מענטשקינד לאָז װיסן ירשלים ירע ומערדיקייטן אַ סָוף איז געקומען, געקומען דער סָוף, ער האָט זיך דערװעקט אױף דיר ;אָט קומט עס ער האָט זיך דערװעקט אױף דיר ;אָט קומט עס אַ שױדערניש קומט און זײ װעלן זוכן שלום און עס װעט ניט זײַן האָט ער צו מיר געזאָגט: ?האָסטו געזען, מענטשנדיקנד װעסט נאָך װײַטער זען גרעסערע אומװערדיקײטן װי די דאָזיקע. Turn toward Jerusalem And prophesy against her Doom is coming The hour of doom is coming It stirs against you and it comes It stirs against you and it comes Horror comes and they shall seek safety but there shall be none I was told, "Have you seen, O mortal? you shall see even more terrible abominations than these

Deveikus 06:12
על־ידי הכסופין אלו נעשה נפש קדושה It is through yearning that their holy soul is formed

ברוך אתה ה׳ אלהינוּ מלך העולם אשר במאמרו ברא שחקים, וברוח פיו כל צבאם חק וזמן נתן להם שלא ישנו את תפקידם ששים ושְמחים לעשות רצון קונם פועל אמת, שפעלתו אמת וללבנה אמר שתתחדשׁ עטרת תפארת לעמוסי בטן שהם עתידים להתחדש כמותה ולפאר ליוצרם על שם כבוד מלכותו׃ ברוך אתה ה׳ מחדש חדשים׃ May it be Your will Hashem, my God and my ancestors’ God, to fulfill the blemish of the “white one” and may there be no diminishing at all in her; and may the light of the white one be like the light of the hot one and like the light of the seven days of beginning creation, like it was before she was diminished, as it says “And God formed the two great lights.”

Kainahora 06:24
הורני יהוה דרכך ונחני בארח מישור למען שוררי בן פרת יוסף בן פרת עלי־עין בנות צעדה עלי־שור Teach me, O Yah Your ways, and lead me in a straight path for the sake of [the undoing of] those who eye me [for evil]. Yosef is a fruitful bough A fruitful bough by a spring Its branches run over a wall

על־ידי שקמים בחצות [לילה] ומתאבלין על חרבן בית המקדש על־ידי זה נצולין משְרפות The merit of rising for the midnight prayer protects us from destruction by fire

about

Many speak of Kabbalah, yet few are rooted in its history, its ancient traditions. Without knowing this history, the many repeat the claims of Christians and occultists who kept and misinterpreted the teachings of Kabbalah but rejected all the Jews who created it. The Kabbalist remedies this. It is a psychedelic, furious, and mysterious fever dream of black metal and the mysteries of Kabbalah. From prophesies of doom to the feverous visions of Yehezkel, play these songs to assist in warding off the evil eye, yearning for the divine, and the seeking the depths of the forests, The Kabbalist embraces our ancient traditions. Each song is a ritual to assist your descent into sacred mysteries. Allow yourself to fall into their invocations.
