מִ֭בְּכִי נְהָר֣וֹת חִבֵּ֑שׁ וְ֝תַעֲלֻמָ֗הּ יֹ֣צִא אֽוֹר׃ (פ)
Pinigil Niya ang mga ilog upang hindi umagos, at ang nakatagong bagay ay inilabas Niya sa liwanag.

As such, if one wishes to innovate novelties of Torah that are substantive, one must cry beforehand; for when said rivers are formed and all come to drink from them, then will the husks and the Sitra Ahara (the Other Side, or realm of evil) come as well, God forbid, to drink also from there. Therefore, one ought to cry beforehand, and consequently make rivers from crying, in the behina of: “He dams up the sources (or ‘the crying’) of the streams” (Job 28:11); that by means of crying one rectifies the rivers, from which all of the husks and the Sitra Ahara can drink that which is needed for their satisfaction. Accordingly, when one makes rivers out of Torah novelties that are innovated in the wake of [the rectification via crying], one can then draw down/extend them just to the appropriate places, so that “strangers” (that which is foreign/alien, viz. the husks and the Sitra Ahara) shall not drink from them.
