גַּ֣ם אָנֹכִ֗י חָלִ֤ילָה לִּי֙ מֵחֲטֹ֣א לַֽיהוָ֔ה מֵחֲדֹ֖ל לְהִתְפַּלֵּ֣ל בַּעַדְכֶ֑ם וְהוֹרֵיתִ֣י אֶתְכֶ֔ם בְּדֶ֥רֶךְ הַטּוֹבָ֖ה וְהַיְשָׁרָֽה׃
Auch ich, fern sei mir zu sündigen gegen den Herrn, aufzuhören für euch zu beten; ich will euch vielmehr belehren über den rechten und guten Weg.
Berakhot
Rabbah b. Hinnana the Elder also said in the name of Rab : Whoever has it in his power to pray" on behalf of his neighbour and fails to do so is called a sinner ; as it is said, "Moreover as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you" (I Sam. xii. 23).
