כְּתִיב וּבֵרַכֲךָ ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר תַּעֲשֶׂה
It is written: “G‑d, your L‑rd, will bless you in all that you do.”
הָאָדָם עָלָיו רַק לַעֲשׂוֹת כְּלִי לְפַרְנָסָתוֹ
A person only needs to make a vessel for his livelihood,
וּלְהִשְׁתַּדֵּל בְּכָל כֹּחוֹ אֲשֶׁר הַכְּלִי יִהְיֶה טָהוֹר מִכָּל סִיג וּפְסוֹלֶת דְּאוֹנָאָה כו
and should make every effort that it be pure of any trace of deception, etc.,
הַיְינוּ שֶׁיִּהְיֶה הַכֹּל עַל פִּי דִּינֵי הַתּוֹרָה
so that in every respect it accords with the laws of the Torah.
אֲשֶׁר אָז הוּא כְּלִי רָאוּי לַבְּרָכָה הָעֶלְיוֹנָה בִּשְׁנַיִם
It will then be a fit receptor for sublime blessings in two ways:
פַּרְנָסָה בְּרֶיוַח
his livelihood will be ample,
וַאֲשֶׁר הַפַּרְנָסָה תֵּלֵךְ לַמָּקוֹם הָרָאוּי
and it will be directed toward the proper place.
