thyself that thou art alive, God is in the room."

- Epictetus

"The act of praying is the very highest energy of what the human
mind is capable."

0 Lord, keep me sensitive to the grace that is around me. May the
familiar not be neglected. May I see thy goodness in my daily bread,
and may the comfort of my home take my thoughts to the mercy
seat of God.

"It is a great art to commune with God."

INTRODUCTION

It cannot be de n ied that true, wi se and enl ighte ned Kabal ists lived
at one ti me, and that some sti ll live . But such do not wander from place to
place, offering their art for sa le, in order that they may accumulate we al
th, but they a re satisfied to re main qu ietly in the pillared palace of
Solomon, whe re they a re constantly employed in gathering divi ne
wisdom, so that (as they express it), they may final ly be come worthy to re
ce ive the hidden gifts from above . I myself know such a man, who obtai
ned ex alted wisdom from the Kabala, and who, notwithstanding his
extreme pove rty, neve r unde rtakes a kabal i st ic process for money. When
I once asked him why he refu sed to write a de si red amulet for a noble lord,
he offered him a la rge sum for his se rvices, he answered me with an adage
from the we l l-known Pirke Awoth (Extract or Fragment from the Fathe r):
"Dei tschtammasch Be taggo Chalof," that is to say, "whosoe ve r accepts the
crown for his reward, will pe rish suddenly. Not for all the money in the world
wou ld I do such a thing. But if I can assist my needy ne ighbor therewith, then I
will do what I can, trusting in the_omnipote n ce of the Most Holy, without
looking for a reward. For my necessary support I do not fee l any concern, for the
Almighty has methods to support me if I trust in Him. Why, he even cares for the
sparrow."

It is Particularly re markable that the greatest and most ge nui ne


Kaba lists of the Jewish nation were ne arly all foll owe rs and discip les of
the blessed Saviour of the world, and they a re so sti ll, as I can prove
satisfactorily, by nu me rous passages from their writings and prayers. Le t
this suffice for this one kind of me n. But that Kabal ists live and still live ,
who engage in ex pe ri me nts, and who pe rformed wonde rful works, and
who will ye t do wonderful things, is als o an u nde niable fact, u nle ss we a
re pre pared to condemn all that was ever said u pon this su bje ct by re
nowned me n of wisdom.

The ce le brated and we ll-known Prussian Hussar, Lord of Arche nwood


de cla res, in a de scription of London, that there li ves a man in that city,
whose name is Doctor Falcon, who is known to be a great Kabalist, and who
is visited and consul ted by the most honorable and in tell i gent people of
Lon don. He state s fu rther, that this same D r. Falcon, l ived not very long s i n
ce in Brussels unde r the na me of Ju de Chaylim, Schmul Ful k, who
according to the eviden ce of the F rench Du ke of Nancy, in his published
me mo irs of kabal is tic processes, pe rformed the most astonishing feats.

I confi dently hope and trust, and I can assert without he sitation, that
my little book cannot have a te n den cy to foster su perstition. Take it for
granted that one of my re ade rs shou ld choose to employ one of the
methods de scribed in the se pages in order to ad:ompl ish a de si red
object, his eage r ness to satisfy curiosity wil l soon disappear when he takes
into consideration the hard te rms and strict morali ty which a re requi red
to avail him self to them in orde r to de rive any be nefit or be suc cessful
in the ir u se.

Be fore concluding my p reface, it is necessary to gi ve the re ader


some instruction concerning the arrange men t of this volu me. We find in

4
it, for instance, single words, na mes, se nten ces, and indeed enti re ex
periments,

4
printed in the He brew and Chal dean languages. Th is fact sh ou ld not pre vent
any one from purchasing the book. Be cause all the word s pri nted in Hebre w
and Chalda ie, wh ich are inte nded to be im pre ssed upon the mind, are also
printed in Engli sh in plain terms, and they have bee n carefully transl ated. So
far as the He brew passages are concerned, the me aning of each passage and ex
periment foll ows immediately in Engl ish, or it is placed be neath the He brew ex
pression. I have made th is arran ge ment in compliance wi th a re quest from a
num ber of prom i nent persons, to ma ke s ure th at the transl ation is ge nui ne
and correct. The chapter and verse s of Holy Scripture, where all
passages quote d may bf!Jou nd, are also correctly re corde d.

F O R E WORD

Extract from the preface of the Kabalistic Publisher

It is universal ly known and acknowledged, th at we are named after the


most holy name of the Ru ler of the World and th at we re ce ive the holy
de calogue or the written law from hi m. It is further we ll known th at in addi
tion to the laws wh ich he gave to Moses en graved upon stone, he also gave
to him certain verbal laws, by wh ich, through his protracted stay upon the
mountain Si nai, where all Doctrines, ex planations of mysterie s, holy
names of G od and the angels, and particul arly how to apply th is
knowledge to the best in terest of man, were entrusted to hi m. All the se
doctri nes whi ch God Jjronounced good, but wh i ch were not generally made
known, and wh i ch in the course of time were called the Kabala, or Traditions,
Moses communi cated, during his life, to J osh ua, his successor. Josh ua
handed the m over to the elders, the el ders gave them to the judges, and
from the m to the me n of the gre at synagogue, and the se gave them unto the
wise me n, and so the Kabal a was h anded down from one to the other-
from m ou th to mouth- to the pre sent day: There fore do we know th at in
the Thora are many names of the Most H igh and his angel s, besi de s dee p
mysterie s, wh i ch may be applied to the we lfare of man, but wh ich, on
account of the perverse ness of human ity and to guard against the ir abuse,
have bee n hidden from the gre at mass of human be ings.

E veryth ing th at I have here stated is as c le ar as the sun and nee ds no


f urther proof. and it is equally c le ar and incontroverti ble th at Al l-merciful
gave the Thora in the be ginning to promote man at the sa me time. There fore
has G od endowed the be st in tere sts of the sou l and the body of her with
exal ted tale nts, powers and vrrtues th at, with a rational use of her, man
may prote ct him self from danger whe n no other he lp is at hand and save
him self simply by uttering the words of the Living God. On th is account,
the ex pre s sion, " For it is thy li fe," occurs freque ntly in the Thora. And
Solomon says in his Proverbs, vi 22: "When thou goest it sh all lead thee ,
and whe n thou sleepest it sh al l kee p thee." That the Psalms and the Thora
are equal in hol iness and worth i ness, wil l not be called in q uestion . Our
wise me n de cl are , " He who wil l daily live cl oser to God, who de serve s to
uni te hi s soul with Him, and who is wil l ing to live in the closest commun
ication with him, sh ould often pray the Psalms, with fervor and devotion.
Happy is the man wh o does th is daily and hourly, forhis reward wi ll be gre
at." The Psalms are formed and

5
divided into fi ve books, just li ke the Thora. We can, therefore, impl icitly
trust in the doctrines of the enl ighte ned Kabalists, when they assert that
the A l mighty accorded equal talents and powers to the Psalms as he did to
the Thora, and that in them many names of the Most H igh Majesty of God
and his angel s, be si des, many mysteries, a re hidde n.

Yet, de ar re ader, you must not doubt. Through a pious life and by a
rational use of the Psalms you may obtain the grace of G od, the favor of princes
and magistrates and the love of your fel low-me n. You will be enabled to
promote your own welfare.

That this is aft true, the contents of the prayer, with which we end each
Psalm, and which we a re in duty bound to pray, will amply de monstrate.
But the correctness of it is also establis hed by the te achings of the Talmud
and of the old wise me n, who assure us, that many of our famous
forefathers avai led them selves of apparently su pernatural me ans from ti
me to ti me, to protect the ir be st in te rests . T he truth of this I can
establish by the most trustworthy witne sses; ye a, I cou ld e ven me ntion
some great me n, who by a proper u se of the Psalms, pe rformed great works.
Such examples a re rare. let it suffice. I pre sent you with a few passages out
of standard books, through which you w ill be come fully convin ced that
the Almighty has given his revea led word true and u nexam pled tale nts
and powe r, and that, in an extre me case of necessi ty, we a re pe rmitte d to
ma ke u se of this gift of God, for our own and our ne ighbor's welfa re. As
for example, to cast out evil spirits; to rel ieve deep me lancholy and to cu re
grievous di sease; to set f ree prisoners who have bee n imprisoned; to arre st
and re sist e nem ies, opponents, mu rde re rs and highway robbe rs: to q uen
ch the fiercest fi res; to re sist floods of water, to defend innoce n ce and to
re veal it; and to foster good fortu ne, we ll-bei ng and pe ace in a gene ral
m an ne r.

Read the treatise on this s u bject, of the excelle nt Rabbi S c.h i


nmschon bar Abraham, in his book ent itle d, " Responsiones Raschaba."
Exami ne the words of the enl ighte ned Rabbi Jochanan be n Sackas in this
T reati se of the Talmud and Sen hedrin, Chap. 2, where he treats of magical
conju rations, and where he asse rts and proves, that it is al lowed, in dan
ge rous and incurable di seases, to ma ke use of words and passages in the
Holy Scripture for the ir cure. You wi ll find more or less simi lar re fe re nces
in the treatise of Sabbath in the Talmud, as well as in the Re sponsonibus,
by Ze mach, son of Simonis, in which the Ninety-se cond Psalm, with ce
rtain prescriptions added, a re highly re commended as a certain Jleans to
avoid suffering and danger, even in case of war, fi re and si m i l ar instances,
enabling us to escape unharmed, f ree , se cure and without hindrance.

U nder such happy circumstan ces, it is su rely right and proper, that
such wholesome knowledge, which up to this day was known but to a few
me n, and then only the learned, was yet f ree to all , but found only in the
libraries and cabinets of the great, although not ge ne rally known, shou ld
at least, in some degree, be brought to light.

Since, howeve r, I cannot gain my obje ct in any other way than giving the
se pages to the world in a printed form, and sin ce they will unavoidably

6
fall into unc lean hands, I fee l mysel f constrai ned, in order to preve nt an
unworthy use of them, to extend this preface, which might othe rwi se, ve ry
properly have en ded he re, in laying down a few rules and limits. Do not,
howeve r, be discouraged for I am re ally endeavoring to promote your be st in te
rests and sh iel d you from harm.

1. If you a re wil li ng to avail you rse lf of the me ans indicated, I want


you to attempt it in a case of ex treme necessity, and whe n the re is no other
he lp at hand. �/

2. If this be so, in ex peri menti ng, pla ce your trust in the goodness
and powe r of the Most High and e ver b les sed God, u pon whom you may
pe rhaps have hitherto called unde r an unknown holy name.

3. T he ordai ned Psalm, for this or the othe r un de rtaki ng, besi des
the appropriate prayer, you must pray with a broke n, contrite heart to God,
and in addition to this kee p in mind the added holy na me with its lette rs,
which a re given the wi se Kabalists. At the sa me ti me you must have your
unde rt ak ing continually before your eyes.

4. I must say to you, if you wish to console you rse lf with this he l p,
that you must live in such a man ner that no crime or wi ll fu l sin can
trouble your conscien ce, for it is we ll known, that the prayer of the ungodly
is not acce pt able to God. And herewith I commit you to the protection of the
Most Hig h .
SECRETS OF THE PSALMS

USE OF THE PSALMS

Those who be l ieve in the efficacy of prayer and a re cital of the Psalms
while burning in cen se , using Sanctuary Oi l or Holy Oil, may if they wish re ad
and apply the followi ng.

ADMONITION OF THE TRANSLATOR

Before I proceed further with the translation of the Psalms, it is neces sary
to in sert in this pl ace an admonition, which the author, who wrote only for his
own nation, dee med un ne cessary, and which, neverthe less, should be addres
sed to e ve ry one .

"Each h uih an be ing," says the cele brated Kabalist, Rabbi Isaac
Loriga, "ex ce pt only the ignorant idolater, can by a pious and virtuous li fe
en ter into the consecrated te m ple of the true Kabala, and can avail him
self of its be ne fits without be ing able to s peak or understand the Hebrew
Language. He can pray, re ad and write everything in his mother tongue;
only the holy na me of God and the ange ls that may occur in the ex
periment, must, under all circum stances, be written and re tained in the
mind in the Hebrew tongue (for they must in no case be uttered), be cause,
on the contrary, a wrong di rection might othe rwi se easily be given to the ex
pe ri men t, and conseq ue ntly it wou ld lose all its holines s, work and
efficie ncy."

With this pronunciation we must al l be wel l satisfied, and, therefore, I


must write all si mi lar words and names, f rom lette rs of which the holy
names a re take n, in Hebrew. In order, howeve r, that the re ader may re ad
all similar occurring na mes and words in his mind and reta in them, I have
writte n all the Hebrew words with English lette rs together with their mean
ing.

PSALM FOR WOMAN WHO IS PREGNANT

PSALM FOR DANGEROUS CON FINEMENT

PSALM 1 . - When a woma n is pregnant and fe ars a premature de live ry, or


a dange rous confi ne me nt, she shou ld write or cause to be writte n on a
piece of parchme nt pre pared from the pure s kin of a dee r, the three first ve
rses of the above Psalm, together with the hidde n holy na me and
appropriate prayer contai ned he rein, and place it in a small bag made ex
pressly for that purpose, and suspend it by a string about the ne ck, so that
the bag will re st against he r body.

The holy na me is called Ee l Chad, which signifies, great, strong, only


G od, and is take n from the four foll owing words: Aschre, ve rse 1; Lo, ve
rse 4; Ja tz liach, ve rse 3;1Ve de rec h, ve rse 6.

9
The praye r is as fol lows:

May it please thee, 0, Ee l Chad, to grant unto this woman, N.,


daughter of R ., that she may not at this ti me, or at any othe r ti me, have a
premature conf ine me nt; much more grant u nto her a truly fortu nate de l ive
ry, and kee p he r and the fruit of he r body in good he alth. Amen! Se lah!

PSALM FOR DANGER AT SEA OR STORM

PSALM 2. - Shou ld you be ex posed to danger in a storm at se a, and your


li fe threate ned, then re ci te this Psalm without de lay and with becom ing
reve r en ce, and think re s pectfully of the holiest name contai ned the rein,
na mely
Scaddei (which me ans, mighty God), then im med iately utter the praye r
be longing thereto, ane r which write everything togethe r on a fragment of a
pot,
and in fu ll confiden ce in the Omnipotent, who f ixe s the boundary of the se
a and re strains its powe r, throw it into the foaming waves, and you wi ll see
marvelous wonders, for the waves wi ll instantly cease their roaring and the
storm will be lul led.

The words, the le tte rs of which constitute this holy name, a re take n from
Rageschu, ve rse 1; Nosseu, ve rse 2; and J oses, ve rse 9.

The praye r is as follows: " Let it be , Oh, Schadei! (Almighty G od!)


Thy holy will , that the raging of the storm and the roaring of the waves may
cease, and that the proud bil lows may be the place of our de sti nation in
safety and in good time sti l led. Le ad us, Oh, all merciful Father, to he alth,
for only with Thee is powe r and might. Thou alone canst he l p, thus Thou
wilt su rely he lp to the honor and glory of Thy name. A men! Se lah!

This Psalm is also an effectual re medy against a raging headache. The di


rection is as fol lows: Write the first eight ve rses of this Psalm together with the
holy name and appropriate prayer, upon pu re parchment, and hang it upon the
neck of the patient; the n pray ove r him the Psalm with the prayer arranged for
it. Do this in humble devotion, and the suffe rer will be re l ie ved.

PSALM FOR SEVERE HEADACHE OR BAC KACHE

PSALM 3. - Whosoe ve r is subject to seve re he adache and backache, let


him pray this Psal m, with the lead ing holy names and appropri ate prayer
con tained the rein, ove r a small quantity of ol ive oil, anoint the head or
back w hi le in the act of praye r. This w i l l afford i mmed iate re l ief. The holy
name i s, Adon (Lord), and is found in the words, Weatta, ve rse 3; Baadi,
verse 3; He ki zoti, ve rse 5; and Hasc heini, ve rse 7. T he prayer is as fol
lows: Adon (Lord) of the world may it please thee to be my physician and he
l per. Heal me and re l ie ve me from my seve re he adache and backache,
be cause I can find he lp only with T hee, ana onl y with T hee is coun sel
and action to be found. Amen! - Sela h- Se lah!

PSALM FOR LUCK

PSALM 4.- I f you have bee n unlucky hithe rto, in spite of every effort, then
10
you shou ld pray this Psalm three times be fore the rising of the Sun, with

10
hum il i ty and devotion, while at the same time you shou ld i mpress upon your
mind its ru ling holy name, and each time the app rop riate p rayer, trusting in th
e help of the mighty lord, without whose will not the least cr eature can
perish. Proceed in person to extricate your contemp lated undertak ing, and all
things will resu lt to your entire sat isfaction.

The holy na me is cal led: J iheje, (He is and wil l be), and is composed
of the four letters of the words. Tepp il lanti, verse 2; Selahfi, verse 5;
Jehovah, ver se 5; and Toschiwen i, verse 9; the p ray er is as foll ows: May
it please Thee, oh J iheje, to p rosper my ways, steps, and doings. G rant
that my desire may be amp ly ful fi l led, and let my wishes be satisfied even
th is day, for the sake of Thy great, mighty and p raiseworthy name. Amen!
- Selah!

If you wish to accomplish an undertak-i-ng by or through another, pro ceed


in all things as already stated above, with this exception: you must change the
prayer as fol lows: let me find gr ace, favor and mercy in the ey es of N., son of
R., so that he may gr ant my petition, etc.

Again, if you have a cause to bring before high magistrates or princes, you
must pray this Psalm and the closing prayer arr anged for it, seven times in
succession before the rising of the sun.

BY THE TRANSLATOR

I mu st be p er m i tted in thi s p lace to insert another caution . When it i s


N . , son or daug hter of N., it must be understood that we must fi rst
mention the name of the person by whom we wish to be served, and
afterward the name of his mother, as, for examp le, Isaac, son of Sarah, or
Dinah, daughter of leah.

PSALM FOR COURT CASES

PSALM 5. - I f you have business to transact with your magistrates or with your
pr inces, and desire to obtain their sp ecial favor, then pray this Psalm early at
the rising of the sun and in the evening at sunset. Do this three times over pu re
ol ive oil, while at the same time you think unceasingly, upon the holy name of
Chananjah (merciful God), anoint your face, hands and feet with the oil and say:
Be merciful unto me, for the sake of Thy great, adorable and holy name.
Chananjah, turn the heart of my prince to me, and gr ant that he may regard me
with grace. Amen! - Selah !-

The holy name is fou nd i n the words; Ch ap ez, verse 5; Nec hi n i , verse
9; Nechona, ver se 10; H adi chemo, verse 1 2; and K az i nna, verse 1 4.

Still another pecu liarity of this Psalm is, when you find notwithstanding the
utmost industry and case, your business does not prosper, and you have reason
to fear that an evi l star, sp irit or destiny is opp osing you, then pr ay this Psalm
daily, even to the last verse with great devoutness, and you will soon
·

find yourself in more favourable c ircumstances.


PSALM TO HEAL DISEASE OF THE EYE

PSALM 6. - With this Psalm all diseases of the eye may be healed. Read
the Psalm for three days successively, and pray the prescribed prayer
seven t imes slowly in a low tone, and with devotion, and with this keep
continually in your mind the holy name of Jaschajah (which means help is
with the Lord);
bel i eve w it hout a doubt th at t he Lord can and w i l l h elp you . The prayer is as
follows: Jehovah, my Father, may it please Thee, for the sake of the great,
mighty, holy and adorable name, J eschajah Baal H ats chna, th at is, Help
is with t he Lord (for he is t he Lord of help, he can help), which name is
con tained in this Psalm, heal me from my diseases, infirm ities, and from
pa in of my eyes, for thine is t he power and the help, and thou alone a rt
mighty enough to help; of this I am certain, and t herefore I t ru st in thee.
Amen! S e lah !-

Fu rther it is said: If a traveler encounters danger by land or sea, he


shall, when there is no ot her help to hope for, pray this Psalm seven
times, and each time, with fu ll confidence, in the mighty and su re help of
the Alm ighty, and add thereto: J eschajan, Lord of help! m�y it be thy holy
will and pleasure to assist me in this ext rem ity and to avert this danger
from me. Hear me for t he sake of t hy great and most holy name, for thine ·

is the power and the help.


Amen! - Selah! -

The five letters of thi s holy name contain, according to the prayer the
words; Jehovah al, verse 2; Schuba, verse 6; Oschescha, verse 8; Bewoshn
and Vej ibbahaln, verse 1 1 .

PSALM FOR CROSSED CONDITION AND TO OVERCOME


ENEMIES PLOTTING AGAINST YOU

PSALM 7. - When evi l persons conspire to render you unfortun ate, if your
enemies watch for an opportun ity to overthrow you, if they pursue you in
order to harm you, t hen upon t he spot pray thi s Psa lm and keep in your
mind the holy name of Eel El ijon, great, strong, highest God! then throw
the dust in the direct ion of your enemies, uttering a prayer prescribed for
this case, and you wi ll find that your enem ies wil l cease their persecut
ions and leave you undi stu rbed. The l etters of the holy name are fou nd
in the words: Aisher, verse 1 , Ode, verse 1 8, (according to the order of AI,
bam, and t he letters verse 7; J adin, verse 9; Jashuf, \terse 1 3; E l ijon,
verse 18).

The prayer is as follows: Oh, Eel Slijon! great, st rong, and highest
God! may it please thee to change the hearts of my enem ies and
opposers, that they may do me good in stead of evil, as thou did st in the
days of Abraham when he cal led upon Thee by thi s holy name. (Gen. xiv.
22.) Amen! - Selah! -

If you have incurred the ill-w ill of an enemy, whose cunn ing power
and vengeance you have reason to fear, you should fil l a pot with fresh
water, and pronounce over it t he twelve last verses of this Psalm, namely

12
the words: "Arise, Jehovah! in thy wrath!" Pronounce these four times, and
at the same time thin k of the holy name of Eel E lijon, and of your enemy,
and pray each time. "H umble and overth row, O h! Eel Elijon, mine enemy,
N., son of R., th at

13
he may not have the power to provoke or to injure me." Amen! After this prayer,
pour the water upon a spot at your enemy's residen ce, or at a place where he
mu st pass over it, and by doing this you will overcome him.

pu rposes intended.

the author exhorts all to engage in prayer to God, without pescribing any

if these are wanting it was so ordered by the ancient Kabal ists, and on this

Psalm with the word Dam connected with it in the mind, three times a day,
namely, early at noon and in the even ing over poppy-o il, and at the same
time utter a prayer su itable to the occasion in which the evil deed must be
mentioned in deep humility and sorrow, which must be obtained from the
just yet merciful J udge of all men through a contrite heart, then let him
anoint himself with the consecrated oi l over the body, and he wi ll find in a
few days that he has found grace and that the heavy burden has been

of this Psalm, Eeni, and in the word lmmenu, verse 2, and indeed according to

Vav, which, in cou nting also numbers six.

PSALM 86 to 88. - These three Psalms again are left without a holy name,
and there is nothing further said about them, than that a person shou ld
accustom himself to pray them often, because by so doing much good can
be done and much ev i l avoided . The f requent prayi ng, of the 85th Psa l m
espec i a l ly, i s said to promote the welfare of the community and the

the evil spirit by which he is tormented, for the sake of thy great, mighty and
holy name El Schaddei. Wilt thou presently send him health and let him be
perfectly restored. Hear his prayer as thou once did that of thy servant Moses
when he prayed this Psa lm. let his prayer penetrate to thee as once the holy
incense arose to thee on high. Amen. Selah!

The two letters of the name, Eel are contained in the words J eschuti, verse
16, and Orech, verse 1 6.

Again write this Psalm in connection with the last verse of the previous
Psalm upon clean parchment, and conceal it behind the door of you r
house, and you wil l be secure from all evil accidents.

Kabal ists ascribe to this Psalm when taken in connection with the above
verse, the most wonderful virtue, when it is used in accordance with the nature of
ex isting ci�cumstances, and when it is combined with other scriptural passages,
holy names of angels, characters and prayers, it is said, for example:

Prayer through which all distress, danger and suffering may be turned aside.
If any one should be in danger of his life, or become distressed, be it what it
may, such as being attacked by an incurable disease, pesti lence, fire or water,
overwhelmed by enemies or murderers, in battles, sieges, robberies, close
imprisonment, etc., let him confess his sins first of all, and then speak the Vi hi
Nasmprayer (the name by which the 91 st Psalm with the aforesaid verse is
usually known), ninety-nine times, according to the number of the two hol iest
names of G od, Jehovah Adonei. Each time when he comes to the fourteenth
verse, "Because he hath set his love upon me," etc., he shall keep in mind the
holy name, and then pray devoutly each time: "Thou art the most holy, king over
all that is revealed and hidden, exalted above all that is high, sanctify and glorify
thy adorable name in this thy world, so that all the na tions of the earth may
know that thine is the glory and the power, and that thou hast secured me from
all distress, but especially out of painful emer gency (here the object of the
prayer must be distinctly stated), which has overtaken N., son of R. And I
herewith prom ise and vow that I will now and ever after this, as long as I shall
live upon the earth, and until I return to the dust from which I was taken." (Here
the vow must be verba lly stated,
stating what we wil l do, perform or give in the service of our C reator. The
vow may consist in fasting, giving alms, or in the daily reading of several
chapters of the Holy Scriptures. Psa lms, of the Sohar or of the Talmud,
releasing of captives. nursing the sick and burying the dead.) "Praised be
Jehovah, my Rock and my Sa lvation . Thou w i lt be my representative and
intercessor, a nd wilt help me, for thou helpest thy poor, feeble and humble
creature, and in time of need releasest from fear and danger, and dealest
mercifu lly with thy people; merc iful and forgiving, thou hearest the prayer
of every one. Praised art thou, Jehova h, thou who hearest my prayer." (The
last words should be repeated seven times at each ending of the prayer.)
And now, whoever will. punctually observe the foregoing instructions three
days in succession, in full trust in the mighty help of G od, he may rest assured
of the assistance which he desires.

Kabal ists, and especially the celebrated Rabbi I saac Loria have as su red
us that in a time of pesti lence or general emergency, the Vihi Noam prayer shou
ld be prayed seven times da ily connecting with it in the mind the figure of the
golden candlestick, when it is composed of forty-one holy and important words
and names of this Psalm with which we should especially consider the holy names
in their order. The following are the names.

Vean lmi l i r,
Mii, lets. l bak.
Aab. Veal, Beni,
Aan, Betu, Jaub,
lma, Mili, Wich,
Beoba. Aki., llu,
Aim, Miz, Uma,
Tmol, Vetat, Rul,
Tetak, Pesch, Kuck
lakad. l ba, Atcham,
Schin, Ktaz. Raasch,
Mehoh, Ana.
(See Figure A - page
32)

After this should be spoken verses, 21 -26, chapter xii, of Exodus, and with
them keeping in mind the names conta ined in the 23rd and 26th verses. in the
fol lowing order:

Awa l, Jahel, Ito, luj, Husch, Aha, lmo, Vii.

As also Vohu, Uha, Bam. Bili. Zel, Holo, Vesop, and finally the holy name:
Nischasz les.

And now. he who observes all these things to the very letter, and who can
keep in his memory all the letters, poi nts or vowels, he shall be safe from all
danger, shall be as strong as steel, so that, no firearms can harm him. The
certainty of this is shown by the Kabal ists, because the letter Seijid is not to be
found in the entire Psalm, and since the word Seij in or Kie Seijin embraces within
its meaning all deadly weapons, this conclusion is entirely correct.
REMARkS BY THE TRANSLATOR

The extraord inary powers ascribed to the 91 st Psalm may all be right and
proper enough, but it is to be regretted that the reader cannot avail himself of its
benefits, espeCially in the last experiment, because all the recorded holy names
consist of the first letter of all the words of the 91 st Psalm, and like wise of the
23rd and 28th verses of Exodus, chapter xii, a passage which has al ready been
quoted. It is, therefore, impossible to pronou nce this name, properly, neither can
it be translated into E nglish or into any other language. And how shall we then
memorize the first letters of each word of the Psalms together with the points or
vowels belonging to them? If any one, notwith standing the difficu lties attending
the use of this Psalm, should desire to avail himself of its virtues, then he must
undertake the burdensome task of learning the Hebrew language, or he must
write it, and wear it upon his heart as an amu let.

PSALM 92. - He who desires to attain to high honors ; let him take with
this object in view, a new pot fil led with water. Place in it myrtle and vine
leaves, and pronounce over it, with perfect trust. the following Psa lms,
namely, 92, 94, 23, 20. 24, and 1 00, three times in succession, and at
each time let him wash himself out of the pot and afterward anoint his
face and whole body with the water; then turn his face toward the north,
pray to God for the ful fi llme nt of his desi res, and he wi ll see wonderful
things. He wi ll be as ton ished with his ever-increasing good fortu ne. He
will also. in a wonderful manner, advance f rom one post of honor to
another.

PSALM 93. - There is nothing special recorded of this Psalm, other than
that it is highly recommended to any one who has a suit with a stern and
unjust opponent. The proper use of this Psalm. it is said, will surely win
cause.

PSALM 94. - I f you have a hard, unyield ing and bitter enemy, who
oppresses you sorely and causes you great anxiety, repair to an open field
on Monday, take some incense, into you r mouth, turn with your face
toward the East and West, and repeat first the 94th Psalm and then the
92nd, seven times keeping in mind at the same time the holy name Eel
Kanno Taf, which signifies great, strong, zealous and good God, and
pray each time at the ending of these
Psalms: "May it please Thee, 0 great, strong, zealous and good God, to
humble my enemy N., son of R., as thou once did the enemies of our great
teacher Moses, who rests in peace, and who completed this Psalm to thy
glorification. let my prayer arise to thee as did the sweet smell of incense from
the altar of incense, and let me behold thy wonderful power. Amen! Selah!

cause his family great joy and contentment.

PSALM 98.- The holy name of this Psalm is also Jah, and should be pro nounced

name are taken out of the words: Israel, verse 3; and Haschiah, verse 1.

PSALM 99. - With this Psalm there is no holy name recorded, and all who wish

are re corded in verse 3, and in Aetodah, verse 4.

PSALM 1 01.- Whoever bears this Psalm in addition to the 68th u pon his person,
written upon parchment, is secure from the persecution of evil spirits and

PSALMS 1 02 and 103. - Both these Psalms are said to be very good for
barren women by the use of which they may receive grace and favor from G
od. The holy name of the one is cal led )ah, and is taken from Anneni,
verse 3, and the name of the other is Aha, and is taken from the word
Adonai, verse 1 2, and from Sela, verse 20.

33
PSALM 1 04. - The frequent and .earnest prayer of this Psalm is said to be
attended with such great power, that through it the Masick may be de stroyed.

REMARKS OF THE TRANSLATOR

The work Masick signifies, according to its poet, only something hurtful,
something that will cause harm, it may be by spirits, beings or animals. Gen
erally, however, the J ews understood the term to mean the Devil, and with its
connections in this place the word must mean original sin and the propensity to
commit sin.

PSALMS 105 to 107. - To these three Psalms the holy nam e of J ah is


ascribed, and according to the original writi ng, it is said, that the 105th
Psalm will cure three days' fever; and fi nally the praying of the 107th wil l
cure the daily fever.

The letters of the holy names are taken from Lejaikof, verse 7, and
H odu, verse 1, and further from Sochren i, verse 4, and from Tehil lato,
verse 2 of the 1 06th Psa lm and fi nally from J ischlach, verse 1 9, and
Verinna, verse 21 .

PSALM 1 08. - Write this Psalm with its proper holy name, Vi, (two letters from
the most holy name of Jehovah, in which Kabbal ists seek through its many
divisions, great secrets), upon clean parchment, and hide it in a secure spot
behind the door of your house, and then your going and com ing will be blessed,
and you will be successful in all your business transactions.

The two letters of the holy name J ehovah, by a transposition of Vav,


and J od, are contained in the words: Zarenn, verse 14, and in Nachon,
verse 2.

PSALM 1 09. - Have you a mighty enemy, who plagues and oppresses you,
fill a new jug with new, sparkling wine, add some mustard to it, and then
repeat this Psalm three days successively, while at the same time you keep
in mind the holy name of Eel (great and strong G od), and afterward pour
the mixture before the door of you r enemy's dwel ling. Be careful,
however, that you do not sprinkle a single drop upon yourself when in the
act of pouring it out.

The letters of the name Eel are found in the words, Elhoim, verse 3, and in
Ki Jamood, verse 5.

PSALM 110 and 11 1 . - The first of these Psa lms is marked with the holy
name Jah, and by its frequent use in the form of a prayer, and a man may
compel all enem ies and opposers to bow to him and beg for quarter and
peace.

Throughout praying the 111th Psalm a man may acqu ire many friends
without the necessity of keeping constantly in mind any special holy name.

PSALM 112 and 113.- By praying the first of these Psalms a man will increase in
might and power from time to time, and by praying the second devoutly it is
possible to check growing heresy and infidel ity. Neither of these Psalms has a
pecu liar holy name.

PSALM 114.- The Holy name of this Psalm consists of two letters, taken together
from the names Adonai (Lord), and Jehovah, namely Aha, which
may be found in this Psalm in the words J iszraoel, verse 1, and Jehuda, verse

appropriate holy name upon cle an parchment, and carry it about your per son
constantly in a small bag prepared espec ially for this purpose.

PSALM 117.- Did you make a vow to obtain a certain commandment or perform a

to si lence all free-thinkers, scoffers of re ligion and heretics, who labor to

PSALM 119.- This it is well known is the largest of all the Psalms, and con sists in
the Hebrew of eight alphabets, but in such a manner, that each letter appears in
undisturbed regularity, and through this there arose twenty-two spec ial
divisions, which are included in each eight verses, because a particu lar power is
ascribed to each division, which I cannot present to the reader in clearer manner
than by placing each letter before him which forms the par ticu lar division.

ALE PH .- The eight verses of this letter, which all begin with Aleph, should
be pronounced over a man whose limbs shake and quiver, and if this be done in
a low and even voice, he will be rel ieved. If any one has made a vow, which has
become bu rdensome to fulfill, it will be easy for him to keep his prom ise.

B ETH .-It is said that through the second division from the ninth ·to the
sixteenth verse, a man may obtain a good memory, an open heart, desi rous to
learn, and an extended intelli gence. Whosoever desi res to attain th is must
begi n as follows: Remove from a hard-boiled egg the shel l deftly and cleanly,
so that the inside shal l remain uninju red, and pray over it the above eight
verses as well as the fourth verse, of Deutoronomy, xxxi ii, and eight verses of
joshua, i, and also the holy name of the angels Chosniel, Schrewniel and
Mupiel. The translation of these th ree angel-names it is not necessary to
know because they must not be pronounced, but since it wi ll be of interest to
the reader to know the meaning of them, it wi ll not be superfluous to give
them here. Chosniel, signi fies Cover, or overshadow me, mighty God!
(namely, with the spirit of wisdom and knowledge.) Schrewniel, turn me,
again, mighty God! that is, change me, convert me in to a better man or
woman, as David once said: "Create in me, oh God (namely, let me attend
upon the decrees of thy laws, as if I heard and received them from the mouth
of God himself.) Finally the following must also be prayed over the egg: Open
and enlarge my heart and understand ing, that I may hear and comprehend
everyth ing that I read, and that I may never forget it.

35
All th is must be done on a Thursday evening, after fasting the enti re day, and
then the egg must be inserted whole into the mouth, and when it is eaten, the
four firs! verses of this division must be repeated th ree times in succession.

CIMEL. - The division of the third letter, verses 17 to 24 shou ld be


prayed seven times in succession, in a low, solemn tone and with full confi dence
in the omn ipotence of Cod, over the seriously injured eye of a friend, so that the
pain may cease and the eye restored.

D A L E T H . - By the earnest praying of this division, verses 25 to 32, a


painful injury of the left eye can be cured in the first place, in the same
manner as is described above, and in the second place, if a man is engaged
in a lawsu it, or is vexed by a change of occupation, or residence, or if he
desires to make an advantageous selection, or make resolution, he shou ld
repeat these eight times in succession. On the other hand, however, if a
man must avail himself of the advice and assistance of many persons in
order to accom plish an undertaking successful ly, he should repeat this
division ten times.

He. - The division of the letter H e, verses 33 to 40, is said to make


peo ple refrain from committing sins. A sinful being who has become so
much accustomed to commit sin and vice, that he cannot refrain from
them, notwithstanding his best resolutions shou ld write these eight
verses upon parchment prepared from a clean deer skin, (or cause them
thus to be writ ten.) place it in a bag prepared for this pu rpose and hang it
around his neck, so that he wi ll carry it continually upon his breast.

VAU.- Speak these eight verses, 41 to 48, properly over water, and
give it to your servant or dependent to drink, and then your ru le and
power over him will become easy and agreeable, and he wi l l serve you
will ingly.

ZA I N . - To the seventh division, verses 49 to 56, two different effects


are ascribed. It is said, for example: If one of your friends or acquai
ntances is afflicted with melancholy, or becomes splenetic, or has severe
stitching in the side, write this division, with the holy name Raphael,
which signifies, heal mighty Cod, properly upon a small piece of clean
parchment, and bind it u pon the patient where the spleen i s si tuated .

If you have been led into an undertaking that prom ises evil results,
through the misrepresentations of evil cou nsellors, repeat this division eighteen
times, and you will find means to withdraw from the undertaking without inju ry
to yourself.

CH ETH .- Speak the division of this letter, verses 57 to 64, seven


times over wine, and give a sick person, who has severe pains in the upper
part of his body, to drink of it, and he wil l soon find re lief.

TETH.- The division of the letter Teth, verses 65 to 72, is an easy, qu ick
and tried remedy to cure the severest case of kidney or liver complaints, or to
take away pain in the hips. Pronounce these eight verses properly, specially and
reverently over the sick person and he will conva lesce.
JOD. - Wou ld you find grace and favor with God, and man, pray at
the close of each morn ing prayer the division of this letter, verses 70 and
80, trusting fully in the mercy and grace of God, and your prayer wil l be
heard.
CAPH. - I f one of yours ha s a dangerous sore, or a burning swell ing
on the right side of the nose, pray the eight verses of this division verses 81
to 88, ten times, in a low and conjuring voice, over the sore, and you wi ll
perceive to your aston ishment and joy, that the otherwise incurable sore
will be healed.

LAME D. - I f you are summoned to appear personally before the


judge in a lawsuit, pray on the preceding day, just after the evening prayer,
the division of the letter lamed, verses 89 to 96, and you wi ll obta in a
favorable hearing, and wil l be permitted to leave the court justified.

MEM. - For pa in in the limbs, and especially for paralysis in the


right arm or hand, a man should pray this division, verses 97 to 1 04, seven
times for three successive days, in a low conjuring voice, over the affected
arm, and the pain wi ll cease and the arm wil l be healed.

NUN.- Have you a mind to travel, pray this division, verses 105 to 112,
which begins with the words: "For thy word is a lamp to my feet," a few days
previous to starting upon your journey, each time after the morning and even ing
prayer, and you wi ll accomplish your journey safely and will prosper in your
avocation.

SAMECH.- If you have a favor to ask of a superior, pray, before pre senting
you r petition, or before you attempt to ask the favor verbally, the eight verses
of the letter Samech, verses 113 to 1 20, and you will not go away unheard.

A I N . - I n the same way and manner as the prayer of the division of


the letter Mem, heals pain in the right arm, so also, the praying of the eight
verses of the letter Ain, verses 1 21 to 128, wi ll cure pain, in the left arm
and hand.

PE. - The prayer of this division, verses 1 29 to 1 36, will prove of


the same effect in the case of a boi l or swell ing on the left side of the nose,
·

and
the proceeding in both cases must be the same to effect a cure.

T S A D D I . - Since it frequently happens that persons in an official sta


tion are induced, thru misrepresentations and other circumstances, to give
a wrong and unjust dec ision, even against their better knowledge and
desire, they are kindly advised to pray thee eight verses of this letter,
verses 1 37 to 1 44, three times devoutly before giving their decision, at the
same time ask ing the help of the judge of all judges, to enl ighten their
minds.

KOPH .- The mysterious operation of this division, verses 145 to 1


52, relates to the cure of a dangerous and pa inful injury at the left leg.
These eight verses shou ld be pronounced in a low and conjuring voice over
a quan tity of rose-oil and the injury anointed with the oil.

37
RESH.- Are your bu rdened with a painful, constantly running boil in the
right ear, pronounce the eight verses of the division of the letter Resh, verses 1
52-1 60, in a low and conjuring voice, over onion-water or juice, and

38
let one drop run into the ear, when you will experience immediate relief.

SCH I N . -Against severe and burning headache speak the division of


this letter, verses 1 61 to 1 68, in a low conjuring voice three times over
pure olive oil, and anoint the place where the pain is the most severe.

TAU. - The last division of this Psalm, verses 1 69-1 76, shou ld be used in
the s a m e m a nner as t h e d iv is ion o f the letter Resh, that i s , it shou ld b e
spoken over onion-water, and by its use a boil in the left ear may be cu red. .

Final ly, it is stated at the end of this Psalm; that whosoever is afflicted with
a tearing pain in both arms, in the sides, and in the legs at one and the same
time, shou ld repeat this whole Psalm in the following order: 1. The eight verses
of the letter Aleph, of Tau and Beth. 2. Those of the letter Schin. 3. The division of
the letter Gimmel. 4. The eight verses of the letter Resh. 5. The division of the
letter Da leth. 6. That of the letter Kuf. 7. The eight verses of the letter He. 8.
Those of the letter Zain. 9. The division of the letter Van. 10. The eight verses of
the letter Pe. 11. The division of the letter Zain. 12. The division of the letter Ain. 1
3. The eight verses of the letter Cheth. 14. Those of the letter Tamech. 15 . Those
of the letter Tetch. 16. Of Nun. 17. The eight verses of the letter J ud, and final ly,
18. The division ofthe letters, Mem, Caph, and lamed. This remedy has been tried,
and has proved infall ible. Should any one become afflicted with tearing pains in
the loins, make for him, at the conclusion of this Psa lm, knots, combinations, or
magical knots in water, with or under the names of: Adam, Seth, Enoch, Canaan,
Maba l leel, Jared, Methusa leh, lamech, Ntah, Shem.

(The translator is compel led to admit honestly, that he does not compre
hend this latter clause, and much less is he able to give any directions in regard
to the method employed in making magical-knots, he does not pre sume that any
one will be interested in this matter.)

PSALM 1 20. - I f you must appear before the judge, repeat the Psa lm
before hand, and you wi l l receive grace and favor.

If a traveler shou ld find himself in a forest infested with many po


isonous snakes, scorpions and other poisonous repti les as may easily

The meaning of this book in Hebrew means praises or
songs of praise.

These Psalms were gathered over a long period of time


starting from the days of Moses and extending to the
Postexilic time of the Second Temple.

It is reasonable to associate the early collections of the


Psalms with David, King of Israel. David enjoyed the
singing of songs du ring worship.

In future times other kings such as Hezekiah, Asa,


Jo siah and Solomon continued the use of the Psalms
during their reign as kings. The reading of these
Psalms have become very popular among people of
all ages.
