The following is a pshat from the Vilna Gaon
??? ?????? ???? ????, ????? ??????? ??????, ??????? ?? ???? ?? ?????.
Each one of these middos has incorporates two things.
???? has within it ?? , one whose mouth and heart are working together towards evil. and ???? which is when one speaks good but their heart has other ideas.
????? has within it ?????, meaning the body derives enjoyment and ???? when the nefesh desires even without the guf deriving pleasure.
???? (The ???? which is in our Mishna) has within it ??? when one thinks one way about themselves, but the world is in disagreement. And ???? when one wishes to rule over people due to their ????
Therefore, we end our Shmoneh Esrei with the following request:
??-????. ???? ???????? ????? – This is for protection from ???
???????? ????????? ??????? – from ???????
????????????? ???????? ????? – from ???
?????????? ???????? ????? ???????? – Like dust, the opposite of ????
?????? ?????? ??????????? – Against ????, since Torah is the opposite of ?????
?????????????? ???????? ???????? – Against ????, since the more our nefesh is chasing mitzvos, the less room there is going to be for ???? (our nefesh chasing other things).
