וְֽ֭חֹטְאִי חֹמֵ֣ס נַפְשׁ֑וֹ כָּל־מְ֝שַׂנְאַ֗י אָ֣הֲבוּ מָֽוֶת׃ (פ)
און דער װאָס פֿאַרפֿעלט מיך, באַרױבט זיך אַלײן, אַלע װאָס האָבן מיך פֿײַנט האָבן ליב דעם טױט.
Duties of the Heart
Nevertheless, if one strives always to reach the degree of love of G-d motivated by hope for benefit or fear of punishment in this world and in the next world, which is in the ability of most human beings to attain, the Creator will strengthen and help him, on the genuine love, which springs from reverence of the greatness and exaltedness of the Creator, which is beyond the ability of flesh, as the verse says: "I will cause love to those that love Me; And those that seek Me diligently shall find Me" (Mishlei 8:17), and "But he who sins against Me harms his soul; [all who hate me, love death]" (Mishlei 8:36).
