אֲנִ֥י יְשֵׁנָ֖ה וְלִבִּ֣י עֵ֑ר ק֣וֹל ׀ דּוֹדִ֣י דוֹפֵ֗ק פִּתְחִי־לִ֞י אֲחֹתִ֤י רַעְיָתִי֙ יוֹנָתִ֣י תַמָּתִ֔י שֶׁרֹּאשִׁי֙ נִמְלָא־טָ֔ל קְוֻּצּוֹתַ֖י רְסִ֥יסֵי לָֽיְלָה׃
Aku tertidur, tetapi hatiku terjaga. Dengarlah, kekasihku mengetuk: “Bukakanlah bagiku, saudariku, kasihku, merpatiku, yang tak bercela, sebab kepalaku penuh embun, ikal rambutku basah oleh rintik-rintik malam.”
Zohar
GIVE EAR, YE HEAVENS, AND I WILL SPEAK, ETC. R. Judah cited here the verse: “I opened to my beloved, but my beloved had withdrawn himself and was gone”, etc. (S.S. 5, 6). ‘And just before this it is written, “I was asleep but my heart waked” (Ibid. 2). Said the Community of Israel: I was asleep to the precepts of the Law when I went in the wilderness, but my heart was awake to enter the land so as to perform them, since they all are meant for the land. “It is the voice of my beloved that knocketh”: this is Moses, who administered many reproofs answer Amen departs from this world, his soul ascends and they proclaim before him: Open the gates before him1v. T. B. Shabbath, 119b. as he opened gates every day by being careful to answer Amen. But if one hears a blessing from the reader and is not careful to answer Amen, what is his punishment? As he did not open blessings below, so they do not open for him above, and when he leaves this world they proclaim before him: Close the gates in the face of So-and-so that he enter not, and do not receive him woe to him and to his soul!
Zohar
Yet withal he spoke only in love for Israel, as it says, “Ye are a holy people”, etc. (Ibid. 7, 6).
Zohar
Six thousand years are hanging on the original six, the seventh above them, which only itself has been strengthened. And all will be destroyed in twelve hours, as is written: "was waste (תהו) and empty (בהו) etc." [Bereshit 1:2]. He will posit for them thirteen with mercy [probably referring to the 13 attributes of mercy], and they are renewed in their original state, and all these six stand. Because it is written "created", and afterwards is written "was", because it "was" for sure. And in the end "waste and empty, and darkness" [Bereshit 1:2], "And only HaShem will be exalted on that day" [Isaiah 2:11].
