1. With the beginning of the manifestation of the King's will, THAT IS, WHEN THE KING DESIRED TO EMANATE AND CREATE THE WORLD, a hard spark made an engraving upon the supernal light. IT emanated from the most concealed of all concealed things - from the secret of the Endlessness Light - took a shapeless form. THE SPARK was then inserted into THE CENTER OF a circle that was neither white nor black nor red nor green, nor any color at all. When it began its measurements, it created colors that shone into THE EMPTY SPACE AND THE ENGRAVING. From within the HARD spark a fountain spouted, from which the shades down below received their colors.
1. בְּרֵישׁ הוּרְמְנוּתָא דְמַלְכָּא, גָּלִיף גְּלוּפֵי בִּטְהִירוּ עִלָּאָה בּוּצִינָא דְּקַרְדִינוּתָא, וְנָפֵיק גּוֹ סְתִים דִּסְתִימוּ מֵרָזָ"א דְּאֵי"ן סוֹ"ף, קוּטְרָא בְּגוּלְמָא נָעִיץ בְּעִזְקָא לָא חִוָּור וְלָא אוּכָם וְלָא סוּמָק וְלָא יָרוֹק, וְלָא גֹּוָון כְּלָל. כַּד מָדֵיד מְשִׁיחָא, עָבֵיד גֹּוָונִין לְאַנְהָרָא לְגוֹ. בְּגוֹ בּוֹצִינָא, נָפֵיק חַד נְבִיעוּ, דְּמִנֵּיהּ אִצְטַבְּעוּ גֹּוָונִין לְתַתָּא.
2. From the most concealed of all concealed things, from the secret of the Endlessness Light, EMANATED TWO FACES: ONE cleaved and THE OTHER did not cleave. Its atmosphere was unknown until forceful blows split ATIK, and a concealed supernal point shone. Beyond this point, nothing is knowable and, because of this, it is called by the name Beginning, WHICH MEANS the first of the sayings.
2. סְתִים גּוֹ סְתִימִין מֵרָזָא דְּאֵי"ן סוֹ"ף, בָּקַע וְלָא בָּקַע, אֲוִירָא דִּילֵיהּ לָא אִתְיְידַע כְּלָל. עַד דְּמִגּוֹ דְּחִיקוּ דִּבְקִיעוּתֵיהּ, נָהֵיר נְקוּדָה חָדָא סְתִימָא עִלָּאָה, בָּתַר הַהִיא נְקוּדָה לָא אִתְיְידַע כְּלָל, וּבְגִין כָּךְ אִקְרֵי רֵאשִׁית, מַאֲמַר קַדְמָאָה דְּכֹלָּא.
29. Until now, everything was suspended in the air that was bestowed from the secret of the Endlessness Light. As soon as the force expanded inside the supernal chamber, which is the secret of Elohim, the word 'saying' is applied to it, as it is written: "And Elohim said." Before that, the word "said" is not written, because "said" means it is in detail. Although the word, "In the beginning" is also a saying, WHICH COMPLETES THE NUMBER OF THE SAYINGS IN THE CREATION TO TEN, "And Elohim said" is not written in it, AS IT IS DESCRIBED IN A GENERAL MANNER. THE USE OF THE WORD "SAID" MEANS A DETAILED DESCRIPTION. THEREFORE, THE VERSE, "AND ELOHIM SAID, 'LET THERE BE LIGHT'" IS THE FIRST OF THE DETAILS OF THE CREATION OF THE WORLD.
29. עַד הָכָא הֲוָה כֹּלָּא תַּלְיָיא בַּאֲוִירָא מֵרָזָא דְאֵין סוֹף, כֵּיוָן דְּאִתְפְּשַׁט חֵילָא בְּהֵיכָלָא עִלָּאָה רָזָא דֵּאלֹהִים, כְּתִיב בֵּיהּ אֲמִירָה, וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים. דְּהָא לְעֵילָא לָא כְתִיב בֵּיהּ אֲמִירָה בִּפְרָט, וְאַף עַל גָּב דִּבְרֵאשִׁית מַאֲמָר הוּא, אֲבָל לָא כְתִיב בֵּיהּ וַיֹּאמֶר.
134. The concealed living creatures are hidden beneath the upper concealed letters, Yud-Hei OF THE NAME YUD HEI VAV HEI, which govern Vav-Hei OF THE NAME YUD HEI VAV HEI. The ones are a Chariot for the others; THAT IS, THE LETTERS VAV-HEI ARE A CHARIOT FOR THE LETTERS YUD-HEI. THIS MEANS THAT THEY REVEAL THEIR ILLUMINATION AS A RIDER IS SEEN IN HIS CHARIOT. AS A RESULT, BY REVEALING THEIR ILLUMINATION, THE LOWER LIVING CREATURES ARE A CHARIOT FOR THE UPPER LIVING CREATURES. And that which is most concealed, which is completely unknown, IS THE SECRET OF THE ENDLESSNESS LIGHT, WHICH IS HINTED AT BY THE TIP OF THE LETTER YUD OF THE NAME YUD HEI VAV HEI. It controls everything and rides upon them all, WHICH MEANS THAT ALL THE GRADES MANIFEST ITS DOMINION OVER THE WORLDS. The living creatures, which are revealed, are down below the upper and concealed living creatures. Their illumination comes from them, and they travel according to them. IN OTHER WORDS, THE LOWER LIVING CREATURES HAVE NO MOTIVATION OF THEIR OWN, EXCEPT FOR WHAT THEY RECEIVE FROM THE UPPER LIVING CREATURES.
134. חַיּוֹת דְּמִטַּמְרָן, אִנוּן תְּחוֹת תְּרֵין אַתְוָון עִלָּאִין דְּאִתְכַּסְיָין, י"ה, אַתְוָון שַׁלִּיטִין עַל ו"ה, אִלֵּין רְתִיכָא לְאִלֵּין, וְהַהוּא טְמִירָא לְכָל טְמִירִין דְּלָא אִתְיְיַדע כְּלָל, שַׁלִּיט עַל כֹּלָּא, וְרָכֵיב עַל כֹּלָּא, חַיּוֹת דְּאִתְגַּלְּיָין אִנוּן לְתַתָּא, תְּחוֹת אִלֵּין עִלָּאִין דְּמִטַּמְרָן, וְאִתְנַהֲרָן מִנַּיְיהוּ, וְנָטְלִין בְּגִינַיְיהוּ.
