למנצח על ידותון. אך אל אלקים דומיה נפשי. זה שאמר הכתוב (ישעיה כו ד) בטחו בה' עדי עד. אמר הקב"ה הוו יודעים במי אתם בוטחים במי שברא שני עולמים בשתי אותיות. שנאמר (שם) ביה ה' צור עולמים. העולם הזה והעולם הבא. העולם הזה נברא בה"א. וכן הוא אומר (בראשית ב ד) אלה תולדות השמים והארץ בהבראם. בה"א בראם. והעולם הבא נברא ביו"ד. לפיכך כי ביה ה' צור עולמים. ולמה נברא העולם הזה בה"א. מה ה"א כשאדם מוציאה מתוך פיו אין בה לא ריחוש שפתים ולא חריצת לשון. כך בלא עמל ובלא יגיעה ברא הקב"ה את עולמו. שנאמר (תהלים לג ו) בדבר ה' שמים נעשו. (ישעיה כו ה) כי השח יושבי מרום. ואחר כך תרמסנה רגל. ואחר כך (מיכה ד יג) קומי ודושי בת ציון. כך אמר הקב"ה לישראל גואל אני אתכם אלא שתטרחו. ועל מה אני מטריח אתכם על ידותון. על הדתות ועל הדיינין שאני עושה לכם. לכך נאמר על ידותון:
For the conductor, on the hands of the dove. Yet my soul is silent only to G-d. This is what the scripture says (Isaiah 26:4), "Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD himself, is the Rock eternal." The Holy One, blessed be He, says, "Do you know in whom you trust? You trust in the One who created two worlds with two letters, as it says (Psalms 89:27), 'The G-d who is the Rock of Israel said, "I will be their Father."' And it says (Isaiah 43:10), 'Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me.'" This world was created with the letter "Heh." As it says (Genesis 2:4), "These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, on the day that the LORD G-d made earth and heaven." It says "Heh" - "they were created." And the World to Come was created with the letter "Yud." Therefore, it says, "The LORD is the Rock eternal," meaning, the world was created with His name. And why was this world created with the letter "Heh"? Just as when a person speaks the letter "Heh," there is no sensation of the lips or effort of the tongue, so too did the Holy One, blessed be He, create His world effortlessly and without toil, as it says (Psalms 33:6), "By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth." And it says (Isaiah 57:15), "For this is what the high and exalted One says-- he who lives forever, whose name is holy: 'I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.'" And afterwards, it says (Isaiah 26:5), "He will humble the haughty and bring down the exalted city; he will level it to the ground and destroy it completely." And afterwards (Micah 4:13), "Rise and thresh, Daughter Zion, for I will give you horns of iron; I will give you hooves of bronze, and you will break to pieces many nations." Thus said the Holy One, blessed be He, to Israel, "I am your Redeemer, but you must work. And what do I make you work on? On the laws and the courts that I have given you." Therefore, it says, "On the hands of the dove."
