Nascimento de bebê
Cada bebê que nasce é uma dádiva de Deus. A Bíblia celebra o nascimento como obra das mãos do Criador, que forma cada criança no ventre com amor e propósito.
Formados por Deus
Deus tece cada bebê no ventre materno. Antes mesmo de nascer, somos conhecidos e amados pelo Criador de todas as coisas.
For Thou hast possessed my inmost being;
Thou didst interweave me in the beten immi.
I will praise Thee;
for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
marvellous are Thy ma’asim; and that my nefesh knoweth very well.
My atzamim (bones, frame) were not hid from Thee,
when I was made beseter (in secret),
and skillfully wrought in the depths of the Eretz.
Thine eyes did see my golem (embryo),
yet being unformed;
and in Thy Sefer (Book) all the yamim (days) ordained for me were written down,
when as yet there were none of them.
Before I formed thee in the beten
I knew thee;
and before thou camest forth out of the rechem
I set thee apart as kodesh,
and I ordained thee a navi unto the Goyim.
He trusted in Hashem;
let Hashem rescue him; let Him deliver him, since He delights in him.
As thou knowest not what is the derech haruach, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the ma’asei HaElohim who maketh all.
Shall I bring to the moment of birth,
and not cause to bring delivery? saith Hashem.
Shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb?
saith thy G-d.
Bênção e presente
Os filhos são herança do Senhor. Cada bebê é uma boa dádiva que vem do alto, do Pai das luzes, motivo de alegria e gratidão.
Hinei, banim are nachalat Hashem;
and the p’ri habeten is a zachar (reward).
Every good endowment and every matanah shleimah (complete gift) is from above, coming down from Avi HaOhrot (the Father of Lights) with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
For this child I davened; and Hashem hath given me my petition which I asked of Him;
The isha (woman) when she gives birth, has agmat nefesh (grief), because the sha’ah (hour, time) of her has come. But when she gives birth to the yeled, she no longer has zikaron of the Tribulation because of the naches that an ish was born into the Olam Hazeh.
Acolher as crianças
Jesus acolheu as crianças e as abençoou. O Senhor ama cada pequenino e reserva para eles o Reino dos céus.
But he said, Permit the yeladim to come to me, and forbid them not, for of such is the Malchut HaShomayim.
And having taken the yeladim into his arms, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach laid his hands on them and made a bracha over them.
