LETTER FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN

Blessed be Hashem · Sunday, Parshas Ki Tavo — Uman · Year 5603 (1843)

ToAbundant chesed and He who abundantly benefits — may He multiply His chesed and goodness with him — to incline his heart to Him — and to strengthen and embolden him in strengthening of holiness — to prevail the good over the evil — to incline him toward life. And may he be written and sealed — within the holy gathering — in the book of the righteous — for good life — for long good life — and for peace — to my beloved son — my dear one — the veteran — the rabbinical scholar — and so forth — our Teacher the Rabbi Yitzchok — may he live — with all his descendants — may they live.

On Thursday Parshas Ki Teitzei past — he arrived here in peace — with Hashem's help. And he was awaiting good tidings from his dear friend Rabbi Nachman. And praised be G-d — today — between the prayer and his walk to the holy tziyun — there came to him a bearer of good tidings — he is Rabbi Nachman bar Rabbi M. the Kohen — from their congregation. And he informed him — the salvation of Hashem — that Rabbi Nachman has already come in peace — with twenty silver. Mah nashiv laHashem k'chol asher g'malanu — ad heinah ki'rachamav u'ch'rov chasadav — ilu finu malei. For greatly were his eyes consumed — to hear the good from him. In particular since it is before Rosh Hashana. Good to give thanks to Hashem — Who added His chesed to bring him in peace without the consuming of eyes. Chasd'o gavar aleinu ve'emes Hashem l'olam — hall'luyah. And afterwards he received his letter — with this good tidings — blessed be Hashem Yisborach — Who helped until here. And he should seek from Hashem Yisborach — and give over to Him all his movements — and He Yisborach will complete for him for good — Amen so may it be His will.

And more than this — there is no leisure to extend. Only one must believe — that all that passes over a person — in whatever aspect it is — all are wondrous hints — to understand the deeds of Hashem and His greatness — without measure. In particular before Rosh Hashana — one must pay attention to this more. Would that all of us merit — to renew ourselves in this Rosh Hashana for good — and throw off from ourselves completely — all the confusions of the mind — and so forth — that have been from before. For even so — even so — the mind is in the hand of man to direct it as he wishes. And in particular — may we merit to multiply prayer and supplications — and conversations between him and his Creator. And to begin to accustom himself every day — to make from the Torahs — prayers. For this is a foundation of foundations and rises above all. Ashrei she'yocheiz bazeh. And I have — praised be G-d — much much to speak of this. But the scroll is short and the leisure does not agree.

The words of your father — who awaits to see you quickly with joy.

Nussun of Breslov.

And extend peace to his veteran dear friend — our Teacher the Rabbi Nachman — the merchant — may he live. If he has not yet left his home — see that he bring with him one or two items of merchandise at least. For he greatly needs to see them before the world gathers here — for several reasons. And if it is possible that he bring them with a light expense — with all the fifteen as in his letter — very good. And may Hashem Yisborach complete all for good. And he wonders that he did not write him the extension of peace — from their dear friend Rabbi Nachman — may his light shine — grandson of our Master our Teacher and our Rebbe — the memory of the righteous for a blessing. And also from Rabbi Yosef. And he should send him tidings of them — via Rabbi Nachman or via his letter. And he always yearns for the salvation of Hashem — in all matters — in the general and in the particular — and in the details of details of particularity — both in the need of the material — and in the essential healing and livelihood — which is the healing and livelihood of the soul — his and his household and all those attached — and all of Israel. For our needs are very very many — which it is impossible to detail. But He Yisborach is mighty to save — and to Him are all our hopes — in the power of the elder — who blessed the children with good life and long life. Nagila v'nismecha bishu'aso — Amen ken y'hi ratzon. And also Rabbi Ephraim son of Rabbi Naftali sent him a letter in Tshehrin — that he write to him that he should purchase for him lulavim and hadassim — proper and mehudar. May Hashem Yisborach grant all of them — to be in the category of the weeping child — until they merit to a mehudar esrog with all its species. Would that they merit to smell the good fragrance of all the holy mitzvos — and in particular the holy mitzvos of this holy month — which is the month of Tishrei — coming upon them for good — Amen.

Here begin the letters of the year 5604.
