Hebrew translation:

371. וַאֲנִי, חֲבֵרִים, בְּאוֹתָהּ שָׁעָה שֶׁהִסְתַּלַּקְתִּי מֵהָעוֹלָם, רוּחִי עָלְתָה וְנִרְדְּמָה מִיָּד, עַד שָׁעָה קַלָּה שֶׁהֶחֱיָנִי הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא וְהַגּוּף הָיָה מֵת. בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁפָּתַח בְּנִי בְּאוֹתָם דְּבָרִים, אָז פָּרְחָה נִשְׁמָתוֹ (נִשְׁמָתִי), וּפָגְשָׁה בְנִשְׁמָתִי שֶׁהָיְתָה עוֹלָה מִתּוֹךְ טָהֳרָה וּמִתּוֹךְ טְבִילָה, וְנִכְנְסָה בְמָקוֹם שֶׁנִּכְנְסָה, וְשָׁם דָּנוּ אֶת דִּינָהּ, וְנִתְּנוּ לִי עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁתַּיִם שְׁנוֹת חַיִּים בִּגְלַל דִּמְעוֹת וְדִבְרֵי בְנִי. מִכָּאן וָהָלְאָה יֵשׁ לִי לְהִשְׁתַּדֵּל בְּמַה שֶּׁרָאִיתִי, שֶׁהֲרֵי אֵין לִי לְהִשְׁתַּדֵּל בְּדִבְרֵי הָעוֹלָם הַזֶּה. כֵּיוָן שֶׁרָאִיתִי מַה שֶּׁרָאִיתִי, וְרוֹצֶה הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא שֶׁלֹּא יֹאבַד וְיִשָּׁכַח מִמֶּנִּי כְּלוּם.
372. פָּתַח וְאָמַר, (תהלים קיח) יַסֹּר יִסְּרַנִּי יָּהּ וְגוֹ’. דָּוִד הַמֶּלֶךְ אָמַר אֶת זֶה עַל כָּל מַה (שֶׁעָבַר) שֶּׁעָשָׂה בְּזֶה הָעוֹלָם, וְאָמַר עַל הַהַבְטָחָה שֶׁהָיְתָה לוֹ בְּאוֹתוֹ עוֹלָם. עַל כָּל מַה שֶּׁעָבַר בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה, שֶׁרָדְפוּ אוֹתוֹ, וְהָיָה (לוֹ) בּוֹרֵחַ בְּאֶרֶץ נָכְרִיָּה, בְּאֶרֶץ מוֹאָב וּבְאֶרֶץ פְּלִשְׁתִּים, וּמִכֻּלָּם הִצִּילוֹ הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא וְלֹא הִשְׁאִירוֹ לָמוּת, וְאָמַר עַל הַהַבְטָחָה שֶׁל אוֹתוֹ הָעוֹלָם.

Zohar Balak
Continued from previous DZ
#371
Rabbi Yossi continues to share his death experience.
At the same time that I departed from the world, my spirit left my body and died immediately until, after a short hour, the Holy One, Blessed be He, revived me.
When my son opened with these words, his soul flew out of his body and met with my soul, rising with purity after its cleansing, and entered a certain place. My soul was judged and was given twenty-two years of life because of my son’s tears and speech.
From now on, I have to strive for what I have seen. For I no longer have to focus on the things of this world since I have seen what I have seen, and the Holy One, Blessed be He, wants me not to lose or forget anything I have experienced.

#372
Psalm 118:18
“יַסֹּר יִסְּרַנִּי יָּהּ וְלַמָּוֶת לֹא נְתָנָנִי.”
“YH has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death.”
King David said it for all that he had done in this world and for the confidence he had in that world.
“He has not given me over to death” for all he went through in this world. He was persecuted and fled to foreign lands, Moab and the land of the Philistines. The Holy One, Blessed be He, saved him from all, and did not leave him to die. He said this to express his certainty in the eternal world.

Lesson;
King David tells us that even though his life was hard and challenging, he kept complete certainty and accepted the process. He knew that he would not die in the end, meaning that he would be resurrected to immortality.

Keeping certainty that the process and the pain we go through in this world is just, we will get to the final redemption. We accept the pain in this world, and even if we leave it with some uncorrected flaws, it would be cleansed above to prepare us for the Resurrection and immortality. Without this faith, there will be no redemption for the soul.
