Kabbalah Maleakhi 2:3: Sha'arei Kedusha

הִנְנִ֨י גֹעֵ֤ר לָכֶם֙ אֶת־הַזֶּ֔רַע וְזֵרִ֤יתִי פֶ֙רֶשׁ֙ עַל־פְּנֵיכֶ֔ם פֶּ֖רֶשׁ חַגֵּיכֶ֑ם וְנָשָׂ֥א אֶתְכֶ֖ם אֵלָֽיו׃

Sesungguhnya, karena kamu Aku akan menghardik benih, dan Aku akan menaburkan kotoran ke atas wajahmu, kotoran korban-korban hari rayamu, dan kamu akan terbawa kepadanya.

Sha'arei Kedusha

In Zohar Terumah it states,496Zohar II 141a “The spirit of impurity has no dominion over the bodies of the righteous Tzaddikim who, in this world, were not drawn after the pleasures and lusts of that extraneous husk (Kelipah). For, they have not pleasured themselves in this world at all, except for fulfilling the mitzvah of pleasure on Shabbat and Biblical Festivals. The spirit of impurity thus has no dominion or hold on them at all, since they have not derived any pleasure whatsoever from that which is the opposite Holiness (Sitra Achara). However, about a person who did derive pleasure from the opposite the Holiness (Sitra Achara) during the mundane days of the week, the verse states,497Malachi 2:3 ‘I will smear dung upon your faces, the dung of your festive offerings, and you shall be carried out to its heap.’”
