And Israel is saved by prayer... And Israel is saved by prayer on that day, and they pray and supplicate before Him, and they blow the shofar, and the Holy One, Blessed be He, has mercy on them and turns judgment into mercy. And all the superiors and inferiors open and say: "Blessed are the people who know the blast of the shofar." And therefore it is necessary on that day that the one who blows knows the beginning of the secret of things and concentrates on the blast, and does the thing with superior wisdom. And therefore it is written: "Blessed is the people who know the blast of the shofar," and it is not written "those who blow the blast of the shofar." And we have already learned: The explanation is that the simple blast indicates kindness, and the alarm blast indicates judgment, and the main intention must be on the alarm blast, which is judgment, to turn judgment into mercy.
