Chasidut su Salmi 18:7
בַּצַּר־לִ֤י ׀ אֶֽקְרָ֣א יְהוָה֮ וְאֶל־אֱלֹהַ֪י אֲשַׁ֫וֵּ֥עַ יִשְׁמַ֣ע מֵהֵיכָל֣וֹ קוֹלִ֑י וְ֝שַׁוְעָתִ֗י לְפָנָ֤יו ׀ תָּב֬וֹא בְאָזְנָֽיו׃
Nella mia angoscia invocai l'Eterno e gridai al mio Dio; dal suo tempio ha sentito la mia voce e il mio grido è venuto davanti a lui alle sue orecchie.

"God heard my voice from God's temple" (Psalms 18:7) - The word 'temple', heichal, applies to Speech. You need to pray only in order to bring the divine quality of Speech before the Holy One. When you pray in this way, all the guards leave you alone. For example, if a simple villager carries the king's signet ring, even if he is usually unworthy of coming before the king, all the royal guards leave him alone, since the king longs for this ring. Instead, they rush him towards the king, so that the king has pleasure sooner. So too, the Holy One longs for Speech, and this then is the meaning of "God heard my voice from God's temple-" because of the longing for Speech.
