כְּס֤וּס עָגוּר֙ כֵּ֣ן אֲצַפְצֵ֔ף אֶהְגֶּ֖ה כַּיּוֹנָ֑ה דַּלּ֤וּ עֵינַי֙ לַמָּר֔וֹם אֲדֹנָ֖י עָֽשְׁקָה־לִּ֥י עָרְבֵֽנִי׃
我像鶴、像燕子那樣啁啾鳴叫,又像鴿子哀聲低鳴;我的眼睛仰望高處。主啊,求你把我奪救出來,為我作保!
Kav HaYashar
In the meantime Rabbi Yitzchak awoke. He was smiling and his countenance was shining. Rabbi Shimon noticed and looked into Rabbi Yitzchak’s face. He asked, “Have you heard anything new?” He said to him, “Most certainly,” and he related to him all that he had seen. Then Rabbi Yitzchak prostrated himself before Rabbi Shimon and refused to leave him, but toiled continually in Torah. From that day forward Rabbi Shimon never separated from Rabbi Yitzchak. When Rabbi Yitzchak would enter Rabbi Shimon’s presence he would call out, “Hashem, steal me away and be my guarantor!” (Yeshayahu 38:14). [This was the prayer of King Chizkiyahu at the time of his illness, but Rabbi Yitzchak said it as an expression of praise and thanks to the Holy One Blessed is He, who stole him away from the Angel of Death and delivered him.]
