Section 8 of 46 in Sh'lach — 10 segments

Segment 1א׳

תָּא חֲזֵי, לֵית רְשׁוּ לִבְנֵי עָלְמָא לְמֵימַר מִלִּין סְתִימִין וּלְפָרְשָׁא לוֹן, בַּר בּוּצִינָא קַדִּישָׁא רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן, דְּהָא קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא אִסְתָּכַּם עַל יְדוֹי. וּבְגִין דְּדָרָא דִּילֵיהּ רְשִׁימָא הוּא לְעֵילָּא וְתַתָּא, וְעַל דָּא מִלִּין אִתְּמָרוּ בְּאִתְגַּלְיָיא עַל יְדוֹי, וְלָא יְהֵא דָּרָא כְּדָרָא דָּא דְּאִיהוּ שָׁארֵי בְּגַוִיהּ, עַד דְּיֵיתֵי מַלְכָּא מְשִׁיחָא.

Hence men are not permitted to utter secret things and divulge them, save only the Holy Lamp, R. Simeon, since the Holy One, blessed be He, has concurred with him, and because his generation is distinguished both on high and below, and therefore things are divulged through him, and there shall be no such another generation till the Messiah comes.

Segment 2ב׳

אֲבָל תָּא חֲזֵי, כְּתִיב (בראשית א׳:כ״ז) וַיִּבְרָא אֱלֹהִים אֶת הָאָדָם בְּצַלְמוֹ בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים בָּרָא אוֹתוֹ (בכלא הוא כעין דוגמא דעילא תא חזי) רָזָא דְּמִלָּה, תְּלַת עָלְמִין אִית לֵיהּ לְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא, דְּאִיהוּ גָּנִיז בְּגַוָויְיהוּ. עָלְמָא קַדְמָאָה, הַהוּא עִלָּאָה טְמִירָא דְּכֹלָּא, דְּלָא אִסְתָּכַּל בֵּיהּ, וְלָא אִתְיְדַע בֵּיהּ, בַּר אִיהוּ, דְּאִיהוּ גָּנִיז בְּגַוִּויהּ.

Now, as for your question. The Holy One, blessed be He, has three words in which He is enshrouded. The first is a supernal recondite one which is known only to Him who is concealed therein.

Segment 3ג׳

עָלְמָא תִּנְיָינָא, דְּאִיהוּ קָשִׁיר בְּהַהוּא דִּלְעֵילָּא, וְדָא הוּא דְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא אִשְׁתְּמוֹדַע מִנֵּיהּ, כְּמָה דִּכְתִּיב (תהילים קי״ח:י״ט) פִּתְחוּ לִי שַׁעֲרֵי צֶדֶק, זֶה הַשַּׁעַר לַיְיָ. וְדָא הוּא עָלְמָא תִּנְיָינָא.

The second one is linked with the first and is the one from which the Holy One, blessed be He, is known.
