- Rabbi Nechunya ben Hakkana would offer a brief prayer when he entered the study hall and when he left.
- [His disciples/students] asked him: "What is the purpose of this prayer?"
- He told them: "Upon my entrance, I pray that nothing harmful should happen because of me [incorrectly rendering halachic decisions];
- and upon my departure, I offer thanksgiving for my portion."
