English (translated)

It was taught;

Rabbi Yishmael the son of Elisha said: «I once entered into the

inner most, to offer incense, and I saw Akatrie-l K-ah (a name referring to

the crown of God), the Lord of Hosts, seated upon a high and exalted throne,

He said to me, 'Yishmael my son, bless Me!'

I said, 'May it be Your will that

that Your mercy suppresses Your anger, and that Your mercy prevail over Your

other attributes, and that You deal with Your children with the attribute of

mercy, and that You deal with them beyond the letter of the law.

' And He nodded to me with His head.
