SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 1rst Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה‎) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

THE ABSOLUTE GOODNESS

The Creator Is the Absolute Goodness
And because we realize that the Creator is, in
and of Himself, complete and needs no one
to help Him to completion, since He precedes
everything, it is therefore clear that He does
not have any will to receive. And because He
has no will to receive, He is fundamentally
devoid of a desire to harm anyone; it is as
simple as that.
Furthermore, it is completely agreeable
to our mind as the first concept, that He possesses
a desire to bestow goodness upon others,
meaning to His creatures. And that is evidently
shown by the great Creation that He has created
and set before our eyes. For in this world
there are beings that necessarily experience
either a good feeling or a bad one, and that
feeling necessarily comes to them from the Creator.
And once it is absolutely clear that there
is no aim to harm in the nature of the Creator,
it necessitates that the creatures receive only
goodness from Him, for He has created them
only to bestow upon them.
Thus we learn that He has only a desire
to bestow goodness, and it is utterly impossible
that any harmfulness might be in His domain,
which could emit from Him. Hence we
have defined Him as “The Absolute Good.”

Psalms Chapter 68 תְּהִלִּים

ט  אֶרֶץ רָעָשָׁה, אַף-שָׁמַיִם נָטְפוּ–    מִפְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים:
זֶה סִינַי–    מִפְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים, אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.

9 The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God; {N}
even yon Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
