קטז.

[This letter opens mid-sentence in the source text.] …Whom Hashem has chosen from all of Israel — and stirred his spirit and set his heart ablaze like a burning fire — to set ablaze and to kindle the hearts of Israel toward the Nachal Noavaya. Who is the light of Moshiach — alive even now in our generation and for all the future generations to come. To take them out from the very depths of the deepest descent and the darkness of the nethermost depths — and to elevate them higher and higher to the ultimate ascent. So that all will see, all will attain, all will recognize, all will know Hashem — and serve Him in unison. My heart and my flesh will sing to Hashem with brightness and great and immense joy — over the greatness of the wondrous kindnesses of Hashem and His wonders and the most awesome wonders of His salvation that He performed with me. That He gave me grace and true love and great mercy in his warm heart — to stand by me and to fight for me with self-sacrifice — a very strong and difficult battle — that I should have two holy sanctuaries — a place of holy sanctuary to engage in with holy service: Torah and prayer and hisbodidus and conversation between me and my Maker, etc. — and good deeds…

Certainly it is fitting for him to rejoice all his days — at every moment — when he recalls all the kindness that Hashem Yisburach performed with him through the Nachal Noavaya — who opened his eyes… The essential thing — one must greatly overcome oneself to draw joy upon oneself — to be joyful all his days. At every moment, etc., it is fitting for us to exult and rejoice in His kindness Yisburach. How great are the kindnesses of Hashem that He performed with us in these generations — through the Nachal Noavaya — who draws down such awesome repairs — to show and to heal all souls. Who labors at the repair of all of Israel — the souls of Israel.
