Section 3 of 6 in Sifra DiTzniuta — 19 segments

Segment 1א׳

פִרְקָא תִּנְיָינָא דִּיקְנָא (אד"ר מן דף קל"א עד קל"ה) מְהֵימָנוּתָא. (דיקנא) לָא אַדְכַּר בְּגִין דְּהִיא יַקִירוּתָא דְּכֹלָּא מֵאֻדְנִין נַפְקַת, בְּסָחֲרָנָהָא דְּבֹּסִיטָא, סָלִיק וְנָחִית חוּטָא חִוְורָא. בִּתְלֵיסָר מִתְפְּרַשׁ.

Second Chapter. The beard of faith. It (the beard) is not mentioned [in the TaNaCh] because it is the gloriousness of all, it has emerged from the ears, in its circling around the mouth, a white thread ascends and descends. In thirteen it is dividing itself.

Segment 2ב׳

בְּיָקִירָא דִּבְיָקִירוּתָא הַהִיא, כְּתִיב (ירמיהו ב׳:ו׳) לא עָבַר בָּהּ אִישׁ וְלָא יָשַׁב אָדָם שָׁם. אָדָם (ויקרא מ"ח ע"א) לְבַר הוּא. אָדָם לָא כָּלִיל הָכָא. כָּל שֶׁכֵּן אִישׁ. בִּתְלֵיסָר נְבִיעִין מַבּוּעִין מִתְפָּרְשָׁן, אַרְבַּע בִּלְחוֹדוֹי אִסְתָּמָרוּ. תִּשְׁעָה אַשְׁקְיוּן לְגוּפָא. (נ"א לגנתא).

About this Glory of Gloriousness is written: "Through it no man (Ish, איש) passed, and no person (Adam, אדם) dwelled there" [Jeremiah 2:6]. Adam, he is outside. Adam is not included here, the more so Ish. In thirteen streams the sources become separated, four by themselves are being careful, nine are giving the body (another reading: the garden) to drink.

Segment 3ג׳

(תיקונא קדמאה) מִקָּמֵי פְּתִחָא דְּאֻדְנִין, שָׁאֲרִי יָקִירוּ לְאִתְתָּקָן, (תניינא) נָחִית בִּשְׁפִּירִי בְּרֵישָׁא דְּשִׂפְוָון. מֵהַאי רֵישָׁא לְהַאי רִישָׁא קָאִים. (תליתאה) אָרְחָא דְּנָפִיק תְּחוֹת תְּרֵין נוּקְבִין דְּפַרְדַּשְׂקָא, לְאַעְבְרָא חוֹבָה, דְּכְתִּיב (משלי י״ט:י״א) וְתִפְאַרְתּוֹ עֲבוֹר עַל פָּשַׁע. (רביעאה) תְּחוֹת שִׂפְוָון אַסְחַר שַׂעֲרָא לְרִישָׁא אַחֲרָא. (חמישאה) אָרְחָא אַחֲרָא נָפִיק תְּחוֹתוֹי. (שתיתאה) חָפֵי תַּקְרוּבְתָּא דְּבוּסְמָא, לְרֵישָׁא דִּלְעֵילָּא. (שביעאה) תְּרֵין תַּפּוּחִין אִתְחָזוּן לְאַנְהָרָא בּוּצִינִין. (תמינאה) מַזָּלָא דְּכֹלָּא, תַּלְיָיא עַד לִבָּא, בֵּיהּ תַּלְיָין עִלָּאִין וְתַתָּאִין.

(First tiqqun) From the front of the opening of the ears the Glory starts to get installed, (Second [tiqqun]) descending with beauty at the upper part of the lips, being established from this upper part to that upper part. (Third [tiqqun]) The road that goes out below two cavities of the nose to remove sin, as is written "His beauty [is] to go by offense" [Proverbs 19:11]. (Fourth [tiqqun]) Below the lips hair circles to the other upper part. (Fifth [tiqqun]) Another road goes out from below it (Sixth [tiqqun]) covering an offering of spice for the head above.(Seventh [tiqqun]) Two apples are seen to enlighten the lamps. (Eighth [tiqqun]) The flux of all hangs down until the heart. In it hang down the upper and lower ones.
