod: three letters, the completeness of all. Yod, the beginning of all; Yod, the supernal of all. Vau, the middle one, the completeness of every side, passing over to all the spirits; upon it faith depends. Daleth: the garden, the bundle of life. This letter is small, and it is the completeness of all.

Segment 3ג׳

אָת דָּא סְתִימָא דְּכָל סִטְרִין. כַּד נָפִיק, נָפִיק כְּמַלְכָּא עִם חֵילוֹי. תָּב (נ"א יתיב) לְבָתַר, י' בִּלְחוֹדוֹי, בֵּיהּ אַסְתִּים מִלָּה, בֵּיהּ נָפִיק, סָגִיר וּפָּתַח. (נ"א נגיד ונפיק ופתח).

This letter is hidden on every side. When it comes forth, it comes forth like a king with his hosts. Afterwards it returns, Yod by itself: in it the matter is sealed, in it the matter comes forth; it closes and it opens.

Segment 4ד׳

הֵ"א (נ"א דא) שְׁלֵימוּתָא דְּכֹלָּא, לְעֵילָּא וּלְתַתָּא. וְהָא אִתְּמַר, ה', הָא יְדִיעָא. א' הוּא יוֹ"ד, שְׁלִימוּ דִּתְלַת אַתְוָון, דְּאִינּוּן בְּרֵישָׁא, דִּסְתִימִין (ס"א ביו"ד והא אוקמוה) ביה"ו על גבי א' (ס"א דא' הא) וְהָא אוּקְמוּהָ (בי' והא אוקמוה), וְכֹלָּא חַד מִלָּה הוּא, שְׁלִימוּ דִּשְׁמָא קַדִּישָׁא, הוּא שְׁלִימוּ דְּעֵילָּא (ותתא). בְּגִין כַּךְ, לְזִמְנִין הֵ"א נָטִיל א', בְּזִמְנָא דְּהִיא מִתְעַטְּרָא בְּעִטְרוֹי.

He: the completeness of all, above and below. And this has been taught: the He is known. The Aleph is Yod, the completeness of the three letters that stand at the head, which are hidden — Yod-He-Vau above the Aleph — and this has been explained; and all is one matter, the completeness of the Holy Name. It is the completeness of what is above (and below). Therefore at times the He takes the Aleph, at the time when she is crowned with His crowns.

Segment 5ה׳

תָּא חֲזֵי, כָּל אָת וְאָת דִּשְׁמָא קַדִּישָׁא, אִתְחֲזֵי בֵּיהּ שְׁלִימוּ דְּכָל שְׁמָא. יוֹ"ד הָא אִתְּמַר שְׁלִימוּ דְּכֹלָּא. ה' שְׁלִימוּ דְּכֹלָּא וְאַף עַל גַּב דְּלָאו אִיהוּ בְּאָלֶף, ה' בִּלְחוֹדוֹי, הָא אִתְּמַר בְּדִיּוּקְנָא (ס"א דא א' הוא וכו') ה"י (ס"א איהו) (דא ה'). הוּא שְׁלֵימוּתָא דְּכֹלָּא. (וא"ו ה"א ו' בין בסטרא דא, בין בסטרא אחרא, שלימו הוא דכלא. ו"ה) הוּא שְׁלִימוּ יַתִּיר, לְאַעְטְּרָא לְכֹלָּא הָא דְּכֹלָּא חַד, וְהָא אַתְּעֲרוּ בֵּיהּ חַבְרַיָּיא.

Observe: in each and every letter of the Holy Name there is seen the completeness of the whole Name. Yod, as has been taught, is the completeness of all. He is the completeness of all; and although it is not with an Aleph, He by itself, as has been taught, in the figure He-Yod (this is He), is the completeness of all. (Vau-He. The Vau, whether on this side or on that other side, is the completeness of all. Vau-He.) It is a completeness yet greater, to crown all, for all is one; and the Companions have already stirred this matter.
