Ah! se tivesses dado ouvidos aos meus mandamentos! então seria a tua paz como um rio, e a tua justiça como as ondas do mar;

R. Jose b. Hannina answered : He is worthy of the following blessings ; as it is said,] "Oh that thou wouldst hearken to My commandments! Then would thy peace be as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea ; thy seed also would be as the sand, and the offspring of thy body like the grains thereof ; his name would not be cut off nor destroyed from before Me" (Is. xlviii. 18 f.).
