אָנֹכִי אֶשְׂמַח בַּייָ, יִתַּמּוּ חַטָּאִים מִן הָאָרֶץ (תהילים ק״ד:ל״ד-ל״ה)

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

“I will rejoice in God. Chata’ im (Sinners) will cease from the earth.” (Psalms 104:34-35)

הִנֵּה יָדוּעַ, כִּי כָּל הַחֶסְרוֹנוֹת שֶׁבָּאִים לָאָדָם, הֵן בָּאִין מֵחֲמַת הַשְּׁבִירָה, שֶׁנָּפְלוּ נִיצוֹצוֹת וְנֶחְסְרוּ מֵהַשְּׁכִינָה כַּיָּדוּעַ.

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

Behold, it is known that whatever lack a person experiences stems from the Shattering [of the Vessels], on account of which the sparks [of holiness] fell and were subtracted from the Divine Presence.

וְהַתִּקּוּן הוּא עַל יְדֵי שֶׁמְּשַׂמֵּחַ אֶת עַצְמוֹ בֶּאֱלֹקָיו, אֲזַי נִשְׁלְמוּ כָּל הַחֶסְרוֹנוֹת מֵהַשְּׁבִירָה, וְנִתְעַלֶּה כָּל הַנִּיצוֹצוֹת.

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

A person can rectify this by rejoicing in his God. Then, all that was lacking due to the Shattering is made whole and all the sparks ascend.

וְזֶה: אָנֹכִי אֶשְׂמַח בַּה',

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

This is: I will rejoice in God—[By rejoicing in God,]

יִתַּמּוּ וְנִשְׁלְמוּ כָּל הַחֲטָאִים – הַיְנוּ הַחֶסְרוֹנוֹת, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (מלכים־א א): וְהָיִיתִי אֲנִי וּבְנִי שְׁלֹמֹה חַטָּאִים.

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

**Chata’im will cease—**that is, all lack will be made whole, as it is written (1 Kings 1:21), “my son Shlomo and I will be [deemed] chata’im.”

מִן הָאָרֶץ – הַיְנוּ אֶרֶץ הָעֶלְיוֹנָה, בְּחִינַת הַשְּׁכִינָה:

Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012

**from the earth—**This alludes to the exalted “earth,” the Divine Presence.
