הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ ׀ הַ֭לְלוּ עַבְדֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה הַֽ֝לְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁ֥ם יְהוָֽה׃
Purihin ang Walang-Hanggan! Magpuri kayo, mga lingkod ng Walang-Hanggan, purihin ninyo ang pangalan ng Walang-Hanggan.
Zohar
When the time of each was arrived, the Holy One summoned it, saying: “Go, descend into such and such a place, into such and such a body.” But ofttimes it chanced that the soul would reply, “Lord of the world, I am satisfied to be here in this world, and desire not to leave it for some other place where I shall be enslaved and become soiled.” Then would the Holy One respond: “From the very day of thy creation thou hast had no other destiny than to go into that world.” At this the soul, seeing that it must obey, would descend against its will and enter into this world.
