פָּ֘דָ֤ה בְשָׁל֣וֹם נַ֭פְשִׁי מִקֲּרָב־לִ֑י כִּֽי־בְ֝רַבִּ֗ים הָי֥וּ עִמָּדִֽי׃
他救贖了我的性命,使我平安脫離向我襲來的爭戰;因為有許多人與我同在。
Chidushei Agadot
All those occupied with Torah and acts of kindness and who pray, etc. These three are the three pillars of the world, that we taught in a mishna "On three things the world stands: on the Torah, on the Service, and on acts of kindness" (Pirkei Avot 1:2). And this was at the time that the Temple stood, but now that the Temple is not standing, communal prayer is in the place of communal [sacrificial] service, i.e. the Tamid offerings which were brought every day. And the Holy Blessed One says, [this person has] redeemed Me and My children, etc. (Berachot 8a) -- for God's Presence is in exile, as it was written "I will be with him in distress" (Psalms 91:15). And also with all of the 30 "psalms of David" they said this pasuk, see there. God's Presence says, "He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle [קרב] against me" (Psalms 55:19), this is the language of those who are close [קרובים], that is to say my children.
