“I will rejoice in God. Chata’ im (Sinners) will cease from the earth.” (Psalms 104:34-35)
Behold, it is known that whatever lack a person experiences stems from the Shattering [of the Vessels], on account of which the sparks [of holiness] fell and were subtracted from the Divine Presence.
A person can rectify this by rejoicing in his God. Then, all that was lacking due to the Shattering is made whole and all the sparks ascend.
This is: I will rejoice in God—[By rejoicing in God,]
Chata’im will cease—that is, all lack will be made whole, as it is written (1 Kings 1:21), “my son Shlomo and I will be [deemed] chata’im.”
from the earth—This alludes to the exalted “earth,” the Divine Presence.
