ב. מִי שֶׁאֵין בְּמַעֲלוֹת הַצִּדְקוּת, וְגַם אֵין לוֹ זְכוּת אָבוֹת, וְרוֹצֶה לְקָרֵב אֶת בְנֵי־אָדָם לַעֲבוֹדַת הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ, יִשְׁמר אֶת עַצְמוֹ מִנִּסְיוֹנוֹת, וּבִפְרָט שֶׁלּא יִתְקַנְּאוּ בּוֹ הָרְשָׁעִים.

**The aleph bet book, translated by Moshe Mykoff. New York: Breslov Research Institute, 1986:**

ג. מִי שֶׁהוּא שׁוֹלֵט בְּיִצְרוֹ, בָּנָיו אֵינָם יוֹצְאִים לְתַרְבּוּת רָעָה, וְעַל־יְדֵי זֶה מָמוֹנוֹ נִתְבָּרֵךְ, וְעַל־יְדֵי זֶה לא יָבוֹא לִידֵי נִסָּיוֹן.

**The aleph bet book, translated by Moshe Mykoff. New York: Breslov Research Institute, 1986:**
When a person controls his evil inclination, his children do not follow evil ways. Because of this his money is plentiful, and consequently he will not come to be tested.
