 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 are satisfied to re main qu ietly in the pillared palace of Solomon,
whe re they are 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 H im . 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 are 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 wonderful works, and who will
ye t do wonderful things, is also an u nde niable fact, u nless we are 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 states further, that this same Dr. Falcon, lived not very long sin 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 dency 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 will 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 ment of this volu me. We find in it, for
instance, single words, na mes, se nten ces, and indeed enti re ex

4
periments,

5
 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 Hebrew
and Chalda ie, wh ich are inte nded to be im pressed 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 request
from a num ber of prom i nent persons, to make 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 recorde d.

FOR 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 God and the angels, and particul arly how to apply th is knowledge to the
best in terest of man, were entrusted to him. 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
Kabala was handed 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 God endowed the be st in terests 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 himself 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 a ll kee p thee." That the Psalms and the
Thora are equal in hol iness and worth i ness, w ill not be called in q uestion .
Our wise me n de cl are, " He who wi ll daily live cl oser to God, who de serve s
to uni te hi s soul with Him, and who is will 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

6
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, are 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 God, 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 are 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; yea, 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 are rare. let it suffice.
I pre sent you with a few passages out of standard books, through which you
will 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 are 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 uench 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 man ner.

Read the treatise on this su bject, of the excelle nt Rabbi S c.hi nmschon
bar Abraham, in his book entitle 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 conjurations, 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 Zemach, son of Simonis, in
which the Ninety-se cond Psalm, with ce rtain prescriptions added, are highly
re commended as a certain Jleans to avoid suffering and danger, even in case
of war, fi re and s im ilar 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

7
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 are willin g 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 other 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 keep in mind the added holy na me with its lette rs, which
are 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 w illful 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 H ig 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 cense , 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
addressed to e ve ry one .

"E ach h uih an be ing," says the celebrated 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 himself 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 ment, and conseq ue ntly it wou
ld lose all its holiness, work and efficie ncy."

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

must write all s imilar words and names, f rom lette rs of which the holy names
are 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

God, and is take n from the four foll owing words: Aschre, ve rse 1; Lo, ve rse 4;
Jatz 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
confinement; much more grant unto her a truly fortunate de live 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 full 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 w ill see
marvelous wonders, for the waves w ill 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 God!) 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
while in the act of prayer. This w ill afford immed iate re l ief. The holy name i s,
Adon (Lord), and is found in the words, Weatta, ve rse 3; Baadi, verse 3; Heki
zoti, ve rse 5; and Hascheini, 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 on ly 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
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 will 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 fu lfil 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 must be p ermitted in this place to insert another caution . When it is N.,

son or daughter 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 found i n the words; Ch apez, verse 5; Nechini, verse 9;
Nechona, ver se 10; Hadichemo, verse 1 2; and Kazi nna, verse 14.

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);
believe without a doubt th at the Lord can and w ill help 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!
Selah!-

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 full 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 th is 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 this 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 th is Psa lm and keep in your mind
the holy name of Eel Elijon , great, strong, highest God! then throw the dust in
the direct ion of your enemies, uttering a prayer prescribed for this case, and
you will find that your enem ies will 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; El 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 th is 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 fill a pot with fresh water, and
pronounce over it t he twelve last verses of this Psalm, namely the words:
"Arise, Jehovah! in thy wrath!" Pronounce these four times, and at the same
time th ink 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

1
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 hi m.

If you have a case to decide before the court, and you have reasons to
fear an unfavorable or partial verdi ct, then pray this Psalm sl owly before you
appear in the presence of t he J udge, think ing at the same time of Eel Elijon
and of t he righteousness of your cause, and as you approach the judge pray
as fol lows: Oh, Eel Elijon ! turn thou t he heart of the judge to favor my best
i nterests and grant that I may be fully ju stified when I depart. G ive unto my
words power and strength and let me find favor. Amen! - Selah! -

PSALM TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN BUSINESS

PSALM 8. - I f you wish to secure the love and good will of all men in you r

cient for all pu rposes intended.

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

 PSALMS TO REVENGE YOURSELF AGAINST OPEN AND SECRET
ENEMIES

PSALM 53 to 55. - These three Psalms are ordained to be uttered by him who
is persecuted without cause by open and secret enem ies. If he desires only to

of the two blessed names of God, Adonai, Jehovah, and are found in the
words Amar. verse 2, and J i szmach, verse 6.

If, however, he wishes not only to be secure from their miracle, but if he
also desires to revenge himself upon them, then he must repeat the 54th
Psalm with the prescri bed holy name Jah. The·letters of this are found in the
last words of this Psalm, Eeni, and in the word lmmenu, verse 2, and indeed
according to the Kabal istic ru le Gematria, inasmuch as the letter He, when
it is written out signifies six in nu mber, and in this manner may easily be taken
for the letter Vav, which, in cou nting also numbers six.

Should he desire to render his enemies evil for evil, he shall repeat the
55th Psalm with the name Vah, which contains both of the final letters of the
name J ehovah. The letters of this name are found in the words: Wattah, verse

AND TO CONQUER ENEMIES

try, and by doing so, no one need feel afraid that he w ill be in duced to deny
his faith.

The frequent and earnest prayer of the 74th Psalm is said to defeat the
persecution embittered by enem ies, and will frustrate the oppressions of the

opponents.

The constant and industrious prayer of the 80th and 81 st Psalms is said
to be a happy mea � s of saving men from fall ing into unbel ief and saves them
also from other errors.

The prayer of the 82nd Psalm will assist an envoy to transact his business
toward the last word of this Psalm, and in Lelammed, verse 1 .

You shou ld write the 83rd Psalm properly, upon pure parchment, and
suspend it around your neck, and by so doing you w ill abide safely in war,

captors w ill not harm you, for even in captivity no harm can befall you .

PSALM 84. - When a man, through a severe and protracted illness has ac

and the bad smel l will leave him .

The letters of the holy n ame Af, are found in the words: Zebarth, verse 2,
and in Bach, verse 6.

PSALM 85 . - Do you wish that your former friend, but who now lives at
enmity with you, shou ld again be reconciled to you, if you can discover no
disposition on his part to make it up with you, then go out into an open field,
turn your face towards the South, and pronounce this Psalm, with its pre
scribed holy name Vah, seven times in succession, and he will approach and
receive you in great friendship.

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 evil avoided. The frequent praying, of the 85th Psalm especial ly, is said
to promote the welfare of the community and the congregation.

PSALM 89. - Should one of your own family or dear friends waste away so
rapidly, in consequence of a severe illness, so that they are al ready near
collapse, and useless, speak this Psalm over ol ive oil and pour the oil over the
wool that has been shorn from a wether or a ram, and with it anoint the body
and limbs of the patient, and he w ill speedily recover.

If your friend is under arrest, and you desi re his liberation, go into an
open field, raise your eyes toward heaven and repeat this Psalm, with a

2
prayer su ited to the circumstances, which shou ld be uttered in fu ll confi
dence in God.

PSAlM 90. - Should you accidentally encounter a lion in the forest, or

shou ld you be deceived, cheated or plagued by an evil spirit or ghost, then
grasp in your mind the name of God (Schaddei) and repeat this Psalm, and
they w ill withdraw themselves. But you will be still more secu re when such a
danger shou ld arise, if you pray the fol lowing 91 st Psalm in connection with
the 90th, at one and the same time.

PSAlM 91 . - The holy name of this Psalm is El, which means Strong God.
After speaking this Psalm, and the preceding one, over a person tormented by
an evil spirit, or one afflicted by an incurable disease, in the name of Eel
Schaddei, then pray humbly: let it be thy holy pleasu re, oh my God! to take
from N., son of R., 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 w ill 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 God, 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 w ill 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,

3
stating what we wi ll 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 wilt be my representative and intercessor, and
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 God, 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 lir,

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
fulfillme nt of his desi res, and he will see wonderful things. He will 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 him his
cause.
(Figure A.)

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!

PSALM 95. - The appropriate holy name of God pecul iar to this Psalm is Eel
which is, great, strong God, and the letters are found in the words: Eel, verse
3, and lezur, verse 1 .

The pious bel iever shou ld pray this Psalm for his erring and unbel ieving
brethren.

PSALM 96 and 97. - The holy name of these two Psalms is Jah, and the letters
of the first are found in the words, J eschuato, verse 2, and Hawn, verse 7, and

soever wi ll pray these two Psa lms three times dai ly, will cause his family
great joy and contentment.

PSALM 98.- The holy name of this Psalm is also Jah, and should be pro
nounced in order to establ ish peace and unity between fam il ies. The letters
of the holy 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 to become really pious are advised to pray it often with proper devotion.

PSALM 1 00. - The holy name J ah, so often mentioned already, is also appro
priate to this Psalm, and whoever prays it several days successively seven
times, will overcome all his enem ies. The letters of this holy name are re
corded in verse 3, and in Aetodah, verse 4.

PSALM 1 0 1 . - 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 vindictive persons.

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 God. 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 s in.

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

ascribed, and according to the original writi ng, it is said, that the 105th Psalm
w ill cure three days' fever; and finally the praying of the 107th w ill 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 fin ally 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 God), 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 1 11 . - 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 1 1 1 t h Psalm a man may acqu ire many friends
without the necessity of keeping constantly in mind any special holy name.

PSALM 1 1 2 and 1 1 3 . - 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 1 1 4 . - 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
2. If you desire success in your trade or business, write this Psalm with its
appropriate holy name upon cle a n parchment, and carry it about your per
son constantly in a small bag prepared espec ially for this purpose.

PSALM 1 1 5 . - I f you are determ ined to dispute with infidels, heretics, and
scoffers at religion, pray this Psalm devoutly beforehand.

PSALM 11 6.- Whoever prays this Psalm daily with devotion, trusting fully in
God, will be safe from violent death, neither will he be overtaken by a sudden
death.

PSALM 1 1 7 . - Did you make a vow to obtain a certain commandment or

perform a good work, and fail in the performance of them through forgetful
ness or carelessness, as soon as you recollect your remissness pray this Psa lm
with a broken and contrite heart.

PSALM 1 1 8 . - I f you pray this Psalm often and devoutly, you w ill be able to
si lence all free-thinkers, scoffers of reli gion and heretics, who labor to lead
you astray.

PSALM 1 1 9 . - 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 fu lfill, 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 w ill be of interest to the reader to know the
meaning of them, it will 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

painful injury of the left eye can be cured in the first place, in the same

without inju ry to yourself.

his body, to drink of it, and he will soon find re lief.

T E T H . - The division of the letter Teth, verses 65 to 72, is an easy, qu ick

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

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

ing the help of the judge of all judges, to enl ighten their minds.

in the same manner as the division of the letter Resh, that is, it shou ld b e

spoken
over onion-water, and by its use a boil in the left ear may be cu red.

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 w ill be interested in this matter.)

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

K IN G JA ME S VERS ION
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.
