טוֹב־וְיָשָׁ֥ר יְהוָ֑ה עַל־כֵּ֤ן יוֹרֶ֖ה חַטָּאִ֣ים בַּדָּֽרֶךְ׃
Mabuti at matuwid ang Walang-Hanggan; kaya't itinuturo Niya sa mga makasalanan ang daan.
Sha'arei Orah
Know and be faithful that HaShem’s-יהו"ה quality as the Righteous One-Tzaddik-צדיק always stands ready to fulfill the desire of every supplicant and have mercy upon him, if his intention is to correct his ways for goodness. About such a person the verse states,61Psalms 154:9 “HaShem-יהו"ה is good to all and His mercies are upon all His works.” With this quality HaShem-יהו"ה guides sinners in the way of repentance. About this the verse states,62Psalms 25:8 “HaShem-יהו"ה is good and upright, He therefore guides sinners on the way.” This means that He brings troubles, plagues, and sicknesses upon people, all for their benefit, so that they will return in repentance to Him. We thus find that all these troubles and plagues are completely good, being that they cause a person to return in repentance to HaShem-יהו"ה, so that he can merit the upper goodness and the life of the coming world. This is the meaning of the verse, “HaShem-יהו"ה is good and upright, He therefore guides sinners on the way.”
