⁹⁷ O how I love Thy torah! It is my meditation kol hayom.

⁹⁸ Thou through Thy mitzvot hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

⁹⁹ I have more understanding than every melamed of mine: for Thy edot are my meditation.

¹⁰⁰ I understand more than the zekenim, for I keep Thy pikkudim.

¹⁰¹ I have refrained my feet from every orakh rah, in order that I might be shomer over Thy Devar.

¹⁰² I have not departed from Thy mishpatim: for Thou hast taught me.

¹⁰³ How sweet are Thy words unto my palate! Sweeter than devash to my mouth!

¹⁰⁴ Through Thy pikkudim I get understanding: therefore I hate every orakh sheker. Nun

¹⁸ And say thou unto the people, Set yourselves apart as kodesh against tomorrow, and ye shall eat basar; for ye have wept in the ears of Hashem, saying, Who shall give us basar to eat? For it was well with us in Mitzrayim; therefore Hashem will give you basar, and ye shall eat.

¹⁹ Lo (not) ye shall eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;

²⁰ But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you; because that meastem (ye have rejected) Hashem Who is among you, and have wept before Him, saying, Why came we forth out of Mitzrayim?

²¹ And Moshe said, The people, among whom I am, are 600,000 men on foot; and Thou hast said, I will give them basar, that they may eat a whole month.

²² Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? Or shall all the dag (fish) of the yam be gathered together for them, to suffice them?

²³ And Hashem said unto Moshe, Is the Yad Hashem cut short (i.e., limited in power)? Thou shalt see now whether My Devar shall come to pass unto thee or not.

³¹ And there went forth a wind from Hashem, it drove in quail from the yam, brought them down over the machaneh at a height of two cubits from the ground for the distance of a day’s journey all around the machaneh.

³² And the people stood up all that yom, and kol halailah, and all the next day, and they gathered in the quail; he that gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all out for themselves round about the machaneh.

18 At that time, the talmidim approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach with this she’elah saying, Who then is greatest in the Malchut HaShomayim?

² And having called a yeled to himself, he set him before them,

³ and said, Omein, I say to you, unless you change inwardly and have a complete turn around and become like yeladim, you shall never enter the Malchut HaShomayim.

⁴ Therefore, whoever humbles himself as this yeled, he is the greatest in the Malchut HaShomayim.

⁵ And whoever receives one such yeled in my Name receives me [Moshiach].
