צריך לרחם על השכינה שמדבר דיבורים ופורט אותם מהשי"ת דהטבעיות כשמדבר שתפול עליו יראה דהא עולם הדיבור הוא עולם היראה אמנם כשמדבר באהבה ויראה תפול עליו יראה כשילך להלאה יבא להתלהבות גדול ע"כ:

The Way of The Baal Shem Tov. Adapted into English by Rabbi Amiram Markel and Yehudah Shimon Markel, 2020

Have compassion for the Divine Presence (Shechinah) and do not speak words that are disconnected from *HaShem,*blessed is He. The natural outcome of speaking in the presence of HaShemis that the fear of HaShemwill fall upon you, for the world of speech is the world of fear of HaShem. Thus, if you speak before Him with love and fear, you will be overcome by fear, but if you continue in this way, you will come to an arousal of great fervor (Hitlahavut) thereby.
