Section 37 of 46 in Sh'lach — 4 segments

Segment 1א׳

אִי חֲסִידָא קַדִּישָׁא, כַּמָה מְשַׁבַּח רַב מְתִיבְתָּא הֵיכָלָא חֲדָא, דְּאִיהוּ בְּרֵישׁ סְטָר מִזְרָח דַּעֲזָרָה דָּא, בְּגִין דְּאַרְבַּע אִינּוּן בְּד' סִטְרִין דְּעָלְמָא, אֲבָל הֵיכָלָא דִּסְטָר מִזְרָח, אַסְגֵּי נְהוֹרִין דִּילֵיהּ יַתִּיר מְכֻּלְּהוּ.

O holy pious one, how greatly does the Head of the Academy praise one palace, which is at the head of the east side of this court! For there are four of them, at the four sides of the world; but the palace of the east side — its lights are increased beyond them all.

Segment 2ב׳

יוֹמָא חַד, בְּיַמָּא רַבָּא, לִוְיָתָן נָפִיק, וְכָל יַמָּא אִזְדַּעְזָע, וְכָל נוּנֵי אָזְלִין לְכָאן וּלְכָאן, כַּד מָטֵי לִוְיָתָן בְּפִתְחָא דְּפִתְחָא דִּתְהוֹמָא, שָׁארֵי לְמֶחְדֵּי, וְאִשְׁתְּכַךְ תַּמָּן ם תְּהוֹמֵי ם, אֶלָּא הַהוּא ם כְּחֵיזוּ דְּמַעְיָין, וְאִתְחַפְּיָין נְהוֹרִין, וְלָא אִתְחָזוּן כָּל אִינּוּן נְהוֹרִין, בַּר נְהוֹרָא דְּהֵיכָלָא דְּבִסְטַר מִזְרָח דָּא.

One day, in the great sea, Leviathan goes out, and all the sea trembles, and all the fishes go here and there. When Leviathan reaches the opening of the opening of the abyss, he begins to rejoice, and it is stilled there — Mem — the abysses, Mem; but that Mem is like the appearance of a spring, and the lights are covered, and all those lights are not seen, save the light of this palace that is on the east side.

Segment 3ג׳

הַהוּא מַרְגְּלָא דְּקָא אַפִּיק לִוְיָתָן, מִגּוֹ הַהוּא תְּהוֹמָא דְּאִקְרֵי סַגְדוֹ"ן, מִמָּה אִתְעָבִיד. אֶלָּא יוֹמָא דָּא דְּקָא אַפִּיק לִוְיָתָן, דְּאִזְדַּעְזָע יַמָּא, יוֹמָא דְּאִתְחָרַב בֵּי מַקְדְּשָׁא, ט' בְּאָב אִיהוּ. וְהַהוּא מַרְגְּלָא, דְּכַד דָּכִיר קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא לִבְנוֹי, וְאוֹשִׁיד (שמות ט' ע"א) תְּרֵין דִּמְעִין לְגוֹ יַמָּא רַבָּא, חַד נָפִיל לְגוֹ תְּהוֹמָא דָּא דְּאִקְרֵי סַגְדּוֹ"ן, וְחַד נָפִיל לְגוֹ תְּהוֹמָא אַחֲרָא דְּאִקְרֵי גִּילְבָ"א.

That pearl which Leviathan brings out from within that abyss which is called Sagdon — of what is it made? But this day on which Leviathan goes out, when the sea trembled, is the day on which the Temple was destroyed: it is the ninth of Ab. And that pearl: when the Holy One, blessed be He, remembers His children and sheds (Shemot, folio 9a) two tears into the great sea, one falls into this abyss which is called Sagdon, and one falls into another abyss which is called Gilba.
